Ever since I was little, I remember games being a huge part of my life. My brother and I weren't allowed to go outside, at least when my parents were around, so we would sit around the SNES/NES/Sega/DOS computer and play games. However, I usually wasn't the one playing. I would be the one watching over my brother's shoulder. Or, on rare occasion, the second player. Though that never lasted long as I was a toddler, and didn't know what I was doing. This usually ended in me crying and swearing I would only watch him play.
Also, despite growing up with games, I haven't owned most console or handheld devices. Majority of the consoles I had were the really old consoles. My first handheld being the original blocky DS, which I had bought as my mom's Christmas present to my older brother. Besides the DS, we also had a PSx and PS2, up until we sold the Playstation to buy us food for the week and the PS2 went up in smoke one day. Since then, we've only owned a Wii, which was given to us for free, and an old xbox which my brother sold to fix our shared computer at the time.
Now I mostly play games on my laptop when ever my friends coerce me in to playing with them. I mostly use steam to play. Majority of the games I play are usually from Humble Bundles. Occasionally I play games on my 3DS. So most of my knowledge comes from the classics, but I do enjoy newer games.
Some of my favorite games are: The World Ends With You, Digimon World 1, Harvest Moon, Seiken Densetsu 3, Mother series, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rescue/Explorers, Kirby Super Star, Black and White, and a ton more that I can't remember at the top of my head.
