My dad has always been a huge nerd at heart, though he has lost interest/won't admit he still loves nerdy things since I was little.
Anyway, as for when I fell in love with video games; I was three, and didn't have the motor skills to handle a controller. To remedy this, my dad used the VCR to record himself playing Super Mario Bros. for about an hour, then played the video as I played the game.
And no, I didn't honestly beleive that story when they told me it happened. Then they pulled out the goddamn video of them recording me "playing" on the NES.
