So here's the official website detailing all the stuff that's going to be in the limited edition of The Last Story. You'll also get a big ugly USK rating. I hate these things because they ruin the boxart.
Why do we have to have them? Actually, don't answer that, I don't care. The right question is do German people really have such poor eyesight? What the fuck is their problem? Why does the rating have to be bigger than the PEGI one? Why should Irish people have to suffer this desecrating our game's boxart?
I was really pissed off when I saw the big ass USK rating on Skyward Sword's limited edition box.

Imagining a remake of Donkey Kong 64
Just thinking about it hypothetically. This game is famous for having more things to collect than players could actually cope with. Because of that I was wondering what if a remake had an extra feature like having the Banjo-Kazooie pair as an unlockable. Just think about whizzing through the levels with the Talon Trot and of course they would be able to collect and utilise every Kong's items and abilities on top of having their own. That would be cool in a bizarre kind of way.
Imagine the banter between Kazooie and Cranky! That would be fun too.
I also say keep Jetpac and Donkey Kong arcade intact.

GoNintendo says "Mario Party 9 has minimal loading times"
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=171770
There we go! I'm making a post out of this especially because noone else seems to be getting excited over the reporting of minimal loading times.
I think that's WRONG and we should be getting very excited about this! Loading times inconvenience the player and should be BANNED!
I'm very passionate about this issue so I would like to make a label called: "LOADING TIMES SUCK". Expect to see it now and again!

Things Alison Whitney could do and would be great at
Listen to me go on! Like I'm some expert or fanboy. I shouldn't really pretend to be either, just thinking here.
She would be good for some kind of family entertainment like a sitcom with a laugh track. I'm actually thinking that she would be brilliant in some kind of Jim Henson production with muppet-like creatures around. Those shows suit everybody, not just kids. If she were to do something like Sesame Street I can imagine her being like Elmo's cool auntie.
I thought a good bit about her doing Samus Aran for some kind of Metroid feature. I think Alison has an unusual quality but it's different to what I picture Samus' unusual quality being like. Considering her portfolio you'd think the most Samus-y thing she could do is promote the latest Metroid game while wearing the suit without the mask and then do one of Samus' moves with a cheesy but amusing special effect.
I imagine the closest to being Samus you could be is to study Daryl Hannah's character in Blade Runner(or maybe even Splash!). I wonder if Alison could do that?
Imagine if Studio Ghibli did a Metroid feature? That would be interesting, and they're known for making movies starring the kind of females you could make plenty of comparisons with Samus Aran.
I told you I'm not an expert! I just deviated and went talking about video games.
Ok how about this: Alison has something different about her. I can't imagine a lot of other women doing Nintendo Week as well as she did it and whatever it is that she had, it's a valuable asset.

Just found out that Alison has left Nintendo Week
Aw! I've lapsed in my viewing of the episodes so I didn't find out until now. At the end of last week's episode she was revealed to be an alien and got beamed away. It reminds me of The Simpsons where Poochie left Itchy & Scratchy for his home planet. Alison didn't die on her way back though thank goodness!
She did some great PR for Nintendo of America with her smiles, charm and glamour and seemed to have great respect and discipline for it. I admit it's nearly always very strange to see women do PR for video games. I wonder if girls who aspire to become involved in the industry feel like the old man that can be found in Alltrades Abbey in some of the Dragon Quest games who aspires to become some kind of french maid?
They needn't let that get in their way though as there are veterans like Violet Berlin and Bettina Pieri who have presented game shows in the past. They were quite good.
Anyway, her full name is Alison Whitney and she has a kind of portfolio website with a c.v. of what look like very interesting B movies and a reel of her at her very best, even showing roles where she's swearing and everything.
I wonder what Gary's c.v. is like? I wonder what his second name is? Anyway he's doing the show with his Dark Gary alter ego right now. It's a big change but I hope the show will go on.

Completed 3D Classics: Kirby's Adventure, final score
For some reason the 3D Classics version of this game has a high score table. I'm not sure if it matters at all but in case you're interested my final score is 460000.

What is Metroid Other M all about?
So far it sounds like it's about a girl who had a falling out with her clique and now she's trying to get back with them after she lost her baby.
