No Amigas were computers unlike Ataris.
But basically all we used them for was playing games.

Yes, the Commodore Amiga was the same as the Atari ST, but all the cool people had an Amiga (which means I didn't, I got a SNES instead).

Sweet god, the Wii has an online store. I am very close to downloading MarioKart 64 for about £7.
I do actually own the original somewhere, this is how bonkers I am.

Already downloaded Mariokart 64 and it is still the best. I've found that my non-official Gamecube controllers don't work though, so no 4-player fun yet like the old days. I hope they release Dune 2: Battle For Arakkis - one of my all-time faves on the Megadrive/Genesis.
I was playing Wii tennis for about two hours last night and I think I've got whiplash.
What is your best bowling score? I'm on 258. In real life I can barely get 150.

I'm not great at bowling, I think my best is about 185.
I have now downloaded MarioKart 64. Ocarina of Time may follow, but I should really play the new one Twilight Princess.
Have you got any Miis? We can swap if you want, I'll dig my wii code out.

I have loads of cool Miis, including Captain Jack Sparrow, Sydney Bristow, Ugly Betty and Michael Jackson!
When I get hooked up to broadband again, I'll send them travelling in your direction.
Twilight Princess is stunning, even though it isn't the prettiest game. You must have a go at Warioware - it's the funniest thing you'll ever do in front of your telly!

You can now add a Wii to my list.  It's so beautiful. Plus, my DS is hanging on by one hinge, so I think a DS Lite is on the cards very soon! Since that post I have added a DS Lite and an XBOX360. The cabinet under my TV has now reached critical mass - it can hold no more! New list is as follows: Nintendo: 2xN64 1xGameboy 1xGBA 1xGBA Clamshell 1xDS 1xGamecube 1xDS Lite Sony: 1xFat PS2 1xSkinny PS2 Microsoft: 1x360 Does anyone have any ideas about under-telly space management? Also, don't even get me started on the cable jungle at the back! |

I live in fear that my TV area will burst into flames at any moment, there are so many cables back there.
My most recent purchase was Pikmin 2, which I forgot to pick up for GC when it came out.

I think I'm going to photograph it being baseball batted. I'm planning to exhibit a series of images showing technological icons being destroyed by sports equipment!
