I will keep you updated on that! The list of topics we have now is pretty much set until April. But when the time comes I'll make sure to have that as one of the topics and will alert you

Ooh, I'm curious how you liked W&W. It was a staple game of my childhood but certainly not the best.

So. After all that time (I'm assuming you're clocking in somewhere in 200 hours or more), is it worth it? This is my last game for the N64 as well and just wanted to make sure before I dive into this epic long (and slow) "quest" to finish the game.

Nice. Have fun with it. I'm actually considering picking up a copy from the hobby shop near my university after Christmas break...if their copy isn't sold already once I get back

It's definitely a fun game but I'm having a bit of trouble with the controls. The double jump timing is much stricter than I'm accustomed to. I keep trying to delay the second jump like I do in other games. Playing SGnG at the same time probably doesn't help that.

Yesssss, pretty amazing, huh?

At least you got to play Mega Man 9. Doesn't that make it all worth it?

It's alright. The difficulty, when set on hard, is not very challenging at all (I only lost one level to a continue screen, and that was while attempting to multitask) and the game itself isn't all that long. Seeing as it uses the two DS screens, it has a HUGE gap between the two screens where the ball is lost for a second or so. It's usually easy to assume where it's heading to, but when it bounces back and forth against the walls really fast, and it goes through that area, it's easy to lose it. But in general it only poses a minor problem.

There are several Arkanoid clones out there, and you're bound to have played one at one stage or another (including 'Brick' included in all iPod classics). I found my copy in a bargain bin for $19 AUD ($17 USD), so I'd suggest only purchasing it if it's at a good price and you haven't played at all that much Arkanoid. It does little different to every other out there.

WARNING: THE STORY SUCKS, AND MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER. Just a thought.

Judging by the length of time Ogre Battle 64's been lingering in your NP, it's a lengthy game.
