i hate it when that happens! i end up buying some other game instead cuz i don't want to go home empty handed :(

btw, i'd recomend NMH, DeBlob and Muramasa for 3rd party. and as for first party, pick anything with mario in it ;)

What's NMH?

No More Heroes

I'm buying a Wii for my family this Christmas, and they have their buy 2 get one free sale. The problem is I haven't found a store that actually has it in stock even though it says its in stock online.


Plan on getting NSMB Wii, Dead Space Extraction... and still deciding on the third if you have any suggestions...

which bestbuy stores have you been checking?

I just did a quick on store RSS check. ALL bestbuy store has it. Many Toronto store has more than 40 copies

 

 

Nice try though

That sounds like you think he is a big Nintendo fan who tries to make it look like NSMB Wii is selling beyond amazing.

no, merely stating the truth after looking at the RSS screen. I didn't see any bestbuy store without NSMBWii. (not including BBM stores, of course)

It's not a family game, but I would recommend Metroid Prime Trilogy. 3 amazing games for the price of 1.

Yes, or else i wouldn't have access to internal stock count such as RSS.

And the incentive for lying about a game not being on the shelves is? I'd tend to trust them having been there over the notoriously unreliable computerized stock systems. The guy doesn't even own a Wii himself, so I see no reason why he would try and make NSMB Wii look like it is in more demand than it is.

 

Just to add I worked a BB store #007 almost 10 years ago now and the stock listed vs. what we actually had was quite often different. I would always check the shelves before I told someone to make the trip.

well, I wouldn't want to judge what kind of software tracking system they had 10 years ago.... but I would like to think it has improved upon as of late.

 

we aren't talking about a 3 dollars cable showing 1 in stock but couldn't be found. we are talking about 60 dollars games and minimal 20 per store

I don't know which city you're in, but at the EB Games at the Eaton Centre in Toronto, they had tons of copies this morning when I was there picking up a few Christmas presents.

Excellent work, thanks for exposing the fanboy/troll.
