I believe it was Alex Kidd in Miracle World and that was the master system 2.

I had the sega master system with the alex the kid built in, it was addictive. I still remember all the sicknesses I would have to fake to stay home from school so I could play it after I got it as a bday present

Sweet job Dwayne!

I had a Sinclare Spectrum +2 which took tapes to load games.

Then I 'upgraded' to a Commodore Amiga like this one (but I didn't have the monitor, only a green screen!)

I was the same as AJ, started with an Amstrad. I had to enter in the programs (type in codes line after line) just to play a sh*tty stick man game.

I fear I wouldn't be controlling Pac Man though, only giving him more dots...
