Have you ever been to a midnight release of a game or game console?

 

I've been to a midnight movie, but not a game release.  What about you guys?

I'm never out at midnight for ANY reason

 

...unless it's New Year's Eve or I'm having a really good time at a relative's place.

 

Midnight releases never interested me to be honest. Seriously, just get your sleep and THEN buy what you want.

 

Peace!

Yep. I went for a midnight release of a COD game. I just forgot which one.

[Shard the Gentleman 2,891]

I'm usually awake at midnight anyways xDI'd love to go to one someday ;-;

I've never been to a midnight release of a video game or video game console, but that'll all change, because once Kingdom Hearts III comes around, I'll most definitely try my best to attend the midnight event for the game's release!  If there's a PS4 bundle for it, even better!

[Anti-SOLDIER 68]

No because I couldn't. I do sleep in and get it as soon as possible the next day and I do want to do that sometime soon.

I've been to a few midnight releases, like Skyrim, CoD with my fiance, Pokemon, and some others.

[KeybladeLordCheeseCurd 1,542]

Nope! I don't want to fall alseep in a crowded game store.

[RikuFangirl2008 1,368]

No. I don't even know if they do Midnight Releases where I'm at. And plus to me, when it gets dark, it's not safe. Anything can happen... 

[Rinax 473]

Yep! Pokemon ORAS. It was nice because there's another mall in the city that's more known and so there were less people at my mall/EB Games. Except that there were also people there to pick up Smash. Got a lot of StreetPasses, though.

When I don't sleep I eat people to make up for the lost energy. Canaballism is, infact, frowned upon in most societies. So I can't stay up till midnight, no. (at least when my family has any say in the matter....... )

[venxas24 544]

I've been to the smash 3ds and wii u and the pokemon oras release and they were amazing and really well done, there were tournaments and side matches going on and it was just awesome

[Klonoa the Dream Traveler 678]

Definitely. I always do that when it comes to my favorite games.

[Riku777 6]

No........ But I might someday!

[WakingDawn96 1,166]

Yes, it happened a few times, but since they were just not the celebration type, it wasn't that fun. But yeah, I went to the Smash Bros and Pokemon midnight release at GameStop and they were so busy that they were almost rushing us out the door. Then there have been times when I went to Walmart after getting them to hold a copy of the game I want at midnight and well since I got the game and no one was there, it was a small event for just me (this happened with Smash 3DS)

[Key Sharkz 69]

I might do it again depending on the game. These days the only real games that sell out (and thus making it worth standing in line at midnight) are Nintendo exclusives.

It wasn't a midnight release, but I went to Target 2 hours before they opened so I could get the Jigglypuff amiibo (Picked up some others of course, but Jigglypuff was my main target). Dedicated amiibo collector, woo.

Seeing so many rare amiibo up close was beautiful. ;_;

Seeing so many rare amiibo up close was beautiful. ;_;

 

I'll never forget this one

 

[Shulk 8,623]

I'll never forget this one

 

You got so lucky to find those. ._. Worst part is Target has no plans to restock them, so I'll need to import or trade for her.

[Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) 3,859]

I've never heard of a midnight release, I guess there just aren't any where I live.

 

Is this serious? Can't you guys stay up untill 12 at night? It isn't that hard .

[Setrex 1,031]

Nope, but that's because I've never been given the choice. Places round here rarely do midnight releases.

[Geralt 4,874]

Only for films. Where I have lived the major game stores like Gamestop are always 30 minutes out and any non-franchised game store or store like Walmart nearby doesn't do that kinda stuff.

[Weedanort 8,787]

There's no midnight releases here in my country ._.
