My first controller was a paddle [Old School Gaming]

If your earliest gaming memories involve use of literally floppy disks, this thread is for you.

We got an Apple II+ when I was in 2nd grade. If there was a single constant influence throughout my childhood, it was computer games.

I wanted to show my seven-year-old what that kind of gaming looked like so I showed him one of the Apple II emulator sites. He was not impressed.
