Blah Blah Blah - GC Launch Mayhem!

Pre-Ordering vs. Camping

by the NWR Staff - November 18, 2001, 12:07 am EST

At one point Colin & Max were going to camp out for their GameCube. Then, there was a change of plans...

Max:: So first off man, what's up with you pre-ordering your GameCube on Amazon? I though you told me to come up and we'd camp out. Now I'm going to have to camp alone. I'll be the one spooning with a fatman in front of Toys R Us to keep warm…

… Well, maybe not.

Not that I really blame you though for acting when you had the chance. I mean, if I had TEH MONIES I'd be pre-ordering too.

Colin: Well, let me put it like this. A little known secret about me, is that I don't like gamers! After waiting in line for over six hours for my PS2 at launch, I learned I will never camp out with other gamers again!

Max: Haha, you told me you were letting kids cut in line. Meanwhile, somewhere in the world people were getting mugged for systems. But really, was it that bad? I thought you said it was fun?

Colin: Actually I encourage cutting in line. After hearing Gary Gamewanker babble for 3 hours about his hopes and dreams for the new system, I wanted to let someone cut and see a fight! It would have made for some good action!

Max: Oh man, I'm probably doomed to camp with freaks. Well, bigger freaks than me. At least I'll have my GBA and I'll be sure to be bringing my headphones to drown out talkative wankers in line and extra batteries…

Colin: We did manage to start some verbal exchanges, but no actual blows were exchanged.

Camping out with Nintendo freaks might be less fun than you think

Max: Aw. So why don't you tell us all about what you got n' why?

Colin:I preordered the Indigo System Bundle with an extra spice controller. The bundle includes Luigi's Mansion, Star Wars, Madden, and a memory card. I also tossed Monkey Ball on for some good husband/wife game playing action. I don't want Madden, but it was either that or Wave Race, and I gots no love for Wave Race.

Max: Yeah, I know. You've only told me how much you don't want to play Wave Race a bajillion times. And congrats on your marriage BTW... I woulda mentioned it on the site but then I realized you probably didn't want Gary GameWanker emailing you about it.
