INTERVIEW #3

Greetings Andy! I’m glad you’re taking part in this interview to allow more people on the site to have insight on who you are and what you’re about! So let’s get this started.

Echo3: Is your name really Andy?

Andy: Actually, it's Andrew McCoy, but on the internet I choose to go by Andy.

Echo3: How old are you?

Andy: 15

Echo3: If you could choose any controller besides the wii u tablet, to play on any system for the rest of your life what would it be?

Andy: Probably either the Wii U pro controller or the X-Box 360 controller, as they both seem to be very high quality controllers.

Echo3: With your recent change of status to a mod has your view of the site changed, or do you consider yourself a regular member with abnormal abilities, lol?

Andy: I hope that no one will treat me any differently due to my recent promotion. I'm still the same Andy, and that's never changing. The only difference now is that instead of making a report, I can just drop the hammer myself when I see someone breaking the rules.

Echo3: What do you think the community needs in order to get its spark back its former glory (speaking about the recent repeat topics and less active users)?

Andy: I think one thing that will really help is to get one really big first party announcement from Nintendo; be it a 3D Mario, Zelda, Metroid, or anything from Retro or Monolith Soft. I think that as soon as one of their major franchises or developers is announced to have a game coming too the Wii U, we'll see a surge in activity on here.

Echo3: What do you think is the best show created?

Andy: Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy. That show was my childhood.

Echo3: What is your favorite Nintendo console and why?

Andy: The Wii. Not only was it my first Nintendo home console (other than an N64 that I had like, 2 games for), but the virtual console service and GameCube backwards compatibility allowed me to catch up on classics from previous generations.

Echo3: Are you also an active member of any other forum or online community?

Andy:I visit Brian's N00bpwners several times a day. I'll often be jumping back and fourth between here and there to see if there's any new content posted.

Echo3: Who do you think won e3 this year?

Andy: Ubisoft, definitely.

Echo3: Agreed!

Echo3: Do you think Nintendo is handling the Wii u correctly so far? If you could make any changes to the system or the way it’s being presented what would you do?

Andy:I think they're doing an OK job so far. If I had a say, I would just try to settle some of the unease surrounding the system's power and third party support.

Echo3: Who is your favorite video game developer and why?

Andy: I would have to say a tie between EAD Group 3 and Monolith Soft. EAD 3 because they've had a very consistent record of quality. Some of us may like one Zelda game over another, but are there any of us who can look at any individual entry to the series and truly call it a bad game? Monolith Soft because they just plain blew me away with Xenoblade. When I played that game, I felt like I had honestly gone back to my childhood.

Echo3: What are some of your life goals?

Andy: To become a video game developer, and to just be happy with my life.

Echo3: If you could create a videogame with 5 members on the site who would they be? Why?

Andy: Waller and Hinik, as they seem to be the go-to-guys for 3D rendering; Starrgrl24 for the musical compositions; Elric, as he seems like he could come up with an awesome story; and Caius, as he seems like he would really be good at coming up with great ideas for gameplay.

Echo3: Where are you from? Is there anywhere else you would rather live?

Andy: I'm from Eastern Kentucky. I'd definitely like to go to other places, but I'm not 100% sure as to where I'd want to live.

Echo3: Do you think the Wii was the best console of the last generation?

Andy: I think all three systems had their pros and cons this generation. In my personal experience, I found that there were more games that appealed to me as an individual on the Wii, but I will admit that support for the Wii could have been much, much better.

Echo3: Are…… you… a…a Brony?

Andy: I watched about... 20 episodes of the show I think. I'll admit it's a decent show, but it's just not the type of thing that I'd obsess over.

Echo3: What is your favorite Nintendo series? What is your favorite non-Nintendo series?

Andy: The Legend Of Zelda. Sly Cooper.

Echo3: If given the opportunity what game company would you choose to work for. What game company would you shut down?

Andy: I'd really like to work for EAD 3, Monolith Soft, Retro, or Sucker Punch. If I had to be a studio to turn down it probably be Infinity Ward.

Echo3: Do you have any talents?

Andy: Does being top of my class in Math and Science count?

Echo3: Not so much, but still impressive nonetheless lol.

Echo3: What kind of music do you listen to the most?

Andy: I don't really have any specific preference toward any specific genera of music. If I like the sound of it, I'll listen to it.

Echo3: Do you have anything else you would like to say to your fellow users of the WiiU to know before we end this interview?

Andy: I hope I manage to make everyone proud as Moderator. Everyone on here has been nice to me for the most part ever since I first signed on here almost a year ago, and I'm happy to be able to do this to give back to the community.

Okay Interview Over!
