This Day in Gaming, November 4th

1999: Warner Bros is forced to shut down their phone lines after offering a chance to win free tickets to the Pokemon movie. They were receiving 70,000 calls a minute, which our scientific analysis pegs at "a lot".

2004: Inc. Magazine announces Alienware as the 131st fastest growing company. They did grow fast - so fast that they are now the biggest PC manufacturer called Dell.

2004: Nintendo releases The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap for GBA in Japan. Using the magical hat, Link can shrink down to kick microscopic bootie. Ok...maybe not microscopic...more like Honey I Shrunk the Kids without the huge oatmeal pie bootie.
