Tell me about the oldest save game you've got

So I was going through some old games and I came across my copy of Final Fantasy Tactics A2 for the DS. I fished out my 3ds, tried to boot it up, and after cleaning some old gunk off the connectors, managed to boot it up. What do I find but what must have been my original save game with about 204 hours of playtime on it. And that got me wondering, is it usual that people have save games that old? What does it say about me from 2008 (though I think I was probably playing it for years afterwards) that basically every character is a ninja who can be one? Who are all these unique characters that I don't remember? Why did I keep the default clan name but name the main character after someone from another game? Do all 400 slots in the quest report contain a quest, or are some empty? And if there are that many quests, how did I manage to play for more than a week of actual time and not even get to three quarters completion?
And I'm curious if other people have saved games on old systems (or their computers) from when they were teenagers or even younger. Dare you look into the depths of your past and see what the you of yesteryear wrought?

My friend is working on a roguelike game you can play if you want to. (It has free demo)

I finally found a save game for Freelancer, dated 2004. I might have something older hidden somewhere, but that's a reasonable first try. This was from a first playthrough that went all the way through the game. I think I got that game from a Gamestop/EBGames, back when they sold games.
For my second try, I booted up my Win98 computer that I keep around because that era has poor emulation. That gave me Jazz Jackrabbit ('99). I had files from both that game and the sequel, because I bought Jazz Jackrabbit 2 at a Fred Meyer and it came with the complete version of the first game, though the files from the first game were a year older; not sure why; I'm pretty sure I played JJ2 first. Maybe it was a save from the shareware version? Anyway, there was plenty of stuff from the '99-2000 era on there, with a scattering of stuff from '98, but no actual saves I could find for '98.

My The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening cart has all 3 save slots filled (and named Link as is proper). The first two have finished the game and the third has completed two dungeons. The death counter on the first save is 111.
The save battery in my Pokémon Gold cart must have died, because there's no save on it. I had completed the Pokédex.
Lol I wonder if my Boktai sun-collecting cartridge even works
but chances are strong somewhere in some box in my garage i still have a SNES cart from 91 or 92 that might still have its saves... like a Super Mario World or FF2
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
