User:3Dejong



Hi there!, fellow gamers, and thanks for taking the time to read my page! I am Daniel David DeJong, known as 3dejong or 3D to YOU, or as Son Who Plays Video Games And Is On The Computer Too Much to my mom and dad. Read on to discover more about me, and remember, have fun! You can copy any pictures and/or userboxes here. Also, please feast your eyes on my sprite comic, check out what's happening in my life (yes, I have one), read a bio of ME, or learn about the other guys here! I try to update my page every day, so keep checking back!

I am an EXTREME Mario and Nintendo fan (I live, eat, breathe and sleep them), so this website is the perfect way to vent my knowledge! (I joined at 3:30 pm, September 18, 2006.) One thing you should know: I. HATE. SONY. AND. MICROSOFT. Actually, Crash and Spyro are really fun, innovotive titles to me, and Sony creates great games (the PSP is pretty cool, like a gaming PDA) but what totally ticks me off is the fact that Sony pretty much passes their system off as an "entertainment system". Sheeesh. Like, Playstation is a GAMING CONSOLE! Sure, snappping a rented DVD onto your PS2 is great and convienient, but still, if you want good DVD backup, go buy a DVD/VHS system. With Microsoft, well, that's another story altogether. I won't beat up on Halo, I've seen screenshots of it (beautiful graphics) and I've heard it has a great, engaging storyline, so well, okay, I'll say it, Halo's pretty cool! The thing about it, though, is that it's, like, Xbox's only first-party game! Any others I have yet to see. Xbox has cool, intuitive, classic controls and lush graphics, but that's not all that a game is. Plus, Xbox 360 is like an "improved" version of Xbox. Bleah. With Nintendo, every system that comes out is an OBVIOUS improvement on the proir. Don't see any of that happening with Playstation or Microsoft. But whatever, maybe I'm being too critical. Maybe Xbox IS a cool platform (if you like adult-ish games). Maybe built-in DVD support for the Playstation IS a big plus. Whatever. I'm a Nintendo person. But don't let that keep you away from me! If you think I'm being really, really unjust drop me a line on my Talk Page! (that little tab that says "Discussion" on the top of the page.)

Wanna see how I did on Super Mario Bros. HQ's Purity Test? Here's my results:

132 points out of 253: Obssesed: Mario is a religion to me!

Me
I, as you can see, am 3dejong. I'm a teenager trying to make sense of life, philisophy, homework, Wikisyntax...... and WHAT Homestar Runner is saying. I REALLY enjoy ANY Mario or Nintendo game (except Resident Evil), but I don't care WHAT platform a game is for, as long as it's fun! I'm saving like crazy and counting the days until the Wii comes out! Mario Galaxy ROCKS! I also enjoy laughing with any humorous book or comic strip (Calvin and Hobbes, Dog eat Doug, Foxtrot, and Space is the Place are just a few of my favorites.) I can beat ANY Mario game to pieces in at most, a month, and no games can last more then five weeks around me (I completed Super Mario World and Yoshi's Island 100%, all secrets, all red coins, all flowers, EVERY Dragon Coin. Also, I completed New Super Mario Bros. 100% in two days. Really. Honestly.). I am on the computer sooooooo much.. Once my mom announced that I was spending WAAAAY to much time on the internet (duh). I answered "The page you are looking for is currently unavailible. Please retype the address, or you may need to adjust your browser settings." She promptly booted me outside.

My first exposure to Mario came when I played Super Mario Bros: Classic NES Series on a friend's GBA SP. For years I had known, vaugley, that Nintendo, Sega, and Playstation were video game makers, and that Mario was a famous gaming icon. One of my cousins had gotten ahold of a new SP with Pac-Man Collection and Piglet's Big Game, and I spent many happy hours playing both. But Super Mario Bros. exposed me forever to the bright, sidescrolling world of Mario and friends, never to leave. I discovered this page while surfing Wikipedia. At first I thought, "Sweet! A cool place about EVERYTHING Mario!" But later, I realized that one could MAKE AN ACCOUNT... and my life has never been the same! LOL. I've become a permanent eyesore here, and, somehow, have gotten ADDICTED to typing stuff! Anyway, I'm pretty much the handyman for anything that does NOT involve stuff like "'s>". I use my handy scanner to rip stuff out of Player's Guides (like in the Toady page, for instance), and use my huge understanding of all things Mario to make walkthroughs, articles, pics, etc. If you're new here, talk to me! Please! I can answer any question about Mario, and maybe a few programming questions..... But no questions like this:  , please! I love to get mail! I hope you'll give me a message soon, and become a member here! I have (duh), and it's great. But what about the "other guys"? Well....

The "other dudes"
Porplemontage: The "head honcho". ANY Wiki questions, bug him. He also created the DK Wiki, duh. Which is now a portal here...

Paper Jorge: A very knowledgable and fun guy. He knows a ton about Mario, and more about Wiki stuff than I ever will!

Wayoshi: A fun guy with a ton of Wiki knowledge. He's one of the most active users. Talk to him if you need help. Or, most likely, he'll talk to you!

Knife: Once opon a time, there was a user named Spike. He was a cool user, but suddenly, he changed his name to Knife! But still, fun guy.

Monty Mole: Another good guy who knows a lot about both gaming and programming. He's helped me a lot in the past...

Yoshi626: A nice guy who's also a guru on Zelda and Star Wars!

WarioLoaf: He.... defies..... explanation.... He is, in a few words, the most random user here. But he has lots of knowledge, and is always up for a random conversation, especially about Wario.....

Parayoshi: A good guy to play a Wi-Fi match with. He knows more about Wikisyntax than I do. Ask him about it! He also is a big Yoshi fan, like me.

Yoshi Mastar: A "Mariologist" and another Wiki whiz. He also has an impressive collection of sprites, which he shows off in his sprite comics.

The World's GREATEST Griled Cheese Sandwich!
Yes, I have made what I beleive is THE GREATEST toasted cheese sandwich EVER.

Directions for making: Ingredients:


 * Block of Tillamook Medium Cheddar Cheese
 * Two slices of San Luis Sourdough Deli Sourdough Bread
 * Salted butter

How to make:' Slice cheese medium thin, then set aside. Butter bread slightly, then add cheese. Make it look like a normal sandwich, then butter the top semi-thickly. (The secret!) Then toast/grill/fry until nut brown and sizzling, done all the way through. If grilling/frying, butter BOTH sides. Eat with gusto!

Keep Gaming, 3dejong (This site ROCKS!)

Oh, and by the way, my name has a silent j, so 3dejong is pronounced 3de-yong. Most people pronounce it 3de-J-ong. Weird name, huh? You can just call me 3D. I'm part Dutch, and I live in Sunny (part time) California.
