I'm going to try and get some more Nintendo in my life in 2011 I think. There are a ton of Gamecube and Nindendo DS games I haven't played and I'm determined to get a Wii ASAP. I feel sort of jaded lately with a lot of PS3/360 titles and maybe I need something different. I have not played a ton of Nintendo first party games that have come out over the past couple of years and I've yet to try the whole motion thing with the Wii. So something different for the new year

Like a lot of people, I want to buy less, play more. Especially my steam backlog. Cause goddamn.

EDIT- but also, 3DS is coming out. so that may consume me soon too.

1.Buy less retro stuff, only picking up stuff I really want at retro gaming events like the Midwest Gaming Classic.
2.Play what I bought last year, which was a ton of stuff.
3.Do a complete inventory of all my games both physical and digital.

I'll be buying less and playing more. Saving up to buy a car.

I'll probably echo the "buy less/play more" in here. Once I hit 200 games (i'm really close) I think I'll slow WAY down for a while...

I already wrote this post but for some reason it didn't appear, oh well.

1) Connect my Megadrive and my PS2 to my PC screns.

I never game on my consoles because they are in my dinning room and my parents are usually there. I also don't feel confortable gaming with my family around, it's not inmersive. Unfortunatedly while it must exist I don't know of any adapter that works for the Megadrive.

2) Think of something to play the NES on my room, taking multiplayer into account.

3) Buy a Dremcast. I even have a Dreamcast keyboard but no Dreamcast!

4) Get some games running on triplehead because I'm not using it enough for gaming. I'm going to try No one lives forever 2 and Descent.

5) Get a steady flow of reviews and analisis for my blog(s).

6) Finish thee paperwork for our gaming organization at last, we are like a year late.
