Oh, in that case:

Just checked the link and somehow one came in at a GS in my area! I'm giving them a call and getting my ass over to their store first thing tomorrow morning.



lucky bastard. One was supposed to me at my town's store. Went there. It wasn't. Strangely, within the week it vanished from their inventory. Hmmm.

Yup, that's what I like to call the 'hold' effect.

It's like any other store with few employees and a small floor size, stuff goes 'missing' just to show up right when an employee has the money to buy it.

The biggest problem with Steel Bat. is that they may have had only the disc and not the controller, it happened at a lot of stores I went to when looking for it along with instances of the 'hold effect' showing up from time to time.

In a roundabout session of irony a Gamecube Broadband Adapter showed up at my GameStop today!

I bought the thing as soon as the customer finished trading it in.

Sorry man, I'm actually trying to collect four of these!

That way I'll have all the online hardware needed for a full Gamecube LAN party madhouse.
