I went to Cambridge for the weekend to see a mate. When I was there I went into one of those little independant games stores places.
They had a SNES for sale. I asked how much it was, £20, not bad I thought. Quite tempting. The conversation between me and the shop bloke then went like this:
Me: Have you got MarioKart?
Bloke: No.
Me: Oh. What about Bomberman?
Bloke: No.
Me: Oh.
Bloke: Do you want to join the waiting list?
Me: Excuse me?
Bloke: The waiting list? Those two games are so popular we hadn't to start a waiting list scheme.
Me: No, it's alright thanks.
I thought he was winding me up. A waiting list for two games that are, what, about 8 years old?
Ridiculous!

If any of you want old SNES games the best places to look are:
1 - Auctions > E-Bay, Yahoo UK, Freeserve
2 - Car-Boot Sales
3 - Markets > Normal people don't understand the value of old games.
Just a ti... or three.

I was thinking of buying Sectret of Mana, but I just knicked it off a mate instead.
It takes a while to get into... music's good. Mario Kart isn't bad.
