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.

On pokemon silver I just finished the business that needed to be taken care of in the burnt tower, and right after I left the city I bumped into not one but two of the legendary dogs one after another! I was very carful and I managed to captured both of them first time round, now all I have to capture is Raikou, which I haven't bumped into yet so I can't track it.

I like it when i recieve a lightning bolt as a weapon, it stuns the person who is in first place (or in case your in first place the person right behind you).

Racing games are crap.

Mario Kart is an exception to that rule, however.

How I love to hit people with a well placed green shell - the ultimate war tool.

GT gets really boring, after about 10 mins. The only fun racing game is F Zero and mario kart. Oh, and possibly Project gotham.

Well I recently bought the old and still classic Mario Cart 64, I felt right at home with all the weapons as it was ovbious wht all of the buttons were and what they did even though I had never played the game before.
With all racing games the A button is acceleration and B is brake. Z could either be the weapon button or the tilt function as it was on F-Zero X.

Still Mario Kart is one hell of a game, I've played countless hours of it on the GBA.

Amazing game.
