What was your high score on the Spunky Monkey game again? I can't find it in a search, but I think you said it was about 182 or thereabouts (couple of years back now). I just got well past 1000 (and even then just gave up due to boredom rather than dying)! Sadly when you get to 999, the score counter just sticks, rather than extending to allow you to get 4 figure scores, or using a special symbol to display the first character (like Super Mario Brothers 1 does).
No special message/nothing is unlocked by it, what a gyp. I've just given myself a certain case of RSI for nothing.

GC, but the game features in both GC & GBA versions. I've not played the DS one.

Did you plan to get a Wii, Ceri? I can't remember.

I really didn't like the sound/idea of them when they were in development. As they got nearer to release date, I have warmed to them more and more. I still stand by my original statement that I thought they were a bit of a novelty rather than a proper console, a predominantly "party game" machine; IE a whole console where the best games/main focus would be on simple multiplayer games, but I don't have such a problem with this now I've played one.
I will get one for my birthday: I just ordered Warioware Smooth moves for it today, as it happens.
I think 90% of my time on it will be spent on multiplayer games. I'd say the main reason I like it is because of what a disappointment the 360 and ps3 are. At least the wii allows something new; all the games I've seen on the other two are really just xbox games with better graphics. Seeing as I don't have a HD tv, even the graphical improvement will be limited.

I remember you played the GBA one lots and bought a freeloader to play the GC one. I must admit, I've not played the GC one as much as the GBA one. I was just getting some practice in before Wariowar smooth moves arrives.
Dannn_, I remember you really liked Warioware too.
What are your favourite minigames, gentlemen?

You speak the truth in the second part of your post. I'll buy Wario Ware Smooth moves too anyway, it must be really fun to play it with a Wiimote in your hand! I really liked the one that came out on DS as well, wicked.
I'm currently playing with Zelda on my Wii, it's magic. At moment I can't remember if you used to appreciate Zelda in general, but I recommend it for sure.

I've always thought the Zelda games were good, but I also didn't enjoy them quite as much as popular opinion would suggest I should. The only ones I really played a lot of were the second one on the N64 and the second one on the NES. The original GBA one was okay too, but I didn't play it for more than a few hours.
I've played the new Wii one and it's one of the best yet imo, but even in the half hour or so I played it, I had that familiar sensation of my attention wandering, failing to connect with the characters and feeling as if the pace was too slow.

I know the one you mean, I think it's called "Chicken Pinch". That's my favourite of the "press the right time to grab it" games.
Indeksical, that's on the GBA version too.
Dannn_: My apologies, it appears that's the second time today that my memory has been wrong.
