Probably space invaders on the Atari 2600
I didn't have an Atari new I believe it was already an old system when me and my sister got it.
I remember playing this at a friend's house. It had a satisfying kind of physicality to it, with the shields, and the march of three invaders. It made other games of the era seem floatier
Oh and you just reminded me asteroids as well!
That game holds up! A local arcade has an original cabinet and it's like nothing else available right now. The clarity of the vector display and the smoothness of the movement... just incredible.
You're making me nostalgic my friend!
