Since they are broken, just take out the board on the inside and glue the buttons in place. Will eliminate most of the weight. Should end up being pretty close to the weight of some of those bigger ornaments that way. Im going to do that this year. I got a box full of crap controllers.

Ha, nice.  I can imagine it'd look pretty good with the different colors of controllers they have available these days.

I believe my Secret Santa present arrived today! It feels really kinda heavy too, man I am tempted to open it!

Must resist.

I'm extremely weak willed when it comes to curiosity. The box was under the tree and tempting me... finally I gave in. Totally awesome stuff was in there and had me grinning super wide. Thanks Santa, you're bad ass!

Got mine today, and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised!

I got the game I actually least expected to get off my list, and thanks to my Secret Santa I know have Megadeth's greatest album in my music collection once again! (And it was a brand-spanking-new remastered copy!) I'm listening to it right now as I type this.

Xenogears was also complete, and not even a Greatest Hits version!

Thank you Secret Santa!

Don't worry, I promise to be sorely disappointed with my gift(s).  SORELY.

@Redblaze Nice! That label looks great. Reminds me that I really need to eventually give my copy a play through (never got very far in it  myself)

@burningdoom Ooh Xenogears! Nice! I hope to eventually get my own copy one day, that one looks really nice.

So far VGC's Secret Santa seems to be a huge hit!

So...anyone else wanna' play with me  ;)

The name of the game is trying to guess (based on what the people who have already showed/said what they've received from their secret Santa) ==>  who's who in the world of Secret Santas?

I'm gonna' go out on a limb and say that:

- it was Desocietas + Kimimi,

- that killed Soera in his gaming room, by using

- a 1HKO/Insta-death kind of skill  :o

Seriously, though - guess away (if ya wanna:)

I had a moment of weakness last night...



My Secret Santa is the winner.  I'm almost ashamed to have sent my package.  This is amazing.  My Wii collection is about finished now.
