I departed PlanetSuzy on October 2014 and branched out to other forums, settling on reddit and GBATemp. The same month I got my first 3DS consoles, and I learned about a flashcard that could play 3DS ROMs. I think this forum indicated that to me, but my understanding was off because I thought R4 cards played 3DS ROMs. I was wrong, but it turned out to be a good purchase years later when I wanted to do playthroughs of Gen 4 games. I got Gateway in December 2014 and I'm very sure this forum enlightened me to that. Probably deep down inside I wanted a replacement for the WWE Fans thread in that forum, everyone talking about what they love, wrestling in that case, and just being total buds, knowing each other almost too well. I have yet to experience a true successor, but it's been close lately, not through here of course. I will say this year opened me up to appreciating certain people more, not just devs, so it's a start, the common theme not being wrestling, but Pokemon.
