I'm done with it. I can't push myself to play it anymore.

Same. I found it entertaining to play for a little bit, but it just got old for me after a while. And one of those expert stages, I think it was level 4 on either Monkey Ball 1 or 2 (don't remember which one) was fucking impossible. It was like a hardcore balancing act through the second half of the stage, and you had to get a good running start to go uphill on this real small balance beam at the end of the stage. I'm tired of hearing Gon-Gon fall off over and over again. :lol:

Ha no. Next month should be fun. I'll be playing GAW on an emulator (I know) but with my official Sega Saturn USB pad (yay!). 8)

As long as the article didn't contribute to the disappointment!
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I too can't wait for next month. I think I managed to track down a GAW cart. I might have overspent on it, but it should be NTSC, and it's being shipped by an American seller, so I should have it in time. Unfortunately, I'll only be at home just a little bit to be able to play it. :(
