Video game demos that are broken

I was playing punch out, and some genious before me managed to break the wii remote to the extent that i could hear something inside of it rattling when I tried to throw a punch. Also, the controls were so screwed up, and my friend started thinking I sucked at video games for a second.

-_-;

All I could do was dodge. So in the end, I was just dancing with Disco Kid until we finally left.

The demos for Ninty games at my Target have broken screens. The DS Lite is hanging out of its socket and dangling by its wire alone.

But the Xbox and PS3 ones are just fine... do I sense a conspiracy?

I would love to work at a store that has game displays just to yell at all the brats that hit them against the display. I went into Gamestop a while ago and this little kid bashed the wii mote on the counter and the lady working didn't say a thing. I was about to yell at the kid. Then I got a phone call and went to the food court to have Chinese.

Stores have Red Ringed boxes because they leave them in small display areas with poor air circulation for fourteen hours per day.

Wiimotes get stolen due to their nature, and handhelds break or run out of charge quickly.

Also had a father come up to me right after his kid destroyed one of the drum pads on the Rock Band display. He said, "You shouldn't let Mexicans play with your ****."
