• San Francisco Location: 39 Stockton Street, San Francisco, CA 94108

• Boston Location: 156 Newbury Street, Boston, MA 02116

What the f***. Um... cool, I guess.

I never saw a publisher to open a store like that. So I guess the series are actually successful...

So a game from EA (that's exclusive to the Wii) is so big that it gets its own retail store, yet they say that they're disappointed with the Wii. Yeah that makes sense! How about doing more marketing like this for all your Wii games, than they might be as success as this one clearly is.

Yeah, it is pretty hypocritical of EA, but there's a reason this one sold: It's an "exercise" game. Those are like bread and butter on Wii in terms of raking in profits. Kinda goes hand-in-hand with how it was recently said somewhere the developer waits for Nintendo to release something to follow the trend and release their own.

One word: Natal.

EA is a franchise whore. It won't stay exclusive for long.

What's next? Ubisoft opening an "Imagine" or "Petz" store? Hahahahaha, pathetic really.

This is like Nintendo opening a store just to promote Wii Sports Resort.

An entire store just for one "game"...
