Default [Kotaku] 7-Eleven Begins Taking Game Pre-Orders
Quote:
Nearly 3,200 stores had considerable Madden sales the first week of the game's release.

More than 25 percent of Madden sales at 7-Elevens occurred between midnight and 1 a.m.

What's that mean to you John Q Customer? Why that starting this month 7-Eleven is going to start selling the seven "highest potential games" introduced for the holiday wind up.

7-11 is literally the attraction of the scum of the earth sometimes over here in NY.

NJ has it good because they have nice, clean, and big WaWas. WaWa FTW

Thats the only good thing about 7/11 is the slushies. BUT - WaWas have their own "make it yourself" milk shakes that are just...... AMAZINGLY AWESOME. I'd have the milkshake over 7/11 slushies any day of the week.

Same here. Wawa's are the best convenient stores on the east coast. But people outside these parts have probably never heard of it.
