I'll go first then.in the early nineties when I was 8 I finished super probotector with my father on hard.contra to the USA. I was his back up😂killing the final brain boss with my dad was buzzing.played on mini snes and didn't realise how tough it was.👍anyone else got a good memory?great to here them👍
I have fond memories of the NES Knight Rider game. My mother loves cars and sci fi so she was a fan of the show and racing games (racing isn't my cup of tea unless on a motorcycle personally) but she played that game all the time. I would sit on my bed and read a book while she sat at the foot of it and played Knight Rider for an hour or two. I went and re purchased that game when I replaced my NES last year, just so she can play when she visits.

I spent a lot of time playing 3DS games with my family when that system was younger. Easily spent 100+ hours doing co-op gameplay on Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Fantasy Life with them.
As a child, I spent a lot of frustrating evenings with a friend playing Thrilla's Surfari. Anyone else remember this?
@Ralizah My brother and I played the original T&C Surf Designs all the time! At least the skateboarding part. The surfing part was impossible. I didn't even know there was a second one.
Although I grew up on the NES, probably my best memory was when the N64 came out I would walk down to the Blockbuster about 2-3 blocks from our house every day after school to play Mario 64 on their kiosk, until my parents got me an N64 and Mario for Christmas. Best Christmas ever.
@ryobi85 and the game still looks and plays great today. The games sound track is amazing and every stage has memorable music. Streets of rage and outrun on the mega drive are high up my list too.
We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.
Earthbound. I didn’t have many friends at my prep middle school when the game came out, so I latched onto the friendship theme of the game and was hooked. And I didn’t get into all the other rpgs of the time, Earthbound’s modern settings and such made it more relatable. Still waiting on those fools in Fourside to finish their meeting and release Mother 3 in the west 😂

Super Mario 64 was my jam when I was much younger. I remember getting excited every time I unlocked more stages by getting enough stars - it felt quite rewarding! Had that same feeling whenever I unlocked a new character or stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee, too.
I also remember unwrapping my GameCube back in Christmas 2001 - complete with Luigi's Mansion and Super Smash Bros. Melee - and I could barely contain myself. Me and my brother played the heck out of those two games and it was good times indeed. I recall being blown away by Melee's opening the first time I saw it too! Later on, when we were about to rent Sonic Adventure 2 Battle around the time it came out, my dad said something along the lines of "hey, that's on Sega." I was like, "no I'm serious, it's a GameCube game!" I've always wanted to play Sonic games, but we didn't have any Sega consoles, so that was exciting for me to have a Sonic game on a Nintendo console for the first time.
From the ages of 16-18 nearly every Friday/Saturday night (work permitting) it was 4 player N64 Goldeneye/Mario Kart 64/Perfect Dark/F-Zero X at mine. Order 4 pizzas, 4 bottles of Dr Pepper and played from about 7-12 (til my parents kicked my friends out!)
Aside from that on my own it was Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask Resident Evil 2, Banjo Kazooie, Mario 64, Shadows of the Empire and Pokemon Red on Gameboy that took up a lot of time. Then on the GameCube it was Rouge Leader and the resident Evil games and then on the Wii it was putting hundreds (!) of hours into Monster Hunter Tri (which I got free with a subscription to Official Nintendo Magazine). Im so happy that Monster Hunter World on my Xbox One is so similar but an improvement over Tri.
I got back into the GameCube in a big way in 2012, collected a lot of the games I hadn’t played a decade before. 100%-ing Super Mario Sunshine, completing Zelda:Twilight Princess and Luigi’s Mansion and Wind Waker was great fun.
Now my son has started showing an interest in games we have recently worked our way through the remakes of Castle of Illusion, Ducktales Remastered, Chip n’ dale Rescue Rangers most of Banjo Kazooie and have made a start on Wind Waker HD.
‘You swapped three different N64 games for Pokemon Stadium? Where’s your pride? Your dignity?!?
@MarioLover92 I have to say mario 64 and mario kart 64 blew me away at the time.I had the same feeling!also the music in the castle when your choosing which painting to jump into.👍

@ryobi85 that might have been Goof Troop (not sure the system or game but that was the cartoon series that was on in the early 90s). BTW you mentioned playing at the White Rose Centre. If that’s the one outside Leeds then that’s where I bought several N64 games back in the day (I remember Resident Evil 2, FzeroX and Star Wars Episode 1 Racer were some of the ones I bought there; Game was doing a few double packs which were basically buy one; get one free. Pretty sure I got FzeroX with a Formula 1 game of some sort (doubtless I traded it in quite quickly as I don’t remember playing it much!)

It's hard to pick just one memory. My earliest memories of video games were of my father playing NES games and that was back when I was so young that I can't quite place it. When I was about 6 I used to play the game boy owned by one of the older kids at the baby sitter/day care place my parents left me at regularly. It was for that reason I begged my parents for one of my own, which I got when I was in 1st grade and still own 2 decades later.
I remember being a little older and playing N64 games at my cousin's house on their "gigantic" TV. In 2019 a 60 inch is big but not super remarkable anymore - but in 2000 it was still mind blowing to me! Mario Kart 64 on a big TV like that!
I got the Game Boy Advance for Christmas and opened a GBA game first. I was happy/sad because I didn't have a GBA to play the game, and then I realized that the second, larger present had to be the GBA, which it was, which I spent almost the entire day playing!
I could go on and on honestly. Nintendo is where the majority of my gaming memories lie. From NES and Game Boy right on to Switch.
