Super Mario Brothers/Duck Hunt. I used to have a ton of Atari 2600 games, but my original 2600 and the 2600 Jr. I bought to replace it both broke. My parents ended up getting rid of all of my 2600 carts as well as my Virtual Boy when they moved... this still breaks my heart! Someone got lucky at the salvation army though.

Be prepared to be taken to school. Old school. Prehistoric school.

I've had games from before I was born.
My Father gave me his apf tv fun (1976) his 2600, and his collection of boxed Atari games, as early as I can possibly remember.

The game I've had longest is probably about a fifteen game tie. I got my uncle's old TI-9/4A sometime in about 1988, and still have all of the original games. I've had to replace the actual console, though, because at some point when I was young and didn't know any better, I accidentally hooked it up wrong and sent power to some pins that weren't supposed to receive power.

A partial list of those games:

Parsec (2 copies!)
TI Invaders
Munchman
Alpiner
Hustle
Pole Position
A-Maze-Ing
Hunt The Wumpus
Physical Fitness (Wii Fit is such a knock-off)
Typing Tutor
Tombstone City
Some cart with some dumb Simon-like mind games on it

And a couple of non-game carts.

OK, so not quite fifteen, but I think I'm probably forgetting something.

I sold off all my systems and games back in 2000 when I left school to help with paying for College. I only started buying them all back a couple of years ago but I did keep Disney's Aladdin for the Mega Drive that I got for Christmas 93.

This.

All my Atari 7800 and Master system stuff was sent to my cousin who had no games, and probably still resides in his closet unused.

Legend of Zelda - June of 88

Though if we count boardgames I was given a chess set in 84.

The longest game I have had is probably Sonic 2, then Aladdin, both for the Genesis. I forgot the year, but I'll estimate to maybe 1996.
But for games that still work, Megaman Legends for the PS1. 2000 something.

Wizard Of Wor for the 2600. I've had it since 83, 84 I think. I've also had my Virtual Boy since launch day. I wish I waited a couple of months for the huge price drop though. :(
