Message: [QUOTE="Isegrim, post: 294812, member: 569592"] Super Mario Bros. After playing terrible ports of arcade games on the Atari 2600 and monochrome with scratchy computer speakers from our Apple 2, we got something comparable to arcade quality when we got our Famicom. The mushrooms and star power ups were just magical appealing to our interest in Dungeons and Dragons particularly. Super Mario Bros. 3 - It's Super Mario again but how can it have so much content? I played this in Japanese and was stuck in the dark on what was going on heightening the wonder and mystery. We get to rescue Peach with the new Koopalings as mysterious enemies and you have stuff in the Japanese manual like this... [ATTACH type="full" alt="Super Mario Bros 3 - Manual - Japan_0015.jpeg"]100798[/ATTACH] The picture on the right with the ship already told me I'd have one hell of a new quest with Mario... Castlevania series - How can one game has so much catchy music? It combines my interest for horror and the Holy with amazing music in one game. Monster Hunter Freedom - The first time I had to hunt a monster was a Rathalos. It was a dream come true, it'l be like St. George against the dragon or so I thought. So I went into this quest, walked right into the Rathalos and it was huge...I think I remember it even bigger than the ones I encounter all the time now in World and Wilds. My hunter looked oh so tiny against the Rathalos with it's huge teeth and claws...even its wings had menacing spikes. The Rathalos saw me and became madder than the Hulk...and it's roar was so loud, they even depicted the sound waves coming out of it in a visible wave of power. I'm supposed to kill THAT HUGE SCARY THING? Then it killed me. And after that I was hooked on the franchise but that first moment was really dreamy. Or it it nightmarish? Probably both. [/QUOTE]
