I believe that was me and my parents once. Hell, they are probably still hoping

Everybody seems to be grasping the wrong end of the stick, where that commentâ€™s concerned. The mystery game in question isnâ€™t actually a console game and wasnâ€™t made in Japan. So everyone whoâ€™s guessing at Mario RPG or NiGHTS 2 is going to be disappointed.
Chuckie Egg.
I'd have hoped it was Manic Miner, but that made its way onto a Japanese computer (MSX cart and cassette), so it may not be that.

They're going to release Elite.

but they're enhancing it to use the Wiimote and it will be online play enabled

Got any figures for lower down? Was wondering if Blue Dragon was out yet. If it is, oh dear.

Thats also the lowest number of DS titles in the top ten for some time now. Not that I imagine Nintendo are fussed.

Couldn't find this anywhere on here with a quick search, so here's how to get Wii Play for free

Goto game.co.uk
Order Wii Play with Wii Remote (for Â£34.99, they're in stock!)
Use this code at the checkout: J3PW74
Get a fiver off!

The code's valid for a fiver off any purchase over Â£30 so you're not limited to Wii Play, but at least you're getting a remote and Wii Play for the price of a remote.

http://www.play3K.com have it for Â£27.99 (delivered).

So technically they are paying you Â£2 for playing it!

Bargain....the rest of their Wii stuff is surprisingly cheap, too!
