I'm sure this subjects been brought up, but i'm asking when you first heard about the concept, did you know you were gonna buy it and enjoy it so much?

I remember hearing about the concept, and i never got into the SIMS craze at the time, but always give nintendo's newest series' a chance.. they hardly ever let me down.

But, when i heard you could unlock old NES ganes, published by nintendo themselves, like mario bros, zelda, excitebike ... i was more pumped than ever. i went an pre=ordered mine, and was waiting for the day.

Honestly, unlocking the NES games became my biggest draw, and as i was playing doing what had to be done to find certain one .... i did, i got hooked on it. the everyday life you check in on, was like a "the game away from traditional gaming."

So, yeah, i've been with the series since the first announcements ... just interested in hearing some tales of what "really" got you into the series?

This specific game? Playing Wild World. Didn't like this game much at first, but then after playing WW I did.

I had never played a game like it before. I used to play nothing but platformers and adventure games, games with goals and progression. AC was just :wideeyed: to me.

There used to be in the UK. Not sure what happened to it. :\ It was awesome, you got free DVDs of Cartoon Network shows in some issues.

I saw an ad for it in CN as well, as well as the Beano. But we didn't have a Gamecube.

Played it over my friend Amber's house. Ugh. I got stung by bees only 15 seconds into playing the game. Fail x.x
