Ive never got a game first day. Only systems. I was the first pre-order in town for the wii when it came out so i just showed up like 5 minutes before the store opened. There was like 50 people in line and i think only one other pre-order (the didnt advertise it so not many people knew about them). They only got 5 systems in that shipment so me, the other guy that pre-ordered and 3 people that had been there for like 6 hours got the system. lots of pissed off people.

Also got 2 ps3s the same way at both the EB games in town because, again, nobody knew about the preorders before hand. I sold one online to pay for the other one so i was a happy camper.

 Wow, you've never gotten a game with your system?

 

On topic: Majora's mask.  Zelda was the first series I loved enough to actually pay attention to release dates... it would have been OOT but I didn't yet have a 64 when that was released.

 I might have accidentally gotten some before then, but if i did it was not on purpose. 

Not unless you count Wii Sports. Im a budget gamer so I usually wait until games drop prices or purchase them used. If there is a title I really want I just get my wife or family to grab it for me for a birthday or x-mas gift. Thats when I get the most "new" games. I just cant justify paying $60 for one game when I could spend that same $60 and get anywhere from 6-12 games depending what systems I want the games for.
