Hello everyone. I have been watching the NLife news and forums for a few days and I like how the people here are kind and eager to share information despite not knowing too much about some topics. I started commenting 2 and half days ago.
My first console was a NES in which I mostly played Super Mario Bros, my first videogame. I was very little and ignorant so didn't know that I could buy more games for my console. Since that I got the NES in the SNES generation, I couldn't play many games from the NES because later my parents get me SNES and I sell my first console because I thought it was ok because I only had the game of Super Mario Bros + Ducks Hunt.
In the SNES I enjoyed playing many games, with Super Metroid, Megaman X and X2, Super Mario World, SM All Stars, Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2 becoming my favorite SNES games. About one or two years after that, I saw my aunt and my cousin playing in a Nintendo 64 and immediately I wanted to have one and thankfully another cousin gave one on my birthday. Because I was still catching up to the next generation console, once again missed a lot of SNES games which I was unaware of their existence (I was very naive).
After that I was able to catch up with every Nintendo console, including the Game Cube. I fall in love with 64 games more than with every other console games. Here I played Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Zelda Ocarina of Time, Diddy Kong Racing, Zelda Majora's Mask, Jet Force Gemini (my first 3D shooter), Paper Mario (my first RPG) and last but not least Donkey Kong 64 which is one of my favorite 3D platformers.
I'll spare you the rest of my story because it has become very long this post. I will just end up saying the following: I wish I could have been more open minded to playing more 2nd and 3rd party games during the 64 generation. I missed playing great games like Banjo Kazooie 1 and 2, Golden Eye 007, etc. because was close-minded in that time. But now I am more open to play games and consoles even if they aren't from Nintendo. I hope that this helps others to consider playing playing 3rd party games and play on other consoles if they find games that they like

@Xploder9825 Thanks, and welcome to you too. I think I will put my story in a forum that's dedicated to gaming experiences, once I get more familiar with this site's features and forums.

Just signed up! Been away from gaming for probably 20 years but recently bought a switch and so far having a great time! Which forum is the best place to ask dumb newbie game related questions?
@New_Guest it's a saying a friend and I came up with as kids, I can't remember what it meant or why we thought it was so funny to say it, just stuck with me.

So far we have only played MK8D but been having a lot of fun with it the last 3 weeks. We just bought the Switch to play with our daughter and plan to get into some other games soon. I really wanna play Zelda, but beyond that we're not sure yet. We do like couch coop games so plan to look at some of those.
Hello there lovely people. I'm a longtime gamer, never did enjoy much online gaming, but I'm mildly interested, my switch friend code is SW-8494-3977-5872. I'll pop it in the Switch friend code sharing forum as well. I'm currently in the process of updating my owned games list, of which there is a lot.
I have a Wii, Wii U, 3DS and a Switch.
I grew up owning a Sega Genesis, and my best friend had the Super Nintendo. The first system I bought with my own money was the Sega Dreamcast on launch day. I still love that system dearly.
I also have the whole run of Sony consoles except the original, PSP or Vita. I strictly do not play online on Sony devices, just not my cup of tea, at all.
I am interested in the Nintendo Life community due to our shared interest and general pleasant attitude I've observed in the comments, and it's international flavor. I'm in the US, but please don't hold that against me. This is my only "social-media" or account on any type of related site, I did have a facebook but I got rid of it and life has been better off for it!
Looking forward to being a part of the Nintendo community.
