Ah but I didn't let the rain stop me I assume does the Star Tours have different "Tours", we did the Endor one but I noticed posters for different places on the way out so assumed there was a Tour for each one but didn't have a chance to ride it again as my own son was too small for it and only got the chance to go on it when had a free moment to go on my own for a bit Yeah the whole atmosphere of the place is awesome, I was like the biggest child in our group haha. Everyone else (my wife included) thought I was mad to want to see the Disney Dreams Fireworks show again and again after seeing it once.... but that feeling of magic is too much to resist, haha I'm jealous of you guys that have been able to go multiple times (well actually this was my second, first was 15 years ago on a school tour to Paris, we only did one day in Disney and I hardly got to go on anything cause the lines were so long when were there), hope to go back sometime, maybe give it a 2-3 years so Zoey will be able to experience/remember more. Wife wants to go Philippines next year to visit her family so next year is definately out anyway..... would love to maybe try Disney World Florida though, see how different they are

Finally got Fibre in my area (well at the moment it only Fibre to Cabinet not Fibre to House yet but no extra cost for the upgrade either so had to be done) and just upgraded today Just checked my speeds, before upgrade was getting 10Mbps download and 0.5Mbps upload Now I'm getting 50Mbps download and 17Mbps upload...WOOT I need to start make YT vids more regularly again to take advantage of that much improved upload speed Only slightly annoying thing was my own router wasn't compatible for the upgraded connection so had to take their free router, would have prefered to keep mine, just spent a good while getting used to the UI of the new router and setting things up how I wanted and then having to reset up all the devices in the house too. But all done now and ready from Nintendos E3 Direct!

Is there a particular way to upload a video from MKTV to Miiverse? Everytime I try it just uploads a screenshot? I go Upload Highligh Reel > Do You want to upload to Nintendo Network > Yes > Do you want to upload to Youtube > No Then it brings up a miivsere posting field, I type in a post and press ok.... but it's always a screenshot?

Fav attractions? damn...lets see...EVERYTHING! haha I'd go on everything multiple times if I have the extra time, did do a few things twice or 3 times...mainly the smaller things that the kids could go on. Loved Peter Pans Flight, thought that was well done, did that twice.... even did Small World 3 times haha trying to work out all the countries represented.... didn't spot the Ireland one on the first go as it right at the start and I was looking to the right and it was on the left. The Studio Tram Tour in the Studio park was cool, that was teh very first thing we went on. Pirates of the Caribean was great too... was interesting seeing things from the ride and going "oh so that's why that was in the first flim", liek teh dog with the key Shows like the Motor Stunt Show (awesome) and indoor shows like Animagique and Cinemagique were brilliant....even enjoyed the Disney Jr Live Show which was the very last thing we did before saying goodbye. Luckily I managed to get a chance to go on the bigger rides at various points....note for anyone not been and planning to go soon, best time to do the bigger more popular rides is after 8pm, lines seemed to disappear after that. Space Mountian we did on first night there was no line did it again the second night. Also went on Indiana Jones Coasterand Star Tours, enjoyed that Thunder Mountain was closed for maintence though I wanted to go on that On last day while the others were waiting for the Disney Jr Live Show I managed to slip off and finally do the Hollywood Hotel (LOVED THAT) and the Aerosmith Coaster, awesome Think the only thing I didn't go on was the Crushes Coaster, line for that always seemed to be long and didn't have a fastpass lane. Even things that were not rides were just awesome, like the Parades, saw the Stars N' Cars twice in the studio and the main Disney Magic Parade once in the main park...though wish I could have seen that again. But if I had to pick out one fav thing it would have to be the Disney Dreams Fireworks and Light show...just spectacular, not an oridinary fireworks display, having a story and showing scenes from different disney films I couldn't get enough of that Just wish it was longer and included more films haha

Is the whole thing on youtube yet? Edit found it on IGNs youtube

Just watched Season 4 eps 8 and 9 back to back HOLY FRAK to both .... Grrr can't believe next week is the final ep of teh season...why do they insist on only having 10 eps a season!

So was on holiday last week, was in Disneyland Paris (as the thread title suggests ) for 4 nights 5 days with the family....and my sisters family....and my cousins family...and my own mother too. Everyone had a great time, kids had a fantastic time as did the adults (prolly me the most of the adults, haha). On the last day my son and my nephew were trying to bargin with me "Why do we have to go home today...can't we stay just 5 more days" Truth be told I was saying the same to myself, but I have that "drag me down to Earth" reminder of lack of funds to stay longer and need to return to work....BOOOOOOO We had real good flight times too, flew out of Dublin at 6.50am, were checked into the hotel (Sequoia Lodge) by 12ish I think (French time) and then straight to the parks....stopping in McDonalds in the Disney Village first though for some lunch..... And on the last day our flight was 9.50pm so we didn't have to leave the hotel till the 5.45 bus I think it was so we still had a fair few hours on the last day for one last trip round the parks before saying a sad farewell. Weather was great with the exception of Wednesday when it rained on and off most of teh day.... but that didn't stop me. We did go out to the park as a full group at the start but as the rain kept coming everyone else decided to go back to the hotel...especially Joy and my Sister as they had the little infants. But me and my brother-in-law stayed out with our older boys (my Oisín and his Conor), rain wasn't that heavy and most lines for rides were short (and covered) for the ones we planned to do that day. What we didn't want to happen was to end up coming back to Ireland and the boys going "but we didn't go on [insert ride name]"... wanted to make sure they missed out on nothing. So some pics On the plane from Dublin to Paris, not Oisín's first time on a plane but he knows he's going to Disneyland and was super excited.... as was I Joy and Oisín by Lake Disney outside of the Hotel Pic of the whole group on the way into teh Studios park (minus the one cousin taking the photo) Massive Buzz statue... rented that buggy for Zoey on teh first day but those things were expensive (15euro a day) and not the best build for a small baby... Oisín ended up using more actually.... Lego R2-D2 ReZ would likely spend all day in this one store and forget about the parks if he was ever here.... Me and Zoey... I did a lot of baby carrying everyday.... well here it's Zoey but I did more time with Oisín on my shoulders as his little legs get tired very fast (that or he's just lazy)... if anything I didn't have to use the hotel gym anyway as the walking plus the carrying of either Zoey and/or Oisín provided a hell of a workout each day Meeting Buzz at the park The Disney Dream Fireworks & Light show was AMAZING! Went to see it 3 of the 4 nights... missed it one one night (think the Wednesday) because we booked a table at a restaurant and could only get for 9pm by the time we finished we missed the 11pm start of the show ... I also forgot my sunglasses at that restaurant (King Ludwigs Castle) Lucky I have a 2nd pair here at home Oisín driving a car at Autopia... and yes this was on the day it rained if you can't tell by the plastic poncho I had to buy cuz I didn't bring a coat....bloody thing cost 9 euro.... I think I left it at the hotel Oisín and Conor waiting for the Disney Magic Parade to start... luckily the rain stopped and the parade went ahead as this was the only time we were able to watch it (kept missing it somehow on other days)...parade was indeed Magic Lion King float in the Parade, prolly my fav (as Lion King is one of my fav Disney films till) Meeting Tigger at breakfast We had upgraded rooms (Golden Forest Rooms) in the hotel which gave us access to a different dinning area for breakfasts which would have characters visiting each morning. We also met Goofy, Minnie, Mickey (in different clothes...think it was yellow and a yellow hat), Pluto on different mornings at breakfast. Went to the city on the Thursday to visit the Eiffel Tower.... TBH, for the lenght of teh queuing for tickets and teh first elevator and then the 2nd elevator to the top floor and having to queue again to get down, not sure if it was worth it but at least we can say we done it I guess Saddened to say I couldn't pull it out.... I am not the Hero of which the legends speak And of course you can't go to Disneyland and not get an overpriced (19.99 euro for one... but if you get a 2nd it only 24.99 overall, so yeah we got a 2nd one printed too) family photo with the Mouse himself 100% loved it, never have I come back from a holiday and thought "if I could I would hope on a plane and head right back there" but I did after this one... I was with the kids, I didn't want to leave haha One thing I did find odd though was with all the shops and all teh different products sold I didn;t see any Disney DVDs/BluRays on sale? What's up with that? If I found a shelf of Disney BluRays I would have implused bought one of everything I don;t already have even the one I already have on DVD! I did of course bring my video cam and got a lot of footage...not entirely sure what to do with it yet, as in how best to edit it or whatever, I just transfered all the files to my laptop and got something like 94 files

I was in Disneyland all last week, I was a bit busy to be keeping up with the interwebs latest viral memes

I noticed a lot of Luigi memes going about lately.... did I miss something last week while away?

I just realised I'm getting upgraded to Fibre tomorrow.... should be done before 5... though just had a bad feeling it might be delayed..... *fingers crossed*

I picked it up last week in HMV Dundrum, pre-owned for 10euro...the Club Nintendo Code is still intact too I too have bvought this on Wii U launch if teh Trilogy thing didn't happen.... glad I waited now though

Was in a HMV today (Dundrum in Dublin for those few in Ireland wonderin which) and of course went to the games section, was expecting to see at least one MK8 poster or even a shelf with a line of display boxes. .. I found nothing not a single thing it was as if the game didnt exsist to them. There was barely even a WiiU section. Just a little corner of pre-owned games. In the plus side I picked up Mass Effect 3 Wii U pre-owned for just 10euro! And the Club Nintendo code in it was unused.... Methinks they were just marking excess stock as pre-owned tryin to offload some .... Prolly wont get rpund to playin it for awhile though what with MK8 and all but will get to play it at some point

I went on round 9 for an hour or so, but all the N-E'ers were in public groups most were full so couldn't join, finally managed to get into a group with Welsh_Gamer and I think Serebii was there too. Tried to send Lostmario a PM in the game to see if we could set up a private lobby and get all the N-E'ers together but then I realised the PM's were done through Miiverse...MY KINGDOM FOR POP-UP NOTIFICATIONS IN GAME! Had a few good games with the group Welsh was with but the silence annoyed me, haven't gamed with Welsh in ages, wanted to have a bit of banter, a bit of catching up and some chats...but no Nintendo had better patch things in

i prolly won't be online till after 9pm

I thought MK TV let you post vids to Miiverse aswell as Youtube? I tried to upload a vid earlier but when I checked my Miiverse it was only a screenshot?

Have set up the usual temp board for the World Cup and opening it now, bit early but I'm gonna be away for the next week and a bit and figured with the warm up friendlies coming up the weekend there might be some need for World Cup talk before I come back. http://www.n-europe.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=79 Same drill as usual, I've got threads set up for each round, only mods and admins can create new threads but if you have a topic you would like to discuss post the thread suggestion in the General/Welcome thread and a mod or admin will sort it out.

So does this mean if I use MK TV to upload an MK8 vid to my youtube I can monotinse it as normal Youtube Partner or will I have to sign up to something extra to be allow monotenise such a vid?

So what's the plan for this evening? Will we be having a group N-E karting session? What time?

Unboxing Mario Kart 8 Limited Edition

WHAT???? Why did nobody say this sooner? Only reason I was doing 50cc on me own was cause I wanted to work my up as I thought completing cups on higher levels wouldn't unlock them at the lower. Still playing 50cc for the moment cause playing 2player with me son....speaking of which is there anyway to make the split screen horizontal instead of verticle?

Had to stop playing to get lunch for the kids, while sorting that was able to quickly edit a quick unboxing vid I recorded when I got home with the game this morning @lostmario, in case you're wondering yes I did plug the League, at the end of the vid Was meant to verbally mention it but forgot in my rush to get the game on so edited in the league logo and some text at the end

What if they announce Mario Golf U and Mario Strikers U?

Still not decided which game to download, all the good ones (well ones I would want) I already have.... may just download NintendoLand and trade in my disc... my son keeps trying to play it himself when I'm at work... surprised he hasn't managed to scratch it up yet

Picked up my Limited Edition this morning Played a few games on me own, did the Mushroom Cup on 50cc to ease myself into it, picked a Bike of course Tried a few games online but me son wanted a go so went back off line and playing some slipt screen with him....somewhat annoying when he is last and all other racers finish the race it doesn't time out, it keeps going till he finishes...is there an option for that that needs be turned on? He can play and finish laps but he just slooooowww :p I'd be finish lap 2 he's half way into lap 2 haha
