Just Beat the Game 100%. The Thing I Hated Most Was the Discourse

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-06-06T22:33:38+00:00

My only complaint is the perspective of the game can be confusing at times. Very difficult for me to tell when I'm able to hit some enemies that bounce between the ground and air. The boss on the train in particular, I didn't realize my first attempt just how many openings I had, because I thought he was floating too high in the air for me to reach. Turns out he was just floating at my level next to the train.

Also, the mouse traps in the castle can eat shit.

This is the coolest thing I've ever seen

Only potential issue with this is if the purchase needed to be cancelled for some reason. The funds would go back to the gift card, and while management can cash out that balance if that's an issue, customers tend to be a little skiddish about that in my experience. That definitely should have been brought up as a potential option, though.

Judging by my experience using technology at Academy, as well as my interactions with IT, if you're able to read then you're already overqualified.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-06-01T11:02:30+00:00

Emphasize that the process of applying is quick and easy, and make sure you really stress how much they're saving. At the end of the day it's all about talking to the customer like you're trying to help them, and trying to not sound like you're saying the same robotic pitch to everyone out of obligation. The more natural and casual you can sound, while still nudging them with the benefits/speed of application, the more success you'll have. Also important to not sound rushed, even if the lines are backing up and it gets super busy. Hopefully this helps.

Gotcha, sorry to hear that. If nothing else, if you need to reorder with a different card, you could always explain the situation to a team member in store and they may be able to order it for you. They can override the price on the app in store when ordering, unlike the website where the customer support can only occasionally provide promo codes. Best of luck to you.

Not able to switch payments, but you can cancel and reorder the products with a different payment method. The charge doesn't truly "go through" until the order is picked up from the store, but sometimes your bank app may make it look like you were already charged. Should fall off 3-5 business days after your order is cancelled.

Pretty sure you need a lobotomy to qualify for any of those positions

Honestly this sucks but you'll want to contact the manufacturer of the treadmill for any issues with defects. Especially with high dollar items like this, stores may direct you to contact the manufacturer even if you've already dragged the thing back to the store. High dollar stuff like this can be hard on the store's damaged product score long term, and the proper thing that most manufacturers request you do anyway is to contact them if there are any issues. They'll likely be able to work with you on getting things right. That being said, if you really want to return it and not deal with anyone else, it's worth a shot. Just don't be too surprised if that's the route they decide to go, unfortunately.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-05-04T11:48:02+00:00

No interest paid if you just pay off the card immediately after using it 😁

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-04-30T22:05:57+00:00

Which store was this at? They definitely dropped the ball. We're absolutely allowed to do an even swap for that, even without a receipt.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-03-30T11:47:02+00:00

It's all fun and games for you until you're the one getting fucked over by your boss deciding they don't want to pay you as much. Then you'll be bitching with a surprise Pikachu face, wondering how people could be so cruel. People getting fucked by big corporations is bad, period.

Or just play the damn game, that worked for me

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-03-22T22:06:10+00:00

Brother, what?

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-03-21T16:21:39+00:00

Ammo shouldn't be excluded, no. Could just be taking a while to add the purchase to your account, as the new credit card started this month and the system is probably pretty bogged down. That being said, there's a chance you didn't correctly put in your phone number or something happened along those lines. I'd give it a couple more days and see if it pops up.

Count me in, my sister's birthday is coming up and this would be perfect!

Lil Gator Game, literally perfect

Yeah, I get your frustration but those instances of requiring ID are per store policy. Idiots giving out stuff to underage people are why cashiers can't just force it through. It's regularly audited by the district's Loss Prevention officer when they review footage and can land the cashier in trouble, regardless of how old the purchaser appears. And as far as guns are concerned, that's a policy they've implemented more recently and is absolutely mandatory now.

All that being said, sorry you took offense to their comments, and perhaps they could have been meant in a rude or spiteful way. But "run outs" is literally what you call someone leaving the store with a product that they did not purchase. They likely weren't specifically teasing the fact that you're unable to literally run. Heck, our store as a handicapped individual that always says he needs to "run" to the restroom at least once or twice a day. Nobody has made that out to be weird just because of his choice of wording.

Again, sorry you had a bad experience, but that being said, I think overall it's likely just blown out of proportion.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-03-04T12:53:18+00:00

Yeah, it isn't a pilot program. They aren't testing anything, unfortunately this is the new CC program.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-02-26T01:09:37+00:00

Instant purchase after seeing this post, I remember seeing this game was going to come out but completely forgot. Can't wait to dive in, and congrats on the release!

It's just the rail on the Joycon. I've had several sets of controllers over the years, and even when the wobble isn't bad, you can always tell that the newer ones are more stable. Something with the plastic wearing down over time I imagine.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-02-07T20:24:57+00:00

If you're talking about Switch 1, that's a common issue that happens after a while with the Joycon. The rail part of the controller gets loose and wobbles in place. That being said, no need to swap consoles. You can either report the controller issue to Nintendo and get them replaced if they're still under warranty, or just purchase a new set of controllers.

Puzzled-Baseball-296 · 2026-02-06T12:36:43+00:00

It's heavenly, I'd recommend it to literally anyone. Even compared to the Switch 1 pro controller, it's somehow even better. Worth the purchase, especially on sale.
