I remember when I was a kid, the videogame section was IN the toy section. Go down the aisle past SNES, PS, Saturn, and N64 and you find board games and action figures. It's only more recently that they found acceptance in electronics instead.

haha, that brings back memories. i used to get my nes/genesis games in toysrus and i remember the video games were right across the aisle from board games in glass cases and you had to get those tickets and bring them to the register to get a game, then you had to bring the ticket with reciept to a window where a guy would sit and get the games from shelves behind him. haha, it was always magic to me when i would peek in that window and see all those games just sitting there.

My Toys'r'Us still does that with the tickets.

no way, where is your toysrus? i would love to see those tickets again

Minnesota...it is slightly different than you explained, because you don't go with the guy to go get the game, you just sit at the cash register, but the whole ticket idea is still used.
