I love bowling, but this game is not even close to as good as Wii Sports Resort. Sorry!

A man from my parent's church gave us his Playstation with Spyro and Crash Bandicoot when I was a kid. He was moving to Washington DC for a job with his law degree. Eventually he earned a very high position in the Civil Rights division of the Justice Department during Trump's presidency. Donald Trump had a poor record with Civil Rights if you ask me. The best thing this man ever did was give me a Playstation. Definitely the high point of his career.
Crash is not good. I remember playing it and thinking to myself "Wow, this game sucks" as a 10 year old with a free game. I was 10 and thought that! About a free game that was given to me!!!

Spyro is alright.

As a youth my mom had a summer ticket program. For every 30 minutes we read we would get a ticket. Watching TV or playing games for 30 minutes cost a ticket. If we earned enough tickets she would take us to Half-Price Books to buy a book. I earned enough tickets to buy the Roller Coaster Tycoon guidebook. I would read the book for 30 minutes, earn a ticket, and play the game for 30 minutes with that earned ticket. It helped me beat all the scenarios. This is a good game!
This game has the song "All My Best Friends are Metalheads" by Less Than Jake, and because of that I have been in 2 different ska punk bands. Whoops!
This was my first Pokemon game. I bought it at a Best Buy while on vacation in Utah visiting my Grandma. It was $29.99 instead of $34.99. My first playthrough my team was: Swampert, Pelipper, Hariyama, Kyogre, Pikachu, and Wailord. I loved Water Pokemon!
I've played it many times since that first playthrough. I love Hoenn. I love Mudkip. I love this game.

This is a perfect game. I really don't think video games get much better than this, and I'll spend the rest of my life chasing the joy I had playing this game as a child. I suppose I could get that joy back by plugging in my N64 and playing it again, but I need an adapter for my large tv!
This is a pretty good racer. I don't think Star Wars Episode 1 is a particularly good movie, but Darth Plagueis made it much more enjoyable. This game is better than both Star Wars Episode 1 and Darth Plagueis.
This was my first GBA game. My dad bought it (and a GBA) when we were moving from Alaska to Texas. It was really kind of him, and I love this game. I beat it 100% multiple times, and still pick it up from time to time.
The opening song is Guerilla Radio by Rage Against the Machine, and now I have radical politics. Whoops!
I like ska music, and it's probably because of this game.
I liked this game, and then my neighbor borrowed it before his family moved somewhere that made it so he was no longer my neighbor, and then I no longer owned the game.

We rented this game from Blockbuster. My mom loved every second of the game. She thought Wario was the funniest character and laughed at everything that happened in the game. We later bought it for her for Mother's Day 2000. This is my favorite Mario Kart game.
1999
When my family went to Toys 'R' Us to by a Nintendo 64 my dad decided on the Donkey Kong 64 Jungle Green edition. It was $20 more than the regular edition, and my dad loved the Donkey Kong arcade game. This sure is a video gamey video game!

While I had a Super Nintendo gifted from my Aunt, what I really wanted as a child was a Nintendo 64 to play Super Mario 64.
I played it again as part of the Super Mario 3D All Stars for Switch collection while my wife and I were in the UK's mandatory quarantine for new arrivals. I 100%ed the game in 4 days, a total of 9 hours, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
That playthrough satiated me forever. Unlike Super Mario World, which I will play forever, I don't know if I'll play this game again. My 5-year-old self would be shocked.
