I'm Very Dissapointed With The Glasgow Event. You Couldnt Download Mew Due To Techinical Difficulties. They Didnt Test The Connections Before. People From Aberdeen ( Which Was About 150-200 Miles Away ) Came And Found Out They Couldnt Get Mew! Im Going To Complain To Nintendo And I Am Expecting Them To Do Something About It. The Goodie Bags Were Rubbish Aswell...
P.S They Only Brung 1 Link Cable! I Personally Think That Was The Problem.
Please Discuss.

Well, that's disappointing. I'd expect Nintendo to be more well-organized.

I Wouldnt Recomend Going To The Events. Its Not As Good As You Expect. All It Is, Is A Tent In A Car Park.

they should have been more organised- it was a total waste of time for everyone. 1 guy in the queue in front of me said that the same thing happened at 1 of the events he's been to before this 1- you'd think nintendo would learn from their mistakes! and i agree with chorusco- the goodie bags were rubbish, i didn't even get a keyring or the little figure or whatever it was 'cause they run out before i went to get a bag. all i got was stickers and a poster. not happy! :(

Yeah I Didnt Get Keirings Or Anything Either.
Apparantelly We Might Have To Send Our Games To Nintendo To Get It.

send our games to nintendo? is that the "compensation" they were talking about that you had to put your email address down for? sounds a bit dodgy to me- what if you don't get your game back?! like it gets lost in the post or something!...

They Took Your Email For A Que Jump. Say If You Went Away Then When You Came Back They Fixed It And There Was A Long Que. If You Confirmed Your Email Adress You Would Go Get Mew First.
They Might Send Us Info Aswell...

The Thing That Annoyed Me That I Travelled 60 Miles Or 70 And My Dad Payed £56.
Imagine Being Those Aberdeen People. Travelling 150-200 Miles ( About £200 ) That Would Cost From There To Get Nothing....
 
o_O Wow, that definitely sucks for anyone who did go. Looks like someone messed up..

what about pokemon battle revolution it was suposed to be playable at the event was that there?

Wow, definately not cool. Trouble is, this may put people off going to events in the future to obtain Shaymin or Arceus. They'd better sort their acts out before then, and one link cable? I can see three now, and I'm far from working for Nintendo. They could've borrowed mine.

One link cable? At the 10thAnniv tour they had 4 people with an SP and a cable EACH.

I went to the event and I was further away from Aberdeen. Cost £62 overall. I was disapointed that I couldn't get Mew but I did get the chance to battle with my new eevee team, no one has the game in Macduff battling others is a big deal for me. xD

I didnt know it was their link cable that wasn't working. =/ I agree, nintendo should have brought spares.

Dont worry

I have sent my games to Nintendo in 3 seperate occasions for various rare pokemon (the last one I got was Deoxy's) and each time, I was happy with the service I got. They do take care of your things. If you are worried though maybe put all your pokemon except 1 onto pokemon box (if you have it) before posting it. I was at the Glasgow event, and it was me who mentioned to the organisers that this was the common procedure for event pokemon in UK,so thats probably how the rumour started (although I find it likely that this will be the case, with Nintendo emailing you the address to post the game too).

^ yeah, that's all it is people! i was really surprised when i got there and there was nothing but a tent and a little sign that said what it was for. nothing particularly special or amazing or anything. you would've thought nintendo and toys r us would have made a bit bigger deal of it.

THAT'S ALL?! NINTENDO IN A TENT IN A CARPARK?! I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AT LEAST BE IN A SHOPPING MALL OR HOLDING THE CARNIVAL IN A PARK.

IT IS A TOTAL DISGRACE;201-!;

Those people probably thought a only few people will like Mew with the DP events compared to it.;151;
