Nintendo killed my father, and raped my mother!
DynamicSheep \| 12:36 PM on 01.31.2008	13 comments

So all of us Super Smash Bros. fans were all weapy eyed when we heard the announcement that we were going to have to wait a whole month to get our hands on one of our most highly anticipated titles, but we got over it. The leaks help.

My boss passed around a calendar for my pod today and there was a march calendar in there. I flip back to mark down the 9th as Smash Bros. Brawl Day, and I see that it's already got something there. DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME! They're releasing the game on the shortest fucking day of the year! DAMMIT! OUTRAGE! RABBLE RABBLE!

So yeah, we'll only have 23 hours to play Brawl, which is truly retarded.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Ships on the shortest day of the year but it isn't in store until AFTER the shortest day of the year!

Is that better? The eve to Brawl release is SHORTER than other days?

Yep, ships. I can't wait for this game to be out so I don't have to read another word about it.

Dude thats just evil, but then again it is Nintendo who see fit to leave entire half years between US and UK launches. I swear if Hitler was still alive he'd be marketing director for ol' Nintendo.

Hey, Japan JUST got Metroid Prime 3: Corruption a few weeks ago. How much further ahead did the US or UK get this game than JP?

No, I am not talking about Jurassic Park, they get all their games 5 days ahead of everyone!

What a coincidence! Microsoft killed my mother and raped my father! Maybe we should create some kind of support group.

@BlindsideDork & brainderailment:

Gamestop says it'll be available March 9th, so I'm expecting it then. I'll call just to be sure though.

@twister1988:

That was pretty much my reaction when I realized this.
