It is the 25th December 2004 - Christmas is here! Merry Christmas to you all, and I hope you all got some good swag (sorry, presents) too. I've had a good day so far. Lunch was delicious as always, and I have a heap of presents the size of a medium-sized box. Well... videogames don't take up much space, do they  Also got some DVDs, a couple of books, and a nice soft jumper that I'm wearing right now. It's frickin' freezing here! |

Surprizingly, this year I recieved 0 games, I think my parents are trying to discourage me from playing them as much! Don't worry though, I shall definately be using my Xmas money to its full extent!
Got lots of books, 2 DVDs, and a large amount of chocolate ;D

I got tons of games for NES, Genesis, and SNES (every SNES one except Ys III was a space shooter  ), a Saturn game, a Genesis 32X game, a Playstation controller (sexiest PSX controller I've ever seen), 200 dollars, clothes  , Evanescence - Anywhere But Home (DVD), a SNES Action Replay (which enables my SNES to play imports.... so now I need Mario & Wario, damnit), An Atari 2600 with 26 games and seven controllers (all for free, heh), etc |

Well, between Pokemon FireRed (GBA), Mario vs. Donkey Kong (GBA), Pikmin 2 (GC), Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour (GC) and NES Classics: Pac Man (GBA) I've got a little TOO much to play... And I still have to finish Paper Mario: TTYD, Metroid Prime 2 and Fire Emblem. Not to mention ALL THE REST OF MY FRIGGIN' COLLECTION! What I wouldn't do to be locked away for a few months with my collection, a TV, and a steady supply of pies, chips and coffee. Oh, and a PC with an internet connection, of course. Can't forget about you guys  |

Yay, I feel special.
If I was determined on beating every game in my collection, then you'd see me in about ten years.

If I just worried about my Gamecube games, here is the current state of things: - Luigi's Mansion Main game completed. Hidden Mansion still not done (and it's the cool PAL version, dontcha know!)
- Wave Race: Blue Storm I suck at this. Still struggling through intermediate difficulty.
- Super Smash Bros. Melee Completely complete.
- NBA Courtside 2002 Hardly played it.
- Pikmin On the last level. Watched loads of other people complete it though.
- Doshin the Giant Completed main game, but possibly another level needs unlocking, and I haven't attempted any of the bonus levels.
- Super Mario Sunshine Completed, but I still have to get all the Blue Coins.
- Eternal Darkness Not sure... Around halfway through it. Watched a friend complete it though. Curse him!
- Starfox Adventures Completed it. Still need all the cheat tokens, but I'm not playing through the whole thing again just to do it.
- Mario Party 4 Can't be arsed. Crap game.
- Metroid Prime Past halfway, but again I watched a friend complete it.
- LoZ: The Wind Waker Completed. Not finished the figurine collection though.
- Wario World Completed.
- F-Zero GX I suck so much at this it's funny.
- Mario Kart: Double Dash Everything unlocked. Hooray!
- 1080 Avalanche Stopped playing it once I'd seen all the cameos. Should play it again.
- Mario Party 5 Better than 4, but I haven't completed single-player or anything.
- Kirby Air Ride Quite a few challenges completed, but far from unlocking everything.
- Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles You're having a laugh, right? Still on the first boss.
- Pokémon Colosseum Near the end. Hmm... should pick this one up again.
- Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour Give me a chance! I only got it yesterday!
- Warioware, inc. All stuff open. Easy.
- Pikmin 2 Again a new game, but around 30% of the debt is paid already. I'm loving it.
- Donkey Konga Nearly completed easy mode. Bah!
- Paper Mario: TTYD On the last boss!
- Metroid Prime 2: Echoes On the penisworm boss. Or something...
Then there's the Zelda bonus disks and Pokemon Box... but they don't really count. But that's... what... about a 30% completion rate? Super Mario Sunshine is a shameful thing on my part. I should've had it licked years ago. |

Christmas was pretty good this year. Not the best but not the worst either. Supprisingly, I only got one game, which was the awesome MP 2: Echoes. Oh and don't worry, Fryguy, my GCN collection isn't in the best shape either. I still need to complete alot of mine.  I'll pick them back up sometime and finish them someday. Probably after completing Echoes... which might take a while. I've only just beaten the Boost Guardian (which took about 20 attempts and is probably one of the hardest bosses I've ever played) and acquired the Seeker Launcher. Unlocked the first Gallery aswell, which has some beautiful art. Even has a shot of a MP2: Echoes NTSC cover which I've never seen before. Better than the one they actually used, in my opinion. |

I've been playing Pikmin 2 a lot. There are enemies with bomb rocks in one of the caves on the first level. They killed ALL of my Pikmin. Good thing it saves before each floor. They're the most annoying enemies ever.
I've only played Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour sporadically as well. I have to be careful though... that's exactly what I did with the N64 one, and I've hardly done ANYTHING in that!

I'm completely stuck on Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. Can't get through the desert course. I can't wait for Mario Power Tennis, personally. I still play the N64 one every now and then. I've been thinking about getting Pikmin 2, but every time I pick it up at Game I remember my experiences with the original and change my mind... I want it, but at the same time I'm not sure I want it. It's the same with Harvest Moon.  |
