Hi, I'm a veteran member of this forum, which was formerly known as "DS Ultimate," then "Nintendo 3DS Community". I joined DSU at the age of 13, when the Nintendo DS was new. My passion was hacking the launch title game "Super Mario 64 DS" using the Action Replay--and that's how I discovered this forum!
I quickly became a dedicated member of DSU, which was later renamed to Nintendo 3DS Community (corresponding with the newly released Nintendo 3DS.) I made a lot of friends, some of whom I still speak with (Porkman, GreenWolf, DarkYoungLink and Duckdude). I still have a deep, nostalgic fondness for the sense of community that I experienced here. (The DS is still my favourite console.)
If you were wondering “what happened to NC after that?” I'll tell ya. As a young adult, I was living on my own. I didn’t have the budget for video games, so the WiiU just came and went... and suddenly, I was in my 20s. By then, things were slowly getting better and that’s when the Nintendo Switch was released. I got one a couple years later and I bought:
Super Mario Odyssey,
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (I got pretty good at that)
Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition,
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate,
Super Mario Maker 2,
and Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Then my job took off somewhat and I was able to buy more Switch games. Being able to expand my library of games completely renewed my passion for gaming and the sense of community that I felt back in the N3DSC days.
And now, as of 2024 I've got quite a few games, which is something I've always wanted. I’m currently restoring my GBA and DS Pokemon game collection. You can track my progress here: www.youtube.com/awedecaiplays
-Awedecai Plays is my gaming channel! I post Let’s Play videos, where I play an exaggerated version of myself.

That’s my lil’ life story. If you read this far and if you wanna reach out, my name is Awedecai on all social media platforms.
Thank you for reading! All the best,
