The way guys react to girls being in game shops is quite stupid to be honest. I'd love to uppercut those jaws shut sometime 
The only time people aren't suprised to see girl gamers is on DDR. You know, the ones that spend a whole credit on three goes on Afronova Revenge. Grrr  |

Oh how I wish that it was the other way around.
I'd be up to my neck in chicks.

We don't get an awful lot of girls in my store to be honest, but when we do they tend to be the coolest ones. We had one who bought a Megadrive and five games, one who bought a load of random retro stuff and one who bought Secret of Mana for the SNES.
Best bit about being a 'girl gamer' though has to be working with loads of cool guys and being the only girl XD |

Well...I guess it's not a rarity anymore to see a girl gamer...but skilled...well then again I guess that's the same for guys though...so it's either or on the spectrum.
My first girlfriend did know how to do Kirby's Avalanche really well though...until I decided to put on the speed.  |

...Oh I'd use mine to buy them.
But at the same time, they'd obviously have to be games we'd both like.  And given how I don't have a girlfriend... yeah. That plan goes out the window. |

My girlfriend's a girl gamer, but I don't and will not use her to buy video games.
But, yeah they do exist. |

Aw.
Eh... here it's EB or Future Shop really. Then you have the other smaller stores which do tend to price-gouge at times. |

Used to. I left when I went to college, and although I did work over winter break, they didn't have any openings this summer. But the store is awesome, and especially with the people I worked with. |

Not around here, I saw about ten copies of it at EB today when I went to the mall. Must be more Megaman fans where you are. I'd like to buy it myself, but I just don't have the money, time to play it, and I just got a pair of new GC games anyway (SF Adventures and Viewtiful Joe). |

Gaming for me is at the mall. There are about 6 electronics stores there that sell games and computers and stuff. And if all else fails, I go to Wal mart or Bestbuy or another store...
Though Ive been having a hard time finding Megaman Anniversary collection... and Ive checked all of those places.  Popular game that is. |

Heh that's off the hook . I haven't went into a gaming botique and actually bought anything. I just go to regular department stores. I rarely get money for games so maybe that's why..being a female gaming is a good thing though |

Ooh, I do that all of the time. Whenever I see someone with a GameBoy of any kind, I get so nosy. I can't help but lean back, look over, whatever it takes to get a glimpse at what game they're playing. (I've always been able to identify the games too!) |

Yeah... When you're talking to a girl, her eyes are on her HEAD.
I saw another girl at Concordia yesterday playing a GBA while waiting for a movie... Couldn't get into position to see what she was playing though. Always interesting to see. |

Pretty ironic, isn't it. Anyway, we all know that even if what the guy said was true, he still was looking at something else than what he said.
It seems to be a constant problem for her...
Oh, in other news, speaking of gaming stores, I just got an application for Gamestop, myself. Here's to hoping it goes through! |

"hey, you know... they may come out with a nightmare before christmas game soon..." and his eyes went straight back to their initial position... Xo
~texx~
BEST.EXCUSE.EVER! Well...not really. At least, he said something from what I would've said, |

Yeah... There's boxes upon boxes of used systems at our EB, but I've never taken the plunge.  |
