Hello, I'm supernintendo64, except not really because that name was taken by someone else so here I'm supernintendo128. I've been on TV Tropes for about 10 years. I usually do small edits or add entries to existing pages but I make actual work pages every now and then. I brought two tropes to the Trope Repair Shop and opened a clean-up thread for VindicatedByHistory.

Outside of this site, I'm an introverted, possibly autistic nerd and weeaboo extraordinaire who is trying to be more social. I work as a full-time software engineer at some company that decidedly ''isn't'' Google. Sometimes I code for fun. I made a program that can extract hidden CD tracks, and I'm trying to get into game development. My short-term career goal is to get into a FAANG company (or Microsoft).

But this isn't [=LinkedIn=]. Outside of work and programming, I like to play guitar, video games, cook, and watch anime. I'm also trying to get into Dungeons and Dragons. I've been playing guitar for about eight years. I have a Les Paul and a Stratocaster. I'm currently learning bass since my grandpa gifted me an old Gretsch bass. I used to be really into classic rock but my tastes have since shifted towards emo and post-hardcore music. My favorite band is Title Fight. I am not in a band right now but I would like to change that.

I love watching anime, but I kept it to myself until recently since my brother thinks that AllAnimeIsNaughtyTentacles. I've been watching anime since I was 12 when I began watching ''Anime/SonicX'' (which imo isn't nearly as good as I remember it, even in Japanese), but I didn't really get into the medium until my cousin introduced me into ''Anime/DragonBallZKai''. My favorite anime are ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'', ''Manga/BocchiTheRock'', and ''Manga/ChainsawMan''.


Aside from anime, I enjoy vintage TV shows like ''Series/TheAndyGriffithShow'' and ''Series/{{MASH}}'', but one of my favorite shows is ''Series/BreakingBad''. I'm currently going through ''Series/BetterCallSaul'' and I already watched ''Film/ElCamino''. I watched a lot of Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network growing up. My favorite cartoon (and still is) is pre-movie ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants''.

I've been playing video games for as long as I can remember. The first video game I ever played, which remains one of my favorites, was ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3''. My first game system was a Super Nintendo (hence the username) that a childhood friend gifted me, but my first "modern" game system (and my favorite platform) was a Nintendo [=GameCube=]. People often ask me what genres I enjoy, but really I play of genres and I don't like to restrict myself to a certain category. Other than ''Mario 3'', my favorite video games are ''VideoGame/Persona5'' and ''VideoGame/BlackMesa''. During high school and early college, I wanted to work in the video game industry but changed my mind upon learning the poor working conditions game developers endure. I made a ''VideoGame/{{Breakout}}'' clone in Game Maker when I was in middle school (unfortunately I no longer have a copy). I'm still interested in making video games as a hobby.

Lately I've been cooking a lot since I live alone and am trying to save money. I have a Hello Fresh subscription and I enjoy watching food [=YouTubers=] such as Adam Ragusea and Binging With Babish.

Also I love cats and have owned two. The first one passed from old age, he was 13, the second is still alive and I still have him. I'm thinking about getting a third cat. I am left-leaning and am bisexual.

Thanks for reading!
