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!

DK64 was amazing.

Loved the DK Rap at the beginning.

Donkey Kong 64 was brilliant. I adored that game and it is one of the highlights of my video gaming.

The other game that had me hooked for hours and hours was Pilotwings 64. That still makes an appearance every now and then today for the canon multiplayer. Trying to shoot yourself into the target, screaming and yelling all the way along then hitting with that sickening thud! Classic stuff!

I remember I paid £59.99 for Pilotwings - were we all crazy?

I remember back in 1997 when Goldeneye was just about the most popular thing in the shops!

If you weren't playing Goldeneye you were dead!

Yeh thats true! Nintendo games do have that about them. They make games that just draw you back time after time after time!

Goldeneye for example is just that sort of game. When mates are round it is inevitably Goldeneye which is played for the multiplayer. There's nothing like a good shoot em up with Mr Bond!

Excitebike 64 is another one of my favourites for 'pick up and play'.

I guess I respect Nintendo because they make memorable games, instead of the "throw away" types, i.e. games you play, but then forget about once you've finished.

I'll probably get bored of Conker's BFD eventually, but not yet. I'm not playing it at the minute though. Still working away at Metroid Prime.
