Yeah, I likes me some wires on my controllers anyway. It just feels right.Flake wrote:But sometimes not having to keep AA's handy is nice.

Also, Wavebrds are like $17 now at any GameStop and surprisingly easy to come across now that most of the Smash Bros fever has pretty much all died.

yeah but still, "rumble" to me isn't really much of a feature. I just don't really get why anyone would miss it. Until he mentioned it, I forgot that most GCN games have it to be honest. Haha.Flake wrote:But...Drill Dozer!noiseredux wrote:meh, I'm really not concerned with rumble.

One does grow into it. I remember at age 21 saying I'd never drink an adult beverage. Fast forward 6 years. It's 12:26 pm and I've been shitty for a couple hours now. There are, of course, extenuating reasons.Mod_Man_Extreme wrote:(18 so getting beer is a nono, either way alcohol tastes horrible and I hate it)
Oh, and to anyone reading this thread: Just buy a GC already. You WILL be happy you did later. It's bound to be the Saturn of its generation.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
