The special thing about Nintendo/Rare games is there are always moments that are very memorable to you. Whether it's a Boss or anothewr part of the game, they have that special feeling that you can't get anywhere else. I'm, going to list a few of my favourite moments and i hope you will too:
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time:
When you read the writing on one of the gravestones of the composers of the Sun's Song and his ghost appearing. Classic secret.
Super Mario 64:
Finding Yoshi on the roof after getting 120 power *'s, obviously very memorable.
Goldeneye:
Completing Control for the first time, it's probably the hardest level on the game.
Banjo-Kazooie:
Getting the secret eggs, probably the only secret in the game. But does anyone know what they do??
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask:
The first time you take off the Deku Scrub mask, looks reallt strange.
Killer Instinct Gold:
Doing your first Ultimate Combo is great and my most memorable moment. Mine was Sabur Wulfs bat thing, probably the easiest one to do.
So, there are some of my favourites, what about?

I really agree with completing Control on GoldenEye, that took me ages.
What about the island changing into a turtle in Majoras Mask?
Or watching the sunset over Lake Hylia in Zelda OOT?
P.S. will you read my story on the horrible future of videogames? Feedback would be much appreciated

Favourite Nintendo moments hey?
I guess one would have to be flying for the first time in Super Mario Bros 3.
You could do it on the very first level, just had to get the first power-up mushroom to get big, avoid a few enemies and you'd come across another ? block. If you were still big a feather would ome from it, taking it made you racoon Mario. Why a racoon? I just don't know! But there was plenty of room just after this to take a run up. Once the meter was full it would make a funny beepy noise, and you could take off. You'd land in the clouds and get all the coins, think there was an extra life up there too.
I guess it was the first time that I understood the Nintendo Difference. It wasn't just naother game, it was evolution of the game. Not just did you scroll from left to right, you could also take to the skies! Then there was the world map, it was completely different, so many changes, so much better than what I had come to expect from sequels in my early years!
A Link to the Past on the SNES was pretty special too. I think it was when I first went into the othre world, and found myself as a pink bunny rabbit. The world map I had been looking at had decieved me, the game was twice that size! The story here had me completely wrapped in it, I enjoyed every minute of it.
Super Mario 64, just seeing the 3D world was fantastic. Then as you start to move around it was like nothing I'd ever played before. Top stuff.
Kirby's Pinball Land. Each boss was excellent. A level based pinball game was such a treat. Having to hatch the eggs was really fun, then you'd be whisked off to fight a really fun boss. I loved this game!

Few more favourite gaming moments:
Killer Instinct: Seeing that Indian guys ending, when Spinal pops up from the grave it feels great.
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: The whole game is just so astounding, so i'd say everything :-)
Donkey Kong Country 3: The ending is just brilliant, watching Cranky Kong on the motor boat is really fun. One of the best games i've come across.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island: The Boss on the moon, it's so fun to beat, may be quite easy buy that don't mean it isn't fun.
Actraiser: Beating the boss on the sand level, it was a giant sand-worm thing that fired spikes at you, quite a hard boss.
Super Mario Bros. 3: Getting a brilliant item in oe of the treasure chests :-)
Kirby's Fun Pack: Beating Boss' :-D

Yeah, I hate water levels too, especially in Mario games!
My best moment was probably completing Mario 64. I then read you could find Yoshi, and did so, and also that you can move the camera around during the ending, using a second controller.
Seeing Yoshi leap a mile into the waterfall gave me a strong feeling that there'd be a sequel on the N64 :(
But it was still brilliant doing it, as I completed it in under a month!! And I was also the first person I knew to get an N64 and complete Mario 64!

Bah, I hate Water levels. Much rather stick to good old dry land me...
Anyway, my fave gaming moments are all probably in Zelda:OOT. The music combined with some of scenes are just stunning to watch. Especially some of the scenes Shiek. Finding out Shiek's secret identity was also very special:)

Well there the fact that I luv water, but I have other reasons to.
That first water level was just soo good for quite a few reasons. 1, being the fact that the was quite a few different things you had to do on the level, 2, finding the cave. I really enjoyed that bit! Caves are cool! 3, that level had some of the BEST game music EVER in it! That's probably the main reasion. I could just swim around for hours on that level listening to the music.
Oh and if you think there slow, just when you jump into the water near the start inside one of the shells, is a green turtle shell. Grab that and you should be able to move around faster!
And snow levels!?! They can be quite nice n festive, but the slipping n sliding.... Well to be honest I luv snow levels too. Frozen water! (hehe)
Can't WAIT for Mario Sunshine! One of THE reasons I'm getting a Gamecube!
:)
