Will AAP 40 be available in stores?

[Guest]

@molinar13:

Ya i would agree after all AA 42 is only $29.99. Well guess i better pre-order it i do not wanna risk this game being a limited edition deal.

I think that would be a wise move indeed.

[molinar13]

You would think that as long as these games have been out they would’ve tried advertising by now.

Did you forget that we are dealing with those chimps at WOTC?

The apes in accounting don’t think that advertising will offset the costs incurred, thus allowing less money at the end of the day for bananas.

And then they would all have to answer to the CEO Big Gorilla.

are you kidding, i saw a $25 game of UNO there!  For a game called ‘1’ that’s highway robbery!! :-D  :wink:

What do you think the price of a game with the number 40 will be? :-D

oh no, it’s worse than that, it has 1940 on the actual box…

$19.40 isn’t that bad, that’s Target price!  :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Wouldn’t that be nice!

that’s the version with no paper money and refreshed cardboard counters for pieces.  make sure and pre-order the normal version.

And don’t forget the new folding paper map board!

Recently I have seen AA40 at stores like target, toys ur us, and walmart. Does this mean WOTC is starting to market AA games in common stores? Does this mean we can find AAP40 and AAE40 in these stores as well?

[johnnymarr]

my guess is no.  my bet is it will only be found at specialty shops much like AA50.  stores such as Walmart, Target, etc. dont normally carry boardgames that cost more than $50.  AA42 is pretty cheap compared to the more expensive AA50, AAP40, and AAE40

[molinar13]

That true. It would be nice for a change though. I have already pre-ordered my version, but I know alot of AA fans who dont even know that a AA40 will be coming out this December.

Its bad marketing thats for sure. How can you make sure non hardcore customers buy the product if they dont even know about it? of course WE know we are hardcore, but what about everyone else?

[johnnymarr]

It’s not even bad marketing. It’s NO marketing. At this point I’d take bad marketing. At least there would be an effort.

[Guest]

I guess they are relying on word of mouth advertising. So it is our job and if we fail then they will stop releasing more product.

[molinar13]

I guess so. By the time my friends and I found out about AA50 it was already $200 on ebay. Forget that!!

[idk_iam_swiss]

I told people in my history club at school about the new pacific game. Does word of mouth advertising work though?

[molinar13]

It can I mean the only effective method I see is actually going on the internet and finding websites like this one for yourself.

[Guest]

It better be effective as it is the only advertisement the game will get.
