Yeah, I'd do the cowboy thing for $100.

I saw an ad for the Game Boy SP at a bustop. It has a cockroach playing the SP, with the backlight on too. Pretty sweet!

And Metroid. Another silent Nintendo release coming up. But it's not out for a couple of weeks yet, I think.

i saw a GBA SP advertisement on a bus stop i was walking past today. is was kinda funny: a bug playing metroid fusion on GBA SP in the dark, battling the queen bug (or whatever it is).

and i haven't seen a metroid ad. it is a gold mine

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #178 on:** March 24, 2003, 12:01:27 AM »

And where is this elusive GBA SP ad? I travel on the bus all the time (until I get my Ps on Thursday), and I haven't seen one. Only ads for Insurance Agencies, The Yellow Pages, Perfume, Yellowglen Wine and Johnny English (which I'm looking forward to).

hey dude, i live in melbourne, not sydney. if you really want to see it, drive over to Victoria (when u get your Ps), and i'll give you the address where i saw it!

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #180 on:** March 24, 2003, 12:39:48 AM »

damn you.
well, that's just ONE perk of living in melbourne. maybe.

can't wait for the pokemon event in sydney this weekend. we might be able to play zelda!

Oh wait, you're from melbourne! Hahaha! Sorry!

No offence.....

it takes a lot to offence to me! that was nothing, i'm afraid.

melbourne is a beautiful city to live. it has been voted as the best city to live several times. no joking.

BTW, no surprise that Sonic DX will have all the GameGear games. seems like SonicTeam are determined to have every Sonic game made on the planet on GC (which makes Infernal Monkey happy i guess). heck, Sonic Chaos and my GameGear still works after all these years...and maybe i should really get around to completing this game once and for all...

Damn. Pokemon IS starting on Friday.
I was so worked up.
I would have had something to watch in the mornings.
But at least there will be blitz of advertising from Matt and Jade about the Pokemon event, and other Nintendo related things. Hopefully.

And I think that it's good that Sonic Team are trying to release every Sonic game on Gamecube. They might be preparing us for a new Sonic speed fest! Time for E3 to be named again as the likely place of unveiling!

Uncle Rich AiAi · « **Reply #183 on:** March 24, 2003, 01:04:32 AM »

i would like to see the new anime Sonic X (www.sonicteam.com)

and what's with the kid with the Washington Redskins helmet? traitor!

sega said they want the Sonic franchise to be as big as Pokemon. hmmmmmmmmm....we'll see about that...

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #184 on:** March 24, 2003, 01:32:24 AM »

Well, Sonic IS 'cool' enough.

But I'd also like to see Sonic-X.

=O, how dare you, not completing Sonic Chaos! Oh, the sheer joy of that game, jumping on the strange pogo-stick thingies, and the bonus stages with their large rings and flying rocket boots, oh and the music, stunning for it's soundchip! Ohhh, ahhhhh! I diddly I, diddly I! Where me pot O' gold be?

*Continues ranting about Sonic and pots of gold for hours*

Heh, Melbourne is mad. I went there last Easter to visit my Cousin. THEY HAND OUT FREE BREAD TO ALL THE STREET BUMS! I was amazed! And you can get everywhere by tram! It rocks! Who needs a damn car now? Eh? EH?

*Sticks head over fence*
EH? Who needs one now little BeyBlade playing freaks! (My next door neighbours kids play BeyBlade at insane hours in the morning... 2 AM... 'LET IT RIP!')

I hope Sonic X turns out decent, the movie that came out about 2 years back was so... Horrible. They gave Knuckles a HAT. ;_;
But this series seems to have taken a more serious turn, and it seems this one is based in reality, not Planet Mobius, which means they've included a strange lookin' kid as a main character. He better not ruin it like the kid in Transformers did...

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #186 on:** March 24, 2003, 02:14:28 PM »

Not that I'd know.

PIAC · « **Reply #187 on:** March 24, 2003, 02:15:42 PM »

hahah i hate those humans in transformers they were just stupid, the dinobots should have eaten them

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #188 on:** March 24, 2003, 02:34:11 PM »

I feel so used. My loyalty to Nintendo has made me angry. Why would they do that? Spoil it all? And the game isnb't due out here for another two, possilbly three months!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #189 on:** March 24, 2003, 03:23:32 PM »

What's this about the latest newsletter? Does it tell you the ending or something? OR MAYBE IT EXPLAINED WHAT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN LINK AND ZELDA IS?! (Go play Link to the past on the SNES, Link's Dad implies that Zelda is related, yet they cut it all out from the GBA port)

Lucky I didn't read it!

... OR MAYBE, it explained why Link looks like such a girl in the OoT action figures! =O

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #190 on:** March 24, 2003, 05:45:58 PM »

You shut up.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #191 on:** March 24, 2003, 06:29:18 PM »

.... But I can't!

*Explodes*

Anybody else seen the Pokemon Ruby/Saphire advert on TV yet? That advert officially gives me the creeps. So many scary people with animal fetishes! They all have over-happy (it's a new word okay?) looks on their faces whist holding them. Yikes!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I made a new drink today, I call it 'the crap-shake'
Here's what you'll need;

- Chocolate Milk
- Milo/Chocolate Nesquick
- Suger
- Some chocolate ice cream topping
- A banana

Chuck it all in a big glass. Make sure you have a HEAP of milo/nesquick and suger. Many table spoons.

I CAN SEE THE MUSIC.

EDIT:
Wow, it's amazing what stunning news you can dig up via the Internet. Stunning, to the max! *Thumbs up*

Woman's attempt to unblock toilet failed when hand got stuck

A young German woman trying to unblock her toilet by hand had to call out emergency services when her arm got stuck in the u-bend.

The toilet became blocked after the 24-year-old, from Nuremberg, had poured the remains of her dinner into it.

She told firemen who came to her rescue that all previous attempts to unblock it with a plunger and cleaning agents had failed and she had no other choice but to use her hand to remove the food.

But when she forced her arm too far down the toilet it got stuck.

Luckily for the woman her mobile telephone was lying nearby and she was able to call for help

Ah ha ha, when you're bored, anything's funny!

I've seen the Ruby/Sapphire ad, as well as the bus ads for the GBA SP, which is right down the road from me!
those pokemon ads are unreal. people with super-happy faces whilst holding the pokemon by two fingers like they were bits of poo. And Pikachu looks like it's being hugged to death.

But if that get's sales up, then so be it.

Shift Key · « **Reply #193 on:** March 24, 2003, 10:25:35 PM »

Monkey, the drink you invented sounds like a killer sugar fix. I'll have to try it sometime.
Hmm, I'll have to start looking around for interesting mixed drinks with alcohol. And not those lolly drinks. Those are pathetic. Give me something which you can do yourself, and deliberately give yourself something too strong.

Any recommended ones, just e-mail it to me at zhifty_shifty@yahoo.com.au. Cheers.

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #194 on:** March 24, 2003, 11:27:41 PM »

wow.
from innocent nintendo issues to mixing alcoholic drinks.
what else can we come up with?

Infernal: that drink sounds mighty tasty. But don't call it the crap-shake. Call it the 'mighty-high-on-sugar-shake'.
would normal milk work, or does it have to be chocolate milk? and why don't you add the milo AND nesquick? And while you're at it, put in strawberry and chocolate nesquick. And you're missing one ingreadient. Ice-cream. A shake is nothing with out ice-cream.

=O, you my friend, have turned this drink into a full-blown masterpiece!
And I spose you could use normal everyday milk, but I just happened to have a 2 L bottle of 'Breaka' chocolate milk in my fridge =)

Just don't have peanut butter toast after this drink. It's not a very good idea at all....

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #196 on:** March 25, 2003, 11:27:05 AM »

Stop it bro, you're making me froth at the mouth. I'm at Uni now, and I have like, 50 bucks to spend, and if you bloody say anything more about choclate milk and high levels of sugar coated caffiene goodness, i', just gonna have to force myself to buy 50 bucks worth of Oak Classic.

Guess who played METROID PRIME today!!!!!!1111111111111111111111111111oneoneoneoneoneonefivetimesoneismorethanzero Yep, ME! OMG OMG OMG The new demo disk is out in stores!

Its got Metroid Prime and Wind Waker OMFG, i only got to play Prime though coz there was heaps of people wanting a go and stuff. OMFG Metroid Prime is already the BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED, the controls were really wierd at first, but that's a good thing, they are really innovative. I got to try the morph ball, its awesome. The graphics are f'ing AMAZING, everything has so much detail, and i LOVE the visor. OMG I cant wait until next thursday, Metroid Prime and Pokemon Sapphire will be MINE, MWAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHHAHHA! I saw someone playing Wind Waker too, just briefly though, i didnt want to spoil anything, but from the short ten seconds of it i saw, i can already say it the best looking game i have EVER seen!!!!!

Unbelievable

By the way, raise your hand if your going to the Pokemon nintendo gameboy thingy on Saturday. *raises hand* W00T, LIFE IS GREAT!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #198 on:** March 25, 2003, 11:13:17 PM »

=O =O

METROID PRIME DEMO DISC? WITH WIND WAKER!?

*Nothing is left but dust representing body*

Damn these shops, closed at 9:04 PM, i'll show them! Show them good!
ARG, and I won't be able to play it tomorrow, gotta work! BLARG URG! HULK SMASH!!!

By the way, anybody got actual details about the Pokemon event? I never got the newsletter, never got Thursdays paper, and for some reason I can't even access Nintendo.com.au to see. Comes up with a rather odd error saying I need to upgrade my IE to 3.0

... Yes... 3.0
I have... 6.1. Makes sense!

AND OMG, PSO IS OUT IN AUSTRALIA! IT HAS BEEN FOR OVER A WEEK!

Click me good!

Odd how I've never seen it in a store, but it must be pretty popular, they already sold out at toyshop.com =)

PIAC · « **Reply #199 on:** March 26, 2003, 06:01:14 PM »

calling it PSO is incorrect, should be well.... PSO... but like... PSOff as a big sticker was on it "not online compatible" \=
kind a kick in the pants eh, ohwell, can still hook up some Gamecubes and go at it that way if need be (or good ole fashion (or future technology for sony

) 4 player works too)

i get my SP tomorrow

yay i can finally play gameboy in bed without having a light on ^_^ oh the joy the joy of it all
