Rugrats PSX was featured in advertising circulars on Thursday from Best Buy and K-Mart. K-Mart also showcased Bug's Life Gameboy. I expect more Rugrats PSX (and Bug's Life Gameboy) in the Sunday paper circulars.

Here's another encouraging channel check from one of the best on the MF board:

I went back to the stores today to get a feel how fast things are moving
and I am glad I did.I did not count exactly how many Rugrats TRU had
yesterday but I would estimate about 24(3 rows of appr.8) and they are
now sold out.Spoke to one of the salesladies and she said plenty more
coming in today and placed another order today to get more in on
saturday.To me that is impressive.This is not a weekend here-this is
Thursday to Friday.By eye count
I would say plenty of Revenge sold in those 24 hours also.
At Software Etc -4 Nitro's were sold.3 just this morning(store opens at
10:00 and I was there at 12:00).Salesman also says he sold 2 RR and 4
Revenge just today.

The November TRSTS and PC Data rankings are going to be pretty interesting. Revenge should be top-five, if not number one and Rugrats might have a chance at top ten. Both should score very high in December as well. Bug's will probably be top five Gameboy, behind Pokemon, et al. It will be interesting to see how many copies of WCW PC the mass merchandisers get. Probably the key to the success of the title.
