Tonight turned into Nintendo Night at J and Jenn’s place. Matt and Karen were also in attendance.

I’m fairly sure Matt isn’t just touching himself with the Wiimote.

While Matt and J faced off in Tetris DS, the girls traded off every life/level in Super Mario World.

Today I spent Christmas with my family, for the first time in 7 years.

Two of Emma’s presents were larger than she was!

One was a My Size Barbie, the other was a 3-story Barbie house.

Peanut could smell out her own present…

And this was seconds before my sister started crying over her present:

Geoff surprised her with tickets [...]

As much fun as Mario Galaxy is, and it is all kinds of fun, it leaves a little part of me wanting something more. It just doesn’t fill my serious gaming requirement. Don’t get me wrong, Mario Galaxy is 100% gaming joy - it just doesn’t have any of the serious aspect I require.

Goozex has been really picking up for me lately. After having sent out so many games, I’ve finally been getting some. Yesterday two arrived in the mail, Psychonauts and Shadow of the Colossus. I spent some time last night beating up the first three colossi, which was quite satisfying. Nice to finally use my PS2 [...]

I picked up Super Mario Galaxy this afternoon and after having sit down with it for a few hours, I can say it is most excellent. Very pretty and all kinds of fun. Now, I never played Super Mario 64, well, not all the way through. I did a bit of it on a friend’s [...]
