Hello Smashboards! I don't know why I'm so late to the party, but better late than never. Let's get on with the questions!
  • Who do you main in 64/Melee/Brawl/SSB4, why?
I main Captain Falcon in 64, Melee and PM because he's really fast and strong. Before you know it, you're right in line for a Knee or Falcon Punch. Also, it's freaking Douglas Jay Falcon... need I say more? I use him in Brawl for joke matches (because of how awful he is in that game), but my mains there would be Pit and Lucas. I started with Brawl, so before I moved to PM and Melee, I was able to play most of the characters at a decent level (after all, I have owned it since its release). Melee character usage is pretty much exclusive to high/top tier characters, though I'm also interested in the Links and Yoshi. PM stretches to Mario, Ganondorf, Roy and Ike, and for 64... you could say that I'm a much, MUCH less skilled version of Isai there. :p

  • Why have you joined Smashboards?
Why not? It's pretty much the premier Smash community; literally every community branches off from here.
  • Do you attend tournaments? Do you want to?
I rarely attend tournaments, but I really want to start going to more of these things. There's just never enough competition around where I live (and I'm about an hour away from downtown Toronto :/)
  • Talk about your interests outside of Smash Bros.!
My other fighting game interest is Ultra Street Fighter IV. I've played the SF4 series since Super, but never got really good at it until late last year. Still improving and will continue to. I have used Seth, all of the Shotos (that includes Gouken), Sagat, Zangief, T.Hawk, most of the charge characters (besides Chun-Li), El Fuerte, Yun, Yang, Cammy, Fei Long, and Rose. I've tried Hugo, but he's too darn slow.

I'm also a Mario Kart enthusiast. I own nearly ever iteration of Mario Kart (the one that's missing is Double Dash) and I'm good in the ones that I play (especially Mario Kart Wii). Since ProtonJon's Mario Party 4 dominance in TRG, my go-to character is Waluigi (or Luigi if I ever touch Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64, and Daisy and Funky Kong in Wii).

Predictably, I really enjoy the Zelda series. I'm kinda young at 18, so I only really enjoy the newer games (the DS games, Skyward Sword, and A Link Between Worlds, though A Link to the Past is also up there (hence my name, heh) and I own Twilight Princess, Wind Waker (HD), Minish Cap and Ocarina of Time, but never completed them, mostly because I know their plot and it isn't fun from there :c). I rep the series a lot with quite a few Zelda themed t-shirts, the Zelda Wii U gamepad, the Zelda 3DS, and (probably my favourite) V-MODA M100 headphones with gold plates that have the Triforce on them.
  • What other communities are you a part of?
I'll be attending Ryerson University for Electrical Engineering, if that counts. I'm part of that group. Fortunately, that also means that after classes for the day, I'll be really close to where the weekly Smash tournaments are in downtown Toronto (as Falcon would say it; YES!).

I like you already - SF, Mario Kart and LoZ are all things you like and appreciate. Good man! :shades:

Ha ha, no need. You've already written a good deal more than the average introduction thread.
