Yeah I feel pretty much the same (but it’s all self inflicted). I couldn’t resist looking at the characters/stages and spent too much time on YouTube searching for videos. The only things I haven’t ‘previewed’ are the subspace cut scenes and most of the music.

But that's not to say I don't want SSBB and no doubt I'll spend several days solid playing through the game. It's just when you're reading "why SSBB sucks" articles before it even hits Europe it’s kind off putting. I'm particularly worried about the online issues Americans are having. With Melee there was nothing better than a 4 player timed match with a group of friends and I was looking forward to a few of those with people from VGChartz, but is it even going to run?

Maybe I should try harder to look on the bright side. Did Melee have online? No. Did I play it for hours on end? Yes. And Melee is one of the GameCubes best games. Plus being a fan of both Nintendo and Sonic there couldn't have been a better 3rd party character included. One thing I'm still really looking forward to is the music. I've heard most of the Zelda stuff, but there are a load of tracks still to be heard.
