Huh, I should really pick up ANB sometime then! The more I read about it, the more interested I get. :'DD

And I'm deeefinitely looking forward to playing AP once it gets here. The reason I never got it was just because it had the same characters as ToT/I figured I wasn't missing much, but it looks a lot more polished. Plus, it's been years since ToT came out and that cast of characters is my overall favourite of the HM games, so...:'DD

The loading time sounds like it's going to drive me batty just from your description though. OTL I can be impatient enough as is.
