Nintendo @ E3 '15: Our Muppet Bodies Weren't Ready

[Smeags]

I'll talk about my most memorable Nintendo moment.

I forget what birthday it was, but it was my birthday and there was one thing I wanted: a Nintendo 64. It's all I talked about going into my birthday and I was putting all my hopes into getting one. I *had* to get a N64!

So the family went to a restaurant (Ruby's, which is pretty great). We ate and then afterwards they pulled out the presents. Nothing looked like an N64 box, and lo and behold there was no N64... but maybe it was a "Oh wait, we have another present!" trick. But alas, after I tore the paper from the last Star Wars action figure that was it. Don't get me wrong, I was happy with my gifts (I had allll the Star Wars action figures!), but I was also a bit dejected. I guess there was always Christmas.

We drove back home in separate cars, and before I went to bed, my dad called from downstairs that he saw something strange that the dog found. So I came downstairs, and sitting by our dog was a Blue N64 controller. My eyes grew wide and I was in disbelief! I then turned... and there it was: a N64 sitting in the living room. And Diddy Kong Racing! I was so excited, but I couldn't play it until the morning, as it was already my bed time.

I woke up at dawn the next morning, and plugged the system into our T.V. with Diddy Kong Racing before we had to leave for school. It was absolutely magical.
