My avatar - Character from Final Fantasy 6

Background Information

I'm interested in computer and programming since I am 14 and discovered programming language LOGO at school at age of 8.
I love playing video games and wished to become a video games programmer but never reach that goal, instead I'm developing by myself some website and firefox extension.
I learned : logo, basic, a little of C/C++, html, php, mysql, javascript, xul.

I met KiVan when he was just a member on a site and tiny forum that proposed gba roms.
He then proposed to make his own site with the last 10 released GBA roms. I followed him to his site, and now to GBAtemp since that time.

I'm member 746 at GBAtemp, but never posted on the forum for the first two years.
I started to become active with the coming of the Nintendo DS, usually to help people using software and hardware.

I became a GBAtemp Moderator in January 2011, then became a Global Moderator, and retired as former staff member as of March 2020.

Since 2012, I'm learning C/C++ and try few things in homebrew development.

I'm keeping a detailed presentation thread updated if you want more information about me.

My completed games

There are still a lot of games which I would like to play and complete.

I played most of them only few hours long ago because I miss time to complete them and would like to play them fully at least once, but I'm spending most of my time on GBAtemp instead of playing :D
