Yeah, see this is exactly what I mean. A lot of people arent going to brave out the mob of people around the one guy working the video game area and ask for it. They'll assume its sold out, and not buy it and get the #2 game on the wishlist. This is dangerous, especially for games like Mushroom Men, which need the exposure. Of course, its hard to put out EVERY game for any console on the shelves, but when I see some BS game on the shelf where a good title should be, it aggrivates me as both a gamer and a member of the game industry.
