For my birthday my buddy reserved me Red Faction 2, and finally release date comes, and he goes to Software ETC. (where he preordered) to pick it up, they told him they didnt get any cube versions in, but had the xbox version, he said no thanks give me back my $10... So we went to GameStop together to get it, and they say they don't get those types of titles anymore because of lack of interest... the numbers say they dont sell well on gamecube. Well i'm thinking how the hell are they gonna sell if you dont even carry them??? I mean finally really good games that were system sellers for other consoles are coming out and stores arent even going to carry the gamecube version... So anyways instead of RF2 I got Def Jam Vendetta, and reserved Splinter Cell, he said he could guarantee me a copy if i preordered it but couldnt guarantee any extras would come in to shelf. So I picked up Splinter Cell the other day and sure enough they only had enough games to meet preorder demand. It just makes me sick to see HUGE games such as these not get shelf space, whil disney and nickelodeon games fill the racks...Does Anyone understand this?
