Let's go back time before the Nintendo Wii (2007) and Nintendo Game Cube (2001). On September 29, 1996, Nintendo launched their third home video game console, the Nintendo 64 (a.k.a. N64 for its 64-bit Central Processing Unit). Fast-forward to December of 1996, when Nintendo made a boy and his little sister...well...very happy (see video below) and created a Christmas memory that will last a lifetime. Honestly, when was the last time you were this excited about anything?
