Birthday Reflections 1: Video Games
4 years ago
I am starting writing this a few minutes before midnight. Tomorrow, January 8th, is my 18th birthday. While I write this, I am listening to the soundtrack of Kirby's Dream Land 3, a game a have a lot of very fond memories of. Here are some video game special thanks in honor of my life up to now:
Super Mario Bros. 3: My introduction to the Mario series, as well as my introduction to video games as a whole.
Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's 20th Anniversary: My introduction to my favorite video game series. It was so long ago, I do not remember which one I played first.
Kirby's Dream Land 3: The game included in Kirby's 20th Anniversary that I played the most of. I have so much nostalgia for this game.
Minecraft: I am not even going to try to write about how many memories and how much nostalgia I have for this game.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness: This game really helped make me who I am today. It is also by far the most nostalgic thing of all time for me.
Undertale: Although I never played it myself, I did watch videos of it on YouTube. It had a major impact on my life in an unexpected way.
Wii Play Motion and Wii Fit Plus: I have fond memories with my whole family of playing these games.
New Super Mario Bros. 2: My first 3DS game.
Plants Vs. Zombies: I have memories of playing this at my grandparents' house on the iPad they had there. Other games I played on that iPad were Minecraft Pocket Edition (which was very different back then) and Doodle Jump.
Super Mario Flash 1 & 2: My cousin introduced me to these games, and I loved them.
Paper Minecraft: Before I could play real Minecraft, I used to play a 2D recreation of it on Scratch. It was made by a user called Griffpatch, who also made lots of other great games on Scratch. Special thanks go to him and all of his Scratch projects.
The Bloons games, especially BTD5: I mostly played 3, 5, and Monkey City.
Pretty much anything from CoolMathGames: So many memories!
A little handheld soccer game I used to have: I don’t know where it is now. I just have a somewhat vague memory of it, but I know it existed.
And to all of the other games I didn’t mention!
