The Nintendo Boy Project

Hmm... it's literally really hard to thank everyone who has helped make this project possible... I guess you guys all know me, Jeffrey Vega, as the "Nintendo Boy," even though I'm not really him. But all story plots aside, I'm the guy behind the entire site... that's right... the ENTIRE site! Actually, it's all thanks to me. Haha. Just kidding. I must thank many my crew and significant others who have collaborated on the project. I really couldn't have done much without these fine people, and so I am truly grateful! :D So thanks for visiting all these fantastic people behind the site!

I am legit too lazy to type my own bio. Just know... I'm really cool or whatevs. :) ... as for my project credits? EVERYTHING. ;) But errr, yeah, I'll type this soon... no one cares about me, though!

Oh, Andrew. He's that guy that's always online on your friends list, and his lack of a social life gives you a lifelong internet friend. Wait... I'm describing myself. Ha, but really though. Andrew. It really did start on Gmail slash AIM... I asked him if I could come over with a friend (Josh) to shoot a video... and at the time we wanted him for his camera and iMovie software- HA, kidding, kidding. Always offering his place on random weekends to try and get a video done, has always been helpful to the growth of this project as well as our friendship with him. But really, Andrew has proven to be a great asset to this project, yet he has been known to... pretty much every time, get us all sidetracked with random jokes and random ideas for the video that we all know I would not want... that's Andrew for ya! Since the newer videos, Andrew has done a fantastic job wielding my new HD camcorder, and we'll have him as a cameraman for a long time to come! On top of filming the more recent videos now, he has had his share of appearing as the cameraman cameo, edited older videos, and also writes for the blog! :D

Josh. This guy's pretty much the other face of this site. Without Josh, who will Nintendo Boy have back-and-forths with? Ha, yes, Josh and I were close friends in high school (geez I feel old for saying that), and with two band classes, high level classes, etc, we were always around each other, making the craziest jokes possible, coming up with so many ideas for videos, some that we'll never get to film because there are simply too many! Ha, so obviously there's a lot we have in common, and a bunch of comedic chemistry... so naturally Josh was the first to be invited to be a part of my project... from then, we have a large fan base (well not really) of Josh Indech's laugh, and we all can agree that's much hotter slash funnier than I will ever be! Ha. We always joke around that Josh Indech is actually Josh "Coolman" Indech, and that he's the coolest guy in the entire world. You know why? Because he actually is! :O Oh sheesh, it's funny, just thinking about all the jokes we have! On top of all the fun times we all have, Josh is one of the most serious people I know... when we need to get down to business we do... aren't those the best kinds of people? Josh loves throwing in a blog post or two of his own thoughts, as well as doing his best to active on the site, and pretty much working on his acting skill - like he needs it! :D

What. A. Loser. Haha, but hey, saying things like that are the benefits of having a sibling... what am I saying? I say that to everyone! No but really though... Bridgett. How weird is it to write about my sister on my site..? I'm happy to say that she does visit often and supports what I do, even if that means just re-watching the same 3-second part of a Nintendo Boy video where I laugh really weird or something crazy like that! Haha! Actually, that really is funny! But anyway... Bridgett has helped right from the beginning, as she helped me film the first 3 videos... yes, those videos... that I never wanted to discuss again! After I put together a stable crew, she hasn't been part of anything else (she's lazy... just kidding)... but who knows, my sister is the only person I know will always be there for a fact, so she may come through for me when I least expect it! :D

It's Ellie! The best way I could describe Ellie is as if she were a roadie for a traveling band! No matter where we are, what we're doing, she's tagging along. But boy oh boy, does she do more than just the average roadie! Ellie has been here for every video that Josh has been in (I think they are secret lovers, to be honest), and she has helped so much behind the scenes, so you really wouldn't know. Not only has she appeared in some videos, she has done a lot of work behind the camera, such as... distracting us... and... laughing during shooting... and... and... actually, she's not helpful at all! Ha! Kidding. But really though, Ellie is a great friend, and always there to lend a hand. She is currently working on her own original adventures of Nintendo Boy & Jinx (Josh) in her own amazing art style! Ellie is also someone who has helped us way more than we could ask for... I can't count how many times she's given people rides (including myself!) to get to our shooting location! I hope to have Ellie around for a long time to come, since she seems to be the only one who legitimately laughs at my poor jokes! I can't apologize enough for having that large inflatable chair fall on you while you were drawing during the opening scene of Hiatus, thanks for putting up with us! :D

Laura Laura Laura. Besides the 3 original guys of Nintendo Boy, she is credited as the 4th, of the NB4 as seen in the Rock Band Documentary (RBD)! Laura has been more helpful than you could ever imagine. I first approached her after I saw her beautiful artwork, and wanted to see a rendition of the first video trilogy in a comic form... and woah, did she do a great job of it! Not only famous for her comics, she has also contributed in other art forms as well with the creation of the Nintendo Boy shirts, as seen in the RBD video... those are amazing shirts... you wish you had one, I know. But speaking of videos, she as countlessly devoted herself to the videos; Laura lugging her real drum set around for the RBD video... now that's dedication! Laura is also heavily involved on the site, known as the forum police, and contributing to areas on the site... I also love chatting with her on Gmail, as she has saved the site from my craziness, as well as I have bounced many ideas off of her. On top of our studying at 5 in the morning for our AP / IB Spanish final exam the day of (she did all the helping, lol!), we have had our share of long Gmail chats about the site of many great ideas! I've made a great friend, thanks to this site, and would be not what it is today without her! :D
