The game that started it for me was Star Fox 64, 20 years later and I still have my original cartridge! It was so amazing to play with aunt, she would play the hardest levels for me when I was little, then we would just take turns when I was older and had more ability.
She also used to play some games on the computer like World of Warcraft, and liked to collect dragon statues. Even though she didn't play D&D, she liked to bring me to this park where a lot of people would play it and we watched their adventures.
I only really started to get into RPGs when I played The World Ends With You (which is really different from other RPGs) in middle school. After that I started playing Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, etc., and fell in love with the genre.
