Has anyone seen this color Players Choice before?
I never saw it until last night and could not figure out for the life of me why it was the color.
I have only seen the yellow. I wanted to buy this soley for the odd coloring but decided not to... yet.

Yeah, I haven't seen them before either. Maybe it's something new, kinda like how some of Nintendo's million sellers like Smash Bro. have the "Best Seller" on it instead of the Player's Choice knowadays.

Maybe it was part of one of those double packs? You know, like the super monkey ball one.

It is odd. As best as I can tell Circuit City only has stores in the United States, and doesn't ship to locations outside of the US through their online store.

Yeah, it is.


You should go buy one and find out... if it's truly that PAL version, then there should be an age rating in the bottom-left-hand corner.

Dude, that's the PAL version.

That's what I was thinking.

Man, PAL Player's Choice inserts look much better than they do in the US.

Maybe someone bought it online or whatever, Found it didn't work on their system so they returned it to Circuit City and walaa....???


Probably not since I believe they scan them on returns...Unless the barcode's are the same?....I don't think so.

D'oh. How dumb can some people be! Lol! PAL version!!! Der!

Our Warioware came in yellow though, which seemed unusual to us - But it was only a budget priced game.


All our Player's Choice games are silver - Probably because the PS2 one's also come in the same colour (Platinum)


But, feel free to buy our crappy Player's Choice versions for the odd colouring if you like! The less we have here the better!

I still can't understand how that image got up on a US site for a company that only exists in the US.
Anyone going to pick up a copy?
I don't have any $$ left on my gift cards and i don't have a credit card.
If i knew their return policy i would have bought it before.

Okay hold on hold on hold on hold on...

I thought you had said you saw it in a STORE (that was the general assumption), but you just saw it on the website? O_O

It's just an oversight. You won't get the PAL version if you order it from the website. They just used some stock photo that was handy and slapped it up there. It's just like when you pick up a flier from Gamestop and they're still using that old image of the Super Smash Bros box that only has Mario and Bowser on it... in fact, the CC website has that (http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Super-Smash-Bros--Melee--GameCube--/sem/rpsm/oid/58101/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do) image too!
