In no time, I was running into Zoras, Gorons, and the huge cast of quirky characters from the Zelda universe. I popped it into my N64 the second I got a chance and it blew my Hyrule-loving mind. She let me borrow it, saying it was a boring game and I could have it as long as I wanted (she clearly had bad taste).

I had no idea just how much finding the Ocarina of Time cartridge at my friend's house was going to impact my life when I was 11 years old.
