This is a super opportunity that JJ is offering. I was at Game Exchange this morning and gladly gave him the deposit funds. Now I don't have to worry about mysterious announcement timing, I know that I'll have one of the first machines around, and he'll ultimately charge me the lowest available price.
JJ wouldn't do this if he wasn't confident that there was a very good chance that this next machine will be a runaway hit, and this offer gives him a fair way to distribute something that is likely to be in ridiculous demand. Like; sold out fast.
Because his track record of customer attention, service, and support are unparalleled, this was a no-brainer for me. Join in the fun!
