My first introduction to the genre was not SimCity, but a little-known game for the Colecovision called Fortune Builder which predates SC by at least five years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-dW1ztOxH0 It’s a bit different in that you’re not running a city per se, but a business. So you’re laying down factories and resorts and toll booths and a bunch of other money making poo poo in an effort to make the most cash. I think there’s a certain amount you have to get to “win” the game. You can also play 2 player where you compete on the same map. I was like 5 years old when I would play this at a friend’s house and my biggest memory was that I would always build a bunch of arcades everywhere and the parents would get pissed off and shut them down.

I don’t know if it’s intentional or a glitch, but if you build a single water pump for your city and then don’t build anything around it in an adjacent square except for a power line giving it power, and don’t build any more pumps or pipes, the game will never bug you about water. I did this every time I played and only recently learned that your zones are still limited in their growth if they don’t have water, all this does is remove the complaining.
