Christmas Gaming Memories – ft. the YouTube Community

As it’s Christmas, I asked the YouTube community to share a cherished childhood gaming Christmas memory. I received an astounding fifty submissions, and I hope that you all enjoy hearing the stories as much as I did.
Merry Christmas to everyone watching, and a huge thank you to the following (appearing in alphabetical order):
