I believe my first gaming experience was with Wii Play
I think the shooting gallery, charge and tanks were my favourite mini-games
Heh, the Shooting gallery in Wii Play. The very first NES game I could've played was Duck Hunt, until it got to my turn and the youth club helper changes the game from Duck Hunt to Super Mario Bros. I was annoyed because I would've loved to fire the zapper, but playing Super Mario Bros was the thing that really got me into gaming for good.
It was a game of death with a hungry timber wolf...I'll never forget it, the snow falling silently amongst the birch trees, my breath and it's dancing upon the cold air. I felt a sense of kinship with the beast even though our survival relied upon extinguishing the life of the other. I gripped the small knife my father had given me, even though I could no longer feel my hands...and well, after that, I still bear the scars...it's pelt has hung over my fireplace for many a winter.

After that, oh probably Donkey Kong arcade.
Nice story! ;D
Made me think of this one old Japanese-only arcade game called Yosaku the Lumberjack, where you have to cut down trees, whilst hiding behind said trees when boars start to chase after you, avoid getting pine cones hitting your head, and avoid getting bitten by snakes.
My parents opened up a bank payment account (in the seventies), as a present they gave an atari console for every new customer. In that time i was 2 years old, playing pong on that console with a spinner. It had several games but pong was by far my favorite.
I could've sworn I made a post in a thread like this and then sure enough I'm on page 2 of this thread with a post. I will add a bit more after reading that post again though. Most of the stuff in that post was from when I was between around 7 and 13. I'm sure I was playing games of some description before then but it's pretty hard to remember stuff from when you were that young. And even if you do it all blends together a bit
But there is a family story of me being around 4 and being utterly transfixed by a game of some description. One of those storeys my Mum liked to drag out for that "we always knew what you were going to do" bits. I have no idea what that game was but Super Mario Bros is probably as good a guess as any
I also remember my brother having one of these that he'd well and truly grown out of (he's 10 years older than me) but when I was little I thought it was pretty cool. This would've been floating around the house well before we got a PC or Master System. Certainly before I got my Gameboy:

An opinion is only respectable if it can be defended. Respect people, not opinions
That I was aware of and/or played? It's a forgetfulness-induced tie between Super Mario World, Sonic 1 for the Master System and Castle of Dr. Brain.
That I have actually owned? Donkey Kong Country. Along with Mortal Kombat II and Batman Forever.
I believe it was "New Super Mario Brothers" on the DS or Mario Tennis advanced on the GBA.
Go Mario lol
Space and Games are similar. Space is endless and new stuff is out there waiting to be discovered. Games are always being made but the creativity is different from one game to another and so many more ideas still haven't been imagined or created yet. (That came out better than expected lol)
My first game was either MarioKart Wii, or Wii Sports. I am not sure which....
After those two, NSMBW, then Mario Sports Mix, then Disney Universe. And then... A lot of games!
Everything that has ever happened, there was once a time where it hadn't happened yet. And at that time, people might have been, like, "Yeah, but that's never happened." And then it happened. And once it's happened, you're, like, "Well, now it's happened."
