Who I Am
Hello and welcome to my personal site for opinions, thoughts and ideas originating from yours truly. My name is Charles and my online alias differs but a lot of the time it either has something to do with Kioshi or Taichi nowadays. I am a 19 year old male who has a lot of interest in not only video games but technology in general. One of my minor goals in life is to code a game of my own from scratch. If you're reading this and the last sentence talking about coding my own game, it means I've not started.
Japanese culture and language is something I have a great interest in as well, ranging from dishes to lifestyle to many other things. My favorite anime shows would be Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo, Haiyore! Nyaruko-san series, MM!, Strawberry Panic and Toradora!. My life goal is to become a Mangaka which, if you don't know, is basically someone who draws Manga for a living. I have a great passion for it that I just can't put into words.

My Smash Brothers Experience
Ever since 1999, I've been a huge fan of the Smash Brothers series. As a kid, I even went so far as to create silly pages of moves that characters who starred in Smash Brothers 64 imaginably had in their own games (like Super Mario 64). One thing I've not gotten into much whatsoever, being at the time of writing this (11/17/2013), from around the time I first got Smash Brothers 64 til recently was the competitive scene. I plan to do so come Super Smash Brothers Wii U and 3DS and until then I've been, lately, practicing many of the past game's advanced techniques. While doing this, I am also getting more acquainted with characters I've not played much as, including Ganondorf and King Dedede.
I have bright hope for Super Smash Brothers 4 and can't thank Sakurai enough for this series along with Kirby and the revival of Kid Icarus.

Video Game Memories, Favorites and Current
Basically ever since I learned to walk as a toddler, I have been a gamer. It all started from, what I can recall, Donkey Kong for the NES. My top 5 favorite games of all time from most loved to very appreciated are Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars for the SNES, Super Smash Brothers Melee for the GameCube, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for the Wii U/3DS, Yoshi's Island for the SNES and last but not least Super Mario 64 for the N64. Honorable mentions would be Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and Kirby Super Star Ultra. I've never played a lot of games outside of ones published and/or licensed by Nintendo so if anyone was wondering, there's that.
Lately, besides Smash Brothers, I've taken my attention to Sonic Lost World (demo, getting the store copy sometime in the near future) and have my eyes on Super Mario 3D World. Despite what others have said about Sonic being abysmally slow, even when holding down the run button, I've found him not to be as slow as they have exaggerated him to be. With the parkour in mind along with the heavier focus on platforming, it's a justifiable speed if you ask me. I can't wait to play the full version of Sonic Lost World or play Super Mario 3D World.
