Welcome! Introduce yourself

Something that looks exactly like a thingy*?

*Bit of Blackadder for a Friday evening, there.

I died of laughter as a result of that blackadder reference, he he thingy

You... died of laughter? As in, literally?



Tuck in, ladies and gents!

That's beautiful, thanks for sharing (I'm still dead btw)

My face was visible from space, NASA called and told me.

My face is bigger, seagulls told me can see it from up on top of Tingle Island, I no lie!

Hello forum people. The artist formally known as NGamer Matthew here.

Been meaning to sign up for a while, decided to do it during a lull at work. Should be writing a Mario & Luigi preview, but the words aren't coming today!

Look forward to discussing all things Ninty with ya.

Truly an honour! Great to have you here, Matthew. Hope you'll stick around for a bit longer than Chris did... (directs stare towards CVG)

Although Chris is obviously very busy and we should be grateful to have him at all yes yes I know.

Hello! On most internet-y thangs I go by Grackler (in an attempt to weed out any N64/NGC readers from the digital ranks!). Doesn't seem appropriate here though, so I'll go by my old CVG handle.

I've never been much of a forum browser, but in the absence of Nintendo Gamer recently, I find myself looking for somewhere to engage in a bit of Nintendo waffle. Then, like the Bat symbol, the Holy Star, or the blue road sign pointing the way out of Swindon; I saw Balladeer's CVG signature and followed this beacon of hope to find this interweb place!

So...where's the free biscuits at?

I think GNamer the Grackler ate them all. (He's the one up there next to the title.) Nice to see you here, Zaphod - we're much nicer than CVG Article Comments at any rate! Will we see Deku Link making a return?

*places mask on face, wails in agony*

...
Yes!

Woo!

Howdy Zaphod, welcome to the good ship GNamer, ferrying passengers from the CVG Port daily.

EDIT: I didn't even see Matthew up there! Welcome good sir! How's the world of Nintendo journalism treating you?

Welcome to zaphod & of course the fanta drinking, lion bar eating, 90% giving, wii music playing, the man who makes people eat his hush puppies........*drum roll* Matthew "The Castle" Castle.

Good to have ye's here.

Welcome Zaphod and Matthew, always a pleasure to have new members.

Welcome, Matthew and Zaphod!

It's great that we've still got new folk arriving, and some very high-profile ones among 'em. It's ace to have you here.

awesomedude: As informal as we are here, can we kindly warn you about the dangers of posting too much information on the internet? We want everyone to have fun here, but most of all to remain safe whilst doing so. I'm just going to edit your post a bit.

Edit:

Er, looks like I've been beaten to it...

Er... good luck with that...

See edit.

Sorry about that, awesomedude. But what Stu says is right - it's very unwise to give out personal information over the Internet. Even if all our members are trustworthy, the posts are publically visible, and you don't know who might be looking in.

Thanks for the kind welcome! I was worried it'd be flaming torches/pitchfork time for this vile defector.

It is treating me well. People still paying me to write terrible jokes/nonsense opinions, so I can't complain. Miss the good ship NGamer - natch - but am happy to be writing about Nintendo at what is an interesting time for the company.

"Interesting", in that the Internet is convinced that the Wii U's about to go down the tubes? Not to mention that they're about to become software-only, neatly ignoring the trailblazing 3DS...

And for what it's worth, you and Chris were the best bits of the issue of ONM that I laid hands on.

- natch -.

It brings a warm and fuzzy feeling to my heart hearing that word uttered by an old NGamer staff member.

Glad to hear everything is still going well Matthew. Looking forward to reading any posts you make here, it'll be grand to have you join the discussions.
