Talladega Mom Buys Nintendo 3DS, Gets A Box Full Of Rocks

Scam artists worked to ruin Christmas this year for one Talladega boy.
The boy's mom bought her son a Nintendo gaming system but when the boy opened the box there was no Nintendo. Instead the box was full of rocks wrapped in tissue paper.

Tbh It wouldn't make a difference to me, my 3DS pretty much acts as a bunch of rocks since I got my vita.

I bet the kid is jealous of the other kid with porn on his 3DS.

Bet it still loads apps faster than wiiU.

More like the store we shop at, Walmart is filled with trashy employees so its no surprise the majority of these incidents happens with them.

That said, anyone that buys something worth more than $100 and doesn't check if the seals are broken is about as smart as a box of rocks.

How do we know she didnt put rocks in it and when she returned it said "hey my son opened this and it was rocks you ruined xmas for a lil boy." Then walk out with another 3DS... Hmmmm pray tell?

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
