This is a joke right?

I still don't see what you are trying to achieve with these "tactics". Nintendo doesn't need money. They need popularity. And not with retailers but with consumers. Giving them money only leads them to get even more complacent. Why would they try to court consumers then?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

lol. not only did you spend time doing this which will be insignificant for nintendo and spider-man, but you spend 5 dollars per pre-order doing it?

But... why?



If you're interested in Nintendo content and understand german, maybe you want to take a look at my youtube channel! :)

Why don't you just give out free eshop credits.

Today I pre-ordered Spiderman 2 on Wii U multiple times from several Gamestops. I will not be picking them up. But hey! At least they will order these extra copies and give the game more shipments!

If we all do this then Wii U games will have a nice boost. I just hope Gamestop gives my pre-order money back eventually. I only paid 5 dollars per order.

Eventually, I will buy the actual game. But I must get Child of Light, then Hobbit, then Spiderman 2.

Will anyone join me? Does my or will my fantasy plan actually work?


That's hilarious. Step 2 in full swing!

I should have went to Walmart as well. Teach them a lesson for doing wrong by Nintendo. Always ordering one or two copies of games, or just never re-ordering Wii U's. Damn them! But I work there, so that would not work.... Gamestop requires you to pay 5 dollars per order.


While I dont believe your devious fantasy plan will work out, I have to give it to you for your commitment to nintendo.

Wait what? this is step 2? What was step 1?

spurge, This is not the way you should work. You will achieve nothing. Qant to save nitnendo? so go work to then, that is the only way. Do like Zyro and make your own nitnendo channel, or after some of their jobs positions, or make a game so good that people will buy a console just for and make exclusive for nintendo. What you are doing is making gamestop believe: so, doesn't matter if the pre-order is high, people will not pick it up. You cant game the system.

Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
