First There was NES

Well, there's not much to tell here, I got an NES when I was about 4, so you can imagine me forgetting the details. but I have about 8 games for NES. I really love NES STILL Even with It's crapy graphics, I think most of the games are very fun, such as Zelda or Super Mario Bros. Trilogy. Hey, Graphics Aren't everything!

Then along came SNES

After a few years, my dad willingly gave me a SNES for which reason i do not know. Anyway, I have about 16 games now for it not including Game Genie or Super Scope 6. One of those games, I bought about 3 years ago now is Super Mario Kart. It was the first Nintendo game I got that the bottom of the cartridge had a slant thing on the part that goes into the game. Now all the New games have it though. I really loved that game, I was never beaten in battle, and I never got sick of it, like what can happen with some games. I played, and played, got better and better. Then I started getting some what sick of it. I had so good of time trial Times that I couldn't beat any of them. and I also had all gold medals. when finally...

Enter N64

Boy, I loved Nintendo, but most all of my games were getting pretty boring now. Then it happened, out came quadrillions of reviews for "Nintendo Ultra 64". I didn't hear much about it, so I didn't really care much. But when It finally came out, I thought it was the neatest diddily dong thing I ever saw! when My cousin got it, all he had was Killer Instinct Gold. But that is the Stupidest Game! I wanted him to have Super Mario 64, for that was the really cool game I Went all the way to Wal-Mart Just to play. And then They changed the game at Wal-Mart to Mario Kart 64. I played it, and It was so cool! And I loved Battle on SNES, but to have it on N64! wow! and with 4 controllers! The first level I played was Frappe Snowland. Then my friend, Kenneth Fairchild, got a Nintendo 64. He got Super Mario 64 with his N64 too. He figured things out pretty fast. After that, for some unknown reason, I wanted to have Mario Kart 64. So next time I went to Wal-Mart I bought it. Then right after that, I decided what fun is battle without some players? So I bought a yellow controller too. then I brought my controller and game to Kenneth's House. I didn't have a N64 at the time so I could only play there. Finally for my birthday, I bought myself a Nintendo 64. I have 2 games, One I got on my trip to Oregon and Washington. I got it in Super Mario 64 in Oregon so i don't have to pay sales tax. That game I got 120 stars the 3rd day having it, But in Mario Kart 64 I have all gold medals, and in my point of view, really good time trial records. I find 4 player battle the most fun. I am the best at battle, and also good at GP, and versus. just they're not as fun. but every day now I spend a little time getting better time trial records. And I recently got a memory card to help accelerate some of my time trial records.

Future Goals

I plan to take over the Universe, and the next game i plan to get will be Bomberman 64.

My personal questions

why did they end up calling it Nintendo 64, when in the reviews, they planned to call it Nintendo Ultra 64?

Answer by Kevin Booth:

They changed the name several times. The development scheme was "Project Reality". From there it turned into Ultra 64, then finally into Nintendo 64!

And why is it just plain boring Mario Kart 64? why didn't they make it Super Mario Kart 64?

Response by Kevin Booth:

Very Good Question! I think the system of name changing has to do with selling the games, and not getting them mixed up (super=16-bit and 64=64-bit)! I do agree however that the game should have had a different name... Mario Kart R was the name given to it when it had magikoopa, and the name I think they should have stuck with! I have tons of other ideas about the game, but will share those some other place!

Other Crud about me I have a Clear Game Boy, 4 games for that: Toy Story, Donkey Kong Land, Wario Blast, and Paperboy. I also have some non-Nintendo systems that most of you wouldn't be interested in. But for those that are: for Sega Genesis: Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and Sonic Spinball. (I am a Sonic fanatic, but hate Sega.) Games for SNES: Contra III, SMK, SMW, Street Fighter II, Game Genie, Super Scope 6, John Madden Football, DKC 1 &2, Super Mario RPG, Final Fight, and lots of others that I don't want to waste my time listing. If you think you are better than me in any way in battle, then e-mail me because I am "Elite A" in the world at battle.
