For me, it was The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. I still remember my crappy-ass PC trying to chug through the bug-ridden, non-patched game installed directly from the CD.

Goodtimes...

LBP, which I pre-ordered for the custom skins. Quickly regretted it because I could have waited and bought the GOTY ed for $30 with all of those skins and more.

Otherwise the core Pokemon games I usually pre-order but I get them $5 off so it's not full price. They're pretty much the only games I bother getting around launch. In general, I have a massive backlog and prefer to wait for price drops.

If the Gamer's Club discount doesn't count as "not full price," then Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology earlier this year.

If it does disqualify RH, then I guess Breath of the Wild for Wii U. There was rumor that Nintendo was only doing the one print run, in the hopes of forcing Wii U owners who missed out to move onto the Switch, and I made a panic decision. Not proud of that...

Alternate question, if anyone can remember, what was the first game you ever bought on launch day?

I remember getting Battlefront II (the original) the day it came out.

The first one I can remember pre-ordering is Majora's Mask, since I wanted the shiny gold cart (which ended up not being limited edition, but meh), and I think that'd be it.

I want to say Pokemon Sapphire. Though, I that may actually have been a couple days after release. It may have been one of the other games from that generation though. The first game I know for sure I got on release was Pokemon Pearl.

I've never bought games on launch day, most of the time they're a few months to a few years old. But 2 of them I did buy at full retail price I think. I'd rather wait a while for the price to go down.

To be honest, I'm not sure I've ever bought a game on launch day.

Technically, I assume Final Fantasy VII would count because I pre-ordered it. But I only did that because Kay-Bee was offering a bunch of free stuff along with it. But if I remember correctly, I didn't even pick that up on literal launch day, as much as a few days later.

Why? It's a really good game.

Or were you just annoyed that they delayed multiplayer for a couple weeks to force people to play single-player, and then delayed heists for years because they were too lazy to finish them in time?

I was annoyed by it being released to next gen consoles too, but what actually bothered me was the bad driving, sub par story and rehashed weapons (that got ramped up to 11 with online DLC).

Have you tried to drift in GTA V? You slide for about a mile with no turning control at all then when you get grip back you realise the power does not come at all until you're nearly stopped so you have to roll out of the drift. But don't worry, that garbage is disabled if you do unrealistically quick donuts and then you lose all rear end grip until you let off the power and let it roll out again.

I think it was Pokemon Ultra Sun for Nintendo 3DS. That was a disappointment. Not because the game is bad (because it's not) but because the way they described it in early Nintendo Direct videos made me believe the story was going to have huge changes. As in something happens that leads you to take a completely different path than you did in Sun/Moon. When I got it, I realized it was nothing more than this generation's Yellow version. Or at least it is up to where I stopped playing. I just couldn't bring myself to finish the thing because I did most of this stuff too recently in Sun.

I've since been avoiding playing main Pokemon games new and old so that I don't get burned out before the Switch game comes out (not that Let's Go game).

Resident Evil 4 for GC. Left school early to go pick it up and play it at my friend's house.

Alternate question: I want to say Mario Kart 64, but it may have been a game on the SNES that I don't remember.

Must have been ages, most games like that I pre-ordered, usually with some kind of discount (as in, not the full "advice price"), and then had it delivered 1 or a few more days before the release date.
