Andrew,

Not too shabby but nobody reads the Street.com - since Cramer is just a regular/weekly guest on CNBC <g>.

This should bring people to focus on THQ for a few days.

BTW, up here in the chilly north - eh? - Walmart has a (regional/national?) flyer that they just sent out. Three of the nineteen 'feature games' in the flyer are from THQ: - WCW/NWO Revenge - $C 94.97, Rugrats - $C 69.97 and 'A bug's Life' - $C 49.97 - and these games are selling like there is no tomorrow.

As an aside, Zelda - for Nintendo - is sold out almost everywhere and there are long lists to get on the next distribution. Example: Walmart received 300 copies of Zelda on Thursday afternoon and by Friday at 2:00 P.M. they only had 15 copies left. As a result, people are turning to their second and third choices and THQ's wrestling game appears to be the main beneficiary.

Last year there were hardly any THQ games on the shelves up here in Canada - at least in Ottawa - and ergo, no sales of any consequence. This year is a very different story.
