hmm...ill ask the store owner how many copies they expect to get. as retail goes, those who reserve copies are the only ones guaranteed to have it, but im sure they will have alot not reserved. or you could reserve one while your at the tourney. from what i remember working at similar stores, you might be able to reserve a copy at a game crazy closer to you, and arrange to pick it up at the U. City location.

seeing how many copies of super mario galaxy, assassin's creed, guitar hero 3, and every other major game release i've seen lately... i'm sure that copies of the game will NOT be hard to attain once it is released.

Makes me wish I had a Wii.

And a TV that I could play it on.

And a memory card.

And my own controller.

Hmm yeah that makes sense that there would be dozens of copies there.

But if I get it at midnight there, that's three hours of driving back when I could be playing, so I dunno if I'm gonna show.

500th post w00t!

I just talked to geno, he said its ok if u guys stay friday night. Heres the plan. Geno has to be at work by like 5 or 6 saturday, but the tourney should be wrapping up by then since theres no doubles. Im sure ppl can stay at the venue and play friendlies for a while, and the Loop has plenty of restaurants and shops to look around in within walking distance. So there will be plenty to keep everyone occupied until midnight, when brawl goes on sale. Then after midnight, we all can PROBABLY go back to geno's for the first BRAWL SMASHFEST, so it should be a fun weekend!

Hey, I'm new here so I don't know too much, and I'm also new to the tourney scene, and I have a question.

You guys seem to know each other well, are random strangers welcome to this or not?

I've been looking to get into the scene for a bit now and I'm trying to find a area nearby to play, you guys are nearby so I thought I'd check it out.

Holy crap, you wake up early. Also, Zoze needs to wait longer for his money. All of it is currently being spent on my laptop :(

I need Zoze to beat Toga, Deku to beat Tre, Zoze beats Tre, and then the world blows up for me to take the Brawl disk! Bwuahahaha!


















Actually we need Ed to win this since he actually has a Wii >_>

IF I decide to go back home for spring break, and lord knows that I will...I will come to this. If I dont decide to come home though...I wonder where I'll be!

How do you get to Gamecrazy???
from lindenwood university, you would go east on highway 70, take it to 170 south, get off at Delmar (go east on Delmar, you should pass up North & South, Hanley, etc) keep going down delmar til you get to game crazy. idk if mapquest gives you different directions but thats the way i would go.

lol yea..no doubles..well let me talk to the store owner and see if they wanna squeeze it in there. if they get enough entries for doubles to pay for the free brawl copy they might do it.

I have a question, since singles are gonna be $5 per person and if 10 ppl go the pot would become $50, now that $50 would go into brawl then what would we get on giftcards? Also if 20 people come there still wouldn't be that much left over for the pot.

im sure there will be more than 10 ppl....thats why there wasnt a designated number on the gift cards...its whatever's left after brawl is paid for...im guessing we'll have enough to fill a 32 man bracket at least..consiering the store already has ppl pre registerd and its a month away
