GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Today I decided to go to EB Games in search for Metroid Prime 3:Corruption, I rented the game once and never finished it. When I arrived at the mall, I went shopping for some other items and got a brand new wallet chain, a copy of the new Disturbed cd, and a pack of Stride gum (Luckily I wasn't tackled by any mountain goats.)

When I finished window shopping at Chapters I decided it was time to ascend to the second floor and towards Electronics Boutique. Upon arrival I noticed a cut-out for Star Wars: The force Unleashed (A lot of unleashed games now-a-days huh?) Maybe I would Pre-order it. I entered and headed straight towards the WII section only to come out of it in disappointment. My next destination: the front counter, where I waited for at least 8 minutes.

Finally it was my turn, I walked up to the cashier and immediately asked "Do you have a copy of Metriod Prime 3: Corruption?" To which he responded "Let me check." so he went to work at his keyboard. I peaked at the monitor which was built into the desk and, unfortunately, things looked bleak.

When the employee had finished he looked up at me and said "I'm sorry but we don't have a copy in at the moment, but we do have Pokemon Mystery Dungeon in." the sentence rolled around in my head for a second until I realized how absurd it sounded. I looked him in the eye and said "Since when was Metroid a Pokemon?" The gentleman looked as shocked and confused as I was. He looked at the ceiling for a moment, yeah, like the answer's up there.

After he looked back at his monitor and told me there was a copy of Metroid Prime 2 in, I told him I had lost all hope for him and exited the store. I was disappointed and decided to return straight home, and now, here we are. (This part is just in case the employee is reading) Brian, if we ever do meet again, I expect an answer.

That's like asking for GTA 4 and getting notice that hello kitty is in for the gamecube...

I think he was just telling you another good selling game that you might be interested in in replacement for Metroid Prime 3, I doubt he was regarding Metroid as a Pokemon, meh, I dunno.
