Late in the Game

Summer is officially here and with the hot weather, E3 announcements, and cravings for ice tea all the time, I wanted to officially welcome summer with this outfit. I may have grown up gaming like the rest of the kids in the ’80s, played Mario until I got blisters, and run on that Power Pad like there was no tomorrow, but somehow I completely missed playing The Legend of Zelda. Fast forward to last year when I was feeling nostalgic one weekend, found myself a copy of the game, and finally sat down and played through the whole thing on my original NES. My friends are still shocked to find out that it took me this long to play the game and I’m still puzzled why I never played it until recently. I had played other versions of Zelda throughout the years, but there’s nothing like the original to set your gaming foundations. Coincidentally, this iconic game was a huge focus point for the newest Zelda announcement at E3 this year and it looks amazing! It’s just one of the many games I’m looking forward to next year!
