Hi, I am a 15-year-old guy from Turkey. As I remember, the first game I have ever played apart from Adobe Flash games was Wii Sports when I was 5. My adventure of gaming started with my parents choosing Wii over PS3 because Wii had sports games. This really shaped my style and likings as a gamer. I'd probably be a shooter lover if they bought PS3 rather than a Nintendo fan. When I was 7, my dad who was fond of RTS games, introduced me to Age of Empires series. I was playing a decade-old strategy game while my friends were relentlessly shooting people in Counter Strike. (By the way, I have no problem with shooter and FPS kind games and I also play them, but my first choice is always strategy.) Today, I play both strategy games and other titles. I am also a big Nintendo fan myself. I played Mario Kart Wii for years without knowing any other Nintendo console and Mario Kart game being released. (Unfortunately, distributor of Nintendo in here Turkey bankrupted after the release of 3DS in 2013. Plus, I didn't know much English to follow the news on the internet back then.) Now, I have a Wii, a PSP, a 3DS (of which bottom screen is broken) and a PS4. I love enjoying old titles from Nintendo and Sega, so I play them on my PSP much more than I play PSP titles there. I have been sometimes visiting GBAtemp as a guest for a couple of years and I decided to end this by finally becoming a member. I hope we have decent conversations going on these brilliant forums. Have a nice day!

Welcome to GBAtemp!

Quite the backstory there. So you played Mario Kart Wii for years, ever hack your Wii and play double dash? That game is a ton of fun, highly recommend. Sorry to hear your 3DS broke :(

I waited for them to cease supporting Wii to hack the device. It is better to be safe than sorry, you know. Mario Kart being my favorite Nintendo franchise, I, of course, played Double Dash on my Wii. I would love to further chit chat over Mario kart in a dedicated topic with Mario Kart lovers in this forum.

When these ominous days are over, I will try and get my 3DS fixed. It has been a year I bought my 3DS and it is my favorite handheld so far. I hope I will be able to play with it again.:sad:

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
