So, I have decided to get a Nintendo 3DS at launch, and I mean, at launch, like 12:01am on Friday 25th March 2011.
Now, I know its going to cost me about £230 for the Console and Street Fighter, that is sorted, its will I get it at 12:01am on Friday 25th March. There are 5 places in Hartlepool I can get it, and I have decided to write a brake down of the pro's and cons of each place.
I'm doing them alphabetical, its not a favouritism type thing.

If I had my own place...
There are some advantages you have when living with your mum, aunt and sister, your internet and TV are paid for, all the utilities are paid for, does your washing and food. You don't have much to do really.
But there are disadvantages, or at least there is for me. I cant record or stream without them asking what the hell im doing, or being told your a "freak" (thats my sister saying that) because your talking into a camera for it to be uploaded to the internet.
That is the biggest disadvantage for me - Because I like making videos, I liked streaming what I could during the marathon (which is hopefully coming back for the next Real World Hero event, only better). If it wasn't for living with the family, I would have a lot more videos out there than I do now.
Which leads me to the title, If I had my own place. I could record when I want, have a lot more space for a more professional set up (lights, green screen, whatever). But I cant afford it, Electricity and Gas bills are through the roof right now, so is Council Tax, Mortgages are going up so Rent has to go up to cover that. Internet and TV would be about £60/month just because I would miss the speed and all the channels and there is the phone bill at £50/month.
So it would be very nice if I had my own place, but bloody hell it would cost a fortune.

Oops, Gameage Gets
I have more money than sense, but I also got a barging. But, ya know what, I'm happy right now, really happy right now. I've updated the list with these but there so good (hardware at least) that I have to list them in its own post =D
So, here is what I picked up today:
A Philips Videopac G7000 or Magnavox Odyssey 2 as it is known in the US and 2 games and [Massive] Poster.
Another Mega Drive 1... With Mega CD 1! with 5 games.
I also picked up a second Dreamcast pad
And a Mega Drive and PS1 game from a charity shop a friend works at for £1 each
I paid £79 for the consoles and games, and considering Mega CD 1's can go for £60+ not including postage, I'm a very happy Beaver =P

Netbook Gets
So, I finally got myself a netbook. Why a netbook? Because I don't exactly need a laptop, and if I do need a laptop for anything, I can borrow my mums.
The main reason I got the netbook, is so I can lay on the bed with it, or take it out with me if we do any filming, easy access to the script, easy to make it bigger if its a really long bit of dialogue and somewhere to put the footage if the SD card gets full.
Its a lot handier having a 10.1" netbook hanging around than dragging a 15" laptop anywhere with you.
Just a shame my laptop bag is for a 17" laptop lol
