Nice! I picked up the Collectors Edition too @the midnight release.
Bunch of crap I don't really need but hey, it's StarCraft! I had to get it!
The box looks badass next to my Hydralisk figure on my desk. Haha

I went to one of those championships... i remember there was a HUGE blown up Mario standing out front... of course, it was massive to me cause I was a shorty, but still... I wanted to compete, but didn't think my skills were good enough. Mario style games just weren't my strength.

I never had to get Nintendo Power because my friend got it and I'd just read his haha.

HAHAHAHAHA oh man....god, the memories that this thread is bringing back!!! I might start crying tears of joy here in a second.

And those tears can only be cleared away with one thing - my Nintendo Track Pad to go along with my Track and Field game!! Did anyone else have that?!
