12 Things you Should Know about Me and Videogames--in No Particular Order
q-pa | 9:23 PM on 10.17.2008 9 comments


Why 12? Because that's as many essential facts as I could think of to introduce myself:

* I was deprived as a child. I Didn't own a videogame system till I bought a NES from a friend in 1997. And it got that reset problem 2 months later.

* Not counting my PC or Nintendo DS, I've never owned a current console ($...).

* My first videogame memory: SMB in the late 80s at some house function. I repeatedly died on the 1st or 2nd goomba...

* I never played classic MegaMan or any Metroid untill I was in college, but I love them.

* Favorite VG Soundtracks: Katamari Damacy, Sonic CD (Japanese), & Final Fantasy3/6. Runner-up: Battletoads & Double Dragon

* I have a number of friends in real life, but none of them are into gaming. Call me well-rounded...

* SMB3 > SMW

* I DJ (vinyl + digital) but I'm lazy. I have Ambassadors of Funk's "Super Mario Land", that Star Wars disco album, and 2 Moog compilations on vinyl.

* I like the vocal Sonic R Soundtrack--for listening to anyway. I would never use it in a set.

* This is the greatest, most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Ever.

* I'm the best at nothing--and I'm OK with that.

* I am WarioWare's 9-Volt grown up--except I don't skateboard.


Edit:
#13: I came here via the Retroforce GO podcast. Much love to them.

SMB3 > SMW

I respectfully disagree, good sir.

..Eh, welcome to Destructoid anyways. I won't hold your questionable judgement about video game quality against you. :D

It's okay, it's hard to top me being the best at everything, you know.
