I was always a big fan of the Mario games when I was younger. I also loved Yoshi, because my favorite color was green and I loved dinosaurs. So, not knowing who any other characters in the game were besides Mario characters, Link and the Pokemon, Of course I chose
Yoshi.
I sucked as Yoshi. In Melee, I continued to play as Yoshi, although I started getting better. But one day, a little after the time I got Melee, I woke up... and I was a Metroid fan. So I tried out
Samus, stuck with her, and completely dominated at the game against all my friends. They've all given up on the game because they can't beat me.
When Brawl came out, I thought
Meta Knight looked like a cool character and I started to play as him more. Then I realized that playing as Meta Knight, people would think I'm a noob player and that my skill is fake since Meta Knight is apparently "broken." So I am a Samus fan to this day, and I intend to keep it that way for a while.
