Best Buy Error in my favor

After doing a bit of net surfing and looking at my new EGM issue I realised something. Best Buy made an error in my favor. Shenmue is not supposed to be released until 11/11/00, yet I got it today! Okay, so it's just a day early, but it's still cool to me. Also I finally got my TG-16 from Ebay this morning <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif">------------------

hurm... Breaking street dates isn't all that uncommon, though. I know of a bunch of stores that will do that for certain things. I mean, maybe its -not- the same thing as with video games, but I've heard bookstores in the area were already selling copies of Robert Jordan's new book Winter's Heart last week when it was released this Tuesday. And what about the things I remember dealing with when I worked at Planet Anime how Suncoast and other video stores regularly broke street date to get videos out and stuff, whereas we always got ours late. c.c;;; It sucked. Big time. Anyway... That's my 2 cents on this. ^.^------------------
