For real though, me and my bro got it when it came out. Costco packaging with extra controller. We were sooooo stoked. Not quite as much as the n64 kid, but close

a bike and a vhs with 3 vhs disney movies when i was little man i thought i had just conquered the world cuz i loved watching tv and my sister worked at blockbuster. then i switched from plastic rollerblades to a bike.

this year for graduation i got a car, but does it still count if i have to pay for it for the next 2 months then later in life when i get a better paying job the rest of the payments for 5 yrs or whatever is left of the loan?

This isn't me, but this is a coworker of mine. She's 16 and she's older than she should be. Crappy mom, takes care of her sisters, pays for everything....well she recently planned a trip to Japan to study abroad through her high school. Her plane ticket is already paid for, all she needed money for was room and board. She's been having a suuuper hard time getting the money, as the economy sucks and the restaurant has been slow. Well, her secret santa at work put together a gift basket to auction off, which she did successfully raising $250. She also gave her $200 in yen...she already had some money exchanged for her. This girl was through the roof with happiness, it was really amazing to witness. Gotta give the utmost respect to someone with a heart like that.

Well I did get a gamecube with super smash bros which was sick.

However, my grandparents came for dinner tonight and we opened their presents early because they were here, and I have a hat from the 88 Olympics, and a bunch of pins from the 88 olympics, one from 84, and one from St. Moritz in '48! So legit, I'm super stoked on it. AND they got me 2 CDs which I really wanted. Quite pleased right now, such a meaningful gift.

I looked at that one too, but then decided to waste that money on Saga. :-(
Let me know if you like it, I might have to pick one up sometime later. It's only like $150 correct?
