Well one way might be to say something that I'm about to say...

I'm thinking of picking up a GC as soon as tomorrow.
A couple that haven't stopped breathing might now be thinking "why the change of heart ?"

The most obvious reason is that I have flu right now so chances are its the words of a sick bloke ranting.

The other is that I've been laying in bed thinking back to games I played such as Metroid and Zelda and how there are times I'd like to play them again (but of course in they're new forms). Afterall, at the end of the day I am a gamer, not a fanboy and I've grown up with Nintendo games.

I might also look into a Gameboy Advance SP towards the end of the month with some of the classic Snes games that are out or coming out.

If I get a GC, this is what I'm thinking of grabbing...
Black GC
Extra controller (black of course)
Resident Evil
Resident Evil Zero
Mario Sunshine
Advanced scart lead (for best pic and sound quality)

Then of course I'll pick up Metroid Prime and Zelda as they come out. Don't need a memory card as I have the one from when I had the GC before. Anyway, thats the current thing going through my head.
Blame my credit card taunting me while I'm ill for this happening.
Right, well I'm off to ponder more on this and decide on how I'm going to pay for it all if I decide to go shopping tomorrow.

Well, i'm also gonna be buying Skies of Arcadia on the 3rd of May as well as Zelda, but Zelda is my birthday treat after doing my GCSEs since my B-day is the day after I finish them for good.

Star Wars? Why?

You should've got Rogue Leader - T'is a great game, but very hard.

I regret letting it go due o my inability to fly...

And yet another impulse buy. I decided to pick up Star Wars: Bounty Hunter tonight. So I now have 6 GC games within the first week of owning the console. ;-)) I'll have 7 on Friday - but I don't know what other games I'll be getting before Zelda. Probably none really cause April will be spent paying for all the March releases on GC and X-Box that I've grabbed. ;-))

Anyway, back to Resident Evil for awhile...

Not 'true' sequels, just games linked by genre and series.

Apparently.

Final Fantasy 7 was great! Maybe in some places it was overly emotional and talked too much sometimes, but on the whole it was a rather class affair- I'm still hoping for a sequel on GC or an improved graphics, longer(more stuff, and the supposed missed-out due to time restraints stuff) version.
