With my own money I think it was Final Fantasy X.

Mortal Kombat for the Sega Genesis. I was sure I would get that release day. I think it was a Monday. Then buddy that worked at Circus World Toys called me the night before "We got them in and each employee can buy 1 copy." Whoever worked evening shift didnt want a copy. So he grabbed one for me. Only game I know for sure I got before it's street date.

The day it came out??? Something like NHL 2006. Which doesn’t help you determine anything other than I bought a hockey game.

I've never been a release date buying kind of guy, but I may have gotten Final Fantasy 3 for the SNES right when it came out.

While I don't think that my dad ever bought my brother and I games on launch day, the closest we came was Super Mario 3. My brother and I wouldn't have known about it if not for seeing it in "The Wizard".

My answer won't reflect my age, but I think it's Super Mario Advance 4.
I think the oldest game I got that was fairly close to it's release day was Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

My brother and I wouldn't have known about it if not for seeing it in "The Wizard". I didn't get a NES until July of 1990, I was born in '86, but I distinctly remember my dad running around town checking every store to get a copy of SMB 3 that summer. Wasn't for me really, I was 4. I was happy with SMB 1 and Duck Hunt, but man oh man did dad want Mario 3. Think we finally got a copy around September.

I think Half Life 2, but that will be very misleading

Like physically went to the store and got it day one and not on Christmas? Probably Pokemon Ruby.

When I start playing video games, I started with SEGA. I only remember playing Vectorman 2 but I played a decade or so after it came out. So, the oldest game I played the day it came out was Ben 10: Protector of Earth for PS2.
