Message: [QUOTE="DanVzare, post: 104736, member: 24290"] Nintendo was popular in PAL regions before the Wii. Don't underestimate the popularity of the original GameBoy and the original Donkey Kong arcade machines. Mario has been a household name the world over for a very long time. Now as for my fondest Nintendo memory. That'd be when I saved up my money to buy a GameBoy Colour. :D I think it only cost me £20 as well (maybe it was £40? I'd have to check the sticker that's still on the box). Which nowadays is unthinkable. Considering the GameBoy Advance came out the very next year, I think it's safe to assume why it was so cheap. Still, it was nice saving up my pocket money for it. I even got the colour I wanted. Transparent purple. I still have that GameBoy Colour and the box it came with. The first game I got for it was Wario Land III. Which quite honestly, was a very frustrating game. I never finished it. If I knew then what I know now, I would've looked for Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land. Since that's more inline with what I wanted from a platformer back then. Still, I had fun. I think the game I played the most on it was Pokemon Gold. I have nostalgia when I look back at when I used to struggle to see that screen. It really needed a backlight. [/QUOTE]
