Aah of course, I suddenly thought of AllStar mode in Melee and thought I hadn't unlocked it yet :p

I know, I just think NiGHTS in vehicle form is hideous :p and I don't think I've even played All-Star mode, I should probably complete it before I start complaining about things :p

I haven't downloaded the Wii one yet but judging by these screens it looks pretty good, hopefully it's better than the awful Wii U one.

I felt the same about the characters, I was especially confused about the omission of Billy considering he's in the previous game and has his own level in this one. My only guess is they want to make some money on character DLC in future! I was also FUMING about NiGHTS. When I saw i'd unlocked him/her/it on the World Tour I was so excited but when I went to choose... I couldn't believe it was one of those fucking Chao things in a weird NiGHTS car.

I love the music in this game, when I heard the Monkey Ball mix and Sky Sanctuary mixed with Sonic R's "Back in time" I nearly fainted

Yeah, this game is amazing, reminds me of the first time I played Diddy Kong Racing. The World Tour mode is great too, and is something that Mario Kart doesn't offer (though it kind of did in Mario Kart DS and mission mode) The only thing I've felt isn't too great atm is the online. I often only get around 5 people out of the possible 10 and waiting for a lobby to fill can be a pain at times. If anyone plays this often, be sure to add my NNID!

I didn't know this until I was randomly jumping into people and l got coins! Love this game

I haven't been able to properly sink my teeth into this yet, but the games I have played have been really enjoyable. I haven't even tried METROID BLAST yet but from what I've heard I've got a lot to look forward to I love unlocking random things for the park, my favourite so far being the great deku tree. Though I think someone should introduce Monita to Logbox from Banjo Nuts and Bolts EDIT: In fact, both games are really similar in terms of style with the mix of fabric and... lots of robots.

Does it work on the usual £6 a month rental thing? Or is there a separate subscription for streaming? Too tired and lazy to check their actual site now :p

What a list, I'll be happy if the Wii U manages to churn out as many classics! EDIT: But Skyward Sword is better than Galaxy 2!?

They fixed the controls! Maybe... I haven't updated yet :P Will have another pop at it soon! This is from SEGA's Facebook: "We've released a patch for NiGHTS into dreams... on PSN and XBLA. First, we’ve adjusted the controls to allow analog input in 24 directions, which will give you greater control. Second, we’ve changed the drill-dash speed so it aligns with the Saturn version of the game. The patch is available now!"

That's great news! DKC 2 deserves to be on every system I own. As for the whole removal situation, I still hastily fire up Twitter every day to see if any news of a HD collection emerges, it never does.

Yes, they are! http://www.n-europe.com/news/white-nintendo-3ds-xl-mario-kart-7-super-mario-3d-land-trailers And the above post is a tasty deal indeed. Thanks for the heads up @welsh_gamer

New trailer on front page! I'll stop complaining now because, despite the story woes, it still seems to have plenty of that Paper Mario charm. http://www.n-europe.com/news/paper-mario-sticker-star-launch-trailer

The final chapter is still one of the greatest in any Mario title : peace:

Could you enlighten me on this? :p (Breaking Bad is amazing btw)

I usually try and get 7, anything less and I'm completely useless. Thankfully I start work at 12.30 5 days a week, so it means this doesn't effect my bad habit of getting to sleep around 3-4 am :p Waking up is SUCH a hard task every day, I set two alarms on my phone, one an hour before I wake up (which is some random piano solo) which I keep snoozing every 10 mins, then a more annoying one half an hour before I should be up, which is far more annoying as it's just a bunch of ducks quacking. The final one is this beast of an alarm which sounds pretty much like an old school fire drill, I put it at the other end of the room so I just have to get out of bed. When I think about it, it's a good job I wake up when everyone else has left the house else they'd be fuming. The one day I set my alarm as barking dogs, my lord, what a riot that caused. My real dogs in the other room were going crazy.

My brother is getting his girlfriend one of those old style Jukeboxs that plays CD's so I got the perfect present to go along side that... Also, because my brother loves (this awful) TV series: ...And I have nothing else :p SO much shopping to do

Ugh, is Miyamoto serious?! As far as I'm concerned, the story has always been the main part of the Paper Mario series. I think I'll get this from Love Film before I buy it, which is shocking as it was my most anticipated 3DS title. I just want a true sequel to Thousand Year Door

I will never wash it.

You found a random Sonic shirt still in its wrapper and you didn't wear it?!

Dug out my old ipod today and found these guys, I was happy indeed.

Work told me today I'll lose "26 hours a week", which isn't great. They rang me just before I went Christmas shopping, which is a good thing I suppose. It wouldn't be as bad if they gave me some warning, but it was literally "don't come in tomorrow". I'll have to cut back on the Taiko Drums, Sonic tshirts and... WII U.

I feel sick, this news is horrific. I need some beer now.

I'm always up and down but haven't been this uncertain for quite a while. I suffered from anxiety, panic attacks and all sorts back in school, missing 6 months at one point thanks to not being able to leave the house. It was weird and if I'm honest, I can't remember most of it, when I try to remember what happened in year 11 it's pretty much completely blank. Anyway, as time went by I started to improve and pretty much become completely fine again, I'd always get the odd day where I was on edge and stuff, but I made friends and even started hanging out socially. It was pretty crazy. Anyway yeah, since then I've been on and off. I don't think anyone really knows though, I don't really speak much about my sanity. But anyway, that brings me onto why I'm here. The last few months have been really weird. My anxiety has been through the roof, and whilst I'm not as bad as I was (I still attend social events and stuff as oppose to hiding away in my room) it certainly seems to be a downward spiral. I don't know, I get like this every now and then, I'll probably be fine in a few days, but the last few weeks have been really hard and I don't really have anyone to talk to about it, so this seemed like the best place to spurt my feelings. Some days I just don't want to get out of bed, I just feel like staying there and letting the world go by. I know it will pass, it always does, but I don't know. I suppose my anxiety always gets worse when bad stuff is happening, and this year seems to have been handing out shit on a plate.
