Well, then you'll be happy to know that CBS is already looking to extend the show for a season 9! You'll never escape, Shorty.

All I heard was, "it's only good because it's a Wii exclusive". :p

It's nice that you stole this post from another forum instead of writing it yourself in the typical broken English that always gives spammers away, but you really should have changed the name of the league. We're not BroadBand Reports. B-

I think you should let your girlfriend do your clothes shopping for you, Nando. She knows what looks good on you. I usually find it hard to know what looks good when I'm shopping for clothes. I'll see something and think, "man, who'd wear this?" and later I'll see someone wearing something similar and it actually looks pretty good. I guess it's all about how you combine different garments! Or maybe they can just pull things off better than I can. :p

I thought this thread would be about some new band called Blister, and Moogle wanted to know if their music counted as pop or not. Let your body heal in peace, Moogle.

Chrono Trigger is great if you haven't played it before! Just... it's an SNES game, so adjust your story expectations accordingly. Great game, though. Ghost Trick probably won't last you all week if you play a lot. It's shorter than the Ace Attorney games. You may need a backup game if you decide to go with that. But you should still play it, obviously. :p

It's a great game with a great story and great characters and great graphics. The gameplay's fun too, but it's pretty simple and easy. It's all about the story and characters, really. Playitplayitplayit.

Ghost Trick is a good choice if you want the Ace Attorney charm but don't want to invest in an entire series. So many good games you could play! I'm more jealous about that than your holiday. Amazon's got you covered. :p And I'm pretty sure I already told you that yelling at your DS while playing Ace Attorney is entirely optional!

I used to live in a dorm, so I'd usually overdose on batter, think "I'll just eat some cookies later when I'm craving sugar again!" and by then they'd all be gone. But meh, the batter is the best part anyway. :p I totally wish I had a few of those sponge cakes here with me now.

Hooray, I'm useful! One final note: Radiant Historia was never released in Europe, but last time I checked, there were still import copies available on Amazon.

You don't have to shout at your DS to play Ace Attorney. It's entirely optional, except for (I think) right at the end of the first two games. So go ahead and play them! And then play Ghost Trick, which is by the same guy. Radiant Historia is an RPG by Atlus about time travel. The timeline splits early on, so not only do you travel back and forth through time (you just travel between the beginning and end of the game, so there's no past/future stuff), but you also have to travel between the two timelines while playing through two fairly different stories. It has a really unique battle system where the enemies stand on a 9x9 grid and you can push them around using certain attacks, build up combos and - once you get all of them on the same tile - do damage to all enemies at once. It makes battles a bit more strategic than usual, but it's easy enough that you'll get to grips with it really quickly. I thought it was really awesome! Good story, good characters, and time travel is always fun.

[/thread] Ace Attorney? If for some strange reason you haven't played those yet. Or 999, though that probably wouldn't last a week. I like the idea of playing story-heavy games at the pool, though. Radiant Historia, if you like RPGs. It should easily last you a week if you try to unlock all of the story nodes, too. Picross DS/Picross 3D? Though I think playing nothing but those games for a week would drive any normal person insane. :p Any of these should last you a week: Ōkamiden Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story The World Ends with You Either Zelda game Pokémon Advance Wars Ghost Trick Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars We don't know what you've already played, Ell!

He'd just be happy a girl was talking to him!

I'm glad you clarified that. :p And no, that's now what I meant when I said "nice-looking nerd wear". I'd never wear something like that. I don't have the curves to pull it off.

I hate when you're baking and you keep eating the batter because it's just so delicious, and then when you finally finish your cookies/cupcakes/brownies/whatever you're all sugared out and can't even stand to look at them. Such a waste.

Ah, I wish I could buy more clothes. But I have so little money and clothes are expensive. Or maybe I just have expensive tastes. I think the extent of my clothes shopping these last two years is a grand total of two t-shirts. Though my mom paid for a new pair of jeans and a dress shirt just the other week, so now I have one acceptable date outfit if anyone's interested. The next logical step is to combine your love for Nintendo and fashion and start designing nerd wear! But, like, nice-looking nerd wear. That's the challenge.

So wait... Cube was flirting with Raining's sister?

I think it kind of looks like Zac Efron, but twenty years older and after a lot of plastic surgery. Hamish doesn't seem to mind, though.

By your logic, it'd be fine if a company released a DVD case shaped like, say, the Companion Cube without the permission of Valve. :p It's just a generic suitcase to us, but they probably paid someone good money to design it!

The PC/Mac/Linux version of McPixel can be downloaded for free on the official website for the next ~24 hours, if anyone trusts Flameboy enough to want to play the full game, but not enough to want to pay money for it. Though you're welcome to pay whatever you want.

The source is apparently this GameFAQs post, where Bob from High Voltage decided to answer questions he'd received through private messages and "other channels" (read: himself, based on the last question). Toy Story Mania was released on the Wii in 2009 according to Wikipedia, so I guess High Voltage is porting it or something. 55% on GameRankings! "Good shooting gallery" indeed. I wonder if he's really excited about their projects or if he's just happy that they've somehow managed to stay in business despite only releasing mediocre trash. Edit: Victorious: Taking the Lead looks awesome, though.

I think he called her Kite. I'd be mad too.

My cold sore had just about disappeared when I started to get another one. These lips will never be kissed again.

Download it from Xbox Live like a normal person. :p

Well, at least now you know what to call her the next time you send her a message.
