So what was your first fighting game?

Like most, mine was vanilla legit Street Fighter 2 arcade. Then I got into SF2:CE rainbow hack when I was 10 and picking M.Bison doing psycho crushers by tapping back forward and Fierce Punch. Shortly after, I ran into a legit non-hack SF2:CE and picked M.Bison to do the Psycho Crusher. "Why is he just punching? This machine is broken." Keep in mind, this was during a time when I used only Fierce Punch and Roundhouse Kick because they were the strongest and all the other buttons were just stupid.

First serious fighter I got into was when I was 10 and played Samurai Shodown 1. It was awesome because there was never a line and always just one quarter whereas SF2 always had a line and sometimes cost 2 quarters. Then SamSho II came out and people caught on.

My aunt gave me Rise of the Robots for the SNES. I remember playing it for the first time and thinking "Wow, this plays... different."
