To any who have decided to view my page, hello and welcome. On Fandom, I go by the alias The Humble Nintendo Master, but you can also just call me Humble or HNM for short if you like. I just consider myself someone who appreciates a wide variety of different types of art and entertainment. However, I'm especially enthusiastic about anything with good storytelling, fleshed out and relatable characters, and poignant themes/messages... bonus points if it truly touches me emotionally. Naturally, Nintendo and most things associated with it have been some of my most prominent and long-lasting interests, especially the Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda franchises for all the timeless excitement, wonder and joy they've brought into my life. However, make no mistake, my interests and hobbies are actually pretty eclectic and extend far beyond that.
If you want to find me on Fandom, I'm mostly active in the Villains and Heroes Wiki communities, as well as the steadily growing network or moral alignment wikis that have been created over the past few years. However, I've been pretty active on a few others as well, and I've edited sparsely on numerous others at some point or another since, due to my aforementionted eclectic interests, I eventually end up visiting many others that have been made about franchises I like, and while many of them are well-maintained enough that there's not a whole lot to do, I'm always up for making the odd minor correction, improvement or addition. In short, my many interests and casual visits to Fandom eventually inspired me to create an account and become a user, and it's my sincere hope that, especially with all the negative, toxic and hateful content that can be found in various other places on the web, that I can end up making a positive difference in this enormous online community, even if it's just a small one.
Anyway, here's a list of what I like from different mediums of entertainment so that you can get an idea of what I'm into and if we share any of the same tastes. After all, that is what Fandom is about in general, and don't even see it as a complete list since these are just most of the best examples I can think of.
