Someone has uploaded a pic of an apparent promotional campaign that a video game store is running which allows users to receive a free game at the Wii's launch if they register for their pre-order offer. The question is, who is this masked stranger offering this...

I just received this picture, and I am not sure where it is from yet…but I will update the story once I hear back. I just talked with the guys at GameStop today, and they are not taking reserves on the Wii yet, and won’t be for quite some time. That is how it looks as of right now anyway. Any of you have an idea where this is?!

In Australia the Toy'sRus got that same deal with Wii & PS3! Free game when you do a pre-order now.

Could just be a gimmick as I thought all Wii's are coming pre-packaged with the new Zelda anyhow.

That would be a Toys 'R Us as you can tell by the Yellow 'R' in the Blue Star ( www.toysrus.com ) ans they use the 'Take a Ticket' System in a lot of their store. There is one in the upper left of the picture.

Not sure if this is state side or as another poster stated an Australian thing. (Just found out it is) Hope this hits state side as well.

EDIT:
Found this as well -
