Legend of Zelda – The Minish Cap (GBA)

Roll Attack GET! And I got another bit of heart container – I have officially Rull Realth[0]! Now. Must stop playing Zelda. Work to do. [0] It should probably be noted at this point that “Rull Realth” is a hangover from Scooby Doo: Night of 100 Frights – a game which I urge you to

Legend of Zelda – The Minish Cap (GBA)

Hah! No way am I tackling the boss yet! I’ve just realised I only have four of the sword attack power ups and I need to have all seven before I can learn the über-swipe. So, I’m off on another four quests. First it’s off to Mount Crenel to learn the Roll Attack. Then it’s

Another Code (DS)

They’ve done it. Finally. Yesterday, another code was an enjoyable adventure game with a nice story. Today it’s a work of absolute genius.

Aaaaaargh!

There’s just too many! This is silly. There are 185 (that’s one hundred and eighty five) games on my shelves, for various platforms, and I’ve only completed a dozen or so. Doesn’t represent very good value for money really. I stuck em all into Delicious Library (and ace application – you can find it here.
