Wahey, the lovely little game is now sitting in its oversized box besides my computer.

Is it just me or did this game sorta come out without a bang? I mean Animal Crossing got a bigger reception prior to release than this classic title.

I haven't seen one advert, most magazines are plastering Paper Mario or Donkey Konga on their covers and most Nintendo of Europe stuff is far more interested in last weeks GBA SP price drop and Pokemon release.

Poor Pikmin 2, I hope it won't effect the sales too much.

I'll hopefully finish training up my brother on the game, he's not quite good enough yet.. can't master the entire c-stick movement concept.

I went into a cave the other day with 100 Pikmin, I came out with 1. 1 single purple Pikmin removed a quater of health off of the boss.

I was mighty impressed with it. So I gave it honours and allowed it to spend the rest of his days without fighting and to return to his family. He refused as he wants to fight on for Olimar. What a genius. If he is to die before the game ends he shall be given honoury 2 minute silence.

Must say I do love the game, I wonder how much Skippy, Duracell, Dr. Pepper etc.. paid for their product placements.

I go to Cambridge and I study English literature.

Played multiplayer last night, god it really is awesome. Why did no one tell me it was such good fun? I was expecting it to be crappy, to be honest, but it's great.

Can't wait to unlock co-op.

I liked the "Wafer of Chance" or something to that effect.

Valley of Repose annoyed me so I completed whatever the second one was called first.

Genius.

About 15 days in now, and this game is true greatness. Really.

I've unlocked all the different colours, and I'm going back to the Valley of Repose to unlock everything, before completing each course fully in order. Yey.
