    I'm off work on Friday! Soooo tempted to skip college and just go and get it at 9.30 and go home, buy craploads of caffeine and sit and play until my thumbs bleed.

    Oh god.. Smyths tell me because its an unpopular GC game it might not show up in their store for 2 weeks, he said the same thing happened with Paper mario 2 :mad:

    Might try Gamestop. Jesus this town is terrible for GC stuff. I went through the same crap for MP1.

    I mean unpopular as in the whole GC franchise in general is unpopular. Here in Waterford there is very little GC coverage at all.

    *bumpity bump*

    Soo.. not too long now only 29 or so hours? :)

    Gamestop tell me they're expecting copies friday so here's hoping. I'm preparing myself for them not getting any copies until next week though.

    Anyone been to the site by those 2advanced guys? Probably old news now to most of ye but It's bloody cool. It's kinda bandwith heavy, but its nice and quick with the bb at work. www.metroid.com and select MP2 if you're interested.

    WHOA WHOA WHOA BIG NEWS!!!!!

    THE GAME IS ONLY 45 EURO FOR ALL YOU STANDARD PEOPLE!!!! :D


    was in work late this evening and scanned in a MP2 and it is only 45 euro! i am so delighted but I suggest you buy it as quick as possible cause I think it's a mistake cause harvest moon was 45 when it was released but it was put up to 60 about a month after!.



    oho and unfortunately we dont get the cool shiney box the U.S people got.

    OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!
    So cheap! Same as a GBA game! I can see a price change being sent down on friday morning though.
    Argh. Decisions. TKD at 1 on Fri is looking so skippable (despite impending black tag grading...) And I'm invited to a party that night. But MP2...
    *sells soul*

    BTW, I'm aware of the lack of coherence in this post.
