Title: Not to start a rumor, but..
Post by: UncleBob on September 18, 2006, 05:21:44 PM: Okay, I don't want to start unfounded rumors, but I've heard a rumor concering a particular national retailer, a particular new video game system, a particular longly-awaited game and a particular shopping holiday coming up.

I'll let you guys know if I hear anything else, but all I'm going to say is don't pre-order somewhere if you can't cancel it and get your deposit back.

Post by: ShyGuy on September 18, 2006, 05:44:57 PM: Well let's see hear, UncleBob works at WalMart, The Wii is coming out, and Zelda is long awaited. Perhaps a Black Friday sale that will sell out in seconds?

Post by: Ceric on September 18, 2006, 05:52:19 PM: Walmart doing something like that. Even better yet giving employees the heads up... I seriously doubt it.

Post by: ShyGuy on September 19, 2006, 07:08:13 AM: As someone who has worked Mass Merchandis Retail in the past, I know that upcoming sales flyers sometimes get squirreled out of the manager's office. I could tell you stories about Furbies, but I won't.

Too early. Then they'd have to delay Metroid AGAIN?!?!? ... or maybe that'd be a good thing if they can make Metroid not suck online...

Post by: stevey on September 19, 2006, 11:47:37 AM: Was Mario Galaxy playable at the reggieton? I think metriod will be out before mario will be....

Title: RE: Not to start a rumor, but..
Post by: Pale on September 19, 2006, 12:00:20 PM: Yeah, mario was playable.
Title: RE: Not to start a rumor, but..
Post by: King of Twitch on September 19, 2006, 12:02:48 PM: A Zelda-colored wii would be cool, I was thinking it would be neat if they had the power/reset/eject buttons in the shape of the 3 spiritual stones on a gold wii, or maybe painted like a treasure chest.

No one cares about online Metroid.
