Goals in my life:

1)  Have kids that aren't deformed in some way
2)  Retire at some time in my life, wealthy and fit
3)  Visit the Nintendo World store

Nice pictures!

Hey, I got that mint container at the import candy store here girl

I love those patches. If you decide to go back after I get back to the states and would be willing to pick some up lemme know. Those are sweet.

I've been to NYC. I hated it. I mean I really hated it. I was there in July 2004 and the entire city smelled like urine and stagnant garbage. My question is, is this joint really worth dealing with my hate of NYC for a visit? Will I really see things I've never seen and are the items available for purchase really that wicked? Here's how much I hate NYC - I was sooooooo happy to get back to New Jersey and it felt like home in comparison. Now I'm not a huge fan of Jersey either but damn it looked downright beautiful in comparison. I would like to check it out but I just dunno if I could deal with the city just for one stop....

Oh have you ever been to the Toys R Us in/near Times Square? There's a giant Mario statue in the video games section. Actually the whole store was really wicked. I took a pic of me with Mario, upload it at a later date.

I'm with you on the NYC thing.  Dirtiest city I've ever been to.  I went in August of 2005, and then went to Chicago in Septembet of 2005 and the two seemed to be worlds apart.     Of course, this is only counting the central business districts of both. Chicago has a lot of large industrial complexes, but they are far enough from downtown to make much of a difference.

I will give NYC one more chance, but when I go back it will be anytime but during the summer.

Actually, yes there is a Pokemon Centere located in the back corner of the first floor. I have a few more pictures that I will add later from my second trip.

I would, but unfortunately I just moved back to Washington State. I went one more additional time and it was just as bad as my previous time(urine). You have to get used to it. I really enjoyed my trip into the city, because it's now something I can cherish forever...and not everyone has the chance to make it to NY. If you can overcome the smell, it is quite worth it. It really smells bad in the subway located by the south ferry.

I have been to the Toys R Us and it's sweet! The toy store does have that Mario statue and yes, please post a pic of it. I have one on my website, but he is sun faded and just horribly wrong.

The store was great & had an awesome merchandise section. They had T-shirts and other memorabila that I've never seen before for sale. They also have limited edition Nintendo D.S.'s, shigeru miyamoto limited edition autographed D.S.'s (sold out by the way) which were unbelieveably awesome! It's just the whole experience in the store makes it worth while, so if you get the chance, go for it.

Here is me at Toys R Us in NYC. I honestly dunno if I could overcome the urine and the sardine-ish sense of vertigo I get from being in that concrete crapper, even for Nintendo  yuck

NOTE: Mario is on top of a box and I am app 5'7".

That is awesome. I wonder how much he gets paid to by the voice of Super Mario? That would be a killer job.
