Strange.
I'm not sure that makes sense. A release date is an agreement between the supplying game maker and the store chain... so the gov't would not be handing out 10,000 fines as it's none of their concern/business. And even if the maker of Doom somehow sued Best Buy over it, I doubt it would be a 10,000 per copy fine. That would easily amount to over half a million dollars.
