I love that picture. It’s like he’s being propelled skywards off the back of an unexpectedly huge fart.

LostWinds looks really good. If I had a Wii and broadband and stuff I’d definitely get that.
Edit: Link to gameplay vid?

May 12th you say? Where did you hear that
/isn’t reading stuff
Hopefully I won’t be able to play this or any other non DS game until mid November though. Has some wicked plans that might come to fruition.

In the US. They always said it was a launch title. Still don’t know when WiiWare’s launching in Europe, isn’t it.
