surprised he didnt include the wiiu theres an infamous picture of that lady scalping like 20 WiiUs there are stores that never sold out of initial wiiU stock
All of those examples warmed me like the summer sun. Fuck scalpers.
I've got ahold of one of those snes minis, absolutely love playing donkey kong with my older sis again. REALLY takes me back. If I wasn't able to get one I would have been pretty bummed out.

Flight Simulator 2004 had a steel book and came out before Halo 2. Just tossing that out there

This shit makes me glad my local Best Buy was on-point with the SNES Classic on launch day. You had to go to customer support and ask the person at the desk on top of a 1 per customer limit. When I got there someone was busted trying to get a second. It was quite the contrast since the Target right next door sold out pretty much right when the store opened while I arrived early afternoon and only saw 1 other person getting one.
Guess the Snes mini bit only applies to the USA, I've only ever seen a single one on sale over here (apart from a girl taking a pic of his boyfriend with their preorder) and it was a second-hand shop selling it at the normal price, it doesn't seem to exist anywhere else

Don't stores have return policies so they can just return them?
Whoever started that Hannah Montana rumor was a genius
I mean the SNES is still going for like, 150+ on Ebay so I don't know if I would consider that screwed at all.

They told us some smug asshole (not exact words obviously) came to the store and said "I want them all" thinking he would get them all being first in line, and they told him he could only get one. He took the one but was furious :v: That made me smile hearing about it. Scalpers suck! [QUOTE=Sir_takeslot;52760220]Quick.

I actually didn't know about launch PS2's being so bad. Mine was a Christmas gift on the year it launched so I guess I was just lucky?
Why joking about Gundam meets Dark Souls and not go into detail about it? Steel Battalion was actually made by the Dark Souls developers.

But unlike people thought with the NES mini, at least that means you can get one eventually with patience.
God his voice is annoying. At least the content is good.
I like where he was talking about snes mini prices and while quoting prices switches from USD to AUD but only referencing them both as "dollars" 1k AUD != 1k USD (Unless you're valve then who gives a fuck right ?!?!)
