| NightDragon83 said: The immense joy I felt after finally getting my hands on the N64 and Mario 64 after over a year of waiting. Also the feeling you would get whenever picking out a new game at the store back in the day, a sense of wonder and mystery at the possibilities of what experience you'll have with this brand new shiny game. These days with YouTube and "lets plays" you can pretty much experience an entire game without ever actually playing it, but back then all you had to go by when making a decision was the back of the box, and maybe a page or two "sneak peek" in a videogame magazine for new games. |
I don't watch those... but the prolonged trailers certainly took some of the thrill... I wouldn't ever be surprised by buying that lot of games with strange names that I knew nothing about.
