I don't know if anyone has noticed, but the delay for people like me that live in Canada, is a good thing.

Why? Because March 9th is the Sunday before the Canadian March Break, so we will get to experience the awesomeness of Brawl for a whole week straight!:laugh:

If the game wasn't delayed, wouldn't you have still gotten to play it for a week straight anyway? Not only that, but you could've spent the time up to said week long break unlocking characters and such.

Again, why be happy about the delay? You would've had the game for the break anyway, and without the delay you could've already unlocked characters to go online with (or gotten the more annoying ones out of the way).

I love you.

I didn't even realize that, I was going to go to Detroit during that break as well. Lolz.
Yay, we actually won at something game-related. :p

Happy that the delay is on THAT date, March 9th. Sure, I'd still be happy if it wasn't delayed, but since it is, good thing it's on a day that we can use freely.

What it means is that us pro Canadian Gamers can get a jump start on the Americans.

We're on top of you guys, don't piss us off.

Before you read the following post, you need to know that I call Spring Break as March Break.

True, I was p****d, and still a little bummed about the wait. But the very instant I saw the delay notice my day just went downhill. So I noticed someone saying that's my March Break! At that point I realized that's when I had my March Break last year. I went to my school board website and checked the date, and March Break was the week Brawl came out. Then my day only got better!

But that random post aside, if we had gotten Brawl when we did, I was only going to fake sick for a day so I could play Brawl, and it would have affected me BIG time, as willing as I was to actually do it. But now I have a whole week of not worrying about homework or studying or feeling guilty, or getting in trouble for faking sick and skipping school. Plus I can pull all-nighters for sure. Besides, before the delay I was unsure if I should pre-order it because EB Games' date was March, but I was unsure if this was the Canadian date or not so I would have ordered it from an American website instead, if the date wasn't brought down officially beforehand. Now that it's official, I can get it the day everyone else in North America will get it. So the delay was a good thing.

And Brawl does come out after I get my report card, which is the last day before March Break, so the pressure for school should be off and I can play Brawl until the cows come home!

@ GinRei:
Well you gotta find the positive parts of Brawl being delayed... I mean I hate to see brawl getting delayed but heck, it's about time i start thinking a bit more positive about the delay.

Lol Yea, Maybe fake sick... Depending on what exactly i would do on that week. I hope i don't get a midterm report card before march break or there goes my Brawl week

If you're referring to my post: I know, that was my entire point.

Here, let me spell it out in case it was too subtle I ****ing hate the NFL.

Interestingly enough, our Spring Break at University of Central Florida (United States) starts on March 10, and is also a week long. Which means that we are just as lucky. But I hear Canadians are smarter and live longer on average.

So "lucky" is quite an arbitrary term to be tossing around.

Lucky you. Of course March 9 falls on a Sunday, so I couldn't even pull an all-nighter unless I wanted to skip school the next day. I still might...:laugh:

lol a lot of universities and schools celebrate easter break or spring break right after brawl comes out. therefore, many americans will also get a week of unquestioned brawl. case closed you lose.


close thread

do you canadians assume that school, work, family, disease, nuclear holocaust, OR ANYTHING is going to keep me from experiencing a full week of brawl regardless?


plus, spring break for ALL will come shortly
