Damn. Smash 4 came to Oregon near me.

I'm not driving all the way to Seattle to play a demo for two matches.

When it comes to driving, I only have my learners permit, so going all the way out to New York for me is illegal unless my parents drive. Even if I could, I wouldn't because going out for two or three games wouldn't be worth the three hour trip there and three hour trip back.

I think I'll choose to watch YouTube videos of others playing the demo from the comfort of my bed.

No Boston locations. Oh well, it's not like I was planning on going outside anyway.

On the one had it's an hour and a half drive for me to get to the nearest one. On the other, it is Smash and I don't have other plans..

Man, if I was willing to drive like 8 hours, I could go in any direction and play! Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago, and Dallas! I'm actually just about right in the exact middle point between all of them... and just about as far from the Smash Ultimate demo as possible. Too bad. The Smash Wii U demo actually did come to Kansas City, and it was kinda cool getting to play Mushroom Kingdom U before they ruined the stage with Nabbit and Greninja before they started nerfing him though items were on which did severely limit the fun and we had to play with pro controllers which was pretty bad. I took literally seven pages of notes and posted them on Smashboards and recorded several matches for youtube so there was all that fun; all around it was totally worth going even if most of the time was spent waiting in line to play like 3 times or whatever. If your demos are like mine was, for those close enough to actually go, it will still be pretty cool but expect some of the same sorts of limitations I faced; it won't be anything near as great as it will be come December 7 when you can play the full game without limits.

They must have.

Regardless, Nintendo seems to release games in the same cities. Usually.
I'm gonna guess theres a demo in Miami, though Smash for Wii U did come to a Best Buy in Fort Lauderdale.
I remember I preordered my game, and never received my golden smash coin! Anger.
