I started my forum days on NSider, NoA/Nintendo Power's official Nintendo forums (Actually, JoelCool was another NSider member, so you could say that he's my oldest VGC friend 
). Awesome forum community with great members and discussion. Unfortunately, around the time when Nintendo Power was cut off from NoA and given to Future, they decided to close up NSider. To this day, Nintendo of America still doesn't have an official forum. It's really kind of sad... (although some of the other exiles have started up NSider2 and N-Sider... but I haven't bothered with those communities.)
As for how I came upon VGChartz? Well, NSider members used VGChartz when looking at how Wii and DS were performing during the early days, so I was somewhat familiar with the site once NSider closed down. I was looking for a new home, and I definitely liked the discussion I saw here, so I decided to join up in April 2008. Haven't looked back since.
