Title: Capcom this is ridiculus.
Post by: Pikkcuber on October 07, 2003, 05:23:20 PM
I thought id share with you an amusing anticdote. I signed up for a viewtiful joe fansite (that was i think ran by capcom)and wrote a little story or something and they said they would send me some viewtiful joe cards and tattoos. So open my package yesterday and cards just fall on the floor. I got them all up onto my bed and i counted 142 cards! and there were 5 different kinds. Im not complaing it was just weird that capcom sent me 142 cards, i mean what am i suppose to do with him. Well im anxiously waiting my viewtiful joe game to arrive and its driving me nuts, any body have it and enjoy it?

VJ is sold out at Capcom's online store by the way. If anyone else hears of mass sell-outs let us know.

What are you to do with 142 cards? Keep them, then sell them years from now on Ebay. RICH GET!

7 Bobbleheads with removable WEAPONS! That really work! As for VJ, when I picked mine up today, it looked like there were quite a few still on the shelves. There was also this kid there and he was like, "VJ for $40?! Do I have $40? Darn it!" At least the li'l kid was interested....in ADULT mode....tee hee.

I can't wait for Viewtiful Joe, but i doubt it'll help Australias condition hehe. A new yoshi story would be cool. I want a card too!

*Also wants a new 2D Yoshi, but without the singing, and lack of levels* *Also wants some pudding*
Oh yeah, pudding a go-go. Oh, by the way, Pikkcuber. What was this VJ site? I'm bored, want to looky. =)

Hey, I LIKED Yoshi's singing -___-
I want a 2d/3d game...Have 2d standard levels, but have 3d bonus levels(think Super Mario Sunshine)

*farts*
I think I will send PIAC a package of poo mixed with lemonade. *drinks up* 'snot that bad! REALLY!
[/badness]
I think I will go kill myself. I just learned that VJ=$40. I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT IT IF I HADN'T BEEN LIVING UNDER A ROCK FOR MONTHS.
*makes angry face*

Post by: Infernal Monkey on October 09, 2003, 07:04:44 PM
Wait... $40... Games are usually like, $50, right? *Hopes that this will result in the game costing $79.95 or something in Ozz-Tralia*
Why do I already have doubts? ;___; And Bill, listening to Yoshi singing was about as fun as Kirby singing on the megaphone thingy in Kirby's Dreamland. *SCCCRREEEECCCCHHHHH-YOW*

I liked that too!
...
Wait, no I didn't but that's not a fair comparison...Yoshi can keep a tune, and they are so cute when they hum
