Hm...well, I think when I was like...four(?), my cousin and I started playing the demo for FFVIII, but we didn't take much interest to it at first (we didn't get the game, didn't notice that it was the eighth game in the series, etc.), but we did like the summon. (Skittles!) Years later, the same cousin and I played Kingdom Hearts, which introduced me to FINAL FANTASY.
