I just now spent 20 mins trying to buy MLB 14 for PS4 from some broad with ADHD who could not only remember what I had ask for 13 times but whose manager just sat there and laughed while she was struggling instead of helping her because he was too autistic to pick up on the fact my rage was boiling over for being made to wait that long for a nine dollar game.

I'm getting the collector's edition. Honestly, i've had my eye on it since 2009 and I like to collect Wii games. This is my most hyped Holiday game, Fallout or Metal Gear need not apply.

That Wii U disc is getting sold probably though, if it's really as bad as I heard.

>Decide to just mind my own business and continue browsing, but overhear their conversation
>Woman is trying to get her son a New 3DS, but without Wi-fi.
>Apparently the kid has been majorly cyber bullied, and she refuses to buy a 3DS if it has internet connections, she wants one that has no acess to the internet period.
>Poor guy at the register trying to explain parental controls to her, and that you can lock a 3DS settings, but it needs internet to conenct and update.
>"Well what if I don't want that? Do you not understand? my son has been horribly trolled and cyber bullied, I do NOT want him to have internet acess, so I need you to lock it for me."
>"I can't do that ma'm"
>"Why not?"
>"Because, it just doesnt work that way, I can't lock a console from interent acess, you just need to not physically connect it."
>Poor guy is literally under stress, and is actually a friend, so I chime in.
>"You basically need to jsut make sure your son can't access the internet, that can be done using parental controls, and locking your router."
>She turns to me and then starts asking me questions, I try to be as informative as I can.
>friend waves to me a "thank you" and helps other customers in line

Not him but Rodea is one of those special cases, Pre-ordering gets you a Wii copy as well as the Wii-U one. You'd be dumb not to, it's essentially free money, keep the copy you want, and either sell the Wii-U version for $30, or hawk the Wii version as a collectors item to collectorfags for $50
>>
>>315554071
For me it's more of a curiosity, since that game's history is so fucking weird and nobody really knows just what the fuck it is.

Like the fact that the Wii version got finished and printed and was evidently pretty good before it got canceled is more than enough to get me interested in it. It's just such a strange thing.

I get the impression most of the employees at my gamestop don't even play video games, so it wouldn't surprise me. I've gotten asked to preorder your average dudebro games while buying underage pantsu simulator for the Vita.

There's only one employee there I actually get the impression plays games because he gives out pretty consistent recommendations for people depending on what they're buying.

Honestly, I have my own set of issues and they're mostly bullshit. I just miss having people I can trust with shit in my life.

I've gone drinking with coworkers or whatever, but it's not like having friends was. It feels forced or whatever, and if I wasn't trying to make it good in my job, I'd probably never hang out with these people.

That's how a lot of shit feels now, and like I said, I know my problems are mostly bullshit so trying to chat about it in email won't really help. I just want a genuine friend IRL I can talk about video games with or some shit.

Thank you for the offer, though.

If I seen this play out I would buy X and run after them, then ask the kid if he wanted to trade. Say what you will but il be damned if Pokemon wasn't a huge thing to me as a child. It's the same feeling a dad would get if you went into the same profession... I-I assume

Looking at a trailer, it kind of reminded me of that. I don't have a Wii U, but I'm guessing the 3DS version isn't that different due to it originally being a Wii game so I might pick it up.

I'm going to the late night release of Blops 3 at my local gamestop.

I've been thinking about sticking my phone in my upper shirt pocket so the camera can actually see/record what's going on.

The bad side to this is that someone would probably notice and then drama would ensue.

Should i bother?

The latter. Also you bought something with tits on the cover. Normalfags won't react to that. It's basically standard at this point.

I remember going into my local comics and games store complete with a Spiderman on its titleboard. The place wasn't as magical as I remembered as a kid, but the cool table for Warhammer was still cool. What really got me was the smell of body odor, though. I don't know if that was a recent development or if I just never noticed it as a kid. Also, there were genuine autistic people at the counter talking to the clerk, who was apparently into guntalk. It was an interesting, if not a little disappointing, walk down memory lane.
