Yeah, Skyward Sword actually picks a great time to come out because November 24th is my birthday, and my job gives me an extra day off for that. ON TOP of this, I already get two days off for Thanksgiving PLUS the weekend. And I'm taking a personal day that following Monday. So I'll have November 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 off. And that means I can squeeze in Skyward Sword until I can't squeeze anymore.

Doesn't stretch my page! I guess it was a little resolution biased, however.

I can't wait to get my copy with the gold controller. One of my most anticipated of the year next to MK7 (although Dark Souls is leading my GOTY so far).

So OTs don't need to have OPs with 40 pages of 'summary' at the beginning? I actually read this one.

This is all just speculation because I don't really know anything about Nintendo shipping methods, but I imagine that most of the people who want it on BF will get a copy. I mean the majority of the people who really want the game aren't going to wait that extra week. I also imagine they will ship a ton of copies knowing they are running this deal. I would tend to think if you got their decently early you should be able to snag one. I wouldn't wait until 7 PM that night, but certainly I don't think you need to camp out.

I would keep an eye out on Amazon because you never know what will show up for daily deals etc on that week.

Pumpkin video + This real actual famous event they keep advertising on Discovery Channel all day is literally called "Punkin' Chunkin'

but i guess if I have to explain the joke etc etc :P

Edit:

There is actually a The World Championship Punkin Chunkin Association (WCPCA). Seriously.

It's a nice clean OP, but not everybody has a 1080p screen (sadly).

edit: I think that space in the last picture can get cropped and then linked to the "full version".

I don't see the need to stretch the page with the footer image... why not delete all the blank space in the left side of the image?

eh it doesn't bother me, when I made it I just intended for a nice bit of art at the very bottom and off to the side but I guess I should have went with something more horizontally-designed than vertically.

A word of caution to anyone considering K-mart
;
Having worked at K-mart during Black Friday and shooting the shit with managers, you should know they are notorious for running advertisements on big ticket items they either do not have or have extremely limited supplies on. Corporate does it anyways just to get people in the door.

If they say "Limited Stock, probably 3 per store", I would take that as "3 per store if you're lucky". If you absolutely need the Bundle pack, do NOT count on K-mart.

I spent an entire Black Friday shift explaining to angry customers that the Awesome Nerf Gun that was priced super low was not only out of stock, but had never even been in stock in the first place. Not a single one the entire time I worked there.
