I wonder if I tell them, would I get special treatment?

Too bad my "contraband" DS might not be allowed anyhow(a.k.a. R4 in it >.>), or I could simply go without a cartridge.

Looks good, I went to the Celebi one when it was on, decent nonetheless, can anyone describe these tours to the "virgins"?



I don't think they'll mind the R4. They're not illegal in Australia, just as long as you dont pirate any games using it, but it's not like the staff memebers are gonna be going through your DS.

Draggyn said: yeah! I've been waiting for this year's, since I missed last year!

Pity too, because last year was a Pokémon comp.

Oh well, Smash Bros Brawl is prolly a better comp anyways!

Who else is from SA? I'm thankful it's coming to SA last, gives me plenty of time to practice after Brawl is released!

And I already have a Posse! We hang every weekend, and we'll be there at Marion on the 14th, guarenteed, even though it's a Monday...



MyMedia SA team can be rockin out there

One always goes to fg. It's good I guess, if you minus the number of geeky fanboys plus little pokemon kids

they'll let you win Guitar Hero DS because that the only way I'll buy it
