Here's mine. Twas a Christmas present from my boyfriend.

Also, no need to point out how worn my mouse looks. The relatives do that enough.

Here's one I threw together after borrowing New Super Mario Bros. Wii from my step-sister, a Wiimote from my nephew and a digital camera from my mom. Of course, it isn't quite on par with the stuff I made in the past. I still like it though.

I've set up a bunch of Mario stuff in my room awhile ago and decided to take a picture for this topic. So...here some of my stuff.



It's hard to tell, but the stuff on the little shelf on the top right are various Mario-related cards. I might get around to taking a picture of those too sometime.

Then there's the little matter of all my Luigi stuff, but..well... Eheheh...

Um...uh...wow... That water starter looks like a cross between Piplup and Bidoof with goodness-knows thrown in for kicks. I'll probably pick it anyway since I have a thing for water starters. Besides, there's more to Pokémon than looks.

It took me a few months to do it, but I've raised up enough money to get Super Mario Galaxy 2. Oh, joy! :D

I try to get in at least half an hour of outside time everyday. It's not too surprising that it isn't as enjoyable when it's cloudy and of course rain just plain prevents it. Also, I rather enjoy letting the sun shine through my bedroom window and get a little bummed out when it doesn't on account of clouds.

Then again, I haven't even been in this state for a year yet (that will happen on June 1st), so I'm still getting used to the climate here. At least there's not much snow in winter like there was in Michigan. Overall, I tend to dislike cold.

I especially like the screenshot caption on page 23.

*checks*

Wow. I have no idea how I missed that. Or the people that wrote this thing for that matter.

I'd also like to point out that the list of power-ups on pages 10 & 11 has FLUDD and the Small Heart from SMB2 (which is a bit of a stretch in my opinion), but does not mention the Wing Cap, Metal Cap or Vanish Cap.

Are you all forgetting about Mario is Missing or are you just choosing to ignore it?

Seriously though. I find it funny that most of Mario's lines have two versions; a Brooklyn accent one and an Italian accent one.

Huh. I don't even recognize most of those renders.

Ah... I never get tired of that video. It's like a side of Mario that we just don't get to see in the games...

I picked this up a couple of days ago, even though I kinda had to cut into my funding for SMG2 to do so. It's a cute read and the posters and stickers ought to come in handy.

I've had this happen with other games, It can easily be fixed by closing the DS for a second except for Animal Crossing: Wild World which can't be put in sleep mode.

Well, I've talked to animal control about it. They said that if it happens again to anyone (not just me), call them again and they'll take all of the guy's dogs.

I'm not even sure if "neglectful" is even the right term. The guy was right at his mailbox when this occurred, but he didn't even do anything. Heck, he probably endorses this behavior.

Here's another voice acting mystery though (two, actually):[/b] What does Wario say in the Mario Power Tennis intro at the very beginning? Mario hits the ball, they both miss, and after Luigi says, "We did it!", it sounds like Wario says something like, "Shee-tahls."

I have reason to believe that he is saying "cheaters."

I already have. The thing is, though, this has happened a number of times already and the cops have been called. But in this case, the guy's neighbor saw the whole thing. Hopefully something will be done this time.
