Hello, and welcome to the Uncle who Works for Nintendo RPG.

You are eleven years old. Your best friend has invited you to a sleepover at his or her house this weekend! You've been friends since first grade, so asking your mom is basically only a formality.

On Friday night, you're home for only a few hours - long enough to pack, get in a fight with your younger sister, pack some more, and watch some TV. At six sharp, you're standing on the sidewalk outside of your best friend's house.
