>>
>>26199856
only for false reality humans
>>
it is if you don't have a car, can't afford wasting money to get a cab to go to a place that'll give you something for free, or if you're disabled.

Or if you live in the middle of fucking nowhere.
>>
For a good 90% of people on here, it's more of a "not wanting to be seen in public displaying an interest in pokemon" sort of thing

And living in a very rural area where there's more cows than people. Not that it's a concern for me since there's one next to Wal-Mart but it is for people stuck in the next fee towns over.
>>
>>26199912
This. I understand and sympathize with people that are disabled or don't have a car or live in the NA region but don't have GameStops begging for codes. It's the fags acting like it'd be the death of them to let a GameStop employee know they might be interested in pokemon. They're working at goddamned GameStop, they have no space to judge anyone else anyway.

It's a pretty long drive from Mexico

Yes, it's hard to fly to a fucking Gamestop.
>>
>>26199856

Is it that hard to put the piece of shit online to download instead of printing out tons of paper codes that are still limited and often disappear before half the people who want them can even get them because some wankers got a whole lot and put them on eBay to make a killing because shitheads buy them because they couldn't get them in-store because some asshats bought them to put them all on eBay because...

Yeah, fuck you OP. Buy a rope.
>>
>>26199856
yes :'(
>>
>>26203717
Ask them and they'll print you a new one.
>>
>>26203724

I've never heard of that happening and I know for sure that EB Games over here doesn't do that (which, for you uninformed fucks, is owned by GameStop so they're essentially one-in-the-same).

That still doesn't answer why they can't just put it online where it's way more convenient for literally everyone. You have to connect to the internet when using a shitty serial code anyway, and it's all free, so what the fuck is the point in making it limited? It's not as if these Pokemon are even worth using competitively. They're just for collecting.
>>
>>26199856

No, It's not like I live in a resort town where any semblance of a franchise stores besides some really old ones from the 50's are about....

Nearest Game stop is 3 hours away by car 2 towns over.
>>
For people that dosn´t have a GameStop in their country is pretty sad
>>
I don't give a fuck, I got the Darkrai event from Target in 2008. One from Newmoon Island in 2009 and another from a WiFi event in 2012.

I got sick of event collecting years ago unless it's a new Pokemon.

Also I could just save edit the wonder card in and it would be the same.
>>
>>26200142
Once I get my Darkrai I will be!
>>
>>26199856
I live within walking distance of one so it's pretty convenient.
>>
I get motion sickness so I dunno how to drive.
>>
All legendaries from mystery gift should arrive at level 50

Not sure why this lv 100 meme is still sticking
>>
>>26199856
It's just retarded having to go out of my way to get a fucking card instead of just gettin it over Wi-Fi. There's nothing I even want to buy at GameStop right now.
>>26204381
Kids don't have time to raise Pokémon to Level 100. They'll go back to their smartphones otherwise, at least that's what Game Freak thinks.
>>
Most are underage, what did you expect?
>>
>>26199912

Who cares ?
>>
>>26199856
Try to ride from poland to gamestop
>>
>>26199912
>thinking people give a shit
Everyone who saw you will forget that you exist literally 5 minutes after they see you
>>
>>26199856
No, but its a wasted trip if all the assholes on here grab all the codes before anyone can even get one for themselves and the store tells me they're all out.
>>
>>26199886
I can understand not having a car if you live in the city, and if you don't have one then take a cab. I don't think my town has a public transportation, but continuing talking about this will just "get into get a job and don't be a NEET" talk.
of course everyone on here is disabled, we are talking about pokemon

but yeah im guessing its >>26199912


all assuming people actually live in places where there are gamestops
>>
>>26199856
It's a combination of not wanting to drive a bunch out of my way to get a card to play on a pair of substandard games. I'm in grad school and I have finals coming up, why would I drive 20 minutes to gamestop to get a legendary that predicates me opening back up ORAS?
>>
I would require a plane ticket before driving to the closest one, so yeah.
>>
>>26203750
>That still doesn't answer why they can't just put it online where it's way more convenient for literally everyone
Gamestop has some contract with them for selling the plushies and t-shirts, and part of it is that they get to distribute some of the most popular ones, like Mew and Arceus.
"Oh, while I'm here getting the free pokemon, I might as well pick up a game!"
>>
>>26199856
Shills took em all

Pls kill me it's my favorite legendary
>>
>>26199856
Can you download it more than once? I have an extra card a GS employee gave me.
>>
>>26199912
Do you REALLY think the people that work at your Local Gamestop care?

I remember a couple years ago I spent ages thinking about buying a Hatsune Miku game from them, finally decided too and the guy was disappointed because it was the last one left and he wanted one and he looked like a total normie. They are generally gamers too, you know.
>>
>>26209510
this. people are impulsive fucks, just getting them in the store will get you sales.
>>
>>26210575
Before I knew it we were talking about Pokemon Sun and Moon then I bought a Vita

FUCKING GAMESTOP
>>
the nearest gamestop to me is over an hour away
>>
I have unlimited cloned copies of this Darkrai distribution and all other distributions of 2016. I am always in wi-fi general /wfg/

Just check the catalog and ask there if you miss one
>>
Why don't you code-begging faggots just hack your 3DS? You don't even have to go all the way to A9LH but you can get your Darkrai easily with save editing.
>b-buh muh legit Darkrai

This giveaway is literally the same piece of data being distributed to everyone.

I used to live in a shithole that was 2 hours from a Gamestop. It definitely wasn't worth driving that long unless I had a whole day trip planned.

Only fucking children do that. Oh wait...

>>26211827

Amen to that.
>>
>>26209510

So we should criticise people who don't like this bullshit system? Besides, Nintendo never had to offer digital giveaways to GameStop, and over here, TWO stores usually have them, not just EB Games, so it's a moot point for my country.
>>
it is when I can just inject the same shit into my game
