whoa. serious?
haha.
that's like an "oh sh*t" moment.

[Shift Key]

Man, I missed it again. D'oh!

It wasn't on again. Curse you Seven! Some Providence show instead. Bah.

And I'll add you guys as soon as MSN decides to stop playing up!

HULK SMASH!

[Termin8Anakin]

Nintendo Gamer out now.
Same old same old.
Splinter Cell gets 81%, Enter the Matrix gets 91%. Cool E3 speical.
And they have Rebel Strike, Splinter Cell, Viewtiful Joe and F-Zero GC poster!

[Infernal Monkey]

Wha? Are they seperate posters or all mushed onto two sides or something?
Man, I wish the place I worked at got Nintendo Gamer mags. We get THOUSANDS of PlayStation World mags and Ralph, but no Nintendo mags.... Poo. (They recycle mags, trucks come in each day with unsold magazines in nearly mint conditition )

I'm too cheap to go out and buy it at the moment. Blew what was meant to be saved up money towards a GBP on a Tom Green Show DVD and some new headphones. Oh well, whatever.

Speaking of GBP, Kmart had (i think) an unofficial setup of the GC and GBP! Got to play Golden Sun 2
You can have some funky ass borders!

Man, I was gone for two days, and this thread increased two pages! I'm impressed!

*puts down controller*

I finished Ocarina of Time.  An amazing game.  It must have took me 50 hours to finish it.  I took my time.  (Yay, that means you can play The Wind Waker now.)  No, I need a break from playing Zelda.  (Cool, Skies is next I bet.)  I want to play a RPG now.  Not Skies, but Grandia.  (Fool!  Who cares about Grandia?)  I do, fool!

[Mario]

EVERYONE GO HERE NOW!

Holy crap.  If he wins the top prize, steal it from him!  There's no way I can get 1000000 points.

My name is AF if you're wondering.

[Infernal Monkey]

Bah, Nintendo hate my computer. Haven't been able to access their site in months. Stupid thing.

[Termin8Anakin]

[Mario]

According to the Kmart catalogue that i just got, it doesnt say anything anywhere about the Mario Party 4 + GC controller pack is only with the purchase of a Gamecube. It just says $29. Also it has the GC + GB Player bundle pack for $287.

[Termin8Anakin]

Mario, I couldn't even get near the GBA section, it was packed. They did have a few titles scattered across the PC CDROM table for some reason, I saw Wario Land 4 with a big 25% off sticker, and Iridion 3D II with a 10% off.

As for SA2, I didn't see it new, but all the second hand copies were going for $50, and every second hand game is 25%, making it? Erm... *explodes*

[Termin8Anakin]

hehe. stupid cousins.

[Mario]

Heh. Maybe ill get Wario World tomorow? Meh, im tired. zzzz get!

[Shift Key]

Yeah, the sale is Australia wide. I had a look at my local on Thursday, hoping to find a cheap GS1, or at least Burnout 2 or Skies of Arcadia, but I left empty-handed.

And I saw the ad for Donkey Kong Country (SNES port) on the GBA/SP. The old-skool is strong in this one! Mmmmmm.

[Infernal Monkey]

As in, TV advert Shifty?

Control Freaks was below average today. Well, from a Nintendo stand point.
They started off with a GREAT preview of Mario Kart Double Dash, which looked bloody great. Then, that was it for GC

They reviewed Metroid Fusion and Sonic Advance 2 on GBA, which was cool.
Then we got to see a load of PS2 online stuff, talk about the PSP, a look at the EyeToy add-on for PS2 (which I personally think is a great invention! Seriously! It'd be hilarious at gaming nights)
Then umm... A review of Indy on Xbox, some PC racing games... And more on Aussie developers.

And it looks like next weeks show will focus on Xbox/PS2 =/

[Mario]

Ugh! I missed control freaks, bah! I woke up a 1pm -_____- stupid... things.... argh! Crap its too late to go to EB now, and im too lazy, argh get! I'll just go to EB on teh way home from school tomorow... meh.
