Best Nintendo memories

[TK14]

Playing Street Fighter II: The New Challengers with my brothers and dad when I was really young.
Playing Super Mario 64 the first time.
Watching my brother play through Ocarina of Time.
Playing Wave Race 64 and Mario Kart 64 multiplayer.
Getting to play as Zelda in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Playing Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
Getting a Gameboy Color and Pokemon Yellow on my 10th birthday.
Waiting in line for 12 hours with my brother to get the Wii and Twilight Princess at midnight on launch day.
Beating Twilight Princess, which was the first Zelda game I beat by myself.
Obsessing over every piece of news and rumors and footage and trailers of Skyward Sword for five years and then finally getting to play it.
Playing all the way through Xenoblade Chronicles, which was at the time BY FAR the biggest/longest game I'd ever played, and it instantly became my favorite game ever.
Finally beating Ocarina of Time so many years later on 3DS, with the remake capturing how it always looked in my head. (I was too scared to do the Forest Temple as a kid because of the wallmasters, lol!)
The January Nintendo Direct where Iwata talked about Zelda Wii U the first time and showed the first trailer for what would become Xenoblade Chronicles X, which started my next three year period of obsessing over every sliver of news about that game.
Playing over 150 hours of Xenoblade Chronicles X in one month, between college semesters (the PERFECT time for it to release), pretty much 5+ hours a day. And it was amazing.
Playing 400 hours of Splatoon, and lots of Black Ops 2, Mario Kart 8, and Super Smash Bros for Wii U with two of my best friends.
Going to see The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses twice with my buds.
There's so much more. Seriously. And specific moments in games too. I could write a really long book about it all haha.
