The Impossible Shopping List
Man. Today I decided to make a list of all the games (and game systems) I need to buy between now and Dec. 31, and the results are -not- pretty. Between PS3 and Wii and everything else, this is easily going to be the most expensive holiday season ever.
Here's the list as it stands now:
10/25: Phantasy Star Universe (X360/US)
10/26: Tales of the Tempest (DS/JP)
10/31: Final Fantasy XII (PS2/US)
11/2: Every Extend Extra (PSP/US)
11/2: Lumines II (PSP/US)
11/6: Final Fantasy V Advance (GBA/US)
11/7: Gears of War (X360/US)
11/7: Sega Genesis Collection (PS2/US)
11/11: PlayStation 3 (JP)
11/11: Ridge Racer 7 (PS3/JP)
11/14: Final Fantasy III (DS/US)
11/14: Gunpey (DS/US)
11/14: Gunpey (PSP/US)
11/16: Akumajyou Dracula: Gallery of Labyrinth (DS/JP)
11/17: PlayStation 3 (US)
11/17: Resistance: Fall of Man (PS3/US)
11/19: Wii (US)
11/19: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii/US)
11/19: Excite Truck (Wii/US)
11/19: Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (Wii/US)
11/22: Bokura no Taiyou: Django & Sabata (DS/JP)
11/22: Culdcept Saga (X360/JP)
11/22: Jeanne d'Arc (PSP/JP)
11/22: Tales of Destiny (PS2/JP)
12/1: Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops (PSP/US)
12/2: Wii (JP)
12/2: Odoru Made in Wario (Wii/JP)
12/2: Hajimete no Wii (Wii/JP)
12/7: Blue Dragon (X360/JP)
12/7: Motor Storm (PS3/JP)
12/14: Fushigi no Dungeon: Furai no Shiren DS (DS/JP)
12/21: Ys Origin (PC/JP)
12/21: Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology (PSP/JP)
12/21: Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (X360/JP)
Ugh! And that doesn't even include the stuff I'm on the fence about (Yoshi's Island DS, Elite Beat Agents, Gyakuten Saiban 2, Ryuusei no Rockman, .hack//G.U., Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker, etc. etc.)
There's no way I can afford all this stuff. I've got to trim it down somehow! Help!

Back Soon
Just a little note to let you know that I'm still alive and updates will be resuming shortly! I've got a couple of things in the works:
1. I'm moving this blog over to WordPress and bringing back comments (yay). Many of you comment on the LJ and 1UP versions of my site, but this blog's true home is at www.nokonoko.net, and it's been without comments for a long time because of all the problems with Movable Type spam. Soon those problems will be no more.
2. The blog will once again be known as Super Deluxe. Photos will be making a return appearance as well, though I'm not yet sure if I'll be incorporating it into the main blog or as a separate section.
3. I have loads and loads to talk about. Like the fact that I'm insane and flying to New York to take part in the American PS3 and Wii launches (yes, despite being in Japan, I've managed to lock down both a Wii and a PS3 preorder in the US).
Lots of rants on my mind, too. Stay tuned! The next few months are gonna be a blast.
What are you guys playing lately? And what are you looking forward to?
