Katamari Damacy Sold Out

Posted by Zonk on from the retailers-take-notice dept.

mausmalone writes "Katamari Damacy is completely sold out at most game retailers." The relatively unknown game is completely out of stock because retailers base their orders on preorders...which they didn't allow for this title.

  3. Play This Game! by Crutcher · · Score: 2, Funny

    This game has a) the stupidest premise, and b) the most awesome gameplay of any game that I've seen or played which has come out in the past 5 years. Play it, if you can get a copy!

  4. Man, Did I Get Lucky... by DLWormwood · · Score: 2, Funny
    ...I first read about this game a year ago, and developed a mild curiousity about it. I asked about this game a month ago, when I first found out about it's NA release, however, since I wasn't too keen on actually playing it, I never pre-ordered it.

    However, I showed up the day after release and asked around, and the store operator remembered asking about it and had a copy held for me at a neighboring store, if I could pick it up within 18 hours. The other store actually had to turn away about 4-5 other buyers before I showed up with only an hour to spare. Moral: be good chums with your video game store staff and they'll help you in a pinch.

    That said, I'm glad I got it. I still haven't beated it, despite the game's "short length," since it gets a little frustrating on the later levels. However, this is the happiest game I've ever played, despite the fact that you are ruthlessly wadding people and animals up in a ball to hurl them in the cold recesses of space.

    WARNING: Do not play while taking drugs. You won't be able to tell when they wear off...

  5. Let me see if I have this right.. by Toby_Tyke · · Score: 3, Funny

    It's a video game, right? But, but, you don't shoot things?

    And there are no rocket luanchers? Or machine guns?

    No, I just don't understand.

    Seriously, I had'nt heard of this, but it looks fantastic.
