    Target sale turned out alright, i went back and picked up Pikmin 2 and Wario Ware Smooth Moves for $4 each. WW will make a good birthday present for my nephew, tho cause it was so cheap the wife's pestering me to get him Wii Music for $9 as well! I'm not sure i want to have even the slightest association with that game though

    Looks like it's your now. Its pretty good, but it just doesn't take my fancy...

    On the plus side, EB's game sale proffered this.


    Got in trouble from the missus for taking too long buying it. You know why?
    EB Guy: Want to know of any games coming up?
    Me: No.
    EB guy: Want scratch protection on that? $3 for that one and $2 for that one.
    Me: Why? Are the discs scratched already?
    EB guy: No, they are new.
    Me: As they should be. I don't want scratch protection.
    EB guy: You sure you don't want to pre-order any games? The last of us is coming out and is supposed to be the best game on the PS3.
    Me: No thanks.
    EB guy: Bla bla, something about some other game game. bla bla put down ten bucks on it?
    Me: no thanks, I don't want to pre-order any games. I jut want to buy these.
    EB guy: Ok I'll put these through. (processes games)
    Me: I want to use my card.
    Eb Guy: Ok, oh, we'll have to put that through over on this till.
    Me; Fine.
    Eb guy: something something .

    Finally get my games about three mins later...
    I had stopped listening by now.

    Nice one EB games. No matter how good your prices may be you always manage to let me leave your store thinking how much I hate going to EB games.

    That's a skill.

    I'd just wish Sega would release a EUR/US version as I'd love to get this game. Reminds me of the Dreamcast days....

    I don't think it'll happen, Sega's only focussing on their biggest selling properties these days. Just import it, you can come questing with me and the wife

    You know the PC version has an English patch too right? I haven't tried it but apparently it's complete, excepting weapon names and a few other things stored on their servers. Mind you, it's also supposed to be a bit of a pain to install and manage with all the official updates the game gets.

    Even if you can't get the patch going, a wealth of online resources made it easy for me to get into, and my wife helped me get some Vita menu translations done too (here)

    Yeah I've seen a lot of Westerners taken taken that route, just really annoyed at Sega how little they regard the US/Euro market.

    Graphics look pretty nice on PS Vita so might cave in soon...

    Finally found a game worth getting from target, Kid Icarus for 3Ds for $14. Pretty chuffed.
    Looking For: Wreckers Saga TPB Collection (with Requiem)

    Got given Portal 2. I can't even remember finishing the first one.

    As much as I love presents, it was slightly disappointing to see an EB sticker on the game. I hate the thought of them getting money.
