Just kidding, I did kinda get defensive of what you were saying to dudebro about the whole "don't get off track" thing you were going at and your - reps should inform you why...

Wait what did I do?

I found a link in Wikipedia.org
in the Sonic 2 game gear page.

**david man45** · 10-22-2008, 07:11 PM

Weird way to get to this site....

**samejamesbond** · 10-22-2008, 08:36 PM

Friend told me of the site

**Blue Shoe 2** · 10-26-2008, 12:57 AM

somone on halo PC told me.

**DrunkN** · 11-10-2008, 01:46 PM

Heard about it from Tenser and I think Trakmasta on the EVG forums

**jim5cents** · 12-01-2008, 02:45 PM

Joined EVG in 06 I think, had heard about RU from almost the beginning of my time over there. Had actually signed up for RU in 07 or early 08, but didn't dive in. A couple of weeks ago, Tenser made the suggestion that I should check things out over here. I'll immediately give RU credit on the better game selection, the high score system, and the feistiness of the forums.

Yeah we sure are sassy over here.

I was searching for gaming sites while at school one day. 90% of the websites were blocked, and I happened to come across RU. That was almost 3 months ago haha.

**DoctorRyanB1** · 12-18-2008, 09:06 AM

I found this place through everyvideogame.com. I really like all the games you guys got here.

**Blue Shoe 2** · 12-28-2008, 12:27 AM

i was posting the three ways i found this site. i never went to it until my wife told me to go here.

**jeckel22** · 01-01-2009, 11:32 PM

About 2 years ago my job required sitting for 12 hours. I got bored and wanted to look for a game site. I found a few but they were always shared with other co-workers and they would end up being blocked after about a week. I eventually found onVGP.com and it is all history from there. Thinking back on it...two years....lots of good times.

**Flashes back to memories on DDQ**

**Dudebro** · 01-02-2009, 12:00 AM

Time to make some new memories Jeckel.

**CatalystiCam** · 01-02-2009, 12:03 AM

I was desperate to find nes games online 2 or 3 years after our nes got thrown out, and was googleing all sorts of stuff like free nes and nes games free then I brought nes games we still had upstairs and googled some of the games and then I googled Smash T.V. and EVG came up so I played as a guest for two months then made and account to try to get help with a lost game, then eventually ended up taking part in the forums, after that I left, somehow forgetting about the site again, I was gone for 2 years or so then I was doing some research on dreamcast and found things on a new system, somehow I ended up finding a top 10 easiest bosses video on youtube, and wanted others opinions, so I remembered EVG and went back and created a top 5 hardest bosses ever on a new acount called Cam3ron36 losing my old account, I heard a lot of talk about RU and Jim5cents annoyed me so I retreated to ru to escape his jerkish coments, of course I still go to evg.

Memories can never be replaced. Only forgotten...which reminds me of the POW/MIA slogan.

We will never forget.

**Dudebro** · 01-02-2009, 05:13 AM

I didn't say you had to forget the old memories. It's not like you're going to run out of space, unless you're an android or something.

**Metricus** · 01-04-2009, 06:00 PM

I know some people here have been here from the start, but I was wondering were everyone else came from. I found RU while looking for Metroid 2: Return of Samus online, and found that I could play it here, because at the time I didn't have any way to get an emulator.

**Blue Shoe 2** · 01-05-2009, 04:14 PM

My Wife told me to post how she got here so,

i found this site when someone on sonicroms told me to go here. my favorite color is red.

**EJT2012** · 01-28-2009, 06:48 PM

Well, I used to watch my brother play games on onVGP all the time, and one day (after it became retrouprising)I decided that I wanted to have an account. And now I am here.

Who is your brother? It's been a long while since there has been a reference to ol' onVGP.

If I remember correctly, he is TNT's little bro.

**EJT2012** · 01-29-2009, 04:29 PM

Score! You got a card!

**DrunkN** · 01-31-2009, 06:36 PM

EVG members, specifically Tenser. Hmmm, perhaps I should give him more respect.

**SSBBrawler** · 02-11-2009, 09:55 PM

I just got lucky. but am I ever glad I found it. I was Googling for an Earthbound ROM, nowhere could I find it. I was going through pages, and I saw that the summary underneath retrouprising.com said something about Earthbound Zero and the word "free". Since I was planning on looking for that next, I took the chance and wound up on Earthbound Zero. After playing it a couple days, my file was lost. So I created an account to ask Kong why. He said it was because anyone could delete my file since I was a guest then. So I started playing Earthbound Zero since. Then I bought an Earthbound game. Then Kong helped me get a Mother 3 ROM. So I'm planning on staying. Even if I don't play most of the other games on this site.

So like I said before, it was just a matter of luck, and good timing.
