In 1997, I vaguely remember waking up on my birthday morning and running to my parents’ room to find my parents carrying out a big box containing a brand new toy. This wasn’t any toy, this was one of the most popular gaming systems around: the Nintendo 64. I never had the luxury of owning an NES or a Super Nintendo, so this was my first time actually owning the same console that the rest of my friends had. They all received their N64s for Christmas, and I was obviously jealous, so I constantly harassed my parents about getting an N64 for my birthday. Eight long months passed, but the six-year-old me diligently waited them out.
When the day finally came, I found myself spending many days blissfully flying Arwings and driving karts across rainbows. Little did I know that two years later, all of the Nintendo characters I came to grow and love would all senselessly fight to the death…
Smash Bros will always hold a special place in my cold, unforgiving heart. Hence, the creation of this lovely treat dedicated to the hours spent in front of Smash and its successors. Handy dandy mini chorizo frittatas, AKA Super Smash Bites.
