Well, let's see here, we can break this down into several categories...

Family systems (we all played)
Comadore 64 - game I most remember playing was F-16 Combat Pilot (flight sim), though my brother would sometimes write simple programs found in 3-2-1-Contact
Atari/Coleco - always liked Coleco games better  Ladybug was so much better than Pacman, and let's not forget games like Pepper2, Millipede, and Mousetrap.
Later on my Mom bought a Playstation.  Xenogears was the awesome.

Systems my brother owned
NES
Lynx
Gamegear
Genesis
Saturn
PS1&2

Systems I owned
Gameboy (original green screen, ftw)
Gamegear
SNES
BGA & GBASP
Gamecube
and of course the computer

Yeah, I don't talk about my experience gaming on a computer much do I? I guess cause I don't see it as an actual game system. But I've been gaming on computers off and on since elementary school, probably as early as 1st or 2nd grade. I used to play on the Apple 2e's all the time. Later on my uncle got one and I played on it when I was allowed, even though they weren't all that "game-y" compared to today's games. :p

I also gamed on Macs later on. Stuff like Carmen Sandiego and the like.

Later I'd get my own computer and that really opened it up though. Kings Quest, Doom, Monkey Island, etc.. I had a lot of good times on the computer. Still do, but I don't have a very strong one so current day games are kinda hard to play...

OREGON TRAIL!

umm, yeah just got a nostalgia wave. those games you had to play in elementary school during computer class after your projects or assignments were done.

I remember a load of myst-like games that were black and white, and oregon trail. old old oldskool sim city.

I also remember playing Trogdor and Stinkoman on Homestarrunner after my assignments were done back then.  But even before the Internet even existed, I often played movie-based PC games.  (That PC Emperor's New Groove game I received as a gift from a friend in third grade was actually pretty good, I even still play it once in a while for the memories.)  But in terms of computer gaming, I've been gaming since I was five or six years old.  And at the age of three I often watched my dad play Tomb Raider.
