Everyone I know knows that I am a Gamer. Whenever I make a new friend, I make it known that I am a gamer. Whenever I meet someone new, I make it known. Even people who see me once know it.
But when did I become a Gamer? Where did it all start? Time to go back in time!
1990, 2 Years Old: I was introduced to the game "Super Mario Bros." for the NES by my Grandmother. She put the controller in my hands and told me to play. Being only 2, I naturally couldn't get very far, but I still kept playing.
1991, 3 Years Old: My older Sister brought home a Sega Genesis one day with Altered Beast. According to my Mom, I was trying to repeat those famous opening words all day: "RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!!".
1992, 4 Years Old: My Grandfather introduces me to the Gameboy, and my Grandmother introduces me to the SNES. I remember it like it was yesterday. I just would not be stopped from playing.
Anyway, as the years passed by, I was introduced to most, if not all, the mainstream consoles. For whatever reason, no one ever took the time to acquaint me with the other consoles, like TG-16, 3DO, or CD-i. I actually learned of those long after they're discontinuations.
The point is, I've been a Gamer for a LONG time, and I've loved every moment of it. I'll probably be a Gamer forever...scratch that, I WILL be a Gamer forever.
Thanks for reading!
