No, I don't need girl advice and the Giant Bomb hotline, but I do love that meme of Ryan Davis.
Today I'm lamenting the stupid decision to throw out all of my Super Nintendo game boxes as I was preparing to go to college. At the time it didn't bother me. My mind was focused on school and being social, so my interest and time in gaming really took a hit.
I recently stumbled on a site to download the "Top 100 Super Nintendo Music Tracks" and the wave of nostalgia that hit me is bittersweet and the regret for tossing those boxes facepalmed me.
Yoshi's Island, Final Fantasy's II and III, Contra III, Ninja Turtles IV, Star Fox, Gradius III, Pilotwings, the Street Fighter series, Super Mario All-Stars, Super Metroid, Zelda: The Link to the Past, Actraiser, Super Star Wars Trilogy, and Alien 3 are just some of the boxes in my collection that I've chucked. The only boxes I have are my brother's Super Nintendo console box he gave me and the complete F-Zero and Chrono Trigger games I've purchased throughout the years. I just want them back for the artwork and the "completist" satisfaction I've developed for gaming.
Anyone else want to wallow in memories of foolish decision-making?
