Theresa Ridgway (aka Game Mistress) is a retro streamer who hails from Norway and still holds a passion for Sega that began when she was very young. “It started when I was about two years old and sitting in the living room with my mother,” she begins. “I noticed my sister’s NES and I started to press the power button while holding the controller until my mother asked if I wanted to play. We began playing Metroid, and I had a lot of fun. Later, she put on Zelda 2, and I played my sister’s completed save file.”
