Chase,
Glad I wasn't the only Nintendo fanboy growing up! I also had a subscription to Nintendo Power for what must have been at least 4 or 5 years, haha. And my first systems, in chronological order, were Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Game Boy (Color/Advance), Nintendo 64, GameCube. I broke the trend after that going with PlayStation 2, but I was ALL about Nintendo for YEARS.
Unfortunately, they seem to be on the lower end of the console scale at the moment, although my buddy just revealed to me that they are releasing some great stuff for the newer "Wii U" console that looks great. It's about time too -- PlayStation and Xbox have been dominating that market for awhile now.
While I was a Nintendo gamer for years, I am now, at the core, a PC gamer. =)

My folks got me a subscription to Nintendo Power magazine, which would get me so hyped up for upcoming games. NP sent out a VHS tape on the making of Donkey Kong that I must've watched a dozen times in anticipation of the game coming out. I was basically a Nintendo Superfan in my youth (Gameboy, NES, SNES, N64... that + a few PC games and Atari before the NES were my gaming upbringing!).
