My first 2600 game.
Pitfall was my first realization that games can be more interesting and persistent than something like Space Invaders.
1-on-1 karate action. When my dad sold the C64, I cried.
This was my dad's substitute for Karate Champ, but it was on an IBM PC with CGA graphics (cyan, magenta, black, & white). It was an inferior game system, but I ended up liking Karateka a lot.

My first flight sim.

Probably my first exposure to an RPG? We had the Sega Master System, but this game was actually owned by a friend.
Likely my first fun experience in a co-op game (at home at least).
