The worst thing that happened to me was being bullied for playing Nintendo games.

Back in middle school, my classmates were bro gamers and called me a Pussy or “You’re a such a kid” for playing rated E or T games.It was ps3, Wii, x360 generation, so owning only the Nintendo systems was considered not cool.

At first, they just teased me about my interest. Since I was nice and weak, I remained silent. Becsuse of that, more classmates joined in and increased the intensity from vocablly abuse to physically abuse.

I got punched at the playground and got pushed down the stairs. I was able to bear until one day.

One day, they told to man up and play some COD or other FPS games. I kindly refused them, and said that Pokemon were more suitable for my interest. For some reason, my words made them mad. They punched me and threw my DS into the the toilet. I picked up the ds and my game cartridge into my other system, and unfortunately, the cartridge was damaged and all of my saves were gone.

It was a Pokemon heart gold cartridge which i had just completed the pokedex. I was mad and punched the bullies until they cried. Before being send to the principal’s office, I said them “Don’t you ever underestimate my power or mess with me, or else I would final smash you.”

Every time I recall this incident, I’m ashamed about my stupidity and immaturity when I was a middle schooler. But my love and belief of Nintendo games remain the same or even stronger.

Now, whenever people troll me for liking Nintendo, I just respond them “So what? I play Kibry and Pokemon like a mature adult. If you disliked what I do, just get over it.”
