Who the fuck purchases video games from a actual retail store anymore? I'm not a nigger or a dumb ass spic.

It's much better ordering online.

there was a fat black lady the local target I work at in one of those driving around in circles singing what seemed to be old mariner songs. I hadn't seen someone that happy in weeks. I spent the rest of my shift wondering if it would be better to be her and happy enough to sing in public while being too fat to walk or to be VIDEO GAMES

Probably last black friday. 20 dollars for Splatoon.

I do since it's cheaper than buying it online.

i don't think i've ever waited in a big line for a game, and i buy games from stores a lot.

Don't feel much sympathy for fats who are so averse to physical activity they need a fucking scooter to get around a store. Only really elderly people who have trouble walking should be allowed in those things.

my friend and i called in sick to school for the halo 3 launch day, we got to gamestop around 8am figuring we would be one of the first ones there. there was a line around the block, people at the front of the line had tents and camping charis with big gulps in the cup holders. and i saw a couple of piss jugs too. we were there until 10:45, because gamestop in their infinite wisdom decided to have two cashiers scheduled for that day.
>>
Probably a line of 2 or 3 people.

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

Yeah I remember discs...

How about getting a cheap Steam key and pre-loading it so you can immediately play it on release date?

the time i went to get pokemon x and y, first time i ever saw my local gamestop fully packed. Luckily there were two lines for cards and cash so i went for cash and passed through the whole store.

Maybe 10 minutes because the one other person in line was chatting with the cashier. I don't mind though, as long as it's only one person blabbering in line.

Only that one girl fits. The second guy has a bandage around his leg, and fourth woman looks about 50+ from the hairstyle so I'd err on the side of she needing it.

And the old woman is also fat.

Midnight release of GTAV for the Xbox360. Then I built a gaming pc and never have to wait in another line to buy a game ever again.

Man we have those exact carts at my work, fucking turn radius of it is the best.

Goes pretty fast too.

Coworker and I raced through the store after closing time for shits in giggles.

But, there are like a million different reasons and each fat guy probably has a different one. Genetics plays a huge role according to pretty much every twin study conducted about this, there plenty of illnesses that can cause it, including mental stuff like depression, recently it's been detected that fat people have different kinds of bacteria in the intestines. Also, shit diets.

That one guy in the picture has a bad leg, for instance, so probably can't move a lot. If you look at the shape of the foot, it's not a new thing. That 50+ woman might have gained it after menopause.

>What is the longest line you've waited in to purchase vidya?

In a line that wrapped around the whole front side of a Wal-Mart waiting for the original wii. Us towards the front were there for about 20 hours. Chillest bunch of random people. We pitched in for pizzas, started several games of poker on foldout tables and there several full Mario Kart games going everywhere on DSs. Things got crazy the later as the weather got more cold/rainy and 3x as many people showed up. They were all fucked though since the store didn't have more than 30 units. Grabbed the wii, an extra wiimote and Twilight Princess.
Many lols were had after as the nation panicked from "shortages", and all my friends came over to play mine since the shortages didn't clear up for over a year.

Sorry for the shit picture, this was before smartphones.

Waited for several hours outside my local gamestop in 2008 for Brawl with some friends and to compete in the tournament they had. It was a school night too and I was 11 I think.
