Simple: Nintendo won't let 3rd parties have cool stuff before they do.

Fixed.

Like what?

Honestly, it doesn't take space-age hardware or cool features to make a good game. Just a creative mind and some programming know-how. Something like NinjaBread Man could have been a classic if the developers put some thought and effort into it to make a deep, innovative platformer, even with bad graphics and sound. Something like SMB3 is still fun to play today because it's a refined experience with good control, pacing and challenges

I doubt we would ever see the Pyro's face. So instead, I choose the Medic. It would be interesting to see what kind of gags Valve would pull off with the Medic's character. Heck, it'd be interesting just to see some of the Medic's character to begin with.

I'm free!

I've got insane thunderstorms here.
Also, I finish school tomorrow, so I'm happy for that.
Pretty crappy start to the summer in regards to the weather, though.

Well, I guess the summer doesn't really start until that last second on the clock ticks, right?

Honestly, what's going to go wrong if we don't save the whales? Will we magically die if the whales went extinct?

Kinda, yeah. The animal the whale eats will overpopulate since there is nothing to stop it from reproducing (except maybe humans, but there's only so much we can do) and the animal that ate the whale won't have any more food. The ecosystem loses it's balance, environment over. Every animal plays a part, from large whales to tiny bees (without bees, no one would pollunate our flowers and we'd be in big trouble).

Plus, do you really want the whales to die off?

You ARE using your name for which the configuration was made as you play in Classic Mode, correct?

Yeah, I discovered this after I made that post. Cheeky little Nintendo, hiding something so important at the corner of the screen...

Okay, this is weird.

I finally got my Wii fixed, slapped in SSBB, giggled at the opening and made a new controller configuration. It worked fine, so I go to play classic in solo mode. I press A and...

it switched back to the default! I went back to the control menu, and saw it saved my options, but I can't use them in the main game! What do I got to do? I saved it to my Wii remote and console, but it doesn't work. I'm using the classic controller.

Well, today was pretty cool. I finished my English exam, which I thought would be the hardest. My only exam left is the Math exam, but I'm a math wiz. After that, I'm free!

I also got Mario Kart Wii. I have to preform a system update in order to play it, through, which I'm not willing to do until it's fixed. Fortunately, I'm getting it fixed tomorrow, so that's great. I also got a golf glove so I won't get a blister while holding the clubs, a new pair of running shoes, and we looked into what kind of Badminton sets Wal-mart carries. This summer is gonna be different for me, I tells ya.

Mario has a cute expression on his face. Enjoy the kiss, Mario, you deserved it.

Peach is gonna freak when she sees this picture, though.

"As of October 19, 2006, the impact probability for April 13, 2036, was calculated as 1 in 45,000. An additional impact date in 2037 was also identified; the impact probability for that encounter was calculated as 1 in 12.3 million."

Good chances? I think not.

If any asteroid came near us nowdays, we'd probably have more then enough nukes to blow it up five times over, but imagine what kind of weapons technology we'll have by that time. Much more powerful. Combined with the low chances of it hitting us, and that thing might as well say it's prayers.

I did two tests today and I think I did rather good on them. I also didn't get much homework this weekend, I felt a rush of energy and cheer go through me at lunch time, my cat got a mouse and I even got my new health card in. If anything, this was a pretty good day. I guess that means I'm an abnormal freak, eh?

I think they might be somewhere along the lines of WiiWare for the DS, where you could download brand-new games for the system. You would probably store them on the SD card Megabyte mentioned.

We went from mild winter chill to under-the-magnifying-glass in just one day. However, as of this very moment of typing this, it's raining out.

P.S. 500th post!
