Picked up Pikmin 2 on Wii, really enjoyed the first game once I got into it, so looking forward to this.

Don't forget to buy the proper ending DLC!

There's a reason I usually refer to Capcom as DLCapcom on this site. Their money-grubbing nickel & dime antics put both Microsoft and EA to shame, and that's saying something.

Crash Tag Team Racing for my GC collection and only because it was in remarkable condition considering it was in CEX.

It's okay - definitely better than the first two. It's scarily similar to F-Zero, though. Many of the mechanics seem to have been moved over wholesale.

The costume packs for SSFIV are something like £14 for the lot, and apparently if the other player doesn't have them they won't see it! I'm sure I read that there's DLC for Dead Space mobile for more in game money. Good Lord..........
