A Good Week

Last week was a blast with the stomache flu. I hope I get another dose. Put me out of commsion for 36 hours. But I'm back in the game.
Here we go!
Wii released a newer slightly different interface for the shop. Meh. They can do better. There are some yummy offerings in the shop this week. Galaga 90 and Wave Race 64. OMG Wave Race. I put so many hours into that game. I actually imported it from Japan because I couldn't wait. It was the best import purchase I ever made. I had that game mastered up and down, side to side. It was amazing for its time. The water effects were smooth and luscious. Playing on the Drake Lake stage was amazing because you would start off with a smooth reflective morning lake covered in patches of fog and by the 3rd lap, the water would be rough and the fog lifted. Awesome stuff, Nintendo. Downloaded. I couldn't get into the Gamecube sequel though. Not really sure why. It was almost the same game.
Galaga 90 was a gem as well. Take Galaga, add some cool sound effects and music and some scrolling stages and you get the 90. Loved it. I downloaded this as well.
Blizzard announced the Lich King expansion this weekend. Enough to make my monkey wiggle. New Hero class, new tradeskill, new continent, and increased level cap. Won't see this one until January at the ealiest.
Boogie comes out this week.. . I need to read a good review first.
Been playing Aegis Wing this week. I love it. Wish I coulda got into it months ago when people were playing it.
Dragon Quest 4-6 being remade for the DS! Please bring this to the Americas!! I beg!
GTA gets delayed until next year. Almostkindamaybe saw that coming. Never got into GTA but I guess its about as good as it gets for open world western (not Japanese) style gaming.
The 360 takes a price dive this week. Down $50 from before.
Track & Field comes out for the Arcade tomorrow. Not too excited but I'll be playing it. I hope it aged better than Yie Ar Kung Fu.
