    Likelihood of Tesco selling NSMB at midnight tonight?

    What are (big) Tesco stores like for that? I've never used my local 24 hour one for a midnight purchase, so do they usually let the games go at that time, and do they usually have stock on the shelves for it anyway?

    Calling them got me through to a numpty with no clue. What are my chances?

    OH NOES!

    Bit of a funny one that. We have a 24hr Tesco near us and they do have a decent selection of games on the shelves due to it being a huge store.

    However, I have noticed that only certain games tend to get stocked. Guild Wars : Factions was on their shelves a few days after release, but Half Life Ep 1 was on there immediately on the day of release.

    It may be worth giving the store a buzz and ask them if they have it there ready to go out on the shelves on release and ask them to reserve one for you to pick up at the customer services desk (normally beside the cigarette counter).

    Games are not run by Tesco, they employ an implant company to do the games section, your only way to guarantee if its gonna be out at 12 is to speak to the guy/gal who work the games floor.
