Anyone Not going to the Midnight Release?

[Jellybelly]

I would go, but some diety would probably throw a lighting bolt at me.

And I live in the UK, thats probably a better reason...

 

[Spellman]

Some Canadians and many Mexicans won't be going at midnight.

 

[NeroeXIII]

I live in Toronto, I got hit by a storm . Although I preordered from Toysrus ( dont ask why I always do And I ALWAYS get it on the first day..Not many gamers go to toysrus, ITS MINDGAMEZ.) Anyway I wanted to try Walmart tonight, but since I can't I dont mind another night...I just hope I can fall asleep....

 

[LucidDreamGod]

I won't be going all I can do is hope the guy at wal-mart was right about so many copies of the game, and thank god I have alot of places that sell games around and only small towns in the surrounding area, with mostly older people and hardcore xbox 360 fan boys.

I'll be pissed if I can't play it tomorrow though, or my mom waits till like 5pm or something to drive me out to get it, that wouldn't leave much time and I would have to go to bed soon after and go to school, and I don't want each hour at school to seem like an eternity, I just want to brawl all day tomorrow and get it all out of my system. I want it as soon as I wake up, but I doubt it.

 

[Bishop_S]

I'm not going because I dont feel like it... I'll get it tomorrow sometime around late morning or early afternoon...

 

[J-man24star]

Monday... anyone getting it on monday for some reason?

 

[Sychu]

Too many drawbacks for me to go: busses close at 10, can't walk because of bad weather e.t.c.

 

[Kuroneko]

I'm not going. I ordered mine online, so I'll get it tuesday. I'll be drinking myself to sleep until then.

 

[J-man24star]

Not to be rude or anything, But i'm glad i'm not the only one not going to the midnight release.

 

[corban123]

i planned far enough back, so my parents r like sure, w/e cuz ive been to the halo 3 midnight release also so, ya,,,,

 

[S0crat3s]

"Keep the Sabbath Day Holy" means "Go to Mass on Sunday and Don't Go to Work"...God's fine with you attending the Midnight release, He's probably doing it too...

I can't go because I'm in Telluride, Colorado and technology doesn't exist there...:/

I'm getting it tomorrow night when I come back, though...^_^

 

[NintendoGX159]

I'm not going to the Midnight Release for Three reasons.

1. Where I live if you are around town between 11:00 P.M to 4:00 A.M, you'll be asking for a death sentence

2. None of my family members(except for my brother and a few of my cousins) gives a **** about video games.

3. I'm going to church, and after that the mall opens around 1:00 P.M on Sundays, I'll will be picking up my reserved copy of Brawl.

 

[Spartan1841]

I'm not going cause its midnight nothing more its better to go during the day than to buy at 12 just to play for a while then lose sleep. I'm going straight to gamestop next morning

 

[KJC2004]

Well the eb games i preordered at isn't doing a midnight release...so ye

im in the same problem to

*dam indoor malls*

 

[Chro]

Nope, I can wait 11 hours, and my parent's wouldn't let me play at 12:30 anyway. I'm going to take a nice walk down to my Gamestop at 10:30, be there when they open, walk back (prolly run teh last 5 blocks or so lol) and play in the afternoon some time... yeah.

 

[LoserNumber2]

I'm not going because I dont feel like it... I'll get it tomorrow sometime around late morning or early afternoon...

same as this guy. i also preordered so i dont have a problem

 

[J-man24star]

Noone not gonna get it on Monday? sad

 

[theGreatDekuTree]

Well, I sure can't go cause-

1. It's at Midnight- which leads to more problems:
2. noone in my family is mad enough to lose sleep over a stupid game
3. I'm not mad enough to stay up to go to a convention of 30 year olds staying up to get an awsome game. (I'm only 14.)
4. it's on Sunday- I'm Staying True to Christianity, and worship God over a game.


It's dissapointing, very dissapointing, casue i want to get the game, BADLY.
Sucks that Nintendo isn't aware of Religious Gamers.

Anyone not going besides these resons? I hope i'm not the only one who isn't going.

your acting ********
sunday is regarded as a day of leisure and rest to christans, playing a videogame is fine & acceptable, dont get pissy at everyone else little kid.
no one "worships" this game, and im not 30....

 

[theGreatDekuTree]

dubblepost

 

[Asuma]

Nope not me,cause I pre-ordered mine through the mail,so I'll be getting mine Monday because Post office isnt open on Sundays.

The Fact-Sunday is a day of REST. Not Labor. it is a day to focus on GOD, not awsome video games. going to stores is like saying, Hay, it's ok to work on sunday, and not support God, like he didn't command us that we weren't supposed to work on sunday, and worship him.
if u don't work, but buy stuff, it's like saying it's ok to work on Sunday, by forcing laborors,(cept fire fighters, Police, Hospitals, Army, Other jobs such as these ones that are really needed for the community) to work. RARELY is there an exception to use money, other than offerings on Sunday.

Same reasons for me.

 

[-Knux-]

~Well, the closest GameStop is thirty minutes away from where I live, so that presents a problem.
~I have no idea if they are even having a midnight release.
~My parents wouldn't let me drive to a GameStop so late for a video game.
~I didn't preorder Brawl there, rather Circuit City.

But I AM getting it first thing 9 AM tomorrow morning. =D I'll have some brekkers at the Cracker Barrel beforehand and head on over to Circuit City. Then we'll go to GameStop (because I need to use up a $25 gift card before it expires) and I'll buy a gamecube controller, Star Fox Assault, or summat. I'll then head home and proceed to play the best game evar. Tomorrow will be one of the most memorable days in my life.

 

[heety9]

I'm 13, and my parents have banned me from video games and said I have to study more even though I always get As. And I'm a really hardcore gamer. Yeah, life sucks.

 

[tanisdourden]

i wont be going since i have to work until 7 am. monday morning.
But i will be getting it on my way to choir practice sunday afternoon. preordered it and is paid in full. so not spending any money, technically.

 

[billywill]

Yeah im going to midnight realease, im 14, and im still going to church. If i can do it you can too!!!!

Let me say this: I admire and respect your decision to stay true to your religion. Well done.

As for me? I'm not going to the midnight release for the same reasons. I've already ordered mine via Ebay. I've saved 2$. Good luck.

Oh, might I add that the closest Gamestop is 3-4 hours away, and the closest WALMART is 30-40 minutes away. This could present a problem. I'm sticking with the guaranteed risk free way. Heh.

 

[huhen]

I'm not going cause it's saturday and i'm gonna be getting drunk as hell.

 

[dtp882]

You FAKE Christians make me sick.

 

[ThatInsaneKid]

We had a blizzard today.

Because of snow drifts, there are three feet of snow in some places.

The snow plows would go through streets once, and a half hour later they'd have to do it again.

As such, my mall is closed.

My GameStop is in the mall.

Luckily, the conditions are supposed to be cleared up by midnight.

So hopefully, the mall will reopen around noon tomorrow (that's what time they normally open on Sunday), and after I do my Spanish homework, I'll go pick my copy up.

But seriously, I just died a little inside. :[

 

[FalconPunch]

LOL at people letting religion get in the way of fun. Fun>>>>>>god anyday.

 

[ZSSmetroid01]

we've got a blizzard in Toronto, Canada as well.

 

[xfootdoctor]

whatever, just go

it's so good that even GOD wants to play the game
he almost killed sakurai for delaying

 

[J-man24star]

You FAKE Christians make me sick.

[illphil]

Wow only smashboards could turn a thread about a game into a christian debate. Good job

 

[The Sorrow]

Well, I'm not going to the midnight release because I pre-ordered online... I'll be expecting Brawl monday hopefully

 

[Jellybelly]

Urg, christian elitist alert.

What if *gasp* some people aren't Christians?
