For example, highly wishlisted games appear in the “Popular Upcoming” section, along with some other spots. This increased visibility before launch then feeds into the two points you made. I believe games that are highly wishlisted before launch are also more likely to appear on the frontpage right after launch.
It depends on the place and the cop that is present, but jaywalking isn’t often enforced. It’s a law to try to protect people from crossing the street and getting injured by cars that may not see them crossing. Instead of crossing anywhere, they are supposed to cross at a specific area where cars already are supposed to stop. Since jaywalking is against the law (even if it isn’t enforced well), it will stop some people from crossing the street in the middle of a road, and it may save a few lives. It’s kinda dumb, but if it helps a few people, I have no problem with it.
