Battletoads for 30 grand is just as dumb as people calling gamestop to ask for it. Legally speaking, you could get 10 percent on battletoads if you were willing to press the issue at that store.
I just want to separate the cereal from the mouse mask.

Are people actually criticizing the guy for having fun like this? Hell he could be threatening to call the cops or kick people out of the store, but instead he does something playful and different.

I wish MY boss would do stuff like that.

Yeah, Battletoads was always asked for at my GameStop, too. Another popular one was "Madden vs NCAA (insert two years from now)."

I remember my boss once assuring the guy on the phone we had it, but that he needed to hurry up because another customer might buy it instead. He never showed up, obviously, but we would have just told him he got there too late.

While you're there ask for Berzerk on the 2600. I hear the 2600 games are now going on sale at Gamestop. :)

I always know a console is out of the mainstream when it's no longer supported at GameStop and I have to start looking in thrift stores.

I would give the management bonus points if I could call up a GameStop and ask for, you know, that game, with the... Pimple? And Rash? You know what I'm talking about? -- and they did.

Ask for Berserk first. Then after the employee says GameStop doesn't stock old games, then ask for BattleToads. ;)
