With Christmas coming up I was wondering do any of you have any Nintendo traditions? What I mean is are they any games that you always play near Christmas?

 

For me it is Zelda. Ever since OOT I have played a Zelda game EVERY Christmas since then and as such Christmas isnt Christmas without playing one. I was really annoyed when TP got put back as that was going to be the one I played this year. Guess its either Wind waker, as I have only finished it once, or Minish Cap again.

 

Anyone else?

..um.. well.. from halloween I always get into 1080 Snowboarding on the N64 (think it's because I bought it just before halloween one year..but I play it all year round anyway..kinda..) ..towards Christmas though I always seem to go for Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes.. and Banjo-Kazooie (possibly because of freezeezy peak..) ..and V-Rally 99..

I normally re-play a game i'm getting for Christmas. So this year I'll probably play a bit of Mario and Luigi on the GBA to get me hyped up for the second.

Well, I usually get a plan, last year it was to complete Majoras, I failed...

 

This year, once I get bored of MK and Sonic Rush, I think I may play Banjo Kazooie and Tooie again, or a long leveling up craze session on Pokemon Blue.

I usually like to get out the SNES and play through DKC III with the MERRY cheat on. Then once i get used to it again and where the bonuses are to be found I fire in the TUFST cheat and sprint through it again to get 105% and the best time I can in order to be top of the rankings.

 

Plus yeah, OoT is a good one but for Chrimbo memories and I like to get it out and play through the first three dungeons or that, up until the cutscene where its Links dream coming true and then Ive seen enough.

 

One other one thats great for Chrimbo, Diddy Kong Racing! Ill see you's down in Frosty Village...

Shenmue 1 is a very Christmas time game (just a shame I don't have it any more!!)

Also Mario 64 and Diddy Kong Racing remind me of Christmas, because I got my N64 for Christmas with these two PERFECT games (and MRC aswell)!

 

I often like to play Zelda;OOT, Zelda seems perfect at Christmas;

Twilight Princess would have been great!

 

This Christmas I'll be playing Baten Kaitos for the first time (which kinda looks/feels like an enchanted Christmas type game to me)!!

and i'll either get Fire Emblem or Mario Kart DS aswell!

I play Kart games....CTR usually makes an appearence, a bittaracin' round some circuits. It's one of my favourite games EVER, a 4 player on that goes down well. It aint Nintendo, but it's SO great!!! ;)

 

Will be getting MKDS for Xmas hopefully. I played my mates ver. earlier, it's SO good!!

 

The games that remind me of Xmas are mainly Mario Sunshine and Soul Calibur II for an easily guessable reason. Though there are some others that do a little bit aswell.
