Posted October 1, 2006 I suggest the Wii launch, at that hidden GAME in the basement of Debenhams that hardly anyone knows about. I'll be there. We should all draw N-E on our foreheads or something, like the number of the beast Chances of a concession store getting a Wii = slim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 1, 2006 Chances of a concession store getting a Wii = slim. True, and that's one of the reasons I have a preorder somewhere else, too. But this place is literally almost completely unknown. I went in the day after the Xbox 360 launch and they still had Premium systems left - they only got six. If they're not doing a midnight launch and other places are, though, sod'em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2006 What do you mean? The chances of a conession store (a small section of a non-Game shop) getting a Wii are slim... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2006 The GAME stores I've seen in department stores before always seem to stock the same things as the regular ones. Most of them are fairly equivalent in size too.... Are we talking about Sheffield's Debenhams? I haven't been in yet, though I pass it most days. Will have a look soon. PS: Sounds like we need a Sheffield N-E Gamecube get-together soon. Edit: Looking at that, we will have to call it Snegget. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2006 I may join one day because I'd like to go see my friend in Sheffield. Just not when her boyfriend does, he's already a tad jealous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2006 Yeah, the one on the Moor. I can't even remember how I found out it was there. I'm up for Snegget at some point soon. Just not this week, as I've got an assignment to finish before the 9th and Uni starts tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
