First game you ever beat?

[Chevywolf30]

What was the first game that you ever played all the way through? Mine is Super Mario Bros 3, on the classic NES. My grandparents have one from my mom's childhood, and I just sat down at it one afternoon, next thing I realize it's supper time and I finished the game. I was like 14....

hmm, that's quite a dig into my memory

I really can't remember, so my answer would have to be Luigi's Mansion since that's an early game that I had that I was able to beat, like I had Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker before that but I wasn't able to beat those till a bit later

It's hard for me to remember and I think it was Super Mario 64.

New Super Mario Bros. on the DS, IIRC. It's been years since I last played it, but I think that was it.

For me it was Super Mario World on the SNES. I played the hell out of this one as a kid and loved exploring with friends to find new secret exits back in the time when I didn't have internet access at home.

Pokemon Crystal when I was 10, before that I only ever had edutainment computer games. I got stuck in Pokemon Red which is why I beat Crystal first.

Exact same answer here. I am definitely not sure, but as Super Mario 64 was my first game, I think it was also the first one I ever beat. But unsure

This is making me think I need to put Super Mario 64 on my list...

 

[Ronin]

Probably Star Fox 64.

I can't 100% remember, but I know I used to drop games as a kid all the time. I think I beat Midtown Madness 3 on X-Box, but if I didn't then it was probably Skyward Sword

Mine may have been Super Mario Bros 3 as well. It could have been that, Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, or Ocarina of Time. Link's Awakening I remember playing very young, but I didn't finish it until after I had finished Ocarina of Time. I was stuck on the second dungeon for many years not knowing that you needed magic to light a torch. I know for a fact that I beat Ocarina of Time in early 1999 after getting it for Christmas of 1998, but I don't know if I finished any of the other games mentioned first. I definitely played Super Mario Bros 3, Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, and Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island for multiple years before playing Ocarina of Time, but I could easily imagine myself getting stuck in various points in those games. For example I remember the snow level in Donkey Kong Country being a huge problem for me for a long time. Pokemon Yellow is another possibility - I think I got that shortly after release in 1998 and being able to grind experience makes it easier to beat than purely skill-based games.

The other games I played a lot but didn't finish for 15+ years were Goldeneye 007 and Donkey Kong Country 2. I did beat Goldeneye 007 on Agent and through Cradle on Secret Agent as a kid (I have a photo of myself playing Aztec in 1998 or 1999 - need to double check), but I don't count that as it's not the whole game.

Super Mario 64. The final Bowser boss battle was so hard for me as a kid. I remember I kept dying when the arena started to crumble into the shape of a star.

Wow! That was Satellite Attack on the videopac. That's ancient!

First game I think was 3d land
