My introduction to the gaming world was Pokemon Red and it was not my gameboy. The game I extensively played and pushed me into the RPG genre is Pokemon Gold. This was the game that I played for many hours and once I beat the elite four, the best moment was I was able to enter Kanto the first time. The first gaming non-mobile console I played is the Nintendo/Playstation 1 at the same time. Crash Bandicoot, Taken 3, Pokemon Stadium 1/2, Paper Mario.
Also would love to hear your opinion about the new SNES mini console.
