When I was around 4 or 5 years old, my parents got my sister and I a Super NES to share, along with a few TV show/ movie games, and two Mario games (Yoshi's Island and Super Mario All-Stars) to grow on. I eventually received an N64 for my birthday and continued to grow on that. Once I grew older and more aware of the video games offered, I looked around at my choices. There were either fun games that anyone can enjoy or violent games that are mostly about violence (which is the main reason I stuck with Nintendo/ Mario & Luigi games). I decided to stay close to what I knew best. And here I am today, a Mario/ Nintendo fanatic and loving it.
