I did it, and it was oh so wrong.

..but it made a few people happy.
So I opened at gamestop this morning, and decided, fuck it, and threw in a copy of smash bros. into our interactive kiosk.
It made quite a few people excited and got a few others to pre-order. We actually exceeded pre-orders vs copies on hand by over 50, so hopefully not everyone shows up tonight or we're screwed, and it's well over 200!!!
So yea, everyone was playing, it was good times. Then my manager came in and turned it off, and asked me wtf I was doing. I just loled.
the end.

What a good sport. That would've been a good opportunity to tell your manager off and be like,

"No, wtf are YOU doing? How are you going to deny these people the right to play some Super Smash? How dare you sir. How dare you. I spit on your pathetic life and your goal to take it out on others by not allowing them to play. For shame sir, for shame."

...Where am I?

Did you mention the 200 preorders you caused to happen? Because I hear Gamespot's absolutely fucking bonkers over preorders.

Haha, well I didn't get 200 during that time period, but about 6, bringing us to 200 total.
Ya I told my manager oh well, if it got back to my DM somehow. I mean what's the big deal, I didn't sell it, so I didn't break street date. Who cares I got off tonight so I don't have to work at midnight, I'm going to drink a lot of booze instead.

I even let about 5 kids sign up early for the tournament that we weren't supposed to take sign ups for til 10 pm. I mean, they were waiting outside before I even got there, how the fuck could I deny them and their nerdy obsession?
