It’s Wednesday, Nov. 28 and we’re here with POWCast 73 for your listening pleasure. Cheetorlives, Bodach, and myself survived Black Friday selling games in Fenton and Arnold, MO and we have stories to share from that. The big story is Bodach’s trying to get the things he wanted from GameStop, but not wanting to go to one with a crowd, so he went to the lowest volume store in the area, and found out why the store is so low volume. His story is unbelievable until you hear it for yourself.
Yeah we talk about a LOT of retail stuff, which also correlates into sales discussion on the Wii/Wii U and 360 consoles over the weekend, in addition to the Wii Mini launching exclusively in Canada? We then quickly wrap up with discussion of the other news stories of the week like a possible 360/PS3 port of the 3DS Resident Evil game, Czech diplomats getting into discussions with the Grecian government over two of it’s citizens (and developers on the ARMA series) being jailed for over 2.5 months as possible spies, Sony’s credit rating going down to junk status, MLB The Show’s cover athlete contest, and 2K Sports closing down online servers for all but their newest titles.
