Tin-Foil-Theory: They are trying to keep open to today for the release of DOOM Eternal and Animal Crossing.
- LeftCorner 7y agoAbsolutely. There is not a Switch in 200 miles of my house and most retailers I spoke with agree it is because of Animal Crossing. I suspect this weekend will be huge for GameSpot sales on these titles alone.
- fishiecracker 7y agoA lot of Gamestops were letting people get them yesterday
- XaspR8d 7y agoThat's my foil-free theory; those are two very large releases! Regardless of sales, not being able to fulfill all the customer preorders would probably tank their remaining brand confidence irrevocably.
- SAI_Peregrinus 7y agoAnd with a shared fanbase. Somehow DOOM and Animal Crossing go together.
- RegnisGnaw 7y agoI got Doom Eternal for myself, Animal Crossing for my wife. All online though.
- cmrdporcupine 7y agoIt's not tin-foil. That's exactly what EBGames here in Canada is doing. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/03/18/toronto-employees-are-being-told-to-work-in-the-face-of-covid-19-and-theyre-angry-and-scared.html https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/03/18/toronto-employee... Awful. You can just download Animal Crossing anyways...
