Extra expense of joy cons? You just sent them to Nintendo and they repair them for free. I’ve had to send them a couple of times. It’s not a big deal.

Eh, not exactly. It will be announced by March 2025.

4ish months is not that long though. For instance at Costco you have to let your membership lapse for 18 months before you’d be considered ‘new’ again.

The bundle deal is it. Golden Week is just about over - it ends on Sunday.

I used trade credit so canceling would throw it into limbo somewhere I think. But if it never gets marked as picked up I’m pretty sure I’ll get a GC in the mail. So we’ll just let it play out.

Don’t know if it’s all over, but the GameStops around me are being more strict about pickups. Now they want you to show the pickup email, your ID and then sign that you picked it up. …but even with all that, the dude did not mark the copy of Jedi Survivor as picked up in their system on Tuesday...

Funny you bring up their financials. I wondered what kind of CFO would be cool with whatever the fuck they are doing over there. Their CFO was previously just a business analyst II there. And no MBA or CPA. So yeah, that’s the kind of guy that would be ok with whatever their financial mess...

I can’t believe anyone over there thought a CD-R was fine. In my day only bootlegs were on CD-Rs.

Shit, all of my burned CDs from 25+ work fine and these are copies I burned to use in my car CD players. They have scratches and have been in hot cars. So not ideal storage by a long shot.

Sadly, no it is not.

You know they were expecting the vast majority of people not to open the boxes. That’s why they thought they could get away with it.

Partner sites just don’t get them discounted. VGP had P3P for sale, but they sold out of their copies. They will probably get more copies eventually.

Ouch, if Nintendo Life gave it a 5/10 then it not good. I mean they gave Everybody 1-2 Switch a 6/10 and that was a turd.

YMMV, I don’t see it in my account. Not that I’d want a Red Bull. I get caffeine shakes if I drink more than a cup of coffee.

Lol, like the employees know what bonuses are going on. They are always surprised. Except for one guy my store now has a revolving door of employees.
