When I was little I always played little computer games like Jump Start 2nd Grade and such. But my first actual game system was a Gameboy Color, and I got Pokemon Blue. My mom got Pokemon Red and we traded our Pokemon and such.
But when I was 9 years old, my dad bought me... a Nintendo 64, with Super Mario 64 and a Star Wars racing game.
My mind, it was blown.
That's what reeeally got me into games. Super Mario 64 changed my effing life, I swear. It's still one of my favorite games, and it's the game that I'm best at playing, I think. That and Pokemon.
