No, this isn't a wind-up. 24 hours after getting it, I'm kind of bored of it.

There's nothing wrong with the console at all. Really like it. Just for some reason I'm well, just BORED of it. Perhaps it's a few more games that are needed but right now I've got a very desirable Door Stop.

Ended up playing Fifa 2005 and Project Gotham 2 on the Xbox instead...

If it could use Wireless Broadband now I probably wouldn't have started this post.

Annoying thing is that I've got a wireless network in my house already so I could theoretically go online with it now too! Use it for my Xbox and it's great.

Nobody you know has one? Bummer. Kinda same here. My Sister has one, and we had a muck-around with Pictochat and Mario but I hardly go over these days.

I hope they do make a feature to connect via wireless Broadband - that would be fantastic :)

It's really hard to explain actually! I'm kind of annoyed with myself that I've allowed myself to feel 'bored' of it.

Mario is great, really enjoy that. Although I've probably played on the Mini-Games as much as the main game.

Metroid I rather like but the lack of actual missions in single player mode means there's only so much you can do with that by yourself.

So perhaps it's a simple need for more games. I've ordered WarioWare and also Tiger Woods (to the disapproval of some people I'm sure!). But looks like it may be 2 or 3 weeks til I get hold of those.

Would be good if I could get the odd multiplayer session on PictoChat or the games - that would definitely help.

What's boring you about it? I admit I'm currently not drawn to the DS, but that's because I'm waiting impatiently for Wario Ware and not giving the games I have a chance.

I've only done the first 6 or so levels of Mario, completed Feel The Magic (currently at the end of Hard Mode) and did a grand total of 1 race on the groundbreakingly fantastic Asphalt GT.

Not too keen on Metroid Prime eiher, but it is only a training demo.

I suggest you try Feel The Magic. If that doesn't get you un-bored, nothing will! Granted, it's short, but it's damn good fun!
