lol kids are stupid.

As a 33yr old dad who has also spent the last ten years raising siblings from 12 on up. I can honestly say teens are ignorant sons of bitches and I feel sorry for mom when I was a teen.

Is it really so difficult to actually read the damn package?! seriously?! I'm sure it clearly stated what it was for, but you know damn well you just looked at the price and saw DS. lol.

Sorry to rip on ya when obviously your day isn't too fun already, but jesus man how much frustration could be solved if any teenager could actually be a little more patient and read.

As a kid I didn't have a lot of money to waste on stuff so I always made sure to read the packaging carefully.  One day I went to Zellers and saw one of my favourite games for the SNES on sale for 30$ I instantly purchased it and brought it home to play. Sadly the game that the box showed was different then what was actually inside it.  The box showed both english and french writing for the game.  In Canada that's pretty common so I thought nothing of it.  When I put my new copy of The Legend of Zelda a Link to the Past in my SNES.....  I was a little more then disapointed.  I got the french version of the game instead of the english one.  As to why a zellers in Hamilton Ontario had a French copy of the game I will never know.  I tried my best to try and figure my way through the game over the course of a week but couldn't quite enjoy the game the same with the french text.  From what I could read in French, it looked like a really sloppy translation.  Some things and places had slightly different names.  So I sadly had to return the "cheap" game and get my money back.  I wish they had an English version but all they had was a shelf full of french games.

That sucked.  Sadly the DS multi iteration changes have caused a nightmare for people looking for the right part.  I even have a hard time finding the right thing I want at times because the damn packaging never gives the right details.  Take Guitar Hero for the DS...  How many people bought that game thinking it would work with the original DS?
