Good Cod those were some bad fish puns. Oh well, I guess you wrote them just for the Halibut.

Personally, I found they were complete pain in the bass. I trout they could come up with worse.

Ugh!! Gill me now!

I expect these games will make quite the splash, especially since they're big fish in a very small pond. I don't think selling well will be an upstream battle, at least so long as people are casting a fairly wide net of expectations.  ;)

I went to mcdonalds for lunch and with nintendozone attempted to dowonload star fox 64 3d, and about 40 minutes later 15%. done. I had to cancel the download and leave. I got back home and restarted the downloads without much problem ( I had to look around menu's) but whatev they at least were smart enough to know I bought it and didn't complain about redownloading it.

NO!

Yeah, it's nice they offer free wi-fi, but it's not very fast.

I dunno, I hear that the fishing game is kinda crappie.
