OK, I was going to get Kid Icarus Uprising a day early. (I live in NY, so a store on W. 84 Street was selling it for the event/tournament.) I took the two hour long trains and made it there. I waited in a LONG LONG line and I asked an employee if I would still be able to get the game here, even though I pre-ordered from another GameStop. He said sure, you can get it here, etc. So, I said thanks, and waited in the line as I watched people unbox it a day early. I go up to there and show the receipt and the employee, another one says that I can't get this game as I pre-ordered it in another GameStop and now I'd have to put down another $45 and then cancel my old pre-order. I told him how I was told differently by another employee and he still said no. Now it took me two hours to get back, but instead of getting a game, I won't be able to. The only bright side was that I was able to see the game, see a Kid Icarus van, YES! A tournament, Nintendo employees, people from other states, and other cool things. I also will be able to get the game tomorrow. I'm just upset because I was mislead. My mom said to come back with more than $10 and I did, just still. I feel upset. Have you ever had a problem at GameStop, you must've. I hate GameStop's new policies!

 

My mom is probably disappointed that I didn't get the game even though we were excited. :(

 

MODS DON'T DELETE THIS! Just move it if you'd like.

 

I will be unboxing the game tomorrow though and I hope everyone will enjoy it. PM me if you'd like to ask me about the game. This was such a horrible day!

I hate that I can't preorder DDD for in-store pick-up online -.-

 

THAT TOO! I pre-ordered Uprising from the one on 14 St. (Union Square). I asked them for that and they said they can't do that. Then they said the game will definitely be out on July 1 or July 31. They really have problems with information. They don't know the difference between an official date and a placeholder date? Also, when I was in NJ for a while a girl who worked at one wanted to hire me because I knew about all of the games, but I was too young! Seriously!

Their website. I've been searching for 'Mass Effect 2' for awhile, and every store near me that claimed to have one, well, didn't have a single copy.

They don't have any copies of KH in anywhere. No KH games. They say it's because it's been out for a while. They still have Mario Kart DS, but not Re: coded, which came out a year ago. That makes perfect sense! (*sarcasm*)

I can see where they were coming from with pre-ordering from one store and picking it up in another (both stores would get cheated out of money), but it still wasn't right for them to mislead you.

Well actually, they said they could transfer the money, they just didn't want to because of the event. Maybe because they were selling the game a whole 24 hours before the game was sold completely to the public. Usually if I'm not near the store I pre-ordered from they just transfer the money.

The one in my town no longer has PSP games on display, I didn't even know they still carried them until I looked around and found them on a single stand. But, they're cheaper than WalMart, and I get points with my Power Up Rewards card for coupons and stuff.

I hate how they don't take back PC games.

I never preorder, especially at crapstop. I'm sorry that happened to you. :< /you live in the city? I'm a long islander lol

Yeah! They lie and mislead their customers and they're prices and deals are awful. Even Best Buy is better. Amazon has the best deals! They need to make better policies and learn to actually help their customers. They tried to charge me twice for this game. For now I'm no longer a GameStop customer. Tomorrow will be the last time I get a game there, I've got to get my pre-order! Also, the so-called employees were RUDE and said I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY! Well, neither do I have all day to be lied and mislead by you!

Well, you shouldn't blame the company for some employees.  The Gamestop I go to has very kind employees. Also, when you cancel your preoder at the other one, you get your money back.

someone is mad.

 

It's not Gamestop that is awful, it's the employes there. oh sure their trade-in prices are crap, but it's an easy place to shop.

 

You hate on things to easily. (Though I can see why that could be annoying)

The one near me is very nice, and let me do this. But hey, at least it's not GAME.

That might not be GameStop. But not having newer games in stock, but having older games in stock doesn't make sense, especially since they said that older games are taken off shelf is GameStop.

I've preordered at one GameStop and picked up at another. It's no trouble in Virginia. I've actually never had a bad experience with GameStop.

GAME's the best game store we have.

 

Gamestop closed a few weeks ago throughout the country.

A Gamestop near my house just opened last year. It's been great so far, and all the employees are really nice. I always order games in threes (siblings), and they always go out of their way to show us that we are getting all 3 preorder bonuses and extra info on where to verify this.

 

Oddly, I recently bought two FF IIIs for the DS from Gamestop. When were they from, 2007?
