On this Day... Super Mario Bros. is launched!

On this day (September 13th) in 1985 the iconic Super Mario Brothers by Nintendo Entertainment Systems made their first appearance.


Which got me thinking...


Gaming has come such a long way in recent years but I still remember the first electronic game I played which was Atari's Pong back in the late 1970's. My favourite (and most addicted to cool) was Lemmings for the Commadore Amiga in the early 90's and then when smartphones came into being, I was one of the millions that downloaded the Angry Birds app (playing it endlessly on long flights or train journeys) and the mobile verson of Tetris (which I still play on occasion)


So tell me, what was your first computer game and what's your current or all time favourite? smiley

    Cool topic! It's quite difficult for me to remember the first game I ever played, one of the earliest that comes to mind is Prince of Persia for the Sega Master System, I must have been about 5.




    My all time favourite game is definitely The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The Zelda series goes way back and it's really cool seeing what it used to look like compared to what it looks like now. Very different styles of game play as well. Some of the older games are much more highly rated in terms of game play so it goes to show that graphics aren't everything.
