9 months agoIt would be insane to take them out completely they are an introvert’s dream and most people prefer them for smaller shopping trips. Now if every store went to the scan and go model then I would be okay with them being gone. Scan items as you shop and then pay from your phone. The only interaction is an employee at the door just quick checking your receipt by scanning a few of the items. It’s glorious.
I have 4 WaveBirds. I had just started my first job in HS when the GC came out and my friends and I became obsessed with Phantasy Star Online. So being a HS student with nothing really important to spend my paychecks on, I ended up with 4 WaveBirds and the broadband adapter. I almost bought the keyboard controller even. We stopped playing PSO before I did buy it unfortunately but I did later use the broadband adapter and PSO to stream pirated games to my GC though so that was fun.
