John Cena talks about his childhood history with Nintendo, how much he digs 1-2 Switch

Coming from a Mashable interview with John Cena...

"Dude, I haven't played Zelda since gold-cartridge Zelda. I got on Breath of the Wild and they had to take it away from me. I’m a relic from a bygone era. If I were to walk around in my game personality, I would be an 8-bit graphic interface. That was my sweet spot.

That was my youth, man, I was at the right age when the Nintendo explosion happened in ‘84/’85. I got my first 8-bit system in ‘85 so I remember Nintendo Power subscriptions. I remember when The Wizard came out — they showcased the Power Glove for the first time. I remember losing in Track and Field to a kid who had the NES Advantage [controller] and the turbo button and I was blown away. He should’ve been tested for PEDs because he had the unfair controller.

"1-2-Switch is a game made for a dude like me — I love it. It's something that is very social and I think it’s really something that can be enjoyed by anyone. That’s a game that you want to get together with friends as adults and have a fun party night where everybody just flies off the handle — 1-2-Switch is built for that. What a fun way to spend an evening with a bunch of crazy adults having coffee or tea or whatever adult beverages you want to have."
