First NES game played

[Mr.FoodMonster]

Well, the first NES game I ever played was Contra at my Uncles house. Whenever we went over there, I would play the hell out of it, until I got my own NES. I ever told him 'The Code', I dont remember how I found it out then (Early 90's) but I loved using it.

I can bet that everyones answers will be Mario, but I'm still intrested.

My first NES exposure was prior to the NES' domestic release with their NES-based arcade games, stuff like Excitebike and Hogan's Alley. The Chuck E. Cheese I went to back then was owned by Nintendo so they had almost every Nintendo arcade game. Good times.

my first nes game I owned was section z. played the hell out of it. first game I ever played on it is lost to me as I didnt own it, wasnt at a friends house, but was a store display at wal-mart. friend owned hydlide though. hated that game.

Super Mario Bros.

I was doing pretty bad at first. I couldn't get past the second pit in level 1-1. About an hour or so later, I finally figured out how to run and jump. I was 6 years old and pretty inexperienced with video games at the time, as the NES was my first console.

Mine was Super Mario Bros. Ahhh...remembering such simple times brings some great memories. I remember getting up at 4am when I got my NES to play it, lol.

Actually, besides Super Mario Bros., I played Gauntlet at one of my friend's house. It was espically fun, considering that he owned a multitap. Ah...

"Red Warrior has shot the food."

[Bratwurst]

Gauntlet at a K-Mart kiosk. Later on I got to try several more games at my cousin's, Super Mario Bros., Contra, Cobra Triangle, Pac-Man.

Kung Fu

I think it was Super Mario Bros. set up in a K-Mart, right by the checkout (!). This was in 1987; I didn't actually get one until 1990, while I had chicken pox. My mom actually picked up Metroid for me at a garage sale prior to me getting one-she had good taste

[joshnickerson]

Super Mario Bros, in 1986, when I was six years old. Bowser scared the hell out of me.

Contra or Blades of steel

[Dr. Morbis]

The first NES/Nintendo game i ever played was Goonies 1 on a Playchoice-10 in a Mac's store by my house. This was the selection that the PC-10 had:

-Castlevania
-SMB
-Goonies
-Excitebike
-Pro Wrestling
-Contra
-Kung Fu
-Rush 'N Attack
-Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!
-Rad Racer

I must have sunk enough quarters in that machine to single-handedly pay it off for the store owner. I was soooooo hooked. Look at that selection!

Super Mario Bros.-what else?

[Bunnibear]

The first NES game that I ever played was R.C. Pro Am. My sisters and I received the system and game for Christmas. We stayed up until 2 A.M., long past our bedtime, playing it that night. Our parents caught us and grounded us from the NES for 2 weeks

[kainemaxwell]

Super Mario Bros at someone's house. Did really badly too.

[Ruudos]

I think it was Super Mario Bros., but could have been Duck Hunt too.
I still remember watching TV when my oldest brother came in the room and said to me to have a look upstairs.
