I really wasn't trying to be a twat about it, it's your money and if you choose to help out someone in need with your $$$ then more power to you. Really. Just saying that struck a bum note with me. There's worse things in the world than going without a portable games system for a few months. Best of luck to the Hernandez family, really. I'll go give a few bucks now just to make myself feel like less of an arsehole. I'll be sending Girl's nDS share to a cause I think is worthier though.
