I will. I'm getting Glacier with Super Mario Advance and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. Mad Hatter, did you play THPS2? Is it any good? I played SMA at Wal*Mart, it kicked *****.

I had my GBA pre-ordered at Fred Meyer but I canceled it because I need the cash (quit my job). Hopefully I'll get a new job (maybe tomorrow) and pick one up late this month/July. Bomberman is really the game I'm looking most forward to.

Um... er. In an attempt to defuse any possible bragging on my part or jealousy on anyone else's part, let's just say that I will indeed be "obtaining" one, though I don't have a choice on the color. (Gotlucky: part of my job is reviewing video games.)
I'm really looking forward to it. A new Mario Kart, a new Castlevania... I'll be a happy Hatter.

Mad Hatter, do you work for a video game website? I hope it's www.IGN.com they rule

I wish I did work for ign.com (they do indeed rule), but afraid not. I write for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, and do a gaming column in addition to all sorts of other stuff. If any of you care to look at my Pixelated column that comes out every Friday, go to www.ardemgaz.com and look in the weekend section. Though I think last Friday's column may have been deleted already.

I'll be passing because I don't play video games that much anymore. The last game I bought was pokemon red (long story). I might have to buy it if a batman beyond game with inque comes out...

My review copy arrived today (glacier, by the way). Work ground to a halt at my newspaper as everyone wanted to try out the new F-Zero. My only complaint... no power cord outlet! You're stuck using batteries! Still, I'll be busy this weekend...

I look forward to the release of new 2d games much more than new 3d ones.....3d is flashy,but it just isnt as charming....

Tony Hawk looks amazing, particularly for this teeny portable thing. Though personally, I can't wait to get the new Castlevania game. Been too long since I've been able to whip vampires...
