Wow, I am trying to think hard about this one. I believe my first was on a Tandy1000 computer... not sure if the game was called pogo but you were basically a guy on a pogostick and had to jump over holes etc. You would advance up a level (and by missing a jump, fall down until you landed on a ledge, and that was the level you started back on).

Most memorable games:
Super Mario (spent hours on the stairs with the turtles).
Contra (Is it even possible without the cheat code? [and yes I still remember it]).
Zelda (I don't remember ever beating the second world?! I must have though for the amount of time spent...).
Metroid (Hours upon hours on this game... Still one of my favorites)
