| Hopefully they do, because seven's actually not a bad turnout.

| That's all right, I put it to manual settings so I could make the draw as early or as late as I wanted. I just made the draw there - everybody will know they're giving to |

| My gift arrived, thanks santa but as you may have seen in the twitter chat that parcel has been ripped and I can see stuff is inside.
I don't know if all the stuff that should be there is there, I might be just thinking the worse but has someone ripped it open and maybe taken something.
It's a xmas present so I don't want to open it to the 25th but can see it being a pain sorting with royal mail, if something has been taken waiting till then. |

| Not expecting to log back in here for a few days at least, so better make this point now before my guy thinks I'm (any more of) a wank: - Point to raise for my recipient's Secret Santa presents:
I hope you're not too raging when you open your present and see the main thing is a game for a console I know you don't have. I'd bought that because I thought you'd perhaps like to and maybe enjoy playing it with your daughter, who I understand you'd got a Switch Lite for last year. I'd meant to include a note saying that, but I wrapped and posted your gift while I was extremely hungover, and I'd seen that I left that note on my table by the time I was sent off to you. Apologies again if you're pissed off.
I hope you can enjoy the game with your daughter, but if it's useless to you, then hopefully the trade-in value mostly compensates for that, and hopefully you still like the other nick-nacks.

| - My received gifts:
I thought I'd start with a picture of my Santa's gifts, which were beautifully wrapped up and make me feel a bit embarrassed about my own efforts. Right: you may have got a nice game to play. You may have got some lovely goodies, or nice sweets. Your gift may even have made you laugh. But did you get: the Literal Spirit of Christmas? Because I did! ('Candy Cane Gin Liqueur' to be precise.) And a fair bit more besides. I specifically asked for comestibles and my Santa certainly delivered (badum tish). The fact that he found some gaming-related merchandise was also a really nice touch! Even if it looks more like the Dualshock than anything else. Sadly some details on the liqueur bottle made my Santa reasonably easy to guess, but that only means I can (in my head) congratulate him on a good job well done early doors. Thank you Santa!

| I opened my pressies while on a video call with the fam. I had a box in one hand and a little thing in the other, said: this is a monster hunter figure and this is a sexually explicit chocolate. Actually, the box was some lindt and the other present was a cute little Kubfu.
Cheers! |

| Hey lads, sorry for the radio silence, had Covid and also time off work so haven’t been around much. Got a copy of yakuzas worst minigame in virtual fighter 5 on 360, but it was all forgiven when I received a beautiful photo of Goro Marina (I also received some NGamer books. Cheers Santa! |

| Thanks to my Secret Santa for my gifts, I got an Animal Crossing heat change mug which I'll share a picture of when I have chance to use it and some After Dinner Nipples because I'm a classy gentleman who has after dinner mints. Again I'll share a picture when I sit down to enjoy them, I've been at the slightly prudish in-laws today so not sure they'd see the funny side of chocolate nippples. |

| I got Sushi Striker on Switch, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Manga and an MGS wristband.
I reckon Balla got for me as think he likes Sushi and would go into the anime thread, where a Cappa wouldn't. |

Maaaaaaate - Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is the perfect game! My eldest is really into puzzles and board games at the moment so getting her into Tetris is a great shout. I was looking to get a second game that was a puzzle title anyway (Brain Academy was the one, but pretty sure this is a better choice). And I'll certainly be trying it out myself! - Crumpy Andy wrote:

Some of your bits didn't turn up until the 23rd so I improvised and threw in Virtua Fighter 5 as I saw the Yakuza characters have been added to the PS4 version and figured you could try the original. Although as you rightly point out, it's already in some of the Yakuza games! I just hope the Goromi poster wasn't opened around family |

| Well I guess reveals are already happening... - I was Santa for...:
...Mas! I thought the attention I was paying to the success of his parcel would be the giveaway, not the manga - but in hindsight, yep.
I was glad to get you Mas: not only have you always been nice and/or subdued about your gifts, it's an opportunity to make up for the last time I was your Santa and got you a rubbish joke present. Hopefully this was better. I reckoned half the budget wasn't bad for a sealed first-hand copy of a game I didn't think you had: not a Mas game per se, but you do play a variety of things and I think it's pretty damn good (and all the 'Mas games' I could find were pricey or bad or both). The manga was the best merch I could find for the price for a series I believe you're keen on? And the wristband made up the cost.
Hope you enjoy them!

| When this delivery from Genki Video Games hit my doormat, I could tell from the size of the parcel that there was an N64 game inside. I lurk on that website a couple of times a week for N64 games and see what stock comes in and goes away. I’d quickly figured out that I’d be getting Tohkon Road here, and that’s unlucky as it’s the only N64 game that I’d bought from the same retailer this year. I was prepared to put on a brave face… …but fair fucks, my Santa was extremely generous to me here! I didn’t even know that Genki sold those old eReader cards, and I really like odd and nostalgic nick nacks like that. I’d never heard of this Genius Boys Academy game before, but it’s English-friendly, in as-new condition, and it’s a pretty smart little tennis game that’s made by Konami. I’ve only played a little bit of it, but first impressions are good, and I'll definitely go back and give it a proper go! A quality effort, thanks Santa! ~ - I was Santa for...:
Right enough, I was gjones’s Santa. I’m glad that youse can enjoy the Switch game together. Even so, there’s no computer game ever made that’s as good as those Oor Willie chews - they’re the bollocks.
On another note, I've been gifted those After Dinner Nipples before - they're actually all right, tasty nips! |
