– This “Day One Edition” business sort of bothers me. Do I pick up this edition even though I probably won’t be getting a Day One Console? This is a decision I should not be making.
– A week away from the launch of a new generation, play this classic from five generations ago.
– Has Mario Party been fun lately? I enjoyed the Gamecube version, but just barely. It has potential but it just hasn’t been great lately.
– Ubisoft kicks things off with the first of many compilation discs.
– In addition to these multi-game offerings are also “Game of the Year” offerings, and I would concur that Borderlands 2 is a Game of the Year, and if you haven’t picked up Borderlands 2 yet, this is a great chance to do so.
– There seems to be quite a bit of value in the disc. I may pick it up just for RE6.
– Arkham Origins looks like it might be the last day-one purchase for me for this generation. But it should be a good one.
– As Kevin McCallister once said, “It’s for the kids”.
– AKA Super Pac-Man Galaxy
– Here it is, my white whale. After much consideration, I have not yet purchased a Wii U. I don’t know if I ever will. If that happens, I will always rue the day I never got to play Wind Waker HD. Wind Waker is in my top 3 video games of all time and playing it in HD might vault it to #1.
– The 3DS is really coming into its own. With Etrian Odyssey, Batman and Pokemon X&Y, it’s quite the contender.
– Harvest Moon, you say?! Another chance to link my 
– I still hold out hope that we’ll get Disgaea on the 3DS, but that looks less and less likely to happen.
