> I've never liked ninteno either.
It's Nitnedo you fool!1
But, also in that issue, I notice a very interesting, yet very small, section on Mario Tennis GC... And, with the Japanese release due for release sometime this month, a time-consuming Paper Mario 2 only weeks away, this one could become my new first-choice....
Why are descisions never easy to make? :P

WH Smith are on the financial downfall, and it seems that "inside sources" are, literally, grabbing all they can get...
My mate from college is taking anything and EVERYTHING he can get his hands on - all with a five-finger discount. Over the weekend, he grabbed himself a DVD player, 7" screen, X-Box and a new PS.2 - all for this flamin' car he cannot drive yet!!
He came in last week with GBA games-a-plenty in his bag. No boxes or instructions, but the carts were going DIRT-cheap...
Which, as you may have already guessed, has got me thinking...
I might have to take "advantage" or his generousity [thieving] to nab myself some top-dollar gaming glories for a mere fraction of the over-priced...! ;D
They have small discs so they dont get cracked that easily.
I bought a membership last night, so I'm wiating for the details to be updated before I claim my GAD.
I know what you mean about sentence which set up the rest of a review.
I read a review in the paper the other the day that had something about firing up a film and wearing boiler suits, but I can no longer remember it.
I don't have a clue what to claim for GAD though.
I want Paper Mario 2, but I can't be othered waiting an extra week or so, so I might get Pikmin 2. Or Donkey Konga.
I'm either thinking od Baten Kaitos or Tales of Symphonia - which do you people think I shoul go for?
I don't want something now, I already have Paper Mario 2 on the way and I'm not interested in Metroid or Pikmin 2 because I haven't got around to finishing their originals yet.
It's funny; I had this strange feeling when I posted the "review". I was happy. Smiling. I was more than just 'satisfied' with this review (compared with the hundred-and-whatever others I've churned out).
It was like when I won my very first Review GAD for The Sims: Hot Date. I remember putting the first line: "Smell that? Love is in the air - and it's coming from your PC!" - and it set me up for everything else that followed.
I was dead chuffed with that short-sentance to start my writing. "Smartest sentance I'll ever write!", I thought to myself. ;)
I was laughing with great satisfaction. Smiling throughout the rest of the typing process; chukling alon the way. :)
Have you ever felt like that?
Isn't it funny how something so 'un-real' (like the internet) can make you feel better than you have in weeks - perhaps that's why we come back here; to escape...?

I also bought myself a Makita jigsaw from Screwfix. I should have some fun later, tearing through a moldy-old 3"x3" post later on this rainy-day! ;D
