I lived near a piggly wiggly in Tennessee for a while. They had a movie that was almost totally about a robbery in that store.

A cheap, southern version of kroger or safeway.

Kroger is nice. Sad that they have none down here. :/

Kroger is just OK but Publix is better. Then you get Harris Teeter. Move up a bit more and you have Whole Foods. Another step up gives you Native Sun. And finally at the top you get The Fresh Market.

I'll grant those last 3 are not budget friendly at all but you get by far the best products.

Heard of Whole Foods but I have never seen one. Don't know if there is one near Orlandoooo....

Also, Publix is better. I like Publix and Super Target the most.

Super Targets are better than Super Wal-Marts but that's because Targets are better than Wal-Marts to begin with.

The Orlando Whole Foods in on 8003 Turkey Lake Road. There is also a store in Winter Garden.

Native Sun seems to be local only.

Altamonte Springs and Aventura already have Fresh Markets with Orlando (5000 Dr. Philips Dr) getting one sometime soon.

Sorry for the tanget, Ryan. Add me to your 3DS damnit.

Re:Amazons pricing - I think Nintendo may just be undercutting the competition on licensing fees this time around.

As a way to attract more indy publishers, and keep major 3rd parties happy, this could be a fantastic first strike before the competition gets under way next year.

edit> this move might also explain Capcoms decisions interms of the 3DS also, regardless of the "marketing commitment".

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
