introduction
Over the years, many people have tried to understand Thomas and many people have failed in their attempts. Starting from early childhood, even his own mother often could not understand what her son was talking about and simply dubbed the name of this unique language Thomas spoke as "Nintendoese". Of course to Thomas, the language of "Nintendoese" made perfect sense to him and he spoke it quite often on regular basis. Thomas simply could not understand why other people couldn't speak "Nintendoese" or the complex reasons behind why the individual perhaps did not express interest in following along in a typical "Nintendoese" conversation.
