Is GB micro out today in NA or not?
- Thread starter Sapiens
- Start date
I saw the Famicon version the other day: SHINY! Of course i dont live in the US, but a very tempting proposition that. VERY TEMPTING. Must. Save. For. PSP. Instead.
Since i am semi-OT already, let me go all the way and ask if a Japanese PSP will play games meant for other regions. The PSP is region-free right? What about for UMDs? Region-protected, those?

What is this promotion you speak of? I want in on the EB screwing-over.

probably this?
Trade 5 Games get an extra $5.00 for each game
Trade 4 Games get an extra $4.00 for each game
Trade 3 Games get an extra $3.00 for each game
some titles are excluded from trade in, cannot be combined with any other off or promotion. Valid on PS2/XB/Gamecube/PSP/DS game
would be awesome if you bought cheap games at best buy last week
GB micro is already out.......me and my friend went over to Gamestop to visit my friend girlfriend. I saw the GB micro and i ask if it was out already and i was told yea......damn even though i saw it, held it, and made luv to it at e3, i still can't get over the fact that is so small.......

gamestop only has dummy displays.. its released on the 23rd.. it got pushed back a bit from the 19th ship date to normal retailers (unlike nintendo world store)
also.. notice how theres been ZERO ads that has placed the GBMicro in the spotlight.. i smell flop in the US ... no one even knows it exists.

Why advertise something that isnt completely in stock? Nobody ran it in the weekly ads because of doubt they would get it. I expect front page next week.

Tell that to retailers when PSP came out.. PSP came out on a wends or something and it was in every sunday ad saying 'IN STORES WEDS'
Your theory is utterly stupid.. Why dont you write a letter to best buy and circuit city and tell them to not advertise dvd's coming out tuesdays as new releases.. cause there "not in stock" when they put the ads out.. *cough retard*
Advertising is more than TV ads.
EB has the micro displayed in their September booklets page #1, Futureshop advertised it and there are displays in stores. People certianly know about it.
Micro is not going to replace the SP, it appeals to a more upscale market. Last I checked, the SP is still outselling both the PSP and the DS.

Tuesday isnt 7 days later.
The firm date that stores are sure to recieve it by is the 26th. In other words, thats whn it hits the shoppers.

No the firm date is the 23rd.. Go to gamestops website.. i fkin work at gamestop dumbass. Not everything follows EB games, and retailers like best buy dont get overnight shipping on most games so thats why they get shit so late compared to Gamestop.
