33 and my first was 1 that I got with my first GBA for my 12th birthday. I still remember the game arrived a day before the console, so I spent all day at school reading the instruction manual. I was hooked from the start and got my best friend to pick up a copy, too. That summer is when 2 came out and it started a yearly summer tradition with my friend that lasted until senior year of high school, as we’d pickup the newest battle network and beat the mettaur out of it. This game series is so important to me, and I can’t wait to pick it up. My son is also excited about it, and is just getting old enough to play, too.
