Monday night I get the call saying my preorder of FF VI would be in on Tuesday and held for the 24 to 48 hours. I go in Wednesday afternoon/early evening to pick it up I get told theres none in the store and to quote "not even enough for preorders came in"
Fine I go check Target and they hade none. But the kicker is when I go in to EB today they do have a copy that had already been gutted but they seemed to have "misplaced" the box and manuels and wanted to sell me that alone or with a ad box, I said "no thank you, I'll wait" The point of this rant is one they did get more then enough copies for preorders and thanks to the gutting policy they lose crap and out right lied to me in the first place about the game being in stock. Bah |

I do have Target but they just haven't gotten it yet, but as for game shops its the only thing close to where I work besides the Target (Downtown Minneapolis) I don't drive and the next closest game shop is another EB otherwise its out to the sub-burbs. EB/Gamestop bought out all the independent games stores here or drive out the rest like they did to a import shop in St Paul.
