Just a short post from each who wish to air their views on Nintendo. Why are you such a fan? What is your favourite game and why? How did you become a Ninty fan? What is it that keeps you a loyal supporter? How do you feel about the direction Nintendo have been taking or are taking in the future?

Its just a bit of fun for those Ninty fans out there!

Lots of stuff, really. What springs to mind the most are those 40 hour epics with virtually no storyline or speech but still managed to hook you into its world (Zelda, DK, Harvest Moon). Not as many these days *sniff*

The game that got me hooked on N64 was Wave Race 64! I remember seeing the demo playing in the independent games shop in our town and the water effects just blew me away. It was soley those water effects that sealed my decision to buy an N64.

Still love to have a blast on Wave Race 64 even now!

That was Rare

I like Nintendo because 99% of the time they make good games with brains, as opposed to everyone else making them either 10% or 1% of the time.

My first console experience was playing on a SNES round my cousins house. Games like Mario kart, super soccer, super tennis and street fighter got me hooked on the console and me and my brother got one for xmas!

Dont think i'll be buying thier next console though as it doesnt have pro evo on it!

The NES was my first ever console... Mario bros 1, 2 & 3 are the only old school ones I can clearly remember.

Then came my SNES, Zelda a link to the past still one of my most favorite games of all time. Also the Donkey Kong country games, super Mario world, super Mario all stars, and Mario kart's pure class.

After that the PS ruled the next era, but I did get an N64 towards the end of its life, I know it was about a year before majora’s mask. Anyway with my late purchase came a chance to get the greats, like Zelda ocarina of time, super Mario 64 (some fool swapped it for my crappy laser pen), Mario kart and super smash bros.

Then the cube with classic titles such as melee, paper Mario 2, pikmin, Mario kart DD and others. The cube games on my shelf now out number the PS2 games; I just can't remember all of them.

Basically Nintendo have produced more classic tittles than any other, that’s why I like Nintendo, they have originality and great game play that most other games just don't have.
