    Best Buy video game sale TODAY

    Saw this on Digg... might go down and see what GBA/DS games they have on the cheap. Many are listed as low as $2 bucks. I'll let you all know what I see.

    They didn't have a single game on sale even close to $10 dollars, let alone $2 dollars. Not sure if it was a hoax or if the store I went to was not participating. Best to call and verify before you go in this case.


    By the way, has anyone ever been to a Best Buy right when they open? No offense to mutants or nerds, but I just witnessed a crowd of the nerdiest mutant game nerds in my life! I felt weird because I was on my way to work and I was wearing a suit. Everyone was looking at me like that scene in Forrest Gump where he goes into the Black Panthers party.

    ROFL! Were those people still waiting for a Wii?

    Yeah I told my boss about this and of course we had to go over there and I will second Evo's experience. Although I don't where a suit to work so I had nothing to set me apart.

    I don't usually wear a suit, but I had to today which made it all the more ironic.

    Icky, I don't think they were waiting for a Wii, I think they were there for the same reason I was because the swarm went directly to the XBox games area with a few stragglers in the DS/GBA aisle with me. There were about a dozen of them huddled around the door when they opened. I just sat in my car and laughed and laughed...

    I sat in my car too and the nerds across the parking lot were throwing stuff back and forth through their car windows and using umbrellas as shields. After seeing this I really didn't want to go in.
