I was thinking if we could get a DS Australia url, (like a .com or a .net url), and if someone with the skills (photoshop wise) could make a printable flyer, then we could let our current members print them out and runaround to all of the various games places (EB and your local games shop) and ask them to put them up in the shops' window (like they do with rave posters and music events and such), this would be a GREAT leap for advertising for this website! I was also thinking that when users signup, you should have a question where/how they found out about this website to see how the advertising campaign went. This would be a great Idea as I have mate who work in all of the game shops in the NT and I was chatting to my mate Brett who saiid that they've already taken 150 pre-orders for it. Maybe we could put out a flyer that they could have on the counter so that when game-hungy DSers come back for the purchase of their 2nd game they'll see it and they'll go "hmm...I might check this out next time I'm on the internet". This' just a thought. Please don't flame me, but any publicity is good publicity....right? -Papa :blink:
