PONG. Back when it was still originally in marketing and circulation. What's not to love? Simple, straightforward, easy to figure out.

No age remarks from the peanut gallery ...

My answer as well. It was all we had. I bare;y even played it. I mostly watched demos of it at the OSCO.

My folks weren't into buying brand-name stuff, so we didn't get the classic Pong but a Sears or Monty-Ward knock-off but it had three games instead of one (singles, doubles, solo)

Did it have to be a home game? If so, Pong was probably (one of?) the first for me too. But I think I played Space Invaders at the arcade before that. (Do they even have arcades anymore? :-p )

Pac-Man. I played it on a portable Atari the size of my head, which I got for my 12th birthday.
