This brought back a memory from college. This was at Cal Poly Pomona sometime in '97. I used to take my N64 to the communal area with a big TV in my dorm to play multiplayer games. I spend like a solid month no-lifeing the time trials when MK64 came out and had a reputation for being pretty much unbeatable. This other guy who everyone said was also really good at the game challenged me and I had the most intense match on Rainbow Road ever; it was neck and neck almost the whole race. I won in the end, but it was close. Fun times.
Nowadays, of course, I would go online and be instantly destroyed.
My wife and I play Fortnite every once in a great while. You get to thinking you're hot shit and then some 12 year old sneaks up on you and shoots you in the face. There's always a bigger fish I guess.
