naah, you just leave it in till the yoke gets pulled down and then yank the controller up. thats it.

I'm so hooked on zelda at the moment. this whole working from home thing is proving more difficult than I thought.

I've like 37 hours racked up on zelda so far

Have you got to the more "advanced" fishing stage yet? Far more enjoyable and zen-like.

i downloaded a load of stuff but the only thing i've played regularly is Mario Kart. this review mentions some problems with it but if you don't have an n64 then i'd say go for it. it;s only 8euro i think.

AFAIK it's slightly cheaper to get the Wii Points online, rather than buy 'em in a shop.

Me too. They've been talking about making the stars convertible to points (no doubt at some abysmal exchange rate) since the launch of the Wii, though. I wish they'd just get on with it.

How does the online play work with Mario Strikers? Does it run quickly or is there a lag time. I'm gooing to buy it at the weekend I think as it seems to have good reviews so I'll challenge you to a game next week if you like

me and the boy got our asses kicked playing mario soccer online last night..beaten like 12-1 in our first game..

downloaded sim city for the snes this morning..i had forgotten how bloody addictive that game was..

Simcity or 2000?

Simcity 1 - "YOU CAN'T REDUCE FUNDING TO TRANSPORT". Also, there's most likely too much traffic in your city

Simcity 2000 - Does it still a) reticulate splines? b) have major technical
problems with the underground pipe system?

wow, and i used to think i got my ass kicked at pro evo

this game is so hard. amazing fun though, especially when you get toad to somersault the ball into goal. deadly

 

[ilovehoovering]

i need a few more hours practice! i'm positive the gamecube version was a hell of a lot easier.
