I Found My Old Nintendo

Recently, I found an old Super Nintendo remake in the basement.

So naturally, I started playing.

Mario.

Donkey Kong.

Zelda.

A few hours later, I realised something.

I don't think I loved games because they were games.

I think I loved discovering things.

Mario made me look for hidden paths.

Zelda made me wonder what was behind the next hill.

Later, Age of Empires II made me curious about history, places and how civilizations were built.

LEGO made me build worlds of my own.

Looking back, I think I've always been interested in the same thing.

Discovery.

Whether it's a game, a city, a mountain trail or a new country.

I'm still asking the same question I asked when I was ten years old.

What's around the next corner?
