Ocarina of Time was one of those moments where the guys at Electronics Boutique were super awesome to me. I had preordered a copy, so I was entitled to a gold cartridge. They had only received a partial shipment of their gold copies and filled a few preorders and due to a delay, the rest would be in the next day. I said, "Forget it. Just give me a grey one, I want to play it now." They said they couldn't. I calmly complained that the reason I had put my money down over 6 months prior was to guarantee I got the game day 1. The manager whispered something to the sales associate who then went into the back and gave me HIS gold cartridge copy. He said he was working until closing anyway and was opening up tomorrow. He wouldn't get much of a chance to play anyway.
I never really understood when people said about ways Electronics Boutique/EB Games/Gamestop screwed them. They've always been very good to me. I have a bunch of other stories about managers rewarding me for being a repeat customer.
Keep this in mind when reading what I type...
I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.
