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.

Metroid Prime scored 10 in NOM and they said 'this is what you buy a gamecube for, baby!'. How right they are ( although it's not even been released yet here. D'OH!!

Well I completed Zero, unlike Resident Evil it has a spectacular ending; it actually felt worth it, rather than the 20 second clip you get at the end of the original.

I want to play the remake again now, but I have to finish these other games first..

Well I don't know about Ace Golf, but I know Outlaw Golf doesn't have crazy golf courses cause I have it on X-Box. Only crazy thing about that game are the characters and the fact that you can beat up your caddy.
