Avimimus Report post Posted March 3, 2004 I am new here and not sure if I am sticking my head in the proverbial alligators mouth. Here in Canada (where we often gets an unbalanced supply of software), I could only find one store carrying UC, it was Staples/Business-Depo (a hardware/supply store) and they had it in with their cheap/low quality games section near the bottom. Its price of twenty dollars Cdn. for a new product gave me the impression that something must be horribly wrong with it. I have seen this before, distributers don't get the product to the right place at the right time, in the right quantity and the product sinks. My question is simple: Is there anything preventing Derek Smart taking UC and retooling it back to BCG for a few months and then selling it for an appropriate price?

Bandus Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Your definetly sticking your head into the alligators mouth. Do a search. There is a reason it's called UC. There is also a reason it's priced how it's priced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supreme Cmdr Report post Posted March 3, 2004 And you can't find it because - according to DC - its selling like mad. At that price, I'm not surprised actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess you haven't been keeping up here with what's been going on. But let's just say that when I went to buy my copy, I had to go to 5 Gamestop's / EB Games before I found my copy (the last one) and every store that I went to, told me that they sold out. This product is definitely NOT sinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fractux Report post Posted March 10, 2004 I know none of this is an ideal situation, but with UC selling like hotcakes, maybe all the additional exposure will, in the end, do quite a bit of good. When people see the posibilities they can have in a game, they may crave for more. (And after reading you latest interview on HomeLan, here's hoping ) Cheers!
