Electronics boutique, they are a video game shop that care more about sales than doing what is good for the customer, such as advertising that if you buy with them you get a free metroid demo, when this has nothing to do with them, they are just taking credit for something they haven't done.
Many people also like to support the smaller shops which helps stop shops like EB becoming a monopoly, in which case they could then jack prices up like crazy and their would be no-one to compete with them. Competition in bussiness is a good thing, and EB's offers are crap, they don't compete well, they just advertise better.

RE: gre innovation but is it designed well and powered well

Not to mention the staff. They tell you incorrect release dates (Mario Tennis 1st of April? Hm... No.), they are nerds and most of all they are show offs (I walked into there the other day and they were walking around with DSs hanging off necklacke straps).

Heh, they don't deserve to be called nerds, I'm a nerd.. well perhaps slowly working my way to becoming a hacker (MIT definition of a hacker, not someone who breaks into computers, thats a cracker).

The EB staff generally know nothing except how to charge more for a product you could get for cheaper at the next store

what hacking really is

One of the great MIT dome hacks, very funny

RE: Tetris DS ?

What's wrong with EB, the only reason I'm buying with EB is becuase I can trade in my SP and get half of the DS, I would buy with Gameplanet cos' I only need a few more points to get a free T-Shirt, weeee ! :D

Luineancaion have you been to any of the release party's at GP ?
