Wow, you were wittle. ;P I was 10 when it came out, but we didn't even get an N64 'til I was 13.
Heheh...we came up with nicknames for all the characters. Let's see...
Toad: Fungus
Peach: Fruit Cake
Bowser: Lard Cow
Mario: Pasta Breath
Wario: Fatty
DK: Monkey Butt
Can't remember Luigi's, and Yoshi didn't have one. (Of course not; he's my favorite! ^_~ (and my bro's second fave--well, in this game, anyway. Normally it's DK.))

Deep inside us all is a little green elf telling us to burn things.
