So, would I call up that gamestop slug if I preordered?

You like colored text, huh? I'm going to preorder it just for the coin. I want the game, of course, but I'm only ordering it for the Coin! Someday, we will be the only ones to have it.

Dude, it's against the rules to use colored text.

It is not, specifically. It's just really annoying and no one will like you for it.

If it were against the rules the code for it would be disabled. I know that on some forums (NSider, for one) people will constantly use colored text. Mr.Toadsworth, did you happen to come from there?

Actually, it's just an eyesore. But if you'd like to give me a pizza anyway, feel free!

Mwahaha, but consistently colored text has the reverse of pizazz. It has only zzazip.

NSider's one of many forums that has members using coloured text, so, even if this wasn't his first forum, it'd be highly improbable- if not impossible- to determine which forum he was on beforehand. I was a regular on PE2k once, and the number of people using coloured text was a surprisingly high ratio compared to those who didn't; even many mods, gmods, and admins iirc used it. I assume that quite a few other forums are similiar in their treatment of coloured text and its usage.

NSider recently closed and all its members have gone forth on the Internet. I know a few have come here.

I did too. At a Game Stop.  But got No coin, unless you get it by mail.  A little disappointed in that, but oh well.  At least I got the game pre-ordered

Cool, another Coin to be thrown inside my collection of coins with no currency value.

As for NSider, not only do people use colored text, they also center them, change the size, and to top it off, use sprites from Video Games in their posts.

The original article's gone now!  How do I get my coin?  And are we talking coin as in collect 100 and seriously get a life--or is it like a coin with Mario's face on it?

It's got Mario and that squishy star thing as they appear on the box. It's all silver, except the star, which is gold-colored.

Thanks, Bird Person!  I want it regardless but was kind of hoping it'd be a more authentic coin.

As usual, us europeans get nothing!!! Can anyone elaborate why NoE don't do pro-order bonuses? Or any other company for that matter?

I just found out the Toy R us is giving a 25$ gift card if pre-ordered.

Since I have already pre-ordered through GameStop, and cannot cancel 'cause I lost my receipt, I'll have to be happy with the coin.

So how about it? One hand 25 bucks on the other a coin of no monetary value.

You should be able to cancel or transfer your GameStop pre-order without a receipt.  I do it all the time and all they need is my name or phone number.  I suspect it's too late to pre-order SMG though.
