Ms. Pac Man. Because I play a Tetris clone for free on my phone.
It's the Ms. It's ALWAYS the Ms. Actually, I got to be quite proficient at the arcade game of both Pac Man and the Ms. that resided (not at the same time) at the store I worked in in the 1980s. But I was better at the Ms.
I never got into either. I would sulk because space invaders was not available.

Tetris. It was actually one of the few video games I could tolerate playing for more than a few minutes. (And I'm pretty low-tech; I don't have a version of it on my phone or anywhere else.)
Tetris. I've been addicted to it since the old days of Windows 1.0.
Tetris because I was deprived (or oblivious) to the non-arcade versions of it (except for the Wartburg days).
