SuperMario64DS is a member of the Mario Kart Wii hacking community who often attempted to create a wide variety of unique ports, as well as original tracks from time to time.

I live in the UK and I do "computer stuff" for a living. My time here largely influenced my career choice, and exposed me to a variety of things and allowed me to train in certain areas I may have never been exposed to otherwise.

=== Why? ===

I first discovered the existence of custom tracks in 2010 after coming across a video of [[MKDasher]]'s port of ''[[GCN Daisy Cruiser]]''. Several weeks later, I 'hacked' my Wii via '''Bathaxx'''.
+
I don't feel comfortable with the previous attribution dispute. I would much rather avoid the conflict aspect, which is what led me to dissociate from this community for over half a decade. This is not meant to be a commentary on past events - I only want to release tracks peacefully without those fears attached. No further comments needed on this matter.
  
−
In March 2011, I signed up for an old Mario Kart forum (then considered the 'hub' for custom tracks). At the time, the release of [[CTools]] was literally days away and [[Custom Mario Kart]] had just opened - I had arrived at the most convenient time possible.
+
By this point no further work should be needed on any of my previous releases anyway - they've either been thoroughly replaced or patched by this point in time.
  
−
After several 'hiccups' of notable proportions, [[Jungle Island]] was finally released the very next year. I later went on to create much more successful tracks such as [[DS Shroom Ridge]], and, most notably, [[GP Mario Beach]].

Thanks to all the wonderful people who helped along the way - you know who you are! I had fun participating in this community and getting to know a variety of people from different backgrounds, skill sets, and creative perspectives. Though some wandered off long ago, I hope all of their lives turn out wonderfully, and they remember me and their time here as fondly I do. It's surprising to think it's been seven years. Good luck everyone, and if you would ever like to get back in touch, I can [https://plus.google.com/u/0/101389121689992765471 always be reached] via message.
