WALL-E was my favorite movie of 2008, well above TDK and a bunch of other movies people loved. I'm such a rank sentimentalist.

-Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales (my sister surprised me with it)
-Picross DS
-Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon (it finally arrived since May, when my order was made)
-Kirby: Power Paintbrush (it's the european version of Canvas Curse)
-Tony Hawk's American Sk8land (okay, I got these latter two from myself, but I made a very good trade, as they cost only 15 each, and I wanted both of them, since the second I set my eyes on their videos)
I'm still waiting for Hotel Dusk and Lost magic to arrive though. Hope they'll get here safely.
And I got Prism: Light the way for my father (he loves it, so thanks for the tip DSFanboy) and Brain Benders for my mother.
I found both of them in a bargain bin, where everything was (unopened and) around $10, and not incidentally, Soul Bubbles and Puzzle Quest were in it also(of course I grabbed one of them also). Sadly this means that I'll have less DS-time for myself, but oh well... it worths it. They have so big smiles on their faces while playing.
It looks like I ranted too much, so I won't be listing the various other things I got (mostly sci-fi books). Oh, I almost forgot: I received a Cyclo DS(with an Ezflash), but I don't have a memory card for it yet.

Things from all across the board! Sim City DS, Disgaea DS, Okami Wii, House of the Dead 2&3 Return, Persona 4 (PS2), and a PSP with Tag Force 2 and Castlevania X Chronicles.
All in all, a good, well-balanced haul.

DS related stuff, I got Chrono Trigger DS and TWEWY. Also got a Mother 3 cellphone strap with the 6 playable characters.
Otherwise I got 3 months XBL time and a cellphone headset.
Best part is, I don't even celebrate Christmas, I celebrated winter solstice in general a few days ago. I just reap the benefits from my family.

chrono trigger is really going around this year. My lovely partner in crime gifted that to me as well. She also gave me the nerf-n-strike bundle which, much to my surprise, came with a free nerf gun (dubbed the maverick).
"santa" brought some wii points and the game "heavenly creatures."
She received a custom made ds phat case from etsy and Iron Chef, extreme cuisine (which is actually pretty fun, so far). The nerf-n-strike control is going to be a lot of fun with House of the Dead: Overkill, and the nerf game ain't all that bad either.

I got some money so I can pay my rent and not be homeless in January.
I wish I had gotten a DS game. But not being homeless is really nice.

I got a present I already knew about (was with my dad when he purchased it) and have already transferred a few digital amazon unbox purchases to it.
Tomorrow I may be buying Wall-E 3 Disk Blu Ray w/ Digital copy.
The DS games I would have wanted aren't available at Target or Best Buy.

*puts on best Niko from GTA IV accent*
In my country the presents are there for the taking, I got lots of gifts, four DS games (Professor Layton, Cooking Mama 2, Etrian Odyssey, Mario Kart DS) the PS3 I won for free in Sydney Morning Herald competition, Valkyria Chronicles, Everybody's Golf: World Tour, and to top off grabbing Santa by the balls I got my mother the GTA IV game she asked me to buy for her, so she be happy and run over pedestrians to give her joy because she works so hard, but just when you think you have country by the balls, your brother screws you over and hijacks your golf game so he can play GTA IV, and does not give me turn. Then on Boxing Day I try to spend the fifty dollars Grandmother in old country sends me at the Anime shop up road, and I sweat and strain in the hot Australia country sun, where it is summer down here, not winter at Christmas in old country, and the sweat runs down my wrists like blood, and my face is red, but I find Anime shop owner is closed for holidays. I thought I lived Australian Dream, but when Anime shop is closed, when you work so hard to get to the top, you feel like country does not care!

No, but I think someone else may be trying to tell you something. Or they just have a really sick sense of humor. I got my brother a rivet gun and rivets just to see him twitch because he had a new tool and nothing to use it on. This year I got him the WiFi signal meter t-shirt from ThinkGeek. He loves it but his oldest daughter is mortified that she will have to been seen in public with him wearing that shirt.
