    Reminds me of the last time I was in my local game store, some guy was trying to return a game, because it didn't work on his PC, he obviously didn't check the requirements, he's ranting on about how it should work and the only reason it isn't is because it's faulty

    Man: "I know computers!!! It should work"

    Me (In the line behind him, seeing how fed up the cashiers were getting) : 'scuse me do you have a <totally made up name of graphics card and CPU> as it's known to have problems with that hardware

    Man: Yes I do! See, it's faulty

    Me: Thank you for confirming that you know sod all about Computers

    *Manager walks past and high fives me*

    I know pretty much all the staff in that store
    I am the nocturnal echo-locating flying mammal man.

      Or the "Mario for the Sony iPod." (I swear to go I'm not making this up.)
      The what for the what, now ?

      "Excuse me, but you don't meet the mental age requirement for this game. Could get in trouble with ESRB with a stunt like that. No game for you, sorry."
      "I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."

        Heck I still get people on a regular basis coming into my store looking for games and controllers for the ORIGINAL NES! Sorry folks, we stopped carrying them in 1996.
        Kinda makes ya wonder if the retro gaming market is untapped. Though Nintendo is trying with the Virtual Console (they still need Mario All-Stars and Mario Kart for the SNES on their list though...). I guess they finally got tired of people having to pirate NES/SNES roms and figured if you can't beat 'em, join 'em?
