How old were you when you first started gaming?

[Accursed Entity]

I hated the light boy. I preferred the light adapter Made life easier when I was gaming under the covers pretending to "sleep".

 

LOL Was a lot better than the Light Boy, that's true. I just didn't like to have anything above the screen.

 It should be a poll so that interested members of the community can quickly see at what age others have started playing video games instead of scrolling through pages and pages of this thread. I mean don#t get me wrong it's funny to read but if somebody votes on a poll he most likeley is also going to comment. So no worries there.

around 5 or 6, maybe you guys remember the pinball game for windows xp.

This makes me feel so ooold.

 

My first gaming experience was on Christmas day in 1996, with Super Mario All Stars (it had about 4 Mario games on one cartridge) for the SNES.

5 years old, started playing Castlevania: Symphony of the night on Playstation 1, I didn't start PC gaming till some time later (Around 8 or so)

About 5 (or nearly), when my parents had first gotten me a Nintendo DS Litle (the one that still had GameBoy compaiblity) wth two GameBoy cartidges (DragonBall and Duel Masters; I think). Still, to tis day, I haven't completed them, but it was all uphill from there.  :wub:

I was born in 97, i still feel like a 10 year old.

[Midnight Robot]

I was 3-4 and I played Wolfenstein... lol. What's even better is I ended up playing the new Wolfenstein that just came out, and discovered the original Wolfenstein is a minigame in the new one. I kind of lost my mind when I found out and was way more excited than I should have been.

[Nacho588425]

The first time I played something I was 3, but the first gaming device I had was a PC when I was 5
