Synopsis

Having been a personality within the MAME Scene for many years in his 20's, he entered the GBA flash card scene back in 2004, although silently. Upon the emergence of the Nintendo DS, he became more and more involved. He was first recruited by Ravi (a.k.a. kfree), owner of ModChipMan, in order to produce flash card reviews for the retail site. After a disagreement between them, and the popularity of his sole review of the G6 Lite, he was then recruited to join GBATemp as part of the Magazine Staff. His responsibilities among the staff included posting GBA and DS Scene news as well as reviewing flash cards. His reviews have been as praised as equally as criticized. He was on the sample list for several flash card companies, such as GBAlpha (G6/M3) and SuperCard Team. He hopes to continue to explore and review the newest flash cards in order to give community members the means of seeing which product will suit their individual needs. Usually, once done with a review, he gives the review samples away. He does so happily. Since December of 2007, TheSpade stepped down as a contributor due to employment elsewhere. He returned during the summer and was made an IRC Operator for the new GBATemp IRC network.
