Haha, my reason would be a multiple of these answers. : ) I play games because they're fun. Playing thru games like Mario, Zelda, and Smash are just really enjoyable to run around and soak in the world, especially when you play with friends, (or just fight in Smash!). It's good times to laugh, yell, and just have a good time. Then there's also the story, music, and characters like in RPGs. Good RPGs like Grandia, Final Fantasy, Pokemon, and Chrono Trigger allow you to explore a vast world, get lost in the music, and grow to love and enjoy the company of the characters you spend all your time with. And then there are games that challenge you, like puzzle games such as Tetris, Puyo Puyo, and a personal favorite, Tetris Attack, where you try to break your opponent and make some great, satisfying combos.
All in all, it's a good way to have fun, relax, and just take a break : )
Dance my pretties!
