Do handhelds count? If so, probably my Dungeons and Dragons handheld or Puck-Man tabletop.
If no, then probably the Donkey Kong pack-in with my Colecovision.
What is the oldest video game in your collection?
Re: What is the oldest video game in your collection?
I have some Atari 2600 carts somewhere in my house. I guess they're from 1983.

Re: What is the oldest video game in your collection?
I don't know what happened to the Atari 2600 I once had and the games I had for it. Probably gone in a garage sale. My oldest games are probably some NES titles I still have. I lost a bunch of those in garage sales, though I never had that many to begin with as I use to rent a lot of games when I was a kid. I still have cartridges for Ninja Gaiden 1 and maybe 2. I need to double check that. I also have the original Zelda and the original Final Fantasy. I have a CIB copy of Mega Man. It's probably not the original print run though, but I'm not sure

The oldest would be my Atari Touch Me handheld from 1978 if that counts. It's technically a single video game.

I used to have one of those. They're pretty fun, actually.

Actually I have one of those Football handhelds somewhere as well, but it had a dark shell instead of a light one. I wonder if that's actually older than the Touch Me handheld or if it was a later version of Football. But yeah, moving those blips is a lot more fun than you might think.

Re: What is the oldest video game in your collection?

I have this with the box, which my Grandfather was kind of enough to give me. I believe that would come in as the oldest piece in my game collection (1978.)
Next up would be two Game & Watch pieces: Mario Bros. and Lifeboat. They were both released in 1983.
