I have Brawl preordered... Before that it was SMG and LoZ:PH. Those are the only games I've ever pre-ordered.

I have only pre-ordered The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, just for the bonus game.

I've only preordered one game that i can remember. Mario Strikers Charged... and that's only because i went a day early to get it.

Seemed worth it to pay for it a day ahead of time to make sure i got it.

Usually i'm not so hard up for games that i can't wait a week though.

I pre-order most of the games I get. I really like being able to just walk in and pick up the game. And then I avoid some things. Like games selling out, or when a store only orders enough to fill the pre orders.

Currently I only have Brawl pre paid for

Just Brawl, preordered since...June, when I preordered SMG as well.

I laughed when Gamestop called me in November to tell me Brawl was delayed but I could switch my preorder to SMG...which I already had...



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

Hahhahahah You guys are really pre-ordering???? There is no need to pre-order. When the game is released, just go to the store and buy it. If they (gamestop) run out go to another store.

 ::chuckle::  Or I could just pre-order a game while I'm already in the store for some other reason, and save my self a possible extended drive when it comes out.  More efficent that way.  Not that I'm worried I won't get the game.  (Unless it's Brawl)

^ Ask yourself why there would be a shortage in the first place. Are DVD's that hard to produce?? No, they cost pennies. The biggest first day sales for a videogame was last year with Halo3 and all you had to do was goto Best Buy. They had stands up front right when you entered the building. There is no need to pre-order unless you get someting in return. Like a shirt, or a reduced price, or some kind of special bonus.
