Last week, Anel Mujkanovic walked into a Target store in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. He then “took a handicap electric cart and drove around the store coming to a stop in the electronics aisle. After removing one set of urine soaked pants he exposed himself and began to urinate on video games and accessories.”
Fallout 4 Nuka Cola Quantum returns to Target next week! After rapidly selling out last month, the post-apocalyptic beverage is getting an encore release. Target employees and their scalper friends can buy it, or get it free with purchase of Fallout 4 or an Xbox season pass purchase.

Before Monday, André Weingarten figured he was out of luck. A devoted Xbox user from day one—he replaced two red-ringed 360s—Weingarten didn't have a preorder down for the newest console.

Last Friday, we reported that Target was canceling PlayStation 4 preorders that had been bundled with delayed games like Watch Dogs and Driveclub.

On December 13 a pair of shoplifters made off with a load of DVDs and video games from a Wisconsin Target store.

Prepping for the upcoming March 27 launch of the 3DS, Target reminds Kotaku that they now accept DS, DS Lite, DSi and DSXL as trade-ins for store credit at some stores. Current values are: DS - $20, DS Lite - $30, DSi - $45, DSXL - $60. Not bad for essentially cash. But GameStop is running a better deal for 3DS credit…
Target talked about sprucing up the video game section of their stores way back in May, but I haven't seen any sign of that at my local brand-spanking-new, Super Target until this weekend, when this video panel popped up.
After telling you about Best Buy's new trade-in program this morning, Target dropped us a line to let us know that their new electronics trade-in program will handle game trade-ins as well. Is anyone not offering game trade-ins?
Ninja Monkey and Sexy Robot? Those two word combinations alone are enough to get many onboard for Namco Bandai's Enslaved: Odyssey to the West when it ships this September, but which power-granting outfits you get depends on where you preorder.
