| turtuls said: So aperently after my grandparents picked up my copy of Xenoblade Chronicles for me (since I'm away a college), Gamestop sent me an email saying that I had a bunch of loyalty points and that I should spend them. After going through a bunch of useless pages of coupons and crap memorabilia I found one surprising reward a Pushmo download. They also had one for Super Mario 2 but I was so glad that I had enough of these stupid points to get Pushmo. I immediately redeemed it thinking that they would just give me a code for the game similar to how I got codes from Club Nintendo or Amazon. How dead wrong I was. It turns out that they don't give you a code but it is instead a fucking coupon to get the code. Not only that, but the coupon expired by the end of the month. I never been to gamestop here and never knew why until now. The closest one to me is in the next town and it takes 2 buses and over an hour just to get there. I came to the conclusion that I should just redeem this damn coupon before it expires and get it over with.
Once arriving to the store I was immediatly serviced when the store was busy(the second time I think this has ever happened.) Gave the employee the coupon and it took him a while for it to register in the computer but its not that big a deal. I asked him if they had any extra artbooks for Xenoblade since my grandparents didn't recieve it buy they told me that they never got any (sucks again but I'm not pissed.) Got a receipt that had the code on it and he gave me the employee shtick of preordering and crap. Got back on the busses and downloaded the game. I am happy I have this game now, I just beat murals, and I am now interested to look for games on the eshop. Though going through this occurrence of only getting a coupon to go to the store to get a download code instead of just getting the code from them online directly is just fucking stupid. P.S. and of course I bought i used game: Geometry Wars Galaxies for $4.50 P.P.S. I saw and played a Vita for the first time. Before: mildly interested in buying. After: Make it smaller,fix the button placement, fix those things they call analog nubs, might be interesed when more games are released P.P.P.S. I got 3 streetpasses :) |
no thanks, stick with your 3ds. ALthough making it thinner it a good option.
