I've been kinda thinking, now that December 1st has rolled around, that "oh crap, I've gotta start looking for gifts for people -- and people are gonna start asking what I want" o.o
So well, to start, there's my Amazon Wishlist. Note that there's a few things that use the "Universal Wishlist" meaning that Amazon doesn't carry them, but links you to the store that does. (I really, really like that feature; it makes everything centralized.) I just went through it and weeded out anything that doesn't interest me anymore (or is likely to be replaced with something new in the new year, such as Shout! Factory's Box Set of Reboot).
I've been kinda thinking about what else I want, but to be honest, I've been pretty frugal recently. I've been happy with what I've got, and actually, I have enough to keep myself rather busy and entertained for quite some time. The Bakery has been on my mind almost constantly and it's been taking a majority of my time, my Laptop has been repaired to a mostly-fully-functional state, and looking at my Desktop computer, the only thing I think I might want to replace is the DVD Burner - it still burns, but since I recently ran out of hard drive space (!) I think I need either a hard drive upgrade or a Blu-Ray burner to offload some of the materials that are sitting on the "Torrents" drive. (The entire drive can be backed-up on 223 DVDs, or 40 Blu-Ray discs. Guess which one would be a major time-saver? ;P But they're expensive - see below.)
I even decided to forego my pre-order of Disney's Epic Mickey for the Wii because it came out this past week - way too close to Christmas. Considering that I have such an extreme collection of backlogged games (on PC, Wii, and Xbox, and I just keep playing DJ Hero 2 and Rock Band 3) that I can't fathom picking up more games. Heck, I haven't finished Professor Layton and the Unwound Future yet! (However, I have to say that Dance Central looks pretty neat, but I've been told it's hard to find the Kinect Hardware, and I haven't really seen a lot of good games for it yet - the hacks I'm seeing are just incredible though.)
However, I want to emphasize that I've just come out of debt after selling the condo, and at this point in time, do not wish to go back into debt, nor do I wish any of my friends and family to do so either. I am humbly requesting to not go overboard with gifts this year. I still plan on doing gifts this year, just... man, I've gotta get on that if I'm gonna beat the crowds (or the deadline for ordering and having them shipped)...

Really wanted Other M? Amazon.com can't move them at all... And man, it might just crap all over your image/good memories of Metroid...
