When I was about six years old, I was being dragged through a garage sale with my mother. While there, we discovered the strangest thing that I had ever seen: a Nintendo 64. I didn’t know it back then, but that game system has played a major role in my identity. My mother bought the system and the games that came with it. We took it home, hooked it up, and I dug through the box of games. One of the games looked particularly appealing. The cartridge was grey with a golden sticker reflecting the dim light. In large red letters, a sword entwined with the first letter, was the title of the game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
