Awesome!
I'm a bit far to regularly visit, but I'm psyched to hear that you're getting back on your feet, so to speak. Maybe if you have a second con with a bit more, um, legal financial backing. ;)
Either way, though, this is great news. _________________

YYEEESSSS!!!!! Jaime this is amazing. Congratulations to you guys! I'm sure it took a lot of work to get this all off the ground. If you can open before I go back to college in January I will most certainly be there for the grand opening! I'm sure my bandmates will be thrilled to hear this. _________________

YES YES YES YES!!!!!!! SO PUMPED RIGHT NOW!!!
Everything about this is awesome, especially your location! I'm at Bentley and when I have my car on campus, it's a 15 minute drive to get there! And if for some reason I don't have my car, I just hop on my school's shuttle into Harvard Square, then take the T into Davis Station, then a 5 minute walk to the store!
I must say I have very high hopes for this after all the epic times at GU. You guys sell games for less, buy ours for more, have a shitload of awesome TVs to play on, hold some of the best tournaments around for a ton of different games, and your collection of games, from NES all the way to this generation, just can't be beaten. I honestly laugh out loud when people talk about how "awesome" place like Gamestop are (which is a complete lie ). Not to mention Jamie is the fucking man and all . Definitely the coolest store owner I've ever met. Can't wait to see what the store looks like! Assuming you guys don't open during my winter break (which unfortunately might happen since I'm off from mid December until late January), but if I don't make it the first day then I'll definitely be there soon after.
I guess my only question is whether or not the old GU staff will be work at Game Underground (which I guess is now the new GU ). The store just wouldn't be the same without Collin, Ben, etc. <3 _________________

YAAAYYY!!!! I knew you guys were too awesome to go out like that.
I'm super-excited to hear that you guys will be back up and running soon. AND you'll be even closer to me now which makes it a no-brainer to go shopping there for all my gaming needs (seeya later Best Buy!)
Good luck and have fun putting the new digs together. _________________

An extra 20-30 minute drive to get there, but it doesn't matter. Awesome news! I plan to be there on opening day. _________________

Thank you so much for all your support! RB was the one tournament that I was actually able to compete in (Thanks Ben, Steve, Colin) and I'm so happy you guys are excited!
It's awesome that Brock and Bri are closer to us now!!!!
I'm also psyched to hear that Hellashes and Tobias are still willing to come out!!!!!
As of right now I am the only former GU employee OFFICIALLY working for the new store. I'm sure Colin and Ben will come out for tournaments and to hang out as much as they can though!!!
Dan and Blinky will be running tournaments for other games as well! |

Okay, so I don't know what Game Universe was, but I live in Brighton so that's pretty cool. I'll try to come by sometime and see whats up, especially if there's any kind of RB tournament _________________
I'm back I suppose |

You missed out on some mighty good times my friend. I have a feeling this place is going to be awesome as well.
Jamie, any idea on when the exact opening date will be? Some of us have work over the winter break and need to give our managers some notice. Do you at least know if it will be December or January? I'm seriously so pumped for this. Since I'm close to the store now I'll probably head down to a smash tournament or halo or something just to get my ass kicked . Should be fun. _________________
