...Are we seriously going to see a Nerf game go gold?

Is that a first?

 

A game that comes with a gun shell that shoots real nerf darts?   How cool is that!  I was seriously considering when I ran accross it in the store.  It's better then the zapper, even if more over priced...  It's going to sell over 1m...

What.

....

....

+1 sales

Behold!

I'm not sure how long it'll keep selling, but over the weekend it seemed (anecdotally) to be the target of many an impulse buy. The local stores didn't seem to move any copies previously: now I can't find these around.

Just passing that on.

 

Brilliant idea on Nerf's part.

I seen them behind glass a few weeks back at toys-r-us.  Non interesting looking sealed behind glass.

However, at walmart the other day they had a large stack of them (at a high traffic major walkway between video game and toy section) that you could just touch and look at the box.  It's far more tempting that way, especially if you never heard about it, and the game has had little press.  Only one reveiw on metacritic so far, and I don't recally anyone mentioning it prior to launch, so no hype build up.

Given the size of the stack, and the placement, expect Walmart to sell a lot of them this holiday season.
