Megaman for GB is now on the Australian eShop, i'll buy it next week or something.
Also, i'm going to the Nintendo Connection tour tomorrow, i'll get to play some new cool games like Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D and Zelda Skyward Sword. Can't wait!

Okay, i decided to go today instead of Saturday. More people would of gone on the weekend. It was a lot of fun! First time I've been to an event like this. The setup was about 5m x 15m, so it wasn't very big, but it was right next so some over the top designer clothes shop, so it was even better that we were annoying them. XD I wish i could of seen my face when i walked in, there were so many nerds, but they were very interesting, i talked with loads of people and got my street pass up by 25. Two people were like 10 years old but they knew a lot, i talked to one about Virtual Boy and AVGN. Also the people working there were really charismatic, there was a guy on the mic yelling at people going up the escalator that they were going the wrong way. There wasn't a HUGE selection of demos: -Skyward Sword -Super Mario World 3D -Mario Kart 7 -Kid Icarus -OoT 3D (Meh, everyone has that ) They also had out to play: -Kirbys Epic Yard -DK Country Returns -Pokedex 3D -Starfox -That Dance game on Wii (Yeah i forgot the name. :/) -Xenoblade Chronicles (WTF IS DAT, IKR I WAS LIKE THAT TOO, ITS AN AWESOME RPG!!) Here are my thoughts: Skyward Sword:Well it's another Zelda game, but it takes advantage of the Wii Motion Plus, you can use different movements to kill different enemies. I had some pictures of the guy showing how to use it, but they came out kind of bad, i used my 3DS camera, i wish i bought my camera so i could of recorded it. I don't think i'll enjoy it as my as the old ones, i don't want to break a sweat while playing a Zelda game for extensive hours, but I'll still get it, because, it's a Zelda game. Super Mario World 3D:I was a bit disappointed with the first level, I've never been a fan of the 3D Mario. But when that was over i went to the second level, and was really happy, it was underground, but it had a 2D platformer look from a 3D angle, i was really happy with it. I can't remember much about the other two levels but they were good. As far as the 3D goes, from what i saw it just makes things more round. Can't wait to play some of this. MK 7:Sounds like Mortal Kombat 7... lol. Anway, i didn't have high expectations for this, going from MK Wii to MK DS it was kind of a let down, i was looking at the map more than the top screen. So i started up the demo, chose Yoshi like always, then i could chose what kart body i wanted, i just chose the basic one, then i could chose which wheels i wanted, so i just chose the medium ones, finally i could chose which glider i wanted... but none where unlocked. :c I guess these things will make more sense when i get into the game. So i started the game and i was like mind = blown. Best MK ever, i fell in the water, OH NOEZ, wait i can swim!! Then i can glide, OMG ITS CRAZY!! It has amazing graphics, really looks like the Wii, i couldn't keep my eyes off the top screen. And i swear the text that goes 3, 2, 1 comes out of the screen. I'm getting this the day it comes out, i can't wait! Kid IcarusLThis was the main reason i stayed there for 3 hours, i waited to play Kid Icarus for 2 of them, there was only one system with it on, and everyone wanted to play it. I was really impressed, but there are demos everywhere, so you can watch those yourself. The controls look a bit confusing but they aren't. (I'm not to sure how left handers play) I will defiantly get this but it can wait. Xenoblade ChroniclesThis is a JRPG, and its amazing. The guy who showed me it said it took 60 hours to finish, it looked good but it's not a game you can pick up and start playing, he told me to look it up when i get home. So i did, and i so need to get this, i won't go on for ages so just go look up the reviews. But the only problem is... it's only in PAL format, sorry everyone in the US. So i had a really fun day... well 3 hours. I got an Ocarina, nothing special, it's just hard plastic, but it works, also because i was the first 100 people to enter i got to enter the contest to win all the new games and i got this code that i put online and that goes into a contest to win a cool Zelda scroll. :3 To finish the day i went into EB and bought the OoT guide... i really need it.

ing Xenoblade. There is a huge grassroots campaign to try and get it over here in the US to no avail. I keep meaning to import it, but I just can't bite the bullet on that expense.

Demoed StarFox 64 3D today while I was in Target, and it's pretty much confirmed an eventual purchase from me. It's just so nice to look at, and plays great from the time I had with it.

Go ahead and get your free copy of Legend of Zelda: Four Swords. It's on the eShop early!
I think we're getting Metroid II for sale tomorrow, as well.

I'm guessing thats for ambassadors? No. It was s sh*t game to begin with, so everyone pretty much gets it free. You won't be able to play it with 4 other GBAs, though.

I remember one of my friends saying that he had it when he was little and nobody else had it. I've never played it before, hopefully its okay.

One of my high school friends had four swords for the Gamecube... where you could go into the GBA by entering certain caves if you had the GBA-GCN cable. Pretty sweet little gimmick. I'll download it, but I'm sure it won't live up to those nostalgic times.
Oh, and it's free for the Zelda 25th Anniversary.

We got Super Mario Land 2 on the eShop!
Awesome game, much better than SML1 in my opinion. This one takes awhile to beat. I remember when I was like 6, I would play this game in the grocery cart while my mom shopped, haha. Good times.

3DS CONFERENCE TRAILERS!?!!? 'o'
OMG Luigi's Mansion 2 looks amazing! But the one i can not wait for is Paper Mario!! I'm so happy that they went back to the turn based style, that's what set it apart from the other Mario games and the 3D looks awesome!
There are other trailers but i don't really care about those games or I've already played them ._.

Dammit. These old games...they're not as long as I thought they were...I beat SML2: 6GC in an 1 hour and 47 minutes. -_-
Oh well, $4.00 well spent IMO.
I just hope Wario Land: SML 3 hits soon. I miss the Jet Hat, the Dragon Hat, and collecting all those treasures.

I've been using it since they brought it over here a few years ago. I've gotten a bunch of cool stuff from them, including the rewards (wearable Mario hat, statue, pin set coming up) and a 3DS pouch, giant AR card, DS card holder, star bag, and a couple other things.
My friend got me both Mario Galaxy soundtracks for my birthday/Christmas. Definitely my favorite things! I wish they'd bring over some soundtracks to the US store. It'd be super cool to get old game soundtracks, like the DKC games and things like that that they probably wouldn't sell in stores, but would be very desirable for the hardcore fans.
My idea for a major item would be a Virtual Boy collection for the 3DS, only available via Club Nintendo.
