The first memory I have ever seeing a game was watching my older brother play The Illusion of Gaia on SNES. He would rage so so hard in the Mayan temple level. I tried playing but I really didn't understand anything as I was probably 6 or 7. I still own the game tho and I love it!
I also remember the day he brought home Asheron's Call for PC. This was the first MMO I was exposed to and entire reason I love the MMORPG genre so much. I remember we used some database app that had a list of all the spells and potions and all of their reagents. We printed the entire thing off in a bound booklet so we could access the content easier haha. I miss AC!

My earliest gaming memory would be watching my dad play games like B17 Bomber on his Intellivision. While I remember trying to play the Intellivision myself, I was too young to actually comprehend the goals of the games and just moved around and died. My first real experience with gaming where I could actually play the game would be when I got an NES in the early 90's playing Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt.

James Pond on Amiga 600!
My sister's boyfriend at the time just got a ps1, so he gave me his Amiga and a huge stack of floppy discs. I probably only played 10% of them!
I recently asked my mum what happened to the console, but neither of us know.
That was around 1998 if I remember correctly so I was around 6 or 7. Man I'll never forget how much joy that console brought me.

Yoshi's Story I remember loving how they used alternative graphics, and since then I have been in love with pretty much any game that looks "different." (My favorite games are Okami and Windwaker xD)
