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.

I'll sell it in 20 years time when it's a relic and Nintendo games collectors will pay in the region of around 1000 pounds for it. Suckers.

It does.
I want the original cartdrige, I never actually owned it, just stole it from a friend for a few months.
It's the reason I haven't sold my SNES yet.

Super Metroid rules.
If you complete Metroid Prime you can link up and unlock the Fusion suit from Metroid Fusion, and complete Metroid Fusion to unlock the original Metroid game.
And Metroid Prime isn't a FPS, so odn't expect one or you'll be dissapointed. I would seriously recommend downloading a SNES emulater and Super Metroid, so you get a decent idea of what to expect.
Sit down and play Super Metroid for five hours and you'll probably love it to bits :D Although of course, it's better on an actual SNES.

Bomberman is pretty mediocre - Just a crap RPG that has ruined the old multiplayer madness of the first one. Avoid.

I've heard of the GB Advance Metroid linking up with Metroid - anyone know what effect this is supposed to have and stuff ?
I'm gonna look at reviews on here of Bounty Hunter - anyone wanna put their views accross on this game ? I don't wanna grab a lemon game. I would consider Phantasy Star Online, but I'm already on X-Box Live, so I guess I'll wait for the X-Box version.
If Bounty Hunter is a bit mediocre then I'll probably just put the money I get back on Sonic into knocking some cash off my GB Advance SP.
At least its only a week till Metroid Prime. Hopefully April will be pretty quiet on the X-Box and GC front - gives me a chance to get most of the money on my card paid off in one go. Then once May comes around I'll have titles like Zelda to pay out for.

I will still get Bounty Hunter one day, in fact, there's still a load of games from last year I want, like Bomberman and Godzilla...
