I'm 6-7. I'm at my grandparents house. He's got one of those old-timey Pong consoles that you plug into the TV; it had like 5-6 different 'sport' modes (Tennis, Squash etc etc), but ultimately it was still a few pixels moving up and down or maybe left and right.

And it was amazing.

What's your earliest gaming memory?

Several educational PC games in the mid 90s mostly, which I guess technically count as gaming. I remember Super Mario Teaches Typing, and Math Blaster of course. But there was another one that had a top down view and you had to rescue animals with a helicopter or something. All I remember was that I liked the weird sound it would make when you lifted the animals up with the heli, or maybe it was the sound of the monkeys.

As for “real” games one of my earliest memories is getting dragged to a house for a dinner party and my brother and I would just hang out with their older son in his room playing floppy disk games. The only one I remember was Arkanoid.
