<br><br>(Hmmmm...You know, I think I deserve to write my own user page in the first person, so I think I will!) Hello, and welcome to the userpage of me, FerreTrip! I am currently 17, and, as the userbox I so laborously copied from [[User:Chicken7]]'s page explains, I am forced to using my Wii to write things on here and surf the web. Luckily, I have an old iMac keyboard I can use with it, so it's all good.<br>

I first became aquanted with the bear and bird via...well, I THINK a Christmas present, but my earliest memory is of going down into the basement, where the Nintendo 64 was set up, and playing it one rainy day. After I began playing, it stuck with me my entire life. (Is it just me, or did we all (my generation, at least) play the really good stuff when we were really young? Or is it, really, did we play games just because they're fun at that time?) I remember me and my sister, Annie, would play it a lot just for fun. She enjoied going to [[Click Clock Wood]] and playing as the bee transformation. My favorite stages were probably [[Treasure Trove Cove]], [[Clanker's Cavern]], [[Bubblegloop Swamp]](I guess, despite those evil pirhannas), and [[Freezeezy Peak]]. The game also helped me become attatched to two things that have lasted my gaming career: My love of cheat codes and the fact that, whenever given the chance, I claim file slot #3. (Interesting story behind that: One day, I was about to play my first file when I accidentially deleted it! To ensure I didn't do it again, I thought that, if I put it alllllll the way to file # 3, I would be more awake and less likely to accidentially hit the delete button. From the moment I finished that file 100% onwards, I have always chosen file #3, or at least a file that isn't #1. (This file did end up getting erased one night, along with all my other data, as punishment for refusing to wash dishes.)

I got into Banjo-Tooie as one of the first sequels that I had been highly anticipating. I was so eager to play it, I stayed up the entire night I got it--my first all-nighter, as well. I got it as a birthday present. The all-nighter got me all the way up to [[Witchyworld]] before my sister woke up and, after I told her I'd been up all night instead of having just woken up, said that she should get a turn since I got a really long one. It also plays into my life's tragedy (I think everyone's got a life's tragedy--it's all the bad stuff that happens all the time, basically. Your life's comedy is the opposite, of course.)...however, as it IS a part of the drama of my life, I won't go into it--but I will say this: I realized a little while ago that, no, I didn't do it from depression--I just wanted to play a really good game I'd been waiting for for forever. X3 My favorite worlds are probably [[Mayahem Temple]], [[Glitter Gulch Mine]], Witchyworld, [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]], and [[Hailfire Peaks]]. I think I thought [[Cloud Cuckooland]] was too hard(it DOES have the hardest button-mashing minigame in existance--and this was before I suddenly got good at button-mashing), and [[Terrydactyland]] wasn't really my thing back then. I also liked [[Jinjo Village]] for its music and the Jinjos' cuteness. This game's lasting effect on me was probably mostly my (though not as pronounced, now) love of boss fights. I think I also felt a little let down by the half-a--er, -baked way they "resolved" [[Stop 'n' Swop]].
