OK, time for another blog entry. This time, I think I'll explain my username: poochythegenius
I am a big fan of Yoshi's Island. One reason I like it so much is that it is one of the first platformers I was good at. Unlike most platform games, I could get hit by enemies as much as I wanted and not die (the most common way I died in other games). After a while, I pulled out my GBA again and started playing. After I beat B- I mean, the final boss, I decided to try to finish the game 100%. It was at this point that I discovered Rainiac666 and his play-through of Yoshi's Island on YouTube. After watching only one video, I was hooked. I had to see more. Rainiac has now finished his playthrough, but I continued looking at his older videos. One video was for the near-infamous level "Poochy Ain't Stupid." "Poochy Ain't Stupid" is a scrolling level that involves the player riding a NPC dog named Poochy over lava pits that almost completely cover the floor of the stage. Stop and think about that. You're riding a dog that you can't control over lava, and on top of that, it's a scrolling stage. That's insane! In addition, you are trying to collect all of the items to get 100%-it's almost impossible! Anyhow, I watched the video and came to a conclusion: Poochy IS stupid. I quickly came up with the username 'poochythegenius,'and when I came to GameSpot, I realized it was the perfect name for my account.
Anyhow, that's how I got my username. do you like it?
