*RayeRaye's Corner* 

I’ve slapped my wrists due to the lack of blogging! But what can I say it’s been a whirlwind couple of months for me – I’ve moved house, been on holiday and working on cosplay!

Events - This weekend is the big MCM Comic Con (aka MCM Expo for long term attendees like me) – after uncertainties whether I would be going at all this year I will now be there on Sunday. On the local side we have our AniMedia East Beach meet in Lowestoft in June  and BBC Radio Voices is working with me for doing some videos on Manga in Norwich which is very exciting!

Cosplay - In true ‘expo cosplay style’ I am still working on my cosplay for the event with no guarantee it will be done. I hope to finish my Aurora cosplay from the beautiful Child of Light game that came out recently.

Gaming – Wii U – So I have recently acquired a Wii U – which I love to pieces! This console needs more support and it is my hope that with Mario Kart 8 coming out next week (pre-ordered!) and some decent other titles in the summer – that sales will pick up – because Nintendo needs us. Titles I have are – Super Mario Bros. U and New Super Luigi U, The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD, Super Mario 3D World, Sports Connection and Just Dance 2014. I also just picked up Rayman Legends and DuckTales Got to love a bit of old skool gaming – the re-mastered DuckTales is stunning to look at and to play! Not played on my 3DS much but when I do it tends to be Animal Crossing!

Gaming - PS3 - In other gaming news I have been playing Child of Light (which is available as a download game also on the Wii U) which I got on the PS3 as it came with a collectors edition. To put the game into full words will require a review on my part, so watch this space, but in a nutshell – it is stunning, beautifully fairytale like, the rhyming conversations leave you smiling – battle system and dual analogy use will be tricky for some, but in time you get used to it – but my top tip is ‘exploration’ fly everywhere and make it worthwhile as its been reported the game is only 10 hours long with a fast ending.

Other fangirling – TV - I’ve been hooked on the Originals which season 1 is about to come to its climax, luckily the USA has started airing season 2 which is good news! I need to catch up on the Vampire Diaries and also start watching Game of Thrones. Oh and even though it’s warm I still want Frozen on DVD….

Til next time! *Goes off and sings DuckTales theme tune*
