Very nice. Them pictures @RedShell, wow. Sparks ftw!!!

Downloaded it last night, yet to give it a go. It played well in demo form in September, i'll venture into the hunt later though.

Popped into GAME earlier, had to correct the staff whom were convinced this was coming out in March. Turns out they were watching the US Direct.

Various sites are saying it, can't link as using my mobile

I believe the pre-orders may go live tomorrow at the latest. Already have my Majora's Mask special edition paid for via the Nintendo store.

I think the pre-orders go live tomorrow for the New 3DS's.

Just waiting to see when the new 3DS XL's go live for pre ordering.

February will be killing my wallet.

It is about time he was inducted into the Hall of Fame, well deserved. Not sure on Hogan inducting him though.

I prefer it to be on the 3DS, Ocarina played well on the 3DS if there is anything to go by.

It's not in the new contract at all, it doesn't even mention anything about taking calls or swapping departments in busy periods. It does mention being flexible with hours for weekend/evening work, but that's about it. But it was in my old contact centre contract to be flexible between departments in busy periods.

Sennheiser 429s headphones. Cable is pretty long, you can comfortably wear them with enough spare cable after the phone/music device is in your pocket. It's just over a meter long.

Replacement headphones, the wireless pair i had decided to stop working over the weekend. Very good so far.

I predict an actual release date for the New 3DS/XL models and Majora's Mask. Possibly a special edition 3DS for the games release. Hopefully some info on Monster Hunter 4 as well, that would be sweet.

Not had a problem with HDD space, still considering upgrading it. Only ever keep games on if i'm currently playing them, if they are done or i've not played them for a month i delete.

Spring drives, maybe more America tracks (maybe). Hopefully one day, they'll add the Nurbergring.

In some cases, i've used Amazon and they've used DPD. Had no issues with them as they do text/email to advise the package is in transit and if you are not in, offering a neighbour/safe place drop off. So at least you know it's been delivered safely when you get home. However, in recent weeks i've started using the Amazon Prime locker service for smaller items (aka Blu-rays, books, games etc). So at least it gets delivered to one of the lockers on my route home, so no more finding the time to pop down the sorting office or waiting in. Quite handy, Amazon tell you it's in the locker and they give you a locker code to grant access to the package.

I thought things would be different in the new job/department. In the most part, they are not. All roughly the same when it comes to passing on information. When i left the last job in September, i thought that was it. No more call centre, but alas that was not to be. Was told i'm needed to go back for 3 weeks to help in a busy period, along with many others. Tried my damn hardest to avoid going back, even going as far as advising them how bad i got on the phones. And with my old operations manager now my current operations manager in the new department, thought i'd stand a chance. Alas no, twas told to simply "put up and shut up". Can't even go on a referral that others have had to avoid going on the phones, no longer an option. In one way, my manager is nice enough to try and get me away from the contact centre. In another they ain't. Manager said do the training, any issues to let her know. The trainers want us on the phones this afternoon, and i'm simply put cacking it. Full of dread, full of stress and anxiety. I contemplated just not coming in, did that once before. So at the moment, i'm sitting in the office writing a message to my union rep for some advice (also writing on here as i need to vent). I'm not alone with not wanting to go on the phones, about 20 out of the 100 they need don't want to go back on and are also voicing their concerns. The ops manager did say any conerns, raise them and we'll accomodate. Bull.

I'm going for April/May myself.

All done @MoogleViper.

What could those two words mean "save me". That could cross over many things. Could it be about money, life or necessities. As i kept scrolling the pages through to see if there was any other clues as to what this could be, i came across another page with more words. "I need help" was scrawled across the page. Still unsure about the mystery of the book and why it had many blank pages and only 2 with words on, i put it back onto the table and contemplated what would happen next. Eyes became heavy, and before too long i fell asleep in the armchair. I was awoken by a sudden noise just outside, it was morning at last. Thinking this was the other half returning, i stepped outside to investigate the noise. Nothing was to be found, except a knocked over bin and some footprints leading to and from the cabin. Deciding to investigate, the path i chose was the footprints away from the cabin. These lead back in the direction of the village.

Count me in, could be a lot of fun.

I have to agree as well, if this new system works as i believe it to as well, unless they implement a "classic mode" which leaves the save system as is, then Nintendo are attempting to ruin a brilliant game.

Glad to hear someone else enjoying this wonderful game. It's my commuting game to and from work, certainly is a lot of fun. Some of them sun stones though can be a tad tricky.

If only they had the XL's on early release, i would have snapped one up. I'm happy enough to wait though for the XL models to hit the UK, i really cannot see myself going back to a smaller console.
