Hm... let me see... When I first got into the series, was back in 1994 or 1993, I used to go to a friend's house, after school, and we played on his brother's SNES, he had some games, and the one I played the most was A Link to the Past.
That Christmas, my mom bought me Link's Awakening for the GB.
Some years prior to the release of OoT(maybe 1999, one year after), I lost my interest in videogaming.
One day, in 2002 or so, I was shopping with a girlfriend I had at the time, and accidentally saw one marvelous thing: a Portable A Link to the Past.
What was the first thing I did?Buy a GBA and that game
After that I got both the Oracles, and LA DX, and after that...oh, you got the idea... lol
And you?When did you get into the series?
