Hehe, the renter around the corner has a small selection of GC games, but yesterday like 90% of them were rented out. I'm hoping for a larger selection soon (think I'll rent Wario Land when it's back). Cube uptake must have been huge here. Empty GC shelves, crowded corners...

I wanted to rent True Crime from my local blockbuster, but they didnt have any copies left. I asked how many copies they had and they only had 2! This is strange because the PS2-biased people at blockbuster think that true crime is the least "kiddy" game on GC so they should have more copies. I just wanted to try it out.

The problem I find with most stores or rental places that have crappy Cube selections is that they have ALWAYS had a bad selection from the very beginning.


That is dead on.  The fact that rental chains and EBs of the world, never had a selection to begin with gives them no template to say GC doesn't sell/rent.  The blockbuster down the street said back when GC launched, 'we arent going to carry it because Nintendo might go out of business'.  Ridiculous.

I should burn those stores with the fires of Mordor.

And smack them with the stick of the white wizard.  Or is it the other way around?
