SNES console, Mario World, Zelda and Starfox were all first day purchases for me. In the SNES days there was a shop called Boots in my hometown, a big chemists for non-uk folk, that for some reason sold quite a lot of video games. They were also pretty inept and sold games before release days. I remember getting Super Axelay early, but beyond that my memory is too fuzzy.
Since then the only game I have got on release day is SMG, at Game on Oxford St, they had the guy that does the voice of Mario, he seemed quite old and frail to me, may not have many "It's a me, Mario"'s left in him, doing signings and free stuff if you came in a Nintendo themed costume.
