Sega Soccer Slam GET!

Its awesome! I didnt like it much at first, and found it really wierd, the controls are weird, but it grew on me, and its awesome! Especially for $29!

Oh yeah, and a few interesting things i found out. Nintendo Australia plan to fully RELAUNCH the gamecube here. Yep, thats right. The 10 million dollars they are using to advertise in the next few months doesnt sound like that much does it? Well, Microsoft and Sony combined didnt spend NEARLY 10 million dollars advertising thier consoles when they LAUNCHED! Just to put this into perspective, Nintendo will be EVERYWHERE. Expect Nintendo ads every day on tv, Nintendo in the cinema, Nintendo in magazines, a much stronger presence of Nintendo in stores, lots of positive coverage from all media etc. This is all happening because early this year, or about 6 months ago, Nintendo Japan representatives came down to Australia to do a survey and see how GC is performing down here, and when they found out how the cube was really doing, they were disgusted. So they had two options, discontinue the cube here, or spend millions relaunching the cube and getting its sales up. Now i know you might be thinking, yeah whatever, they said they were going to advertise Metroid Prime everywhere, but they didnt. But this is 10 million dollars we're talking about here. The massive advertising campaign will start in September. Hopefully Nintendo Australa will hold another event at Darling Harbour for Mario Kart or something. And hopefully Nintendo Australia spend thier money WISELY.
I see good times ahead for the Cube.

I cant wait until Animal Crossing, F-Zero GX and Mario Kart and everything else that i cant be bothered typing!
