| OdinHades said: Can someone explain me, why anyone would pre-order those games? I mean, is anyone expecting that there will be shortages or something? Or better yet, can someone tell me why in the world anyone on this planet would pre-order digital games? Seriously, I don't get it. You walk into a store one day before release and you see a shitload of copies from the game you want. Why pre-order? Why on earth is there even an option for games? Are people pre-ordering movies, too? Little bit off-topic, sorry, but it just blows my mind. |
The only reason I pre-order things is because I sometimes don't pay attention to release dates. I just am browing on Amazon and see something I like and pre-order it. Then I don't have to think about it again and it shows up on my doorstep on release day or close to. Heck I've had a book preordered for like a year now, I do that mostly with books cause they are like $10 and easy to forget or miss their releases. Not exactly advertised.
Rarely pre-order games, for the reason as you stated. How often is a game out of stock? ONly happens super rare and usually when dealing with something on Nintendo console, such as Xenoblade, One Piece Unlimited Adventure, DBZ tenkaichi 3, ect. It's amazing how many stores I had to go to when they were out to even find an employee who had heard of those games, let alone had it.
