You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

I, also, have never played Zelda.

I'm almost certain you have, Joe. I thought I'd even played Zelda with you more than once, years ago.

My memory is not the most reliable, however.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Nope. Never played it. Sorry, Alzhei--I mean, "Old man".

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I thought I was the last person on the planet who hadn't played it. Nice to know I'm in good company.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I didn't think there were any humans left that hadn't played at least a little Zelda at some point.

I've never played Zelda. I've watched other people play it, though. (And my sister is obsessed enough for both of us, so I don't feel the loss.)

My memory is not the most reliable, however.

Nintendo games have an adverse effect on memory. People who actually work at Nintendo are, of course, the hardest hit. This is why you might sometimes notice similarities between current Nintendo games and previously release titles. The Nintendo developers keep thinking that having Mario save the princess is an original idea.

Wow. I didn't think there were any humans left that hadn't played at least a little Zelda at some point.

Nope, I've never played it either. It just doesn't interest me.

I've never owned a Nintendo machine of any variety, for that matter.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Even though I think we have every system possible, I have never played any of them.

I love board games, but have zero interest in video games.

Maybe I burned out on too much Pac-Man and Donkey Kong years ago. (My Dad was the business manager of my prep school and as such would collect the money out of the machines in the student lounge during vacations. Since no one was around, he would put 100s of credits on the machines and just let us play).

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I didn't think there were any humans left that hadn't played at least a little Zelda at some point.

well, I'm not entirely certain I am human.

I am a total Nintendo fangirl. I love me some Mario!!!

raises hand

But then, I've hardly played any video games AT ALL, and don't plan on starting.
