Anachiwo Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Some people actually start playing video games at a very young age. How old were you when you were introduced to playing video games? Mine was around the age of 6 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, that's so awesome to to have already started playing games so early. I was still too caught up with getting attached to my mother as a first child. The game was there but I never played at 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I started at the age of 4 in a cybercafé with the popular flash game "The Skull Kid", i'm 20 in the next month and still gaming and never regretted doing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anders Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I think the first game I remember playing was probably Sim Town on the PC. It was a simplified version of Sim City more aimed at kids. I must have been 5 or 6 at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I believe I was around 3 when I started playing. I don't remember officially what I played, but I think it was SMB3. I just know, because my mom and sister told me they got me into games early on. The first game that I owned and played was the first TMNT game. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntax Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I think I got my first console when I was maybe 8-9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staticradio725 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I played a few point-and-click PC games as a child, but I didn't really get into gaming or own a console until I was in college, when a friend introduced me to it. I really think there are a lot of video games franchises out there that are popular because people grew up playing them, and I've always sort of been locked out of the loop on that.

Jaiin13 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I clearly remember playing game boy color (I had the green one) in school when I was 5 or 6. I had probably played some simple pc game before, like Pinball or Solitaire haha but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyorAlice Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I think I was around 5 or 6 when I started playing my first video games. I was 5 or 6 when we got the NES and I've been a gamer ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
