In Chicago, picked up The Simpsons Game for 12.48 while browsing for Speed Racer toys. They also had College Hoops 2k8 for the same price.

You can keep your challenge between you and your friends if you want. That way, you know you're not competing against total gamerscore whores. And there's still prizes left. Just make sure when you start a challenge, you pick "Rewards Challenge." You'll get the prize menu from there.

Yep, however most of the prizes have set timeframes, meaning you'll have to pick and choose what you're wanting to win.

You can only be in one challenge at a time, so no, you can't all be in 5 separate challenges. However, if you want to run 5 challenges for 5 different prizes and give someone the "opportunity" to win, go nuts.

Any Chicago CAGers out there looking to organize something for launch? With one million units available at launch, I'm thinking it'll be pretty easy to pick up a unit on Sunday. Plus, is the plurall for Wii just "Wii" or "Wiis?"

Curiously, what were the ship numbers for the Nintendo DS? IMO, pre-orders for the Wii seem like a hassle. Plus, with Nintendo shipping 4 million of these things before Christmas, with the majority most likely happening on launch day, a pre-order may not be neccessary. In addition, the...

Just ordered mine at Wal-Mart. No problems.

Ordered the 12 month Live kit, received it 3 days later in perfect, as-listed shape. Liked this deal so much, went back and dropped $92 for that remote. Hooray for spending!

Excellent deal, seeing as I blew through my initial 1600 points right quick. Thanks, OP.
