    Never played it myself but it is kind of like Nintendo's version of The Sims.

    Shit is addicting, man. I'm playing it as I type this message on my phone. I still don't have NCAA '14 and its mostly because I don't have time to fit it into my Animal Crossing schedule.

    My sister was addicted to the one on the GameCube. Is the new one much different? The one on the Wii wasn't from what I remember.

    The Wii version was a lazy up-port of the DS version. This is as new as Animal Crossing can be and it's way better than any other version.

    Anyone going to be picking up Disney Infinity for PS#/360 whenever it releases? It looks to be the same format as Skylanders where you have to buy characters/box sets. It kids are fascinated with it.

    What is the difference between gaming and hobbies like chess? Can one become the other? Are some games more like hobbies? And how do casual gamers become core gamers?

    Things just keep getting worse for the WiiU. First there was this.

    and now the ultimate insult. Poor Target has no clue what a WiiU looks like. Inserts Wii console in advertisement.




    Just waiting for a nice $150 price drop and this + Mario and that Lego game will be mine.

    So, it seems in the last couple weeks, a brand spanking new Gamestop moved into a strip mall on the north side of town, just had their grand opening this past week, so I no longer have to make 15-20 minute (one way) trips down US 24 to the next town over to visit Gamestop.

    I may actually start going back to Gamestop now, at least for new, release-day purchases (fuck them and their shitty, bend you over the table and ream you a new one used game prices). Go make the 5 minute drive through downtown to the Gamestop on the north side of town at 10am on release day and get a game, or wait for UPS to drop off my copy from Amazon anywhere between 1pm and 5pm (and who the hell knows when exactly it'll be, it changes every damn time). And it's actually a really nice store. Granted it's only a week old, but very roomy, much bigger than the store in Napoleon and it has better lighting and layout.

    I may have to give some thought over the next week or two of possibly cancelling my Amazon pre-order of Grand Theft Auto V and moving it to Gamestop. A 15 minute trip to the north side of town and back and be playing by 10:30am, or wait for who the hell knows when UPS will get around to delivering my game between 1pm and 5pm. The 15 minute round trip visit to the new Gamestop in town works for me.

    I will say it is nice to finally have one here. There's been one in Napoleon (15-20 minute drive one way) and Bryan (20-25 minute trip one way) for years, and making the drive was always a waste of gas and time since that was the only reason I had for going to either of those cities. So eventually I went 99.99% Amazon when it came to buying games, only once or twice picking them up at Walmart.

    Being a town around 16,000, according to the last census though that seems low, I was also wondering why there was never a Gamestop in town. We've had two independent video game stores in town, but I've never really visited them. People have had issues with them in the past, plus they're located right in the middle of downtown on the main drag, which makes finding parking a bitch just to even stop in for two minutes.

    It takes me 1.5 hours, one way, to pick up my daughter and she lives on the other side of town. I really don't want to hear about your waste of time and gas for a 15 minute drive.

    Other side of town? I have to drive through two states to get to my nearest Gamestop.

    I'm considering playing through the Mass Effect Trilogy for the umpteenth time. Such an amazing experience.

    I have thought about replaying this as well, but I think I want it on PC so I will wait until someone puts it on sale again.
