Nintendo will live 5eva

Haters gonna hate on da king

But seriously nintendo has an absolutely epic first party lineup. Its the only reason people even buy their consoles tbh, because their 3rd party support is pretty bad (apparently wii u is changing that but im not sure)

Hm I just thought that Nintendo always had a strong appeal because it was marketed towards younger people/casuals etc.

I'm sure parents would rather a kid playing on the Wii (and getting fit and active, yay) rather than them playing some violent shooter/assassin game.

Wii for casuals?

Monster hunter tri, donkey kong country returns and the metroid prime trilogy would make the average "hardcore" gamer cry

Because hardcore is a really stupid label and only wannabe12 year olds who play cod actually use it

you guys realise that most stores would be at very limited or no stock. even if there is a chance there is some in stock, the employees will probably get them first. i've also heard that some stores would delay this sale until the 11th due to the massive hype but who knows. feels too good to be true haha

That's a good point.

If anyone's looking to buy anything on Monday, then check if that item is actually in-stock by checking on DSE's website.

Was talking about this during school. I got state swimming carnival some I might just pop out and run to the nearest Dick Smith to get a DSi and Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver :D. My only concern is that it's really close to April fool's day.

Check if there's stock before doing that.

It would be a terrible screwup on their part if it was an April fools day joke. So it isn't.

Does anyone know when online sale starts?

Do you think online buying will work? Because I think everyone's just gonna go in store and take the games.
8am monday

I think that the site might crash, cos everyone will be trying to visit it.

As for buying online, I'm sure they have stock at a warehouse or something? And that's where the online orders would be coming from. Otherwise, it'd be really hard to keep track of how many they have left of each item.
