We didn't have a lot of video games growing up. My parents preferred us to read and play outside and all that jazz. When I was 12 (2002) my brother and I bought a nintendo 64 with a bunch of games (zelda oot, starfox 64, super smash bros, diddy kong racing, mario kart, and a couple others) from one of our friends. He used to play zelda and I would read the little book and tell him what he needed to do to beat the bosses or get through the temple. Then I would go and find every spider and heart piece and stuff in that area. It was super fun.
Before that we had a NES that my cousin had given us but it only had tetris, tennis, and super mario bros. We played that occasionally but there is only so many times you can beat Super Mario Bros before it gets boring. We used to lay on our backs and play it upside down to make it more fun. If you put me in front of Super Mario Bros I can still beat it in about 10 minutes on one life. I don't even think about it, my fingers just know how to do it.
