I just came home from my late-night candy shopping. Yes, I have a sweet tooth. Once I entered the hallway to my apartment there was a familiar smell I couldn't really describe, but without a seconds notice I associated it with Super Mario Bros. 2. That really freaked me out, and I had to do some thinking as to why it reminded me of that game in particular. I think it was the smell of my aunt's house, where I used to play a lot of NES games, especially SMB2 and Zelda, when I was growing up. It's not a food-related scent, but more of an old-house kind of thing. It got me thinking if I have any other memories based around scent, or can be triggered by it. I thought it was kind of interesting.
So, have you ever associated a smell with a particular video game? Or anything else?
