This email's title alone transported me back to my gaming origins with my twin yet again, and actually reading it confirmed it: "One of us plays; the other two of us offer strategic advice." The path from feeling unnameably nervous watching twinbro navigate Mario Bros 1 like a pro to seasoned backseat gamer (which eventually gave me the courage to play solo) started with, again, Ocarina of Time. We turned into strategy guide collectors of a sort, so I took it upon myself to examine whatever section he found himself stuck in. Sometimes I'd freestyle it even with the guide though, lol. I also distinctly remember manning the C buttons during boss fights while David did movement and B-button-- weirdest multiplayer idea ever but also baby's first step to handling a controller alone :P
