Joyswag: LittleBigBeta code giveaway, day three

Oct 1st 2008 8:15PM (Joystiq)
I liked the LBP Beta Code Adventure:

It's a fairly accurate description of what it's like for us, the frothing masses, trying to get our hands on a beta key before the game releases. It's always good to be able to laugh at yourself.

Toys R' Us nonsense [update 1]

Oct 29th 2006 7:15PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I camped at a Toys R Us in TN from about 6AM to opening at noon, and there were only about 6 people in front of me. They were all together (I want to say they were family but probably were friends with relatives) and between them all, they bought all 4 PS3 units, one Wii unit (they tried to argue that their 11yo son deserved the second preorder since he had camped out "all night" but left that night at midnight to return at 5. I feel bad that he didn't get the system he really wanted, but they should have had someone camp out in his place instead of going by verbal agreements with the manager there), and *8* tickle me elmo dolls....funny, they knew the exact ebay price of each item...

It was sort of screwy because they only had 3 Wii preorders, another (dumber) manager didn't do her homework and started selling preorders last night before they closed because people were pressuring her. They originally had 15 or 20 Wii units but after this girl reamed their stocked preorders prematurely there were only three available this morning. I did get one but sort of feel bad for all the willing campers that came at all hours of the morning only to hear that both consoles were completely sold out.

Secret "Simple Start" Wi-Fi connection? [Update 1]

Sep 10th 2006 10:45PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Very interesting! Has anyone tested to see if this is for the DS Wifi Dongle (since it's almost redundant for people with routers) or with other DS units? I may try it with other units simultaneously (3+ units) in two weeks, but if I can find my fatty original DS I'll try it with that and my Lite.
