Title: Amazing Deals!
Post by: joeamis on May 21, 2003, 02:17:00 PM
first deal: $14.99 for Metroid Prime PLUS an additional 25% off right now at Blockbuster $24.99 for Starfox Adventures PLUS an additional 25% off right now at Blockbuster
2nd deal: Gamestop... if you get the magazine Game Informer there are coupons for 1. an additional 10% bonus to games you sell to them
and 2. an additional 10% off used games (that's in addition to the 10% you get with a Gamestop card!)
NOTE: you must have a Gamestop card to use the coupons....
I picked up Ikaruga today from Gamestop for a mere $30.05, that was after I found it used for $34.99 and the 10% off coupon and the 10% off Gamestop card
EDIT: Gamestop also had Wipeout Fusion NEW for $9.99 and Haven: Call of the King NEW (a sleeper hit) for $9.99!

Block Buster is also selling RE0 new for $20.
EB has a similar % as gamespot except it's with GMR ($10 for $10 issues+you get the %10 off used games).

Metroid Prime should cost more than SFA. . . it's much better. . . (SFA is good, but not as good as MP)

True, but Blockbuster adjusts its prices based on different parameters.
for one, you can find the same game at Blockbuster with two different prices why? well because they adjust their prices based on the condition of the game... so most likely that copy of Metroid Prime I saw, probably has some scratches on the disc Most likely nothing that will stop the game from working, but you probably will either have money taken off if you tried to sell it to say Gamespot or they might not buy it back at all... another thing they base their prices on at blockbuster is the amount of games in stock and how long it's been since a game has not sold

Actually Block Buster is selling Brand new factory sealed Metroid Prime for $20 as well.
Mech Assault for the Xbox is $20, and Ratchet and Clank for the PS2 for $20.
So $15 for a used game would sound right :0.

I picked up the Harry Potter GC game yesterday brand new for $9.99 off Walmart.com. I'm not a HP fan (haven't even seen the movies) but it has reviewed favorably. IGN gave it an 8.9.

Quote what's GMR?
GMR is pretty much the EB-equivalent of GameStop's Game Informer. $10 for 10 month subscription and 10 months of 10% off preowned stuff. The magazine is produced by Ziff-Davis, the people who make EGM and CGW (see a trend in acronyms?). Actually, though popular belief states that it's pronounced "gamer," the E3insider site says its actually stupidly pronounced "jee-em-arr." Lame. Anyway, as for actual magazine content, I'd give my nod to GI, especially for the toys and stuff the have at the end of the magazine.

Super Monkey Ball 2 can be had for $29.99 brand-new at Gamestop. I'm waiting until it hits the $19.99 bin and then I'm snatching it up.
I'm still looking for Ikaruga cheap...I'm trying to get it for $30 or less on eBay but it's a battle. Somebody always has to raise the price over $30. It's OK, I'm in no hurry.
These days, the way games drop in price, I refuse to pay $49.99 for any game unless I absolutely have to have it. I'm still amazed that I bought Eternal Darkness for $19.99 at Gamestop...that's a farce. I'd pay $99.99 for that game.
Alright, I wouldn't, but it sounded good.

nod nod. sometimes it really pisses me off. where I live (Trinidad), I have to pay $75-110 US equivalent for my games, regardless if they are old or not.
Example, I had to pay $98.00 US equivalent for windwaker. (I don't have a cc which I can use to take advantage of net deals - i'm only 21)
This is the only reason that sometimes I regret not getting an xbox and modifying it, games are just too expensive here.

Hello all:
Two decent deals I saw recently (if you think the games are decent that is):
1. Target has Crash Wrath of Cortex for $13. I saw it in the front where they usually have bargain DVDs by the front registers. They asl had a PS2 and two Xbox titles as well at that price. Most of the titles struck me as sucky, but for $13 . . .
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Husker02GT on June 09, 2003, 12:31:59 PM
Target also had NBA Street Volume 2 for $37.88 not bad considering it came out little over a month ago

The IGN store is having Eternal Darkness for $15 along with its campaign =P
Target is the only store to sell Sonic Pinball Party, yeah, this should be in the GBA discussion, but so what? They sometimes have it for $27 if your lucky.
Both Resident Evil 0 and 1 are on sale for $30 at Target.

Post by: MagicToenail on June 17, 2003, 05:38:24 PM
oh yeah, those are good deals, but i was at best buy the other day picking up wario ware and i passed a stand of strategy guides. Half of them were selling far a penny! No catches, you didnt have to sign up for anything, they were juts being getten rid of. The only guide i can remember was Eternal Darkness. But there was alot of other good guides too. But some jerk before me (i would've done it too...) took every last one of the guides for only pennies, the clerk told me.
I picked up metroid prime at blockbuster for 20 too like you guys, i almost payed 50$ for it at K-Mart.
Title: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Ymeegod on June 17, 2003, 05:57:59 PM
Yeah,
Best Buy gets rid of it's guides after only a few months (usually 3) except for a few (ones that are still selling :0 ).
I've seen guides like LoTR TTT, Spiderman, ect (mostly all action) go for a Penny apeice.

Best Buy sucks now when it comes to Cube games, either they're trying to screw themselves or Timmy at price regulations is too depressed with his failed date to eliminate the competition.
Super Monkey Ball Jr. for the GBA is for $20 at Target.
Title: Amazing Deals!
Post by: joeamis on June 19, 2003, 09:39:04 PM
more deals I saw today: (at Gamestop retail store) use your Gamestop card for these titles and get 10% off
Metal Gear Solid 2 $12.99 used Ico $14.99 used Neverwinter Nights $29.99 new, also that price at bestbuy too Onimusha $9.99 used
and finally for GAMECUBE I picked this up today: Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 $24.99 used * 10% off * 6% sales tax = $23.84
I know NFSHP2 is better on PS2 than it's GC and Xbox versions due to it having no slow down in that version, but because I am committed to Nintendo I purchased the GC version

Here's some preorder deals at dvdsoon.com. It is a Canadian site but ships to the U.S. and will convert to U.S. funds on the site. I have gamestop.com's price in parenthesis. PN03 (they have it spelled as PN 0.3 so if you are running a search, that's how you should type it) $31.56 ($49.99) Italian Job $33.82 ($49.99) Viewtiful Joe $31.56 ($39.99) Mission Impossible 2: Operation Surma $31.56 ($39.99) http://www.dvdsoon.com/games/searchengineresults.xml?name=platform&platform=CUBE
You can also preorder P.N.03, Mega Man and Viewtiful Joe direct from capcom.com and get a free t-shirt with each game. They also have free shipping on orders over $40. http://www.capcom.com/e32003/menu.html

But if you convert their price to U.S., it's over $53 for Skies of Arcadia. Some prices at this place are extremely good, like Viewtiful Joe, PN03 and Italian Job, but horrible for other games.

Post by: mattcube6412 on June 27, 2003, 07:45:06 PM
Well, here are some deals I've recently found...
I have found Gamecube strategy guides at a closing K-Mart store for a cent! They were just sitting on the shelf, and I asked the clerk about the price, and he just said they needed to get rid of 'em, so of course, I bought them all, which ended up being about 30 guides. Well, to your advantage, I figure that any going-out-of-business K-Mart should have these guides.
My Blockbuster has the entire 1st and 2nd series of E-Reader cards for .99 a pack!
Target seems to have cheap games, but in my opinion, they're mostly a pile of crud. I've come upon Scorpion King, Haven (PS2), Frogger, Wreckless, all for $5.99. They also have cheap games for other systems if you're interested.
Best Buy has Tony Hawk 3, SSX Tricky, and Timesplitters 2 all for $14.99. I find it interestiong, though, that the GCN Preview Disc is $39.99, while the PSone demo is a lousy penny. (It's labled $100.00)
Hey, I'm not trying to break the rules here about chatting PS2, just trying to help out fellow gamers- KB Toys has Ninga Assault with the GunCon for $20, it's MSRP is $60!
If anyone cares, I live in Independence, MO, FYI

I went to Target today to look for Medal of Honor but I found that Star Wars Bounty Hunter was 14.99! Of course all the copies were sold out so I asked the guy for a Rain Check. On the reciept it said the EXACT following:
"Use this rain check at any Target store to recieve the advertised price. It may also be used to receive the same percentage off a regular priced substitute item within the same product category."
Basically what it's saying is that I can use this receipt as a sort of coupon. Bounty Hunter had 51% off so the original price was $29.99. So...If I can find a -=GAMECUBE=- game that's $29.99 or lower, I can get it for $14.99.
I REALLY hope you guys understood this because it's a GREAT deal. I got Pikmin for $14.99 and I went back but since you could only do it once I made my girlfriend go in and do the same so I got Luigi's Mansion for $14.99 also. Very good deals for new games.

I saw that the price of LOTR two towers was drasitcally cut. A used copy at software ect/ba-biaches was now 23$ Generally, I think this game is a "renter" but at 23 it might be worth all the replay with the 3 characters.

I can verify the Bounty Hunter deal at Target. I got it for $14.99 in Atlanta on Friday the 11th.
Also, for the PS2 fans, Mark of Kri is $9.99 at Best Buy. A worthy purchase.
A slightly less impressive deal, Advance Wars 2 is down 3 bucks to $26.99 at Best Buy.

I bought the GBA Virtua Tennis a couple weeks ago for $10 and let me say I'm pretty impressed. I'm not a big tennis fan as I didn't even know how to keep score until playing Mario Tennis. But this one is pretty fun too. Not only do you play tennis but there are around 8 mini-games that you play through to increase your skills. Most of these are fun little games in themselves.
If you're looking for a cheap but fun GBA title I'd check it out.

It's value is a lot like getting free 3-day shipping (to be more accurate, paying about $1 for 3-day shipping). So a $39.99 game would come out to $40.98 total, including 3-day shipping option.
Offer ends 7/28.

That's the best price I've found for those 2 games. I guess because their sequals are coming out soon they dropped the price.

Among other deals... $10 mail-in gift voucher w/ preorder of BIlly Hatcher, must be postmarked by 8/15.
$10 off instantly preorder of RE: Code Veronica X or PN03. Valid until 8/3. Super hot deal! This means I need to take a 5+hour roundtrip down to Orlando (my future college locale) just to put down preorder cash.

Resident Evil 0 is now a players choice title. I didnt know it was added until I was at Wal-Mart, and noticed the sticker on it. It probably varies between 19.99 and 29.99. Either way, its a good buy. Scary as hell, and a good one to show off to your X-box or PS2 buddies.

I think it is in-store only. And if no one's mentioned it earlier, I guess it may even be just at EBGames stores and not regular Electronics Boutiques (haven't been to the one at the mall in forever since the EBGames opened up less than a mile from my house).

Hey all, i got another amazing deal for you:
I just purchased Resident Evil 0, Lord of the Rings 2 Towers (GC), and Medal of Honor Frontline (PS2) for a grand total [AFTER TAX] of: $47.68!!!
all were used, but all were in prestine mint condition. how did i get this deal? here's how it works...
Buy two used games at any Gamestop store (which includes funcolands, EB's, Software Etc's, etc) and get one game of equal or lesser value free!
So I bought Resident Evil 0 ($24.99), Lord OTRings2T ($24.99), and got MOH Frontline ($24.99) free. after using my gamestop card, the price went from $50 to $45, and then a 6% sales tax was applied thanks to Connecticut law.
I was really surprised by Lord of the Rings2T, it's better than reviews say. As far as Canadian deals, try Gamestop.com
btw get yourself a copy of Tactics Ogre: the knight of lodis for GBA, it may be hard to find since it's rare and it is my favorite game right now, beating out GC, PS2, PC, and other GBA games.

EB is not part of GameStop.
Do game publishers make any money off used games? or is it just the retailers that do? For the sake of supporting game companies (and acquiring a fresh, unopened/unscratched product), I prefer to buy new copies of games. It's not rare to find discounted games at prices lower than their used counterparts.
(RE Zero is $19.99 at EBgames.com)

oops my bad, EB is not part of Gamestop despite their many similarities
funcoland, babbages, software etc, and planet x are part of gamestop
game publishers do not make money off used games, just retailers. the used games sold from gamestop do not have scratches. by buying used games, you are still supporting game companies despite them not making money directly from such purchases. when gamestop and other stores make money off used games, they acquire more products from the corresponding publishers in the form of new products.

Offer expires Aug. 4. It's a nice deal for those pre-orders you haven't made yet, or that $29.99 copy of Super Monkey Ball 2 you still want but never got (for people like me).

Here's a pricing update for EBgames.com:
Mario Sunshine went back up to $49.99 from $29.99
Eternal Darkness went back up to $29.99 from $19.99
Resident Evil Zero also went up to $29.99 from $19.99
The lesson here: take advantage of deals/discounts while they're still in effect. The above games held their lower prices for several weeks, then suddenly/recently went up without warning.
Oh well, at least they qualify for free shipping mentioned above.

If anyone has one near them, you should really check out Sams Club or BJs Wholesale Club. BJs seems to routinely liquidate their stock of video games (as they get so little new stuff). Right now, the one by me has Enter the Matrix and The Hulk for GC for about $32 each. They also have Mega Man Battle Network 3 Blue and White for $19 each and DKC for $20, both for GBA.
Sams Club seems to be notorious for marking games down, but I got a real steal. They had their last copy of Zelda: Wind Waker for $9.50! I already had one, but I still bought it and traded it in (it was the unsealed floor copy). They also had a last copy of Star Fox Adventures for $7.50, but I didn't think I could do much with it.
Anyway, check those wholesale clubs people!
Title: RE:Amazing Deals!
Post by: joeamis on August 02, 2003, 08:38:00 PM
if i had picked up zelda so cheap, i wouldn't have traded it in, i would've kept it sealed, in my closet until i become an old man and then sell it on ebay as a collectors item lol, but thats just me.
he's right about these wholesale stores, i got xenosaga there for 26.99 back around april there.
unfortunately the wholesale clubs tend to have stock of greatest hits games or cheap below average titles, but if you search well enough often you will find a steal.

Well, unfortunately, the copy of Zelda was the last one, and it was the unwrapped floor copy that used to have a 'display box, see counter' sticker on it. But since it was the last one, they just stuck the disc in and left it unsealed. Oh well, I ended up getting $30 in credit from EB, so that's gonna go towards F-Zero

I recently went to an Academy (Sports store, dont know if its in places other than Texas) amazingly enough, they sell video games. Not a lot, but some. But guess what? They were literally liquidating their games. They have games like Mario Sunshine and Mario Party 4 for $30. And a bunch of $10 games like Dakar 2 and Dr. Muto. Oh yeah, and the GCNs were going for $80.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance is $27.88 at Target. If you bring the flyer from last sunday's paper or this week's papers and show them at Toys r' Us, they will match the price and take off 10% i think, they used to atleast years ago.
Also Gamespot retail stores sometimes mark used special editions of movies under the regular movie price! This takes a keen eye and luck...

For those who don't already have Soul Calibur II, overstock.com has it for only $39.99 ($49.99). If you are a new customer, you should get a pop up for an extra $5 off. Shipping is only $2.95 no matter how much you purchase. http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=526617 They also have Bloodrayne for $15.99 (though some have said their Target stores have it for under $10 IF they have it in-stock-$29.99). http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=375725

EBgames.com still seems to be doing that free one-day shipping deal for XIII for like the 13th year in a row: click
Free 3-day shipping on Prince of Persia: Sands of Time: click
Free 1-day shipping on Freedom Fighters (I don't think this deal will last long) click
Also be aware that Capcom USA ships PREORDERS of their games ahead of the units that get sent to [North American] retail outlets. I received Mega Man Network Transmission about a week before it hit stores (I preordered this MONTHS in advance), and I got P.N. 03 the day before it's official retail ship date meaning i got it 2-4 days before most stores would have it (I preordered this within a month of release). And Capcom likes to include t-shirts and other promo thingies with preorders too (nothing spectacular, but neat in a geeky way). Anyway, there's still time before Viewtiful Joe's release, and Capcom USA is still running that FREE SHIPPING deal for orders of $40.00 or more, and any preorders are automatically given 2-day shipping.
But since Viewtiful Joe is only short 5-cents at $39.95, you might as well add a $3 Mega Man notebook or a $4 P.N. 03 Light Beam (WTF?) from their Merchandise section to satisfy the $40.00 requirement. California residents have to pay tax (dammit). V-Joe Preorder Merchandise

Nintendofangirl, I just got the ad in PDF form and it says it only works on PC and Console games under $20! You said we could get F-Zero, PNO3 etc for 20% off. Is the ad a typo? PLEASE say it is.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: NintendoFanGirl on September 22, 2003, 04:20:23 AM
I think it's a typo. Their website clearly says 20% off video games and it is working for any priced game. Don't know about in-store. If you are going to order more than 1 game, ordering online might be the better choice because you know you're getting the discount and the $5 shipping won't seem so bad.

Why do I even bother. It says that but if you look on their website, they are deducting 20% from ALL games.

Thanks for the links. I just ordered Lord of the Rings: Return of the King for 50 bucks with 2 day air. That saves about 5 bucks from purchasing in-store (sales tax) or online without a discount. Also anyone who buys a lot of games online should sign up for the newsletter of that particular store, they always email you special promotions and discounts.

Activision and ebgames.com are running a promo where you buy 1 Activision game, get a $5 rebate. Buy 2 Activision games, get a $15 rebate (in the form of a gift voucher to be used on a future ebgames purchase). Some of the games also have a free shipping code that can be used too and/or a free t-shirt. Since the rebate doesn't say you have to purchase the games together, purchase them seperately using whatever code that particular game has (since only 1 code can be used per order). This rebate is good from Oct 5 to Nov 15. Reminder, no sales tax in most states!
GameCube True Crime Streets of LA $49.99 with free t-shirt and free 2-day shipping (use code CRIMES) Game out 11-4. http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/233117.asp Tony Hawk Underground $49.99 with free t-shirt and free 2-day shipping (use code THUG) Game out 10-27. http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/235850.asp Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure $39.99 http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/233119.asp Minority Report: Everybody Runs $19.99 http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/225571.asp X2 Wolverine's Revenge $29.99 http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/234343.asp

Deal #3 for today, Oct 10-

Buy THUG for $49.99 http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/235850.asp and get a free THUG t-shirt, free 2-day shipping (code THUG) and a free player's guide (through a $15 rebate gift voucher). http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/ads/rebates/1115-vom.asp Buy TCSOLA for $49.99 http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/233117.asp and get a free t-shirt, free 2-day shipping (code CRIMES) and a free player's guide (through a $15 rebate gift voucher). http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/ads/rebates/1115-vom.asp **Only 1 free player's guide rebate per person and not combinable with the $5 or $15 rebate in my first post of the day.

NintendoFanGirl, I usually scroll past your posts because you put the links text on the same line as the games and prices OR the links are below but right above the other games listed, because it's just very cumbersome to read. if you post the links below each game and price with spaces in between each (game+link) that would be very helpful! please

This is crazy 'cause I ususally just read this thread; I'm not used to actually contributing. I'm kinda nervous. Anyways, I just went to this new store that is affiliated and physically connected to Hollywood Video. Anyways it's not a bad store, their used games aren't very well priced (RE @ GameCrazy=$29ish; RE Gamestop=$14.99) but they did have something that caught my eye. They had Star Fox Adventures and a guide bundled together for $17.98! Exciting no? Oh and they also had some used accessories which was baically a section of used controllers. Just in case you want one for like $5 or $10 off. I didn't notice the prices for those.

Damn those glasses are sweet. I don't know or care if they are for women. I want them. The beanie is awesome too, but it would make more sense to have joe's hat...or helmet.

#2 for today, 11-5
I've posted this before, but I thought it was worthy of another posting. New releases at deepdiscountdvd.com have free shipping, are about $8 off for me since the games are $4 off and no sales tax. Freedom Fighters $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014735 007 Everything or Nothing $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014716 Lord of the Rings: Return of the King $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014686 Medal of Honor Rising Sun $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014709 NBA Live 2004 $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014664 NCAA Football 2004 $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014642 Need for Speed: Underground $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014704 NHL 2004 $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014713 SSX3 $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014712 Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 $45.99 http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=GCX014677
Roadkill with free Roadkill license plate $39.99. Use their $1.99 EB Saver shipping. http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/234519.asp This is what IGN had to say about this game, "If you liked Grand Theft Auto and Twisted Metal: Black, it's pretty likely that you'll enjoy Roadkill. The game is wide-open, the areas are fun to explore, and there are some truly funny moments along the way. One thing to note, though: this game earns all of its M-rating. It's a capital M. There is more gore, rough language, and general disrespect for humanity in this game than in most prisons. If you go in with your eyes open or (God help us) even enjoy some of these things, then it can be bloody good fun..." 7.7 IGN 8.0 Reader Score
*Just hoping people will buy more 3rd party games, especially from Midway to show GC owners DO buy mature rated games. From what I'm reading so far, no one is buying this game. Why??

Apologies if this has already been posted... At Wal-Marts the day after Thanksgiving (Blitz Day) Gamecubes will be on sale for $79.96 from opening till noon. This includes all bundles, including Zelda ^_^
EDIT #1: I'm not positive this will be chain wide, since the electronics manager was a bit vague about where he looked up the price. Some stores may have different items they promote for Blitz, in my experience at least. If anyone else can confirm this for me, it'd be appreciated...
EDIT #2: So far my store is only getting in the Black Cube Zelda bundles, though there will be Platinum ones out there. The Wal-Mart version of the Zelda bundle also comes with a game wallet (just a normal wallet, nothing special). We actually got the bundles in this afternoon and only got to briefly hold them in our hands before they were whisked off to the security room. *sniff*

Here are some great deals I just got. I don't know if they are still going on...
ToysRus has buy 2 games and get the 3rd one free of equal or lesser value. I went in the store to do it and they let me do any games. So you can buy any 2 and get any 3rd one. I don't know if the people in the store made a mistake but I got viewtiful Joe for free by buying 2 other games.
Also, Toys r us matches prices now.
ALSO, at target near me they have Star Fox Adventures for $19.99 and it comes with a memory card 251. It's like getting the game for free.

30% off these titles (use code MSNSHOP). Also, use their new Media Mail/EB Saver $1.99 shipping:

Pretty good prices on preorders and some in-stock games at dvdsoon. This is a Canadian site and I've done the conversion for you. They also offer free shipping. You will be billed immediately, not when the item ships. One important note, this place is SLOW so you'll save a few bucks but you'll be waiting. The price in parenthesis is EB/Gamestop prices:

Hey all, I've been hearing a smattering of rumours about "Black Friday" deals at gamestores and was looking for some confirmation. In particular, I've seen some talk about a deal at EB stores regarding Player's Choice titles (2 for $25?!?! in the early morning hours). This sounds a bit far-fetched, has anyone heard such?
My 8 yr old nephew finally got a Cube after a year of spending waaaay to much time at my house with mine. No way he's "borrowing" my games, so if I can get a good deal I'll buy him a handful on Friday to keep his grubby mitts of my shtuff!

Yes, EB is supposed to have Player's Choice titles (the $19.99 ones I believe) for 2 for $25.
For those who know someone who plans on going to Walmart tomorrow for the GC Zelda bundle for $79.44, they can order it now online and just pay about $6 shipping: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.gsp?product_id=2432381&cat=2636&type=22&dept=2636&path=0%3A2636

I was at Target during the Friday/Saturday Thanksgiving sale and I snagged:
Kingdom Hearts for $14 Pikmin for $14 StarFox Adventures for $18
Target was supposed to have Tekken 4 for $14, but since they sold out, they let any PS2 GH take it's place. I don't know why they sold Pikmin to me for $14. StarFox was on sale for 17.98
Buying cheap is the only way to go for college students. If I bought this stuff last year, it would have been $150!
Btw, I'm "new" here. I had an account at opn2000.com ages ago (remember when Fran from IGN posted?) and whatever incarnation this site was (I think projectn2000 or something like that). I was known as web67 at gaming-age forums but they banned me. After emailing about 3 staff members and waiting a month, I still don't have any replies. I'm known as katanabladex (and katanablade9) on battle.net for WarcraftIII: TFT on Azeroth.

Saving Private Ryan and 1080*: Avalanche sound great on mine, but I'm not the home-audio type that'll shell out the big bucks for extra Watts of power. I use it in a [college student] apartment living room.

Plus a lot of deals at stores like Target and Walmart seem to vary from store to store, so it would be hard to post a deal there only to have someone drive and find out the deal didn't apply to their store.
The IGN gamestore at gamestop.com has 20% off accessories which includes the Game Boy Player. Use code IGN20ACC. Shipping starts at $1.99 (USA Value). http://gamestore.ign.com/product.asp?product%5Fid=801581
You can also use that code for other access like mem cards or controllers. There are exclusions though so you'll have to check out the home page for all the details.

I don't know if anyone else has this deal, but in my area, at Target, and Kmart, and tons of other stores you can buy 25 dollar gift certificates for 20 dollars. You get an automatic 20% off that way. My dad bought like 30 of those gift cards for Target, literally. Plus the other stores, we have like a 5 inch pile of em. But, the catch is that you have to join this club called (something that starts with an E, forgot the name). If anyone wants to know the details of it i can ask my dad how he joined it, it's just a nice thing to have. If you buy lots of things, the 120 fee to join will quickly be saved in cards, and then you'll keep saving 20% of all the cards you buy.

right now at Best Buy, they're giving out coupon books for PS2 for $5 off each game and $10 off certain accesories, the supply may be limited, I picked up two coupon books myself.
All the coupons are good until March 6, 2004, and it may not include any nintendo games but this is such an amazing deal. Heres some examples of the coupons in the book: $5 off Sphinx & Cursed Mummy, $5 off Virtua Fighter Evolution, $5 off Simpsons Hit n Run, $5 off MOHRSun, $5 Need for Speed UG, $5 off LOTRRK, $5 off Castlevania LOI, $5 off True Crime, $5 off THUG, $5 off DBZB2, $5 off POP ST, $5 off Manhunt, ETC ETC ETC...

Also, if you order Mario & Luigi for GBA with free shipping, your entire order will be free shipping. I think the same applies to Tony Hawk Underground.

I first want to start out thanking all of you for doing this. It really means a lot. There are a ton of updates displaying obvious time spent. Thank you for doing it.
I have one question though, what is the best deal any of you have found online for a Gamecube. Mine stopped reading disks, outside of warranty, and I want to get a new one. I've been out of the market for a while, but what is the best deal online right now? I recall seeing one at Gamestop I believe for 70 dollars with Mario Sunshine. Are there any more that compete with this?

Do u think Rebel Strike is worth $30. I saw it at a local store brand new for this much and I'm wondering if I should pick it up. I've heard mixed reviews for this game but I think $30 might be resonable.

rebel strike is worth it for 30 in my opinion because it has RS 2 full game for 2 players to play cooperatively and old arcade unlockable games in addition to the new game, and the game is decent its not like superman 64, so yea id get it if i didnt have so many games to play right now

Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge (GBA) $14.99 at EB Games http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/238069.asp You can also check local Wal-Marts, since mine also dropped BK to this price. It might also be a good collector's item, since it sold poorly, no more will probably be made.

Pre-order Mega Man Anniversary Collection for GameCube at Capcom USA: click $29.95
here's the deal: - Free t-shirt w/ pre-order - Free Mega Man poster only while supplies last - Free 2-day UPS shipping (free UPS ground shipping at website for the month of February; pre-orders get bumped up to 2nd-day shipping) - Because you're pre-ordering DIRECTLY from Capcom, you may receive your game up to 2 weeks before it even shows up in stores, since Capcom ships their products out as soon they're accounted for in their inventory. I've previously ordered RE Zero, P.N.03, and Viewtiful Joe, and I've always received them well ahead of the street dates.
Sales tax applies to CA residents only (like myself), so my total was $32.42.

This isn't Cube related but it's still a good deal.
Future Shop (www.futureshop.ca) has lowered the price on nearly all of their PS1 games to only $10. And that's in Canadian funds as well. I just got Final Fantasy Tactics. You can even get the GTA collector's pack thingy (with all three PS1 GTA games) for $10.

If you want to save even more money than these online deals are saving you, you should print out the screen of the website with the deal and then take it to Circuit City.
They will price match plus 10-15% and you can have the game that day and not wait for it in the mail.
ps. you may want to call your local Circuit City and make sure they price match against online deals.

my local Gamespot store just restocked all their NES, SNES, Genesis, and N64 games, but heres the kicker... besides being able to pick up rare old games to beef up your collections they're also throwing a full 30% off any game for each of those systems. This may be your last chance to pick up these games without the hassle of ebay!

yea Gamespot stopped accepting any buybacks of nes, snes, genesis, n64, and DC games back in February. Then just about all the games were gone. But just recently they either took all the games that got sold before that buyback initiative and cataloged them and put them up for sale or they received a shipment of games from their headquarters (the latter is unlikely, so it's probably the former).
Anyways, they now have tons of nes,snes,genesis, and n64 games again. I even saw Paper Mario...

Post by: vudu on April 29, 2004, 08:31:57 AM
not really an amazing deal, b/c it's now the standard, but i just wanted to remind everyone that nintendo expanded its player's choice lineup today. you can now get mario golf and wario world for $29.99 each and f-zero and metroid prime for $19.99 each. i won't bother to privide links, since you can get it anywhere, but you can probably get these deals just about anywhere.
at the time of this post, neither best buy or circuit city have updated their webpages to reflect the new prices, but both eb games and game stop have.

To add to king vudu'js post... Next week only (starting this sunday) Circuit City is taking another 5 bucks off each title...
Thats 14.99 for Metroid Prime and F-Zero and 24.99 for Wario World and Mario Golf.
That's an in store deal and they will go quickly. If i were you, I would go in today or tomorrow, pay full price, and then price match it come next week.

My local Gamespot retail store recently slashed their prices on OH SO MANY games. Mostly the used games including the GC ones, but don't be surprised to see close to 20 very good used PS2 games for sale (the older ones but the very good ones) for under $10. I don't know if I'm happy or upset to see Rogue Squadron 3 new for $19.99 hehe.

Soul Calibur II will officially be player's choice on May 25. Some sites jumped-the-gun a week ago calling it a player's choice title, without saying when the price drop is effective, at which exact price. Within the past week, I remember seeing Soul Calibur II at EBgames.com for $19 -- which is why I previously believed player's choice was in effect. A couple days later, it went up to $29. See, even EB got confused.

Who says you're a moderator to decide? It seems to me to keep all the deals in one place is a much more intelligent route to take. We don't need more threads if there doesn't have to be more. People like the convenience of going to 1 place for their amazing deals, not clicking all over the forums to find them. It's more efficient and practical and I say focus the deals for Nintendo products but still include other deals if you find them, afterall I did create the thread.

I went to Best buy , an the slack jawed yokel of a salesmen said he never heard about the 4.99 deals. Sadly for him, the shelves proved opposite. It had a display for Freedom Fighters for 4.99. Damn if I missed it by 10 f'n minutes.

Gamestop.com now has GameCube Soul Calibur II for $14.99.
It's not a Player's Choice title either. I bought my brand-new copy at the Lenox Square Mall Gamestop in Atlanta. One of the employees there said that the $14.99 price was part of a sale that ended 06/13/2004 but I think that's wrong. The price is still in effect on their website.
Regardless, $14.99 for Soul Calibur II is a joke. I'm not even a fan of fighting games but I couldn't pass such a good game for that price.

Shaolin its probably a way to steal EA sports fan base cause its usually one or the another. This year will kinda be hard for ESPN since now PS2 and XBox versions of Madden have online now so it killled ESPNs Xbox live only sport game line up.
On the other hand 19.99 is great for a sports title since year and year their just small updates from last year and I think 20 bucks is enough for a upgrade unless its a super big overhaul(no new modes are not really overhauling).

uh we weren't saying every game under $50 is very good. just that if you only buy games that cost $50 you're wasting your money. there's many games released at $40 that are better than $50 games. and if you buy used you can get 3-6 games for less than $50.
Anyone interested in getting MGS TS for $13 bucks? It's possible, just goto Blockbuster and buy MGSTS for $26.99 used and a 2nd game to get 50% off the one that is of equal or lesser value.

I saw NBA STREET 2 for 20 thats a good game but i beat it before and im looking for the real thing. I almost bit on a used NBA 2k3 for like 15 at EB games the other day but i was going to wait to see if i could find a deal on a more current version, and EA is the only way to go for that. If not dont know do you know when they usually drop on price. thanks

I just got NBA 2k3 at eb for like $8.00, its much better than its EA counterpart. Its worth the outdated roster, IMO....
Oh yeah its called NBA Live XX where XX is the year of publishing, or the next year sometimes, its too confusing for me.

I'm getting Skies of Arcadia Legends "New" for $19.99 USD at Gamestop, if nothing goes wrong. Then there's Yahoo's store that's has it New for $26.99 USD
Everywhere else it's either Used or they want too much for it $40+ some places I see it for $60. that's lunacris. especially for a used copy, I can't wait to play it, I heard goodthing's about it, and I never could find the DC version when it came out.
Does anybody know if the EB stores are doing that pre-order deal with Tales of Symphonia? when you pre order it you'll receive a mini poster and a free artbook with the Game?
I see that EB's website is, but when I asked the store, they don't know until it comes closer to the time of release if they will get anything like that. I hope they will, or I'll might end up getting it online. That's too good to pass up, and I love to draw.

Circuit City has some games for $5. I bought PN03 and Parappa The Rapper 2. Here is a list of GameCube games that should be $5. I haven't check if all these games are $5 because they didn't have any copies at my local circuit city. Some stores may not have changed the label on the game so just price check at the counter.

You beat me to it.. I'm not sure if C.C. is going to advertise this 4.99 clearance price, but it is already in effect. Keep in mind it's for ALL consoles including GBA. Best thing to do is go in there early and have an associate check prices as most stores won't have an official list based on their own stock till Tuesday. I didn't check gaming age forums but they might have the list there already, too... I bought Viewtiful Joe and Desert Strike Advanced for $4.99 each.

Tales of Symphonia happens to be listed on that same page.

This is proably a screw up by the wal-mart in my area but they had a new memory card 1025 or whatever it is for 15 bucks. Im almost sure they dont know what there doing cause it was by the old cellphone accesories and other cheap electronic cords and stuff. I couldn't believe it cause most places had them for 30.00-35.00. And the memory cad 251 was 20 bucks so that was kind of humeorus, Im not sure if im gonna need that much more memory but if i ever do 15 bucks is not bad.

Anyway, at DVD Box Office, if you use coupon code VISA2004CE (don't know if you actually have to use a VISA, but I did) you will get 15% off your purchase. I did this for Tales of Symphonia (which they said they are out of stock on, so they better stock up soon so I can get my game!) and the grand total came to 57.25 CDN, or under 43 USD. They also ship free worldwide, so that's nice. Just though I'd share that.

Man, me and my friend saw SSBM for 20 bucks at Game Stop, which is a good deal in its own right already, but of course my friend only had $18. So we decided, hey!, mabey if we put the SSBM cover in a game case that has a $15 tag on it, we can pay less! Of course it didn't work, and the Game Stop guy thought my friend was a nut (Which is why I decided to stand outside the store until he bought it). Luckily I had enough change in my pocket and he had some too, so he got the game. The things people do for SSBM.....It was a new copy too on the self......

Title: RE:Amazing Deals!
Post by: joeamis on September 07, 2004, 06:58:48 PM
Sweet, Sony did the same thing with Best Buy last fall, they had a booklet with like 40 games all $5 off and then different amounts off for various accessories. When I got the Sony one it was just sitting in a pile by the videogames (was supposed to be only for buyers of the system, but... they clearly didn't care). Was that the case here, where were the coupons located in the store? I could've sworn I heard there were coupons in the Metroid Prime Bundle but then again maybe it was a dream. Sucks that I actually drove by Best Buy today...
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: odifiend on September 07, 2004, 07:11:02 PM
Yeah, they had a bunch of them in the gamecube section next to the metroid bundles. It had so many coupons I would actually USE that I was like this CAN NOT be free. But when I got to the register, the guy said it was free. Hopefully it wasn't just that guy's ignorance, because the book is pretty sweet.
Title: RE:Amazing Deals!
Post by: joeamis on September 09, 2004, 07:00:01 PM
I went today and looked everywhere, saw nothing. Then the clerk asked me if I needed help so I asked him if there was any kind of Gamecube coupon book. He went and checked, and said there is no such thing to our knowledge.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: odifiend on September 09, 2004, 07:12:07 PM
Well, it definitely exists. I know that much . That sucks. It is likely that the clerk didn't know what he or she was talking about. I'm not at home right now, but when i get home tomorrow, I'll try to give you more descriptive info in case the clerk can't picture it.

Depending on where you are and how well you know the clerks you can talk the price down a bit. Its a good idea to get real chummy with them, and if the game is old(this works best for gamecube) you can pull the no one's going to buy this give it to me for less. Sometimes it works.

Capcom USA's online store is doing their FREE SHIPPING deal again. FREE SHIPPING on orders over $40.00 (pre-tax total). As usual, they ship via UPS ground and they generally send out pre-orders several days AHEAD of retail stores (INDEED, long before you'd even get a 1-day shipped game from EB or GameStop!). Imagine getting Resident Evil 4 a week ahead of the street date (i'm not promising anything tho. I did receive Viewtiful Joe and others a week ahead of stores last year). And as usual Capcom includes a free gift on pre-orders, usually t-shirts, but I like the t-shirts and I wear them often. See the game pages for details.
Resident Evil 4 and Viewtiful Joe 2 are available for pre-order now (I just pre-ordered both). Capcom doesn't charge extra for separately shipped items (like for games with different release dates), and they are like, so cool.

Yeah, we get new releases via UPS, and my store usually puts them out. If it isn't out, just ask someone... As predicted I picked my copy of donkey konga up at my store on tuesday morning.... Circuit City has been getting a lot better at getting big titles on release. They are already fully geared of for GTA:SA and Halo 2... I just hope they do something with the DS and MP2:E... Maybe another T-Shirt =P

I did ask. It was on sale later that week, though. I guess that's why they wouldn't put it out early. I just went and bought it at Best Buy at full price. Showed them.

Kareoke Revolution, Donkey Konga, and any other game along the same vein of game+accessory will be part of the sale. -Because of how they are handled when it comes to inventory, presales will not count unless they come out the week oif the sale. -The Amazon sale will be the exact same as last year as well, with the price restrictions and presale restrictions allowed.

Yeah one of those, they dropped the price but now it's under $25 so I have to buy something else to get it over that value. If it were me it would be RE 4 .... However, If there is a Circuit City near you, I would just head to the store. Since they're a national chain, you'll probably be charged tax one way or another (unless your not in the US - but I don't know those ropes)
Oh and a friend of mine just picked up Timesplitters 2 for GC at Bestbuy for $9.99. It's not listed on their site, so it's probably closeout (they seem to like doing that with their games).

OK, we're talking about cheap games, right?
So, the first thing I wanted to tell you guys about is froogle.com for those of you who haven't used it yet. It's a tool that searches for products for sale, including games. I believe it also searches for used games on ebay and other sites.
Anyway, you just type in the name of the game you want. It searches and gives you some results. On the left hand column, there is a link that says sort by: "Price: lowest to highest". Click that and more results will be displayed. After this, you will have to go through some guides etc for the game,because they are cheaper. However, keep going through the pages of results, and you will soon find your game for the lowest price found. I have found that this tool is very helpful at times.
Next (this is only for people who live in Canada)
futureshop.ca is a great site. It has games on offer all the time. What I have found is that as soon as a game comes out, it is reduced to $49.99 canadian on the site for a while. This happened for RE4 as well as Paper Mario & MP2:E. I bought RE4 and MP2 from there, and it really helped because the other stores didnt go less than $60. Occasionally it has other games on sale (1 example is Madden 2005 for $29.99 CDN in November). BTW it has free shipping too
another site is compusmart.com. This site is weird (in a good way). THey had Day of Reckoning for $29.99 CDN when it was $60-70 everywhere else.
Ok anyway sorry for the long post - thanks for reading
Title: RE:Amazing Deals!
Post by: IceCold on January 25, 2005, 12:06:50 AM
And I forgot, if a game is more than one word, put the whole name in paranthesis
eg if you want Mario Party 6 type in "Mario Party 6"
sorry

It's 12.99 btw, and I really don't think anyone read my above thread, but i found it from froogle.com, and i could probably find a new copy of this game for even cheaper on that site. Plz see my above thread for details....
Oh, and Burnout 2 is a great game, now just hoping EA will finally bring Burnout 3 to GCN - 2 was quite popular

Check out Best Buy right now. You can choose from a long list of games for all three major consoles where every pair of games costs you only 12.50 (that is 12.50 a game for any even number of games purchased).
Another way of saying that is that if there's some game you want for 20 bucks, you can get another one for just 5 more. If you can arrange store pickup, you can even skip shipping costs (you'll have to pay taxes of course, but even in lousiana sales tax on a 12.50 game is barely a dollar).

The 9.96 price was chain wide, but that has since stopped. All stock has been pulled on Meteos until they fix that error. For the copies that still slip through, a message, saying "see manager" pops up. The 9.96 deal was sweet, but it has since ended.

What are the GC bundles coming with now? See, my GC just died (at had it since a month after launch, it lasted a while..) and ideally I'd like a new game. The Double Dash deal was awesome, but I fear I have missed that =\ The rest of the deals are either with games that I already own, or games that really suck.
Does anyone know of any deals where I can choose a game from a list or something, or that comes with a game that isn't SSBM/WW/SMS/etc?

I was at Circuit City this evening and they had a big display for Nintendogs (with an ample supply of all 3 versions in stock).
I had already picked it uo this afternoon at GameStop, though. But you're right - most of those larger electronics/department stores don't put the new games out until Wednesday or Thursday. I had also picked-up Advance Wars at GameStop and C.C. did not have that.

Bad move amazon. I just cancelled my $236 order. I'm pretty sure they'd have made up the $15 dollar discount on that one order. Not to mention I don't plan on buying from them anymore and they've lost a whole bunch more over on my lifetime purchases. I understand that things get screwed up in systems. But they should just eat the small loss they would have gotten on this deal. I was especially po'd that I didn't get the email until tonight. The price has been fixed for three days. I could have already went to a store and bought the game and been playing it for that time.
My parents once got a george foreman-like stand up grill for free from Kroger. It was originally like $130 and on sale for $100. The cash register wrang up the original price of $130. Kroger's policy is if the item gets rung up wrong then you get the item for free. Now that's customer service. Not that I'd expect Amazon to do this, but they probably were still going to break even at $15 especially since they were going to charge me like $6 for 5-10 day shipping. Oh well, I live right by an ebgames that has treated me well. Gonna pay them a visit tomorrow.
Title: RE:Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: 31 Flavas on August 24, 2005, 05:57:49 PM
The difference of course being that Kroger does that for an individual (single) person. Amazon.com on the other hand probably had thousands and thousands and thousands of orders for the $14.99 Nintendogs. The price was posted all over the internet. Lets estimate say 10,000 pre-orders multiply that times $15, and means that YOU yourself as the bussiess owner are going to have to foot $150,000 because of the price mistake. Versus Kroger where you would only have to pay, what $130?

clevel~1: Stop complaining, misprints happen. It's standard retail policy not to honour misprints, all catalogues and stuff have little disclaimers "may contain misprints" on them. I won't comment on what I think of anyone who seriously thought Amazon would sell the game for 15$, that's just too obvious. Besides, games have such tiny profit margins they'd lose ~10$ on every copy sold at 15$.
Title: RE:Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: clevelandst124 on August 25, 2005, 01:46:49 AM
Okay so I was a little mad and I would probably buy again from Amazon again if they had a great deal. However, apparently alot of people thought it was a real deal or it would have jumped to number one overall in the sales category. And deals like this happen all the time especially at places like amazon. I believe they had Eternal Darkness for $14.99 a month after it's release. I see places like Best Buy have games $10 off at release to get you to buy it from there. It would have worked too because I went mad and bought several games while I was at it. I was more mad that it took them so long to respond. They fixed the error almost immediately. It's as if they were waiting for the rest of the order to ship so I couldn't cancel back on them. Luckily I shipped everything together and one item took a week to ship.
And the loss speculation is just that. But I'm pretty sure they could sell it for $15 and lose a minimal amount. Every month or so Meijer has the buy one get one half off sale. That means two DS games at $30 a piece comes out to $45 or $22.50 a game. They have more overhead tied into the games because they have to have people stock the games and the upkeep of a storefront business whereas Amazon is all automized and warehouses. How much do they make? Beats me it's anyone's guess but I don't think Meijer loses money on the deal or they wouldn't continue to give it. And like I said Amazon was going to charge me $5 on shipping that costs a dollar and the tax on the shipping. So that bumps the real price Amazon was charging up to $19 for the game which is close to the deal at Meijer.
And if your argument is that Amazon sells more than a Kroger/Meijer whatever, then that means they also get thier stock for cheaper because they have much better negotiating power. Kroger is going to have to sell alot of groceries (thier main seller) where they made pennies on the sale to make up a hundred dollar write-off.

KDR ~I won't comment on what I think of anyone who seriously thought Amazon would sell the game for 15$, that's just too obvious.
I would have agreed with you that I needed to stop complaining on the message board taking up the thread space. And indeed I'm already over it. I cancelled my order and reaffirmed my position that I needed to save at least 20% to buy anything off of amazon. I think that's fair retribution. I bought the game, which I thought was worth $30. I was able to support local businesses/jobs. And then you add a comment like that. Why don't you just make a generallization about my intelligence? Let's see you know I believed that amazon would sell me Nintendogs for $15 as part of a price promotion that would get me to buy one of the hottest games from them. That this incentive would encourage me to buy more items from them both now and in the future. That I believed thier pricing system was correct because it's clearly correct over 99% of the time. And that I post on this message board about once every two months for varying reasons. Heck why don't you make broad generalizations about my job, my wife, and my house?

I picked up Nintendogs from EBGames yesterday by trading in 4 old GBA games. All I had to pay for was the tax. So, if you want to get Nintendogs for cheap, you can always follow that route. The clerk told me that the promo will last until the end of this week, so if that's what you want to do, you better hurry.
Also, take in more than 4 games just in case because there are some games that they won't take. My copy of Dragon Tales was worth $0.00 to them.

I saw VJ2 at Best Buy, also for $15.
I have a question though, does VJ2 have a level of all bosses like the first one did? See, I'm at that part int he first game, and I can't beat it (I got to Fire Leo a couple times, but I can't beat him...). I have decided that the all boss level was stupid and I refuse to play such a poorly designed game.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on August 26, 2005, 03:43:42 PM
I'm not sure yet. I stopped playing VJ2 before RE4 came out, and i'm probably halfway thru the game. I'm playing on Adults, and I will say that the bosses seem much, much easier, but mid-bosses are much harder than the bosses, and stages seem harder and unbalanced than VJ1's cuz the rate of tougher (cheap) enemies they throw at you is annoying. That, and i'm stuck at a vehicle level that's just not flowing as well as the flight level in VJ1.
Honestly, Fire Leo is one of the easier bosses, cuz his attack pattern is pretty rigid. Tho you do have to be pretty coordinated during Mach-Speed platforming. I'll try to show you what I mean... In any case, the all-boss level is a fantastic reference to the Mega Man system.

The clerk told me that the promo will last until the end of this week, so if that's what you want to do, you better hurry.
I thought "1 old game = 0.25 new game" was standard EB trade-in policy?
And trade in 4 games for one game? I really don't think that's a good deal. I mean, I'd trade in Bubble Bobble and maybe Advance Wars and FFTA but there's no fourth game I'd trade in...
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: Myxtika1 Azn on August 27, 2005, 01:25:24 AM
For the promotion, EB bumped each of the 4 games to $7.50 each. That comes up to $30, which is 1 cent more than the game costs.
As for the games, I traded in Castlevania Circle of the Moon, Namco Museum, Double Dragon, and Classic NES Metroid. Normally, the trade in value for all four of these games combined would be around $5-$6. Considering that these are games I don't play anymore, and was planning on getting rid of anyways, I think it's worth the trade for Nintendogs.
As for getting that fourth game, I would just go buy a used, cheap GBA games from them and then trade that in. It would still be cheaper than paying $30+ dollars for it.

I remember reading a review for VJ2 which said that the all-boss level is in the game. In VJ1 it just seemed to get more tedious throughout each difficulty(especially for the other characters). I think I'm just going to pick up a copy now and maybe save it for when I'm ready to play it. I actually just started a game on the hardest difficulty last night. Does VJ2 have enough new stuff to seem like I'm not playing through VJ1 again?

Normally, the eBay value of these games is more than that. Plus you can rip 'em off on shipping and get an extra buck or two for each game .

Well, Professer, with Sylvia as a playable character right off the bat, the game will feel different. There are some similar elements but having to switch between Joe and Sylvia will make the game feel different. As for an all-the-boss level, yes there is one (I played VJ2 and beat it after six months of not playing it). For more info see my spoiler below: *WARNING* Towards the end you'll encounter an female android who initiall disguises herself as Sylvia and take the rainbow oscars from Joe. Then, you'll meet the professor that made her and he'll say something about observing your previous boss fights and recording the data or something. . . Anyway, she'll change forms in to all of your previous bosses until you finally beat her and do something to her computer brain, I can't remember what.
P.S.: Burning Leo had a brother, Ice Tiger, who you'll meet in VJ2. He's easy if you know just when and how to hit him.

Well HEY, another local! GameStop is in the shopping area at the corner of Russell Blvd & Sycamore. Easiest way there is to go I-80 East, get on Woodland-113 North, then take the Russell Blvd exit.
Alternatively, the EBgames in Davis is "up the street." Stay on Woodland-113 (skip Russel), exit on Covell going right. It's in the Safeway center next to the freeway entrance (corner of Covell and Sycamore). I prefer these two stores over the ones in Fairfield, plus i'm not fond of the former Funcoland in Vacaville.

Thanks 666, Ill check the Davis stores when Spartan Total Warrior comes out. Ill agree with you on the former funcoland in vacaville. I kept going there because i like one of the employees their. he was cool and knew what he was talking about. The manager that was there is no longer their. He was an idiot. He tried to sell me Tales used and said that i would not be able to find it new anywhere because it was not being made anymore. I couldnt find it in Vacaville but i found 4 at Frys electronics, so i got it there. I dont buy used games..Now the game is Players Choice and can be found everywhere. I never talked to him after that. But the other guy was cool. That former manager is now at best buy..lol loser.

This sale in Canada right now is insane... almost all DS and PSP games are completely gone from the local TRUs... only ones in stock are brand new ones like Castlevania which is still full price. I managed to get Trace Memory and Lunar for C$14.97 each, and I wasn't even looking to get them. I've read that people who work at EB cleaned-out some TRU's in Ontario, buying around 100 games and then heading back to their store with them, which TRU seemed to notice a bit too late... cause only now do they have a 'Limit 1 title per customer' sign.
Also, if you're looking for Lost In Blue for $27.99, try amazon.ca. They also have Castlevania for C$39.99.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: Ian Sane on October 17, 2005, 07:59:23 AM
I can confirm the TRU Canada sale. My brother got Kirby: Canvas Curse. They had a sign saying "All DS games $15 some exceptions apply!" which the clerk took down since it wasn't every game. But it was close. Castlevania was the only major title that wasn't. The Langley BC location still had tons of games left including Meteos. The top shelf with Castlevania on it was the only shelf not on sale. Every game below was $15.

The sale in Canada is pretty much over now (only a few peg warmers are left at $14.97 now). I've read online that the whole thing was an error, but I just can't see how since it was in every store (managers would know their own sales wouldn't they?) and online too. Whoever tracks numbers for this week will see a huge sales spike in Canada for DS (and PSP) games.

How did you get Jungle Beat and I didn't? Did you go on online or in person?
When you do it online you need a promotional code in order to get the third game free. There's a unique promo code for $29.99 games, $39.99 games and $49.99 games. The way it's worded it makes it seem like all three games need to be the same price in order to get the third free. So Jungle Beat doesn't count because it's $54.99.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: SgtShiversBen on October 25, 2005, 09:44:21 AM
I went in person It's better to get it there and haggle (also flirt) with the cashiers to get the things you want. But I got the Halos (which is 54.99) so yeah it'll work for Jungle Beat too. At mine it said that ALL GameCube, PS2 and Xbox software is buy two get one free.
Go to the store.

just type DS into the search area on the left then click on the link
Me thinks that's a typo. I really can't see Nintendo dropping the DS price when it's been preforming so well against the PSP thus far. Plus dropping the DS price would force them to knock down the Micro and SP prices as well. Unless Target has worked out some special deal with them to sell it at this price point temporarily in order to give them an extra holidy boost, I don't think it's legit.

Nintendo is definitely willing to work out 'deals.' Remember the SP bundles two seasons ago? Limited edition SP with a first-party title bundled in for $99. The SP wasn't in any sales lag at the time either, as the GameCube is now.

Just got home from my shift today at Target and was able to find out the deal on this deal. It IS a misprint in the catalog. So the online catalog should be changing to reflect that, but if you bring in the catalog with the $99.99 price printed in it then they will sell you the DS for the $99.99 price.

There are more deals for the DS at Amazon.ca but I only put the most recent games. Also, the BestBuy and FutureShop deals also apply if you want to get the games yourself rather than waiting for them. I really do wonder how BestBuy and FutureShop got permission to sell the WiFi USB adapters.

Here's the goods.

Target's response and honors it:
Thanks for your e-mail about The Nintenedo Dual Screen in the 2005 Holiday Catalog. The ad is a misprint, as the price in the system should be $129.99. However, Target is honoring the ad price of $99.99 if you are able to bring in a copy of the catalog. If you have any trouble at the store, have them call us at (800) 440-0680 and we will be able to assist you then. Keep in mind the catalog price expires on December 12th, 2005. We always welcome your questions, so if we can assist you in the future, please contact our Target Guest Relations team at (800) 440-0680. You can also speak with a team member at the Guest Services Desk at your local Target store, or visit us on Target.com. Either way, we’re here to help! Thanks for shopping with us. I hope we’ll see you again soon at Target.
Enjoy
you know you want it

NOA decided that they want the Wi-Fi dongle to go the way of the GameCube Component Cable, so they're selling them online-only (for now).
Nintendo of Canada said that was dumb, so they're letting Canadian stores sell them.

Nice try MysticGohan, but you have to have a physical copy of the Catalog. There is a reason they are honoring the price, and that is because they go out to Best Guests, which are typically those people that spend about $1,000 on their Target Red Card / Visa each month. Oh, and they've already corrected the online price, so they can deny to honor the price on those grounds as well.
You can try to bring in the printout of the online catalog, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do not honor it. Unfortunately, I work in the department responsible for proofing the design/layout of that Catalog, and wish I would have caught the mistake. We're not trying to be asses if we don't honor the price, you just have to look at it from our perspective, that a mistake was made, and we're losing $29.99 for each one of these units that moves out the door.

Post by: ShyGuy on December 06, 2005, 04:45:47 AM
Update: I took the risk and brought in the printout of the ad (screen capture since it's flash) I also printed out the terms and conditions.
I took it to the electronics desk, showed it to the clerk and asked him if they were honoring the ad. I pointed out that it was in-store only. He brought over a manager, who looked at the printouts. The manager was really friendly and said sure, so me and a buddy of mine both got a DS for $99
Now, your mileage may vary, I have heard that not all Target stores are honoring it.
BTW, I took it to Walmart first since they do price matching but they said it would have to be the actual catalog, not just an online printout. I have heard Circuit City is price matching it though.

Understandable. I'm not a company whore either, but when you're a part of the company's bottom line, it's hard not to feel bad when something like this goes awry, and you had the opportunity to avoid it.
Good deals to all those that can get 'em. Sorry to hear about your experience with Target though Mystic. I've had that happen with retailers like Walmart and Best Buy, so I hear ya.

Post by: MysticGohan24 on December 06, 2005, 02:56:21 PM
It's not so much that with retail. it's that while in school we had this on the job trainning program, and it was at target.
For some reason they had to blame someone for writing on the stalls in the bathroom, so they did this bs for everyone to draw to see if it matched the ones in the bathroom. "without telling any of us that was the purpose" So I get blame for the way I write, cause I have artharatis in my hands so they believed it to be me, yet I had noway of drawing on anything since I did not had any pen, pencil, crayon on me.
I do not like to be accused of something I'll never do, and to blame me cause it matches is insane due to a birth defect that my hand shakes all the time infuriates me.
I just can't forgive that injustice, that and it cost me my grades, and I was innocent the whole time.
I think it's because I'm part native american

I bought my mom a DS for christmas about 3 days ago from circuit city($129.99=$140.71 after tax) then I came back to this thread this morning b4 work and Mystic reminded me that I posted that DS for $99.00 @ target ad about a week ago, so...
I went back to circuit city today, with reciept and print out of screen capture(which I provided in this thread). They said they got a memo about this mis print and that they weren't supposed to match it.
but long story short....
I knew the guy working there, so now I got my DS discounted ($96.99=$104.99 after tax)

Long story that's not for this thread. Basically, a series of things with an ugly and costly finale. Now I'll no longer spend another dollar there. Most of the time I'd not project my like or dislike for a particular chain as it really boils down to each individuals experience with them. (Which is why customer service is so important, and I'd wish they'd teach it to their employees, but I digress). In the end, it turns out I wasn't the only one in my state too have issues and so they've earned it in my book...
I picked up Battalion Wars at a local store that price matches (and is much closer any ways).

Future Shop Micro - $99.99
Super Store Mario and Luigi, AC:WW, and Mario Kart DS are $39.98 each $30 off when you spend over $250 $10 off games over $30.
Zellers DS systems (the normal, unbundled ones - Platinum, Blue) - $149.97 plus free carrying case Select Gamecube games (probably Player's Choice and those $18 ones) for $14.97-24.97 each. (they've also got this for the other systems...)

This probably varies from location to location, but I saw Geist in the $18 discount game bin at Wal-Mart. I've also seen Killer7 and Baten Kaitos in there, too, for that price.
Oh yeah, I think this ends tomorrow (Sunday), but at Super Store, any video game over $30 you get $10 off. Plenty of deals for those who still have extra money to spend...

Oh, sorry, don't know if it counted for games $29.99. (yeah, a little late on the reply...). I didn't end up going, so I'm not sure if there were certain restrictions or anything. Did you give it a try? manage to pick up any good games?
Title: RE:Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: vudu on December 19, 2005, 11:38:28 AM
When you purchase a Nintendo DS for $129.99 and sign up for a T-Mobile rate plan of at least $39.99/month and add unlimited e-mail/text messages for an additional $19.99/month you get a free Blackberry, Sidekick or other high-tech phone.
Not sure how many people would actually want to take advantage of an offer like this, but if you're in the market for both a DS and a new cell phone plan it may interest you.
Title: RE:Amazing Deals!
Post by: IceCold on December 19, 2005, 01:53:24 PM
Yeah actually I did - only over $30 so $29.99 games weren't counted. And there weren't many $35 games either so you basically had to buy a $40+ game for the offer to count. I didn't pick up anything because I have a full plate at the moment, but it was a good deal regardless.

Geist is less than $20 nearly everywhere - saw it at Superstore
And tell me if anyone has heard of this, but there's a deal where if you buy any DS AND a USB dongle, you get a $25 mail-in rebate. That's a great deal if you want both. I saw it at Futureshop, but it's probably everywhere else too.

But enough with that over 200-300 stores will be closing and anyone looking for some good deals should get in on it as soon as possible, at my store some of the good games are all gone, and since my store stop recieving shipments back in the first week of January you can guess there really isn't going to be much anyway.

$35 is MSRP for a lot of games and has been for a while.

He didn't say $30 isn't considered a deal. He said it shouldn't be considered a deal. (i.e. $35 MSRP is crap.)

Spending $35 on a better Mario Kart than the $60 N64 version is "crap?" Or what about a handheld, online Metroid game almost as long as its GameCube predecessor?

Better yet, think of it this way: DS games are only $17.50 per screen!

I had a weird problem trying to order from them before... apparently your Paypal account has to be linked to a credit card or they won't allow payments from it. When I asked them about it, they told me I should just use a bank transfer instead (of course that costs way more than what I was going to save).

Post by: vudu on March 28, 2006, 04:02:10 PM
That's not true. Your PayPal account can be linked to either a bank account or a credit card. There's no additional cost for the buyer either way. However, the seller usually prefers a bank transfer because then they don't have to pay the 3% transaction fee.

That's generally true (at least, I find it's true for 99% of sellers), but when I tried to place an order through Play-Asia and pay with Paypal, they would not let me continue without entering a credit card number (even though not only was my account linked to my bank account, but there was more than enough present in my Paypal balance to cover the charge). Paypal gave me the message "This retailer doesn't accept eChecks" when I attempted to manually change the payment option.
When I asked Play-Asia about it, I got the following reply:
Hi Jason,
thank you for contacting Play-Asia.com.
You may consider to use other payment methods listed in the payment email.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: vudu on March 28, 2006, 05:20:48 PM
Nevermind then. I figured you were somehow unfamiliar with PayPal. I guess Play-Asia just sucks.
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: jasonditz on March 28, 2006, 07:30:15 PM
You raise an interesting point though: it doesn't cost any more to accept balance transfers... so why is it every once in awhile you run into an online retailer that doesn't (Godaddy is the only other one I've ever seen like that).
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: vudu on March 29, 2006, 02:02:53 AM
Credit card payments are instantanious. Bank transfers are take a couple days to clear. My guess is some retailers don't want to deal with that. However, since you said you have enough cash in your PayPal balance to cover it, I have no idea why they wouldn't accept it. Perhaps you can't accept one without accepting the other?

Well, here's a great deal for someone in Canada who hasn't picked up a DS yet. It's the DS, Metroid Prime Hunters, and a USB WiFi dongle for $200 CDN. That's about $50 less than if you bought them separately.
Also, a while back Zellers had a great deal for the DS; I was surprised that it was so low so early. It was a DS plus a game of under $40 for $150 CDN. Most of the games were covered.. I forgot to post it here, and I just remembered about it, so it may not still be on.

Saw it mentioned elsewhere on the forum, but this page has a coupon for $5 off any DS game at Best Buy.
Combine that with the fact that American Sk8land is only $20 at BB these days, and you can get some Tony Hawk love for only $15.
I went in to use the coupon for RES and left with Sk8land, a game I hadn't even planned to get. But for $15 I'll try it.
They've got quite a few $20 games there these days - Harry Potter, Ridge Racer, Urban Asphault were the other ones that stood out. Looks like you can use the coupon with any of them, so have at it.

Sadly, my Best Buy did not have any Sk8lands left. They did, however, have Bomberman for $15.

Gamecube LOgitech Speed Force Wheel with accessory kit (pedals & lap attachment) new for $9.99 at Amazon.com.
See CheapAssGamer for the link to Amazon. You must register as a user if you aren't already.
btw on Amazon it actually says its for the PS2, but it's the Gamecube version. A couple other posters on CAG confirmed this and I can confirm it as well. I got it today and it rocks. It supports a bunch of racers including Burnout 2, F-Zero GX and I think all the Need for Speeds. Also MKD supports it. There's a PGC Review on it btw that lists a few additional older supported games and there might be a few others as well. GReat wheel. Great fun.

Unless you absolutely need a ds lite, there are some great deals going on for the blue ds at amazon.com. $99 for either the blue bundle with Nintendogs or with Animal Crossing.
Good time to print out that ad and get it price matched somewhere else, Circuit City isn't known for having too many copies of games on release day, if they have them on release day @ all.
p.s. regular price is $34.99

Where does it list DKJB WITH bongos on the list? It always says DKJB WITHOUT bongos. Donkey Konga has bongos but not DKJB. Still, this is awesome news. Way to go BlacknMild. Looks like I'll be getting Odama after all. Same with Metroid Pinball and DK: King of Swing all sooner than expected.

you're right about the bongos thing, error on my part
so how much do bongos cost anyway? maybe whoever is gonna buy me DKJB should also buy me DK w/ bongos too, that sounds the cheaper route to go, 2 games +bongos for $20.00.

I found the list on GAF and it was supposedly confirmed by quite a few of the Canadian members there who picked up a few of the games.
and for this information(assuming you are in Canada), I expect we can work out a game shipping money trading exchange?

Damn nice find.
As a new DS owner and previous owner of all three console systems, this is a hell of a sale.
Are you sure it's $9 each?
Also, can anyone help me pick out 2 good DS games from that list?
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: vudu on June 29, 2006, 10:04:00 AM
Advance Wars & Meteos are two games that no DS owner should be without. However, you might have a hard time finding them at CC (mine was out). But both are worth paying full price for if you can't find them on sale.
I picked up Polarium and Trace Memory at my CC the other day (confirmed, the price was $9 each).

Post by: Requiem on June 29, 2006, 10:20:49 AM
Nice.
I appreciate the help. Plus, if I can't find them in-store, I bet I can get the same deal online.
Oh wait, I almost forgot...
What are your GBA recommedations? I haven't own a portable period. I feel like I have some catching up to do (since I am now in LOVE with portable gaming).
Title: RE: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: vudu on June 29, 2006, 11:07:54 AM
The GBA has a lot of great games. Just going by what's on that list, I'd recommend
Final Fantasy Tactics Final Fantasy IV Kirby And The Amazing Mirror Mario VS Donkey Kong Metroid Zero Mission Wario Ware
However you should also pick up Zelda: Minish Cap, Metroid Fushion, both Golden Suns, at least one of the Advance Wars games (unless you get Advance Wars DS), Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga (its DS sequel is really good, too), Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow (again, its DS sequel is a must have), Fire Emblem (and its GBA sequal Sacred Stones, to a lesser extent), and Astro Boy: Omega Factor (Treasure goodness). That's all I can think of off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's more.

Yeah, I went to CC the other day with high hopes, but they had nothing on the GBA or DS list. I was quite sad, I really want FFIV, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, and Metroid Zero Mission =((
But I bought a DS Lite instead so, uhh,

I just read in the semi-weekly flyer that if you buy a DS Lite, they're throwing in Pokemon for $10 more, which comes to $160 CDN total. Also, they're having this promotion where if you buy one Player's Choice game, you get one free. Sounds like a great time to pick up RE4, for those of you that haven't yet.. But hurry, QUANTITIES ARE LIMITED!

Speaking of Toys-R-Us, I stopped out there to check out the deal IceCold mentioned about the 2 for 20, but didnt see much. What I did see though was Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance for $20.98 and Baten Kaitos for $10.48 with the soundtrack included! SO thanks for sending me down there IceCold, paid off better than expected!

$14.99 new at CC and GAmecrazy for Battalion WArs, Chibi Robo, Fire Emblem and Geist.
I personally picked up a used Battalion Wars at GC tonight for $12.99. It was in the same shape as new anyway.

My local Walmart had it on the shelf for $50... maybe they forgot the special sale overlay? They didn't have an ad for me to check and I can't find it online. The CC price was $38 (Thanks for the heads up vudu).

Oh the joys of triple posting.
I was just looking at the flyers for Boxing Day, and us Canadians are in for a treat. I'll be damned if this isn't one of the best gaming-related Boxing Days yet! They're coming out of every orifice! The flyers are literally excreting the discounts..
I'll list the relevant ones on a store-by store basis. All prices in Canadian dollars, of course..
Superstore:
I love Superstore, and it has outdone itself this time.
All original DSes - only $89.98!! That's mind-blowing. I'm so tempted to buy yet another one for my family.
GameCube PLUS Super Smash Bros Melee - $89.98. I saw it for that price over a year ago somewhere, but this is with SSBM. Can't go wrong (retail for that bundle is $160)..
All value video games $9.98 - they're usually $19. I'm going to pick up a couple of obscure or old titles that I missed.
Intec Universal Racing Wheel - $19.99 (regularly $50)
SD Cards - Kingston 2GB: $29.99
Zellers:
ALL Wii games - 15% OFF
DS Lite PLUS WiFi Connector - $164.94 (save $20)
50% off ALL games under $30 (wow)
WalMart:
Players Choice games - $18.63 (save $10)
GameCube console - $77.93
Best Buy:
2 1GB PNY SD Cards - $29.99 (save $70)
DS Lite - $129.99
So in conclusion, everyone who hasn't bought a DS, PICK ONE UP ON THE 26th!! .....
Also, I was extremely surprised to see the low prices of the Xbox 360. I guess it didn't sell well here during the holiday season, but Microsoft is going all out for Boxing Day. I read once that the Xbox doesn't do as well in Canada, so that may be the reason. But I digress.
In at least 3 places (FS, BB and Walmart I believe) the premium bundle PLUS Ghost Recon PLUS Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged is only around $400 CDN. That's unbelievable, especially when you consider that the console itself without the games is usually $500 CDN.
Finally, we all know the PSP's sales situation, so a discount was inevitable. Future Shop has the console plus a case for $180 ($70 saving) and Best Buy has it for the same price but no case. That's actually a pretty reasonable price if I was looking for a PSP. Or an Xbox 360 for that matter. But I'm not..

EB and Gamestop have Chibi Robo, Custom Robo, Geist, Batallion Wars, DK: Jungle Beat (2 Bongos), and Fire Emblem each for $9.99. I also hear Toys R' Us are doing massive price cuts to get rid of GCN and GBA games.
Personally I'm gonna call up some stores around me before i take my 10 miles drive to pick up Chibi Robo (thats if im lucky).
Title: RE:Amazing Deals!

I just checked EB and GS for DK:JB, BW & FE. Fire Emblem does not exist to EB & GS online, it is no where to be found on thier site for the GC. DK & BW were 19.98 until the 17.99 handling fee which brought the final price up to $40 with the cheapest shipping.
I guess I'll have to actually check a store later today and see what I can find. I don't want to pay the handling fee., You think Circuit City will price match? Does Best Buy Price match?
Title: RE: Amazing Deals!
Post by: UncleBob on January 02, 2007, 05:25:26 AM
for EBGames, use the coupon code "SAVER" for free shipping. Unfortunatly, you'll still have the $10 handling fee for the DK:JB bundle...

apparently u have to go into a EBgames or Gamestop store, i know what u are thinking but hey I just got Chibi Robo and Beyond Good & Evil for $10 and $15 each. Also you may want to ask the clerk how much it costs as the stores don't typically update the price stickers very often. Oh and EB and Gamestop had flyers for these sales/price cuts but i failed to find one in the store. This might help though: http://www.infendo.com/2006/12/gamestop-sez-hey-theres-gamecube-in-my.html

Ok, so I bought DK:JB w/ extra bongo & Batallion Wars! UncleBob your coupon saved me $2.99 on super saver shipping , but Fire Emblem IS NOT on sale and still doesn't exist on their website, but atleast now there was only a $10 handling charge and the total only came up to $32 for both games.
I hesitated but DK and BW are sold out at all EB/GS in my immediate area, so I bought it online.

Status Report: Not even a handful, let alone a single game. After not finding anything good on clearance (out of 3 games) I called up some other Best Buys and some where not aware, others said their stock had very few games on the list to begin with if any. My sister was really dissapointed she couldn't get her Karaoke Revolution Party on.
Would have been awesome but none of my BestBuys had any of the games to begin with....

I may go look after work, but from the last few times I went to a Best Buy, I'd say the odds of them having any of these games in stock to begin with are pitiful. I took a quick look at their website, and there are a handful of games on it for $1.99, but they're all sold out (and crap).
It's probably real, but good luck finding anything you want.

Definite bust. I checked the best buy's in my area, which debunked this rumor as soon I as went to the game section.
The first one I visited I was looking for a basket or an endcap with clearance items. When the sales lady came to me, she said "You're looking for the clearance sale? Sorry, that was a rumor blown out of proportion."
The next one I went to, the gentleman said the same thing. Someone's going to pay. Someone's going to pay really badly...

Post by: WuTangTurtle on February 26, 2007, 04:48:15 PM
apparently the BestBuys in my state decided to re-locate all the games on the list to a single store. I, unfortunately was nowhere near that said store.

I believe they just applied the 20% discount to everything on the site. At least that's what the description on the sale page lead me to believe.

It has to have a smoothie icon on the right hand side of the description, the 20% discount is already taken out of the regular price. Basically the things in question have to be out for more than 30 days.

Also, they are going to sell Brain Age 2 for $19.99. I'll let you know tomorrow if they accept the coupon and sell it for $14.99. (I'm hoping.)

Friday at the latest (it's part of their weekly deals rotation), or until it sells out prior to that.
Be aware, if I get one, that's one less potential unit for you to get. I'm still debating it considering I already have (2) DPLII setups. I could probably give it to my parents and setup their living room blah blha blhalballblhah blah blha

The thing is that I already have a stereo, but I never got the surround sound system for it. My stereo is a little bulky for something that I have hooked up to my TV and my computer, so a 750 Watt component reciever with the surround kit already included sounds really good.
Now I just wish I had gotten the silver component switch box instead of the black one. All my electronics in the cabinet are silver except for that.

USPS shipping is only 99¢. If you've never shopped at FamilyVideo.com before, use the coupon code NEWPGMEM to receive $5.00 off your order.
EDIT: I should point out that the 99¢ shipping is rather slow (5 - 10 days). So if you must play this game on the day it comes out, you're better off getting it elsewhere. But if you're cheap and don't mind waiting this is for you.

I was on the fence about getting GH3, but at that site, I got $15 off and didn't have to pay state sales tax. I saved about $20. I don't really care if I get it a few days later.
Thanks for the pro tip!

Hey guys, 20% off all DS games in-store at Circuit City. Repeat: in-store (some are discounted online, but not all).
This includes Advanced Wars DoR for $23.99.
I'll hopefully be able to confirm this myself tonight, but it was in their ad yesterday, so we should be good.

Anyways, in case any of you still need to pick up Guitar Hero 3 III for Wii, it's on sale this week for $69.99 at Toys R Us (in-store). That's $20 off the regular price, and may make it too enticing for people to pass up. I'm heading out to pick it up today, at least.

books, CDs, DVDs, VHSs and tapes give no trouble, obviously, but for everything else, either use a P.O. box service or ship to a friend/relative who is staying in the US and can bring it to you later... both have disadvantages however, which makes them somewhat impractical (which is why I don't use them often... I rarely do, actually...)

They seem to have fairly low quantities available. I would have gotten Fire Emblem, too, but it was gone before I even checked.
I'm waiting to see what the next deal is, but it's clear from the clues that the next two will be MySims and The Simpsons.
Edit: It figures that I missed the one game I want and don't already own.

Incidentally, today's video game deal of the day is also a Wii game: Manhunt 2 for $25. I think that's Amazon's "just get rid of it" price, since it's right at the free shipping minimum.

"Wii will, Wii will rock you!" - I'm hoping this is Guitar Hero 3. "Muster your squad to fight the terrorist threat" - My guess is Ghost Squad. "Get your hardball fix without worrying about rainouts." - Some baseball game.

For those interested, through tomorrow Gamestop is having a Buy 2 get 1 free sale. The thing that makes this extra juicy is the fact that they are clearancing out old Gameboy and Gameboy Color games. At one of my local Gamestops, they had 2 massive boxes that they kept in the back loaded with games. I walked out with a nice load of games including:
Metroid II, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Land, Pokemon Pinball, Game & Watch Gallery 2 + 3, Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land, Wario Land 3, and Conker's Pocket Tales.
The lot of them cost me $20, which is a damn steal in my opinion. There were plenty of other games available, which I will be going back to browse through tomorrow. The selection was awesome and there were tons of copies of all the Zeldas, Super Mario games and other Nintendo Gameboy classics. Just a friendly heads up for anyone looking to expand their handheld collection.

Local bargain bins here contain Starfox Command and Elite Beat Agents for 20 Euros each... Is that worth it? I know EBA has many fans but I play my games with sound off and have as much sense for rythm as a dead badger so I doubt it's a game I could play. SFC got fairly bad critique, right?
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: DAaaMan64 on May 18, 2008, 01:35:25 PM
I think EBA has been 20 for a while. But thats how much I payed for it and I considered it worth it. You can't play that with sound off though.
As for SFC? I don't know, it depends on how much you like Star Fox. Thats about it. It's a total fail to it's older brother, Star Fox 2, but it isn't terrible.

Hmm, I guess so. But I have to say, I don't have a whole lot of sympathy here for the most part: the Circuit Cities I've been in (across the board from Nebraska to California and elsewhere) have had the absolute worst customer service of any retail chain I know of. There are two scenarios I run into 95% of the time I go there. 1) There are tons of employees around, except they are NEVER of any help. They're actually standing around doing nothing, or chatting with their coworkers back in the car audio department, and if I ask them to check something for me, they always, always refuse, usually citing unbelievable (what kind of retail store doesn't keep an inventory???) or rote (it's not my department) excuses. OR 2) I search and search, and there's no one around to even ask. Actually, there's often one employee running around furiously trying to help people, a small entourage of customers non-chalantly following with questions of their own, with no sign of where everyone else is.
I know there are good employees who work there... but the culture at CC seems to breed unhelpfulness and a weak work ethic. Just go on YouTube and check out all the bored Circuit City employees either tackling/bodyslamming displays, or wrestling each other in the warehouse, or dancing around in their department, or whatever. I was really surprised by the sheer volume of these videos (but not so surprised, really) when I ran across some the other day.
EDIT: Hmm... I guess I hate Circuit City too! :D

Hey All,
Geometry Wars Wii is now $16.96 at Circuit City. I'm not even a "shooter" fan, and I HIGHLY recommend this title!
Note - The DS version is also the same price but I'd strongly advise against its. Its a bit awkward and slow.

It's a bit disappointing for me, too, but it's a great day for anyone just getting started on their Wii or DS collection. CAG probably got the list from lightningdeals.com, which everyone who hasn't already should probably just go ahead and bookmark.

Ethics, schmethics, we need to sell enough copies to get them to make a sequel with online co-op.
In order to do that you would also have to convince Sega/Totally Games to A. Not use the PSP for the primary build and game assets B. Make it better than Marvel Ultimate Alliance (the wii version was the 2nd best current gen SKU in terms of sales) or the upcoming sequel.

Guys, I totally caved this week and bought Rockband "Special" Edition for Wii (yes, that's in quotes on purpose). I did it for a few reasons. One, I can't wait three agonizing more months to rock out, and I only own a Wii. Two, there's talk of efforts of making the instruments cross-compatible w/ GH4 (which I definitely want, and have money down on). Three, and most importantly, I found a sweet deal on it at Amazon.
Amazon.com: Rockband Wii, $126 shipped, no tax, unless you live in NY, I guess. linkiez (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B0016HM45K/ref=dp_olp_2) (go down to the "New" section, and it's the first one listed.*)
It's apparently got minor physical damage to the exterior box, so is being offered through Amazon's "Warehouse Deals." But it's still Amazon, though, and is covered by the normal stuff that Amazon covers (returns/refunds, 30-day warranty against defects, etc.). And at this price, if I have to (like, if cross-compatibility stays w/ just the 360 version), I can offload it before GH4 comes out, and make a good deal of my money back anyways.
And till then... well, please excuse me, as I'VE GOT SOME ROCKIN' TO TAKE CARE OF WHOOOOOOOOOO
* Just saw that it says "Backordered, in stock on 7/21. Mine also said "backordered, available on the 16th" when I bought it on the 15th, and it shipped on the 16th, so it seems to be a good indicator.

Hey Kairon, did you pick up Target Terror yet? How is it?
It's... it's your typical arcade shooter game... hmm...
the good stuff is that it really is meant to be cheesy and zany, so the pixelated real-life character shots are perfectly in tune with that. You also instantly enter mini-games (like that gold cart one, or a ripoff of Missile Command) in the middle of the game when you accomplish specific level-specific milestones, like shooting 25 barrels in a level, or 12 security monitors or the like.
However, the game's cursor control disappoints a bit. Sometimes it seems slightly jarring. Sometimes, the game "hiccups" and snags for a couple seconds, making it hard to know if you hit someone or where your cursor went for that split second that the screen freezes. Also, it doesn't have a "calibrate option" like Ghost Squad had, meaning it's RE:UC style cursor aiming, not Ghost Squad style gun-sight aiming... T_T
BUT... unlike other games, this one's not a pushover. Me and my new roommate played on the easiest level, and we started with 40 credits (lives). We could only beat 5 out of the 10 game stages (there are three levels with 3 stages (beat the first to unlock the next) and what I anticipate as one end level once everything else is beat) on 40 lives and there was no continuing after that. So if you want to actually "beat" the game, you'd have to put some work into it.

Sounds like good fun, but those pointer issues may irritate the crap out of me. So far the only arcade type shooter I have is Crossbow Training. What would you recommend for the best amount of mindless shooting fun at this point? Target Terror, Ghost Squad,House of the Dead, or Chicken Shoot?

That's pretty slow for a good video game lightning deal. On PS3 day, I watched one sell out in under one minute. The moment the widget first showed me the game, more than 70% were already claimed. I'm pretty sure they routinely offer less than a hundred at the deal price.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: vudu on September 23, 2008, 03:41:50 PM
It was the fastest sell out of the entire day. It took about 20 minutes for No More Heroes to sell out (I got mine). Rayman was up for at least an hour before it was done. Ferrari Challenge and Fishing Master were both up for over a half hour. And Little League Baseball was up for 2+ hours.
I'm not sure how long My Word Coach was available.

I'll try. I was turned off by the hand holding in the first two missions (after the prologue mission) and at the time i'd gotten the Godfather too, so that took up most of my time. I finished that but moved on to Okami... which i only played that one time i posted about, then i moved on to...??... then some VC games.
i'm a bad gamer lately. I buy alot but i don't play any of it. i still have GC games i need to finish as well as wii games.. but i have no time!
sometimes i wish i was in an accident that let me get disability for a few months so i could catch up on my gaming...

I started playing this game again recently on a trip, and got re-hooked. Never had beaten it before, but now that's taken care of. Currently going through all the trial maps and having a great time of it. Man, there's a lot of awesome content packed on that tiny card.
My only complaint is that most of the battles are really long, and they're hard to quit out in the middle and come back in later efficiently. It's especially true in fog of war maps (you've inevitably forgotten the location of that sub that just sank your battleship, that there's a giant scripted event that drops bombs in the middle of the battlefield, or some other random thing that will simply PWN you until you just give up and restart the mission from scratch).

Post by: UltimatePartyBear on October 21, 2008, 07:02:51 PM
Maybe you're just showing up late? Even if I do a search and go straight to the product page, I see the adjusted price. I guess you could try going to the video game department and clicking on the deal of the day link there to make sure.
Now lightning deals are another story. If I remember right, if you go to a product page when it just happens to be a lightning deal, the regular price is displayed, but there's a link that says there's a special deal in the gold box, but I might be wrong. I might even be mixing that up with the stuff chosen for your quick picks (which aren't usually worth bothering with; they are always 5% off the Amazon price regardless of what the gold box page says).

I jumped all over DQ IV at $20. Too good of a deal to pass up.
If you're looking to bump your order over $25 to get free shipping, Amazon also has 2,000 point Wii Cards on sales for just under $19.
Me too! And good call on the Wii Points cards... I've been wanting to buy some VC games (why didn't I know that, a few weeks ago, one of my favorite games of all time – Secret of Mana – was released???), and Ninty started charging tax for me, which is stupid. So, Amazon = no tax, and less than a penny a point! All in all, the day has been WIN in the video games department.

As I said, I refuse to leave my house, let alone try to brave a B&M store. Maybe if I were in the market for a 60"+ plasma TV I might reconsider, but I'm not and so I get to stay in my warm bed.

Although it's still a decent deal. When you add up the value of everything in the bundle (and consider the value of King of Clubs to be $0) it's still a savings of $55. The problem is, most people don't exactly need four complete controllers.

I think my target is sold out already. In fact, most of the Wii games are constantly sold out there. Strange.

I don't know if any of you guys are CostCo members, or if this is super-old news, but new Nintendo-published Wii games are usually $6-$7 cheaper there. Currently, at least, Warioland Shake It!, Animal Crossing City Folk, and Mario Kart Wii are $43.60 (or something close to that).

I believe both Best Buy and Target gave Samba De Amigo for 19.95. The maracas still cost 14.95. Do yourselves a favor and get the game, but you must have maracas, and they have to be for 2 wii remotes. How you get this is up to your own devious ways.

It used to be that just getting your hands on a Wii was an Amazing Deal, but Amazon's running a promotion (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?docId=1000340871) wherein one can buy a Wii and get a game and accessories of your choice (from a list) for 10% off.

Amazon's VG DotD is the Guitar Hero World Tour Band Kit for $119.98 on Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3 (and ten bucks less on PS2).
They've also got the Guitar Kit for Wii for $59.98 as a lightning deal, but they're almost all taken now.

According to reports, UK shops are already dropping the price of Madworld to below the £20 mark.
It’s only been out two weeks, and suggested retail price is £34.99.
Gameplay’s selling it for £16.99, GameStation £17.99 and GAME for £19.99.
MadWorld debuted at number 34 on the all-format Top 40 at launch and quickly fell off thereafter.

First of all Mop it up the link doesn't go to the page you are referring to. Second of all I would go with De Blob.It is a great game with a few annoyances.It takes a while to beat a level and some have said the camera isn't perfect. On the other hand Mario&Sonic is the first game with Mario and Sonic in a game together.So it could be a collectors item down the road.The controls in the game are great such as Archery.There is Mario in the game but no Bird or Toad.Well toad is in the game but as a referee. Weigh your options.

I was actually leaning towards de Blob because it looks really fun and cute, but when I went there today I didn't see it anywhere on the shelves. So I guess the decision was made for me.
Really though, how can you go wrong with something like Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games? It's got Mario in it. It's got Sonic in it. It's got Olympic games. It's like an April Fools joke gone horribly right.
I read the story about how some characters were cut from the game, including Donkey Kong and Birdo. I'm not surprised to see Toad as a referee, he's filled roles like that before, usually in the Mario Party games.

I've heard of it but I have never used one. The consensus seems to be that it works decently, but not as well as the official systems. I think there are a small number of games which don't work on it, and also the controllers are cheaply made and break easily.
EDIT: A bit more on topic, here's Best Buy's deal of the week which starts today. Guitar Hero Aerosmith (game only): $10 Guitar Hero III (game only): $10

They'd be worth more if you kept them sealed, though then you wouldn't be able to get the codes. GameStop sells Mario Sluggers for $45 used and Mario Strikers is $40 used, so if you took store credit then they might give you $20 and $15, respectively. Not really worth it just for Cub Nintendo coins. You could probably do better on eBay though.
Mario Sluggers is a good game though, why not keep it at that price? I'm not fond of Mario Strikers myself but it is still something you might want to try out, especially at that price.

Also of note in the Best Buy sale this week... Naked Brothers for $9.99, with Logitech microphone included.
That's a $25-30 microphone by itself, from what I've seen on Amazon/Newegg. Works with GH:WT, RB1, RB2, GH:M, and probably any other karaoke/voice game.
If you already had guitars and got game only, a sweet deal to pick up a mic. And FYI, Gamestop is currently giving $5 store credit for the game only. So I really got a $5 microphone, and put a reserve down for Tiger Woods. ;D

Silvia is actually great. It's the whole game world is poorly designed around the pair, the bosses are PISS WEAK AND UNEXCTING (not to mention their damage patterns don't make sense) while the regular enemy hordes and minibosses are harder than the bosses, and the music is boring.
If you complete VJ1 on adult, you immediately see how VJ2 is broken.
Oh, and the GC version was rushed and unoptimized so the PS2 version could be the "base" platform, shown in unoptimized framerates and loading times. Capcom can go climb a tree of cocks.

Ah, the Square Tax. Good deal on CT. I paid $40, though when World Ends With You cam out I found it new on Amazon w/ free shipping for only $30. Either it was mislabeled or they had a random deal for it because it went back up to $40 the next day.

Same with Washington. I really don't like our governor either. It's a rolling trend that only the non-sales tax states are probably not going to follow. I only know of Oregon and Montana on the West side. What other states are tax free? Might dictate where I might move to eventually.

Interesting, thanks for that. Although it is outdated since it was last updated January 2008, and Ohio sales tax is now 6.5% instead of 5.5%. Assuming it hasn't been raised in other states that's leaning toward the highest amount, so many of you should consider yourselves lucky.

No, that isn't accurate. Washington is 9.1% and in King County (where Seattle is) it is 9.3%
That and I'm sure some states have a 10% tax if I remember correctly.

Yeah, not only am I living in the shock of getting used to sales tax again, but since I work in North King I pay even more there because of the hike. Ridiculous. Maybe I should of changed my residency to Oregon while I was in Portland to avoid the sales tax...but then I would have to pay income and property taxes. No way around it.
Are there any comparable sites to Amazon where you don't get charged sales tax? I would prefer to also get free shipping like Amazon but at the rate taxes are going, it will be cheaper to order something w/ shipping and no tax versus Amazons no shipping plus tax.

Speaking of which, while I missed the DS Trauma Center deal, I would like to point out that today on Amazon they have some High School musical game for the Wii for just $9.99 or so, and it does allow free shipping (though you have to buy something else to get over the $25 threshold).

GameStop has used games Buy 2 Get 1 Free this weekend, in store or online. And Alien Syndrome's only $15. (http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=1196) Why do all these good deals have to come now, when I've spent my whole gaming budget on pre-ordering import black Wii controllers? Why must fate be so cruel?!
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Stele on June 20, 2009, 04:54:09 AM
Just a warning that Gamestop often increases prices for those 2 for 1 weekends. A game that might have been used for $19.99 last week will go up to $24.99, and so on.
Be best to check regular prices for new on Amazon before you go in there. Or after, and then go back if it is actually a deal.
Especially the Square DS games, are somehow regularly $40, so GS will sell a used one for $35 or $30, which is the regular new price everyday on Amazon...
Just be careful, don't get ripped off. ;D

You just want an excuse to link to your store. You've already had one thread (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=28563.0) locked for this reason. Do you really want this one closed, too? Just keep the link in your signature and be done with it.

Within context is okay. But like I said, these aren't even sales--they're Amazon's normal prices.
True, those are the standard Amazon prices. Now these are sale prices. ;) Lego Batman $20 (http://astore.amazon.com/spyke-20/detail/B000ZKBJYG) Lego Indiana Jones $20 (http://astore.amazon.com/spyke-20/detail/B00104KJ4M) Rock Band 2 $40 (http://astore.amazon.com/spyke-20/detail/B001BXA9CE) Is Ju-on The Grudge (http://astore.amazon.com/spyke-20/detail/B002DC8GVS) only going to be $30 new or is this a pre-order sale? I assumed it would have a higher MSRP. Though if it is basically a haunted house simulator then $30 is probably a good price for it.

I snatched it up at Amazon thinking it was a sale, but then yeah, saw it at Gamestop yesterday too. Oh well. Also the used one at Gamestop is only $17 now or so. I never mind buying used cartridges since they don't really get scratched or damaged as easily as discs.

It trumps Zelda in my opinion. I plays like it, but just feels fresher. I also love all of the quirky Japanese elements in it.
You are a dog that is some ancient god reborn and you have to defeat an evil monstrosity in a number of forms. Plus the motion controls are fun, though they can be difficult to use from time to time.
Think if you played Twilight Princess entirely as a wolf and you fought as a wolf that wielded a strange sword thingummy.

Although this started on Monday, it might be useful to some.
Apparently Hollywood Video is having a sale on its used games. Games that were typically $29.99 are on sale for $4.99(all systems). I personally went out and bought Samba de Amigo, Excite Truck, and Metroid Prime 3 for $16 with tax. Understandably not an "amazing" deal, but if your store is still stocked, there is much money to be saved!
Important In order for the Hollywood Video to be having the same, it must be a store WITHOUT a Gamecrazy inside. Repeat, WITHOUT a Gamecrazy.

Yesterday I saw EBA for 8€ at Schaulandt, that's cheaper than the 15€ you pay everywhere else.
Gravity (DS) is 10€ at Gamestop, I figured that would be worth it.

Amazon deal of the day for Sunday. Tiger Woods 10 Wii for $29.98. Of course that's without the M+. But if you already got M+ with WSR, then there ya go, get the best golf game ever made to date.

Something for our Canadian friends, not exactly new mind you.
Inside certain boxes of Kellogg's cereals there are coupons for either $5 or $10 off any Nintendo product. Redeemable at stores including EBGames, Walmart, Zellers, Futureshop, Best Buy...
I just used a $5 coupon on my Metroid Prime Trilogy purchase... basically covered the cost of cereal and then a little. Next one I'm going to use on a Wii Points Card.
Also note that there's a no-purchase-necessary option... but I'm not that cheap.

Looks like a few Wii games today in the Amazon gold box.
Active Life Outdoor Challenge was the first one, at $37, but it's over now.
So EA Sports Active for $45 for the next 3 hours (5-8 eastern time)
At 5pm PDT, Take to the Ski Hills with this action packed Wii Game
The other two deals are football games it would seem by the clues. Madden for 360 is the current one, not sure about later today.

Curse you Amazon and your super saver shipping. Excitebots is $5 less than the amount which qualifies for free shipping, but the shipping charge was about that much anyway so I couldn't bring myself to pay for it. So I just added Groovin' Blocks as well since apparently it isn't available in retail stores.

And add the PS3 Slim(or older version) to your cart. In the promotional codes, put in:
* 930354 (takes $10 off your total) * 931073 (20% off your order, only can be used for 1 item)
The total will come to $229.99 but you have to pay for shipping and tax. I am unaware of any promo codes for free shipping. For me, it came out to $257 after that. This is still a great price for a PS3 and you can use up your gift cards from the Batman deal etc. The promo codes can't be used on 360's or Wiis. It can be used on the Nintendo DSi.

I'd play you in EB if you ever get it (and if i ever got my wii back online). I whooped Maxi goooooooooood, but he was the only forumer I played. The handful of times I did random on-line matches I whooped butt too. I'm not hardcore enough to keep at it and be at the top of the leaderboards though.. but still, I've got some sweet replays to prove my skizzles.

But hey, if it's an incentive to get your Wii back online, I will be looking for people to add to my friend list once I get into it. Something tells me I'm not going to be so good at the game though so I hope you aren't too competitive.

Books are usually about $5 or so. I usually just add a book on my order if its just below $25. CDs or DVDs will also do the trick. Heck, you can even buy groceries on Amazon, and some of that is even applicable towards free shipping.

Post by: that Baby guy on October 14, 2009, 08:37:49 PM
I bought nine games at Toys "R" Us today, some for me, some for family. I checked Amazon's posted games, and couldn't find three sets of games in any consistent price range, and the discounts weren't high enough otherwise.
The games: Resident Evil 5 (Sister and Bro.-in-law haven't played any RE, but like horror, so should enjoy it, I hope) Beatles Rock Band Wii (Not worth $60 to me, but B2G1 makes it worth it) Katamari Forever (For when my roommate gets his PS3)
Guitar Hero Metallica (Again, not worth normal full price) TMNT: Smash Up (See above) A Boy and His Blob (Hopefully good and worth full price :D)
Rock Band 2 Rock Band Country Track Pack (My Mother's wanted this a lot) Wii Fit Plus (Other sister is a Wii Fit maniac)
All-in-all, I saved about $100 off the retail prices of these games, so I'm happy.
Additionally, the Toys "R" Us guy said something interesting about the return policy: 45 days, but you have to exchange all three games. Essentially, you can get three "$XX," and if something comes out in the next 45 days, you should be able to take those games back and get the new ones. Don't take my word on it, I'm just restating what he said. So while you can't do pre-order games, you should be able to get those games coming out later.
My roommate and I are thinking about going in for NSMBWii, buying two $50 games, getting the third free, and whomever gets the free third game just pays half price to the other one. We're gonna call and get clarification on that return, though.

Stratos, I think what Mop_it_up is hinting at is that if you had the right girl, you and she would be exploring the aisles of the game section of toys "R" us together, picking out one game apiece, then the third to share. No?

What does being single have to do with it? Just admit it, you're broke. There is no shame in that, times are hard right now.
When having a girlfriend means most of your extra money is spent on her and not yourself, it hurts your gaming groove. I would be cashing in on this deal like thatguy if I didn't know I'd probably be spending money on my gf instead.
That's cause you're doing it wrong. I mention a sale or something I want and my girl is spending her extra money on me, not the other way around. Do I buy her stuff? of course, but it's not like I'm sacrificing something I want because I have set aside a "girlfriend" budget. That's ridiculous. She makes her own money, and I'm sure she knows how to spend it on herself just fine. She don't need my money.
"We do it as a gesture"...... those are the reasons men become bitter and end up keeping the high class hooker business alive. Just as expensive as having a real GF minus all the drama. The GFE as it's called.
Do yourself a favor and take her to the store with you while you buy it. If she loves/likes you enough, she'll understand. While you're there, tell her to buy something for herself (with her own money) so that she can get something out of the trip too.

Did you miss the B2G1 Free sale at TRU and Amazon.com last week? Now you got a second third chance.
Best Buy is having a B2G1 sale (Oct 25- Oct 31). X360, PS3, Wii games, $59.99 or less

If I had a PS3 it would be Batman, Borderlands, and that impossibly hard RPG for me. But all I have is a Wii and I'm finding it hard to think of 3 games I want right now.
NSMB Wii..... not out yet. FFCC:TCB..... not out yet. DSE.... maybe WiiFit+..... I'll buy it separately for $20 Metroid Prime Trilogy..... sure.
what else am I missing?

Well, there is Guitar Hero 5, Punch-out, Rune Factory, Muramasa, Cursed Mountain, Boy and His Blob, Overlord and Valhalla Knights. Those are games I am considering getting there.
Just go to their website and you can see what games are available in your local stores. I went through and picked out a bunch I am interested in and found the nearest stores that carry them.

Avalon Code received a universal price drop to $19.99.
This game seems interesting enough. I might try to get it with it's lower price.
I played the demo when it was on the Nintendo Channel before. It was really fun to juggle enemies into the stratosphere. I plan on getting it with my next Amazon purchase.

1.) TRU has a B2G1 free sale, 2.) Amazon.com matched it with their own B2G1 free sale. 3.) Best Buy is currently having a B2G1 free sale 4.) Amazon has decided to once again match it.
Amazon - Spend $80 get a $40 credit (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_85859891_1?ie=UTF8&docId=1000443011&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=right-2&pf_rd_r=0WQ39APMA02J2EQ6NHPX&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=496696891&pf_rd_i=468642) PS3, 360 & Wii only
Quote
Spend $80 on select titles and receive a $40 promotional claim code usable towards a future Wii, Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 game purchase. To qualify for the credit, you must check out with two or more eligible items in your cart. Only purchases from Amazon.com as the seller and made between October 26, 2009 and October 31, 2009 will qualify for this promotion. Only one (1) promotional claim code will be sent per household. Promotional claim code will expire at 11:59pm PST on 12/31/2009. The savings will not be messaged at checkout. Codes will be sent via email seven (7) business days after all items in the qualifying order have shipped. Restrictions apply.
If you knew how BB supposedly handles their B2D1 free sales, you would see that all Amazon did was copy it exactly.
Best buy lets you get 3 games and then spreads the cost amongst all the games. instead of 1st game = $60, 2nd game = $60, 3rd game = FREE (totaling $120 spent) they do 1st game = $40, 2nd game = $40, 3rd game = $40 (totaling $120 spent)

Just posted about that in General Chat. I picked up Uncarted 2 and MGS 4 for 82 dollars. Now I have 40 bucks to spend on NSMB when it comes out.
This is actually a significantly better deal than either TRU or BB's B2G1 sales. If I bought the same three games I just mentioned at one of those, I would just get the 28 dollar MGS 4 for free and spend 105 bucks. In the above scenario I am spending just 92 dollars.

Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on October 30, 2009, 05:06:59 PM
I decided on how to work this deal in my favor.
I went to amazon.com and bought MPTilogy & DSE (~$92 w/ free shipping + no tax) I get the $40 credit, which I will apply to NSMB Wii ($46.99 w/ $10 credit back) costing me $7 Apply the $10 credit (from NSMB Wii) to FFCC:CB ($44.99) which will now cost me $35 totaling out at ~$135 for 4 games.
I also just bought WiiFit Plus($19.99) from TRU using my $15 credit from buying Scribblenauts, so it only cost me $7 after tax.
So I'm about to get 5 games for $142 after tax and shipping which is a pretty good deal. ($65 in credits used)

I got the major scoop on an error in the system for a major retailer.
has to do with B2G1 Free.
Stay tuned or PM me for more details, but I have to make sure that I can take advantage of this before it gets fixed.
If this turns out to be true, I will be canceling my amazon.com orders, because this scoop is that good!! So much money saved.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on October 31, 2009, 02:54:18 PM
Best Buy's Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal is better than you think
it's buy ANY 2 games (under $59.99) and get any game (under $59.99) Free Rock Revolution @ Best Buy is on a company wide clearance for $5 so you could go and get 2 copied of Rock Revolution for $10 and get DeadSpace Extraction for Free
actually if you find Rock Revolution @ BB, grab all the copies you can find, because every 2 get you a free game. Hurry because stock is limited, but any other cheap game (for PS360 and Wii) will do.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: vudu on October 31, 2009, 03:40:37 PM
Did you actually try this, because generally it's the least expensive game that's free. Even if it works with any game I'd be worried about an employee who wouldn't ring up the most expensive game as the free one.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on October 31, 2009, 03:50:03 PM
My sister works at Best Buy, she told me too late last night to take advantage of it. I saved it till I got back from Best Buy because if it was just an error, I wanted to take advantage before it was spread across the internet and then the error was fixed.
ALL of the Best Buy employees at 2 stores were taking advantage of this last night and cleared out all the Rock Revolution clearance games from the shelves to do so. So I didn't take advantage of the deal. The cheapest games that were left at BB were $15 each, but with the deal I have in place at Amazon.com, I would have only saved ~$5(before taxes) after it was all said and done, so it wasn't worth the hassle of canceling my online order.
$15x4 (+ 2 free $50 games) = $60 w/ tax (~10%) = $66 add in NSMB Wii ($45 amazon) = $111 for 3 games I want and 4 games i will never play vs ~$100 for the same 3 games I want on amazon.com
So this would be a really good deal if there are a bunch of $20-$30 games you want and full price games too.

51 is a kinda significant number too.... Area 51...

I was actually thinking of getting Game Party for $10. There has to be a reason why it sold 2 million copies and spawned two sequels, truly bad games don't do that. I'd also get A Boy And His Blob for $30.

Not yet. I'm looking forward to it though. Didn't cash in on Black Friday. Tried to get need 4 speed undercover for 10 but they were all out. I know its kind of a ratty game. But I like cheesy cut scenes and I used to live in the Bay Area where it takes place.
Here a deal though, in typical fashion Amazon has matched Best Buy's PS3 deal. Buy a select game and get a 20 dollar PSN card. Not bad. http://www.cheapassgamer.com/?f=1699

Amazon is going to have a sale on video games for the next 18 days.

Looks like Amazon's doing Wii Gold Box deals all day today. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=cs_top_nav_gb27)
9:00 AM - Avoid the Dark Side (some Star Wars game) 11:00 AM - Be a hero, and take your Wii on a World Tour. (Guitar Hero World Tour) 1:00 PM - Don't be the smallest King. (Little King's Story) 3:00 PM - Compete in new sports events (probably Wii Sports Resort, Mario & Sonic at the Olympics, or Deca Sports 2, etc.) 6:00 PM - Get ready to draw more than 100 unique items to conquer enemies. (probably Drawn to Life 2)
All times in PST.

Need a Wii? Probably not if you're reading this, but anyway, good deal here. Basically $150 brand new at Walmart next week:
Just take the gift card and spend it on the groceries you were already going to buy anyway. My buddy just had his ex gf sell his Wii and 6 games on Craigslist for $175 (Evil and stupid right there), so I'm sure he could use this deal.

Considering Amazon is charging $4 less for TvC and offering a $10 credit for any future video game purchase, and offers free shipping at a much lower threshold (low enough for TvC alone to reach it), I'd say it's a slightly better deal on Amazon.
Incidentally, that $10 credit and slightly lower price happens a lot with preorders on Amazon. Enough that it's not worth posting here every time.

Other websites do that for you. I check lightningdeals.com regularly. It's not organized, but just search the page for "game" and you'll find all the deals. The associated lightningdrops.com tracks prices over time, so you can see if the deals are really special or not.

Fry's could be a West coast thing. Though they are few and far between here. The nearest one to Portland when I lived there was 45 mins away and the closest one to where I live now is 30ish.

UGGG, looks like is Wii Soccer Mom day. A bunch of cheesy music, dance and work out games. Pass.
However, could be a good deal on a Wii charger coming up, here is the clue: Upcoming Deal Charge 4 Wii Remotes with one dock.

Amazon's video game deal of the day is Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for $19.99
I know NFSHP2 is better on PS2 due to it having no slow down in that version, but because I am committed to Nintendo.
LOL, I didn't know that bots could be fanboys too. Next thing you know they will be starting flame wars.
What? NFSHP2 is almost unanimously agreed upon to be better on PS2 then on either of the other consoles. The other 2 consoles had a different devs, and they did a **** job compared to how awesome the PS2 game is.

The blue and pink Wiimotes are kind of lame compared to the black ones. The Wii Motion Plus, wrist strap, and jacket are all still white. I don't use any of those three things though, so I'll probably still get a pink one.

No, the Pink, Blue and Black combos are $49.xx at Walmart.
Anywhoo, I agree with Mop_it_up. Granted, the pastel pink and blue Wii remotes aren't something I'd jump at getting anyway, but it's super lame that the Wii Motion Plus/Gloves don't match. I'd like to see the Pink Remote with the Black Glove on it though...

Amazon's DOTD is these Wii Boss Dual pack remote thingys that you snap your remote into, and I guess makes it more controller like for when you play with it sideways. These are dual packs and come in two variations red/green and pink/blue.
I'm not going to get this and personally don't think its worth buying, but I'm putting it out there anyway just in case anyone else is interested.

Yeah it is, but that's how it is with any shell. Its cheap, its plastic, but it does the job.
Btw, I have a shell thing that makes my wiimote into a gun with a proper trigger. I readily admit it is just a cheap piece of plastic, but I love it and it was definitely worth the price for the games that make use of it.

Yeah, the True Shot is what I have and was referring to. I just forgot the name. But my point is, all these shell things do is just change the shape of the controller to make it more ergonomic in your hands. Plastic is cheap, and that's what they're made of so yeah they're cheap, but that doesn't mean they're necessarily bad. It just depends on if it makes playing with the controller more comfortable for you (or not).

Informed consumer indeed. To be fair, I can see how one would assume as much, and I think that's part of why it didn't sell all that well. It does say "a comedy adventure" on the cover, but even so, I would not be surprised if most people saw the big word "Rabbids" on the case, assumed it was yet another Rabbids party game, and moved on.
For the record, I think that the Raving Rabbids games are solid minigame collections. The problem is not only that there were three games released so close together, but also the overabundance of that game type.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Chozo Ghost on March 15, 2010, 02:05:29 AM

Amazon's DOTD is Guitar Hero 5 (any console) for $29.98 which is good because the MSRP is $49.99 or so.
Also, if you're quick (meaning you check in the next 2 hours or so) you can get the lightning deal for Project Runway which I guess is some fashion model game for the Wii which is only $16.98 under this deal. Looks like reviews for that are mixed, so I dunno... Its your call.

Its either that or you wait until the deal expires and pay $45 (or so)... or alternately, you can wait for god knows how long until the game drops in price everywhere. If you want the game new and don't want to wait, this is probably the best deal.

That's the way I look at it too. I have a rather large queue of games, so for me to pay full price to get a game at launch and then have it sit and collect dust before I even open it makes no sense when during that time the price of that game will plummet.

I doubt you're gonna find a better deal than this. You know you're gonna buy the game, so you might as well save some cash doing it.
Just ordered mine. I should point out that you have to pay $20 now because they send you the eGift card immediately, but when they ship you Mario Galaxy 2 they just charge you $30 plus tax (on just the $30, oddly enough) and any shipping costs (free, if you choose ship-to-store).

So I've been looking for a Wavebird, so I can finally finish Sunshine, WaveRace, and Wind Waker (I missed the GCN era), and as most of you know, they're around $100 online. I've tried a couple third party controllers and they both went to hell. So, I stopped in a store call Play n Trade somewhat close to me, and found a used Wavebird, in good condition, for $32. Not too bad. I would highly recommend this store for anyone looking for accessories for all systems back to the NES. They're game prices are just ok, but picking up systems and accessories at this place gets you some deals.

Post by: Chozo Ghost on April 09, 2010, 01:58:46 AM
The company that made Cursed Mountain went out of business, so if you can grab a copy of it for cheap I'd say it would probably be worth it to do it just because of the fact it will increase in value. I sense that game will end up being a cult sleeper hit that will be worth lots of money a few years from now.

With the high volume of games released onto the Wii, I highly doubt that any of them are going to become valuable someday. The only exception would be one with a special circumstance, like if it were recalled or something.

Amazon sent me the $10 promotion for my Monster Hunter 3 preorder a couple days ago. The thing is...I cancelled that preorder a couple WEEKS ago. I checked and it's not in my order history. I immediately added the ten bucks to my Mario Galaxy 2 preorder, which comes with its own $20 promotion. Win.

I wonder if that applies to the Mario & Luigi bundle too? I looked at their website, but it says that none of the stores within 100 miles have the bundle. I had bee thinking about getting the bundle at Best Buy to get the Reward Zone points, but that only would get me a $5 gift card (you get $5 for every 250 points and I already have 63 points). That $30 gift card could basically pay for the copy of Pokémon SoulSilver I want.

Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Mop it up on July 18, 2010, 03:28:33 PM
I don't care about the colour because I'd be replacing a broken system.
Though I discovered that copying one system's data to another is... a lot more complex than I thought. It's because each Wii system uses slightly different encryption and decryption when writing to and reading from the internal memory. So I would have to alter the data to match the encryption of the system I want to move it to, which I have no idea how to do. Nintendo sure went out of its way to prevent copying data...
That is a good deal though...

I'm guessing by the time we factor in international shipping, shipping to each individual purchaser and a couple of PayPal transaction fees we're talking like $20 per person. Still interested?

It's the Europe version. From what I understand it's mostly the second game. I'm not sure how the DLC would work. The NWR staff just did a mass import so hopefully they can confirm that we would be able to download new songs even though we're in America.
EDIT: Looks like you can buy a brand new copy on eBay for like $22 w/ shipping included (http://cgi.ebay.com/DS-Jam-Band-Game-BRAND-NEW-SEALED-/400136652613?cmd=ViewItem&hash=item5d2a00c745). Might just be cheaper and easier for everyone to go that route. :-\

Post by: KnowsNothing on July 18, 2010, 09:59:33 PM
Thanks for the info vudu. I knew it was the euro version but I didn't know which songs were in it. As for the eBay option, I really despise the company and as long as the cost remains relatively similar I'm still fine with amazon. It'll be faster, I'll know the copy is legit, and honestly I have just as much faith in my interweb e-pals as I do with eBay so I'm not too worried about getting screwed. It's really up to the cost and if people are willing to do put up with the hassle of local and long distance shipping. Also I think if you label the transfer as a gift there won't be any paypal fees. Not positive though.

I doubt they will keep that deal for another month or so, I need to get a new Wii but I don't have the money right now.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Mop it up on July 19, 2010, 06:14:35 PM
Actually, thinking about it, with tax that deal is only a few dollars cheaper than buying a system on Amazon. The only game from those selectable that I would want are Wii Sport Resort and Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympics; one would come with the Amazon bundle and the other has been out long enough now that I think I could find it cheap.

If you live in New York, you get the full savings (because sales tax applies to online purchases too). I see a bunch of games on that list I would want.

I'm not sure if this counts as an "amazing deal" or not, but I thought I would point out that Metroid Prime Trilogy is being sold on half.com for reasonable prices. I say reasonable, because this is a limited edition collector's edition game that was discontinued by Nintendo fairly early on so if you can get it new or used for $50 or less than that is an excellent deal and a few sellers there are selling it sub-$50 so that's about as good as you can expect for it these days.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Mop it up on July 21, 2010, 12:44:55 AM
Sub $50 prices are extremely common on eBay. I have my doubts that the game will ever be worth more than it is now. It still reached a high enough sales threshold to avoid crazy prices in the future.

40% of $50 is $30, right? Maybe it's time I get that pink Wiimote...
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: TJ Spyke on July 23, 2010, 09:53:00 AM
Correct, the item would be $30. The deal is over now though as that was a one-day deal yesterday (maybe you bought it in time though).
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on July 23, 2010, 01:55:35 PM
what you should have done is take the $10 odd the $50 wiimote and then take the 40% off
you might've gotten it for $24 + tax (1/2 off)
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Mop it up on July 23, 2010, 08:15:04 PM
Nah I didn't buy it. Though the total would have been $49.99 so it probably wouldn't be eligible for the "Over $50" promotion.

I saw a bundle at Costco including a black Wiimote + Motion Plus + Nunchuck. I was in a hurry so I didn't get to see a price, but it was all in the same box. Anyone familiar with this deal? It was all in the same Nintendo extra large remote box, not just the separate items in a blister pack or something.
~ Just found it online on the Sam's Club website. Looks like it's running for $60. So you're saving $20 total from buying them separately: 'Mote:$40, M+:$20, 'Chuck:$20 = $80. I was in the market for a 4th of everything and I was wanting all of them in black so I could have 2 white and 2 black complete remotes.
Looks like some 3rd party sellers on Amazon are also offering the same bundle for the same price.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Morari on July 24, 2010, 09:40:31 PM
You're only saving $10. You cannot purchase a Wii Remote without M+ nowadays, which puts that at $50. The solo Nunchuck runs for $20.
Still, that's better than nothing. I'm willing to bet that you can find the individual components even cheaper online though.

The current Deal of the Day is Tony Hawk Ride for Wii, PS3, or XBox 360, $40. I'm kind of curious how this game works, so this one is tempting... I'm not sure if I'll be able to find it at a price like that again.
Looking at the Lightning Deals that have already come, I'd say I haven't missed anything. The next one up, starting at 6PM PDT is "Enjoy this massive fantasy epic." Could it be an RPG, perhaps Arc Rise Phantasia? The last one, starting at 8PM PDT, is "Transform your Wii controller into sports equipment," so that one is clearly more shells.

Your store had No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle for $37? Their website has it for $30. No mention of a bundle, so maybe your store had a special bundle.
For those curious, Target's site also has Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Sin and Punishment: Star Successor for $37, so they are not just in-store deals.

This is probably being done to help clear out Wiimote inventory to make room for the Wiimote+ which will of course have M+ integrated into it. But if it doesn't bother you, these Wiimotes do include M+ as the addon module.

About a month before the game was released. I doubt it was a matter of not enough copies. Its just that Amazon gives customers VERY low priority if they opt for Free Shipping. Its understandable to an extent, because its free and you get what you pay for... but I think Amazon drags their feet more than they reasonably should with that.

I did free shipping and I got mine in four days. But I pre-ordered in mid-July. The pre-order was available for months and included a $20 credit on a future purchase, and I'm sure that attracted many buyers. So I wouldn't be surprised if the pre-orders exceeded their supply relatively quickly.

This was my first ever Guitar game purchase ever. I understand that its probably no improvement over the other guitar hero games, but if you are completely new to the experience then its just as good as anything else. Also, the guitar might be ugly (in your opinion) but it works, and its compatible with all the other guitar software, and that's all I care about. I agree I paid too much though...

I've found some really excellent deals there with their clearanced items. They might not lower the price of games per se, but there does come a point when they clearance them and that makes it very worthwhile to pay them a visit. I think the best time to check that is right after the holidays.

They do have the current Guitar Hero/Rock Band games (and both DJ Hero games) if you are interested in the music games. I will admit that the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 has better selections though, and buying any 2 games on that big list will get you the $30 credit.

Yeah, it's too bad. Their Wii selection for their 3 games for the price of 2 promotion was a bit better last week. I'm still kicking myself for not jumping on it to get GoldenEye (regular edition), but there really weren't 2 more games on the list that I was really jonesing to get.
Last week, it seemed like Amazon expanded the library of these selections by the end of the week, but perhaps I'm just imagining that. I wasn't paying close attention until the deal was almost over.

Future Shop, and Best Buy seem to have the better deals, but they don't accept hardware or accessories, but then again you can put that credit into anything else other than games.

Not the greatest deals, but Toys R Us is offering a $5 gift card if you purchase a select Wii, DS, or PSP game (the only notable one to me is Super Mario All-Stars for Wii), $25 if you buy 2. Kmart is offering a $10 gaming gift card with All-Stars.

That is the general misconception - you just don't hang around CAG enough. I got Metroid for $50 with a $20 Gift Card. Used that to pick up the new Mario vs. Donkey Kong on sale for $~22, netting it for ~$2 (or ~$52 for Other M and MvsDK - $80 value).
Other scores were Fling Smash with Wii Remote Plus - $30 Wii Party - $20 Kirby's Epic Yarn - $15 Poképark - $15 Donkey Kong Country Returns - $15 Sin and Punishment 2 - $15
Or $162 for $380 worth of games... Almost half off and all first party titles.

Wait, this the first I'm hearing of Super Mario All Stars. Also, it gets a little tricky with all this gift card business too. I bought DKCR for $15, "technically". Really though I had the amazon gift credit from a prior purchase. What I should do is split the gift card across all the impacted games.

DKCR was in my Gold Box for ~$35 at Amazon and I had a discount from a previous screw up for $20.
Wait, this the first I'm hearing of Super Mario All Stars.
Really? I guess you don't read the Sunday ads (BTW, $30 is the MSRP). Kmart is offering a $10 gaming card with the purchase of the game this week.
Thanks for clarifying the MSRP. Yeah, I've been late on picking these up as gifts, but had a lists of known titles to watch for, and All-Stars was not on it.
Anyways, on topic.... I still don't know if I see the cost being right for All Stars. You can get each of the titles (including the lost levels) on the VC for $20 total, right? - granted without the snes sprite makeover. I'd kind of like to see this title drop to about $10, $15 at the max for me to pull the trigger.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: UncleBob on December 16, 2010, 04:34:45 AM
$21 on the VC (SMB2j is $6)
Yeah, the $30 price tag include the "upgraded" graphics and sound, but also includes the artbook and soundtrack. And the ability to play it on any Wii at any time.
But if $30 is too steep for ya, next week, TRU has $10 off all Wii Mario titles - so it'll be $19.99 - if your nearest TRU has any copies left, that is.

$21 would only get you the generic NES versions. This has the re-makes that have better graphics, better audio, save features (so you don't have to just quit the VC game to freeze that spot), bug fixes, etc. The game is more than worth $30. The only complaint I really have is that it forces you to play the game in 4:3 mode (meaning you will have black borders on the sides of the screen).

Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on December 19, 2010, 10:26:21 PM
His deals are misleading if I read the follow-ups correctly.
They are from applying various credits from previous purchases during deals while also applying employee discounts.
So using a $20 credit from a previous purchase while doing a B2G1 Free sale while also using his 15% Employee discount = each game costing much less than you would normally find them.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: UncleBob on December 20, 2010, 12:33:25 AM
Not on those.
Wii Party was one of the Amazon deals around Black Friday.
Both Kirby and Poképark were from the Walmart Controller/Game packs for $35 that was posted on here. The option of returning the unwanted controllers was well discussed on CAG. While I have no problems with returning them for the $20 shown on the receipt, there are those who have even done no-receipt refunds where the controllers will net you ~$40 in store.
My employee discount didn't apply to these purchases - and it's only 10% anyway. :p

The NYKO Wireless Sensor Bar is on sale for today on Amazon for a mere $4.99, which is an amazing deal because that's $10 off. I was thinking about getting a wireless sensor bar a few months ago, but I didn't... well I just did. Add this to an order over $20 and you can get free shipping for it.

GameStop is giving $100 trade-in credit for a DSi XL if you pre-order a 3DS, and $75 for a DSi...and $50 for a DS Lite. Not sure if that's AMAZING or not though.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: TJ Spyke on January 27, 2011, 01:03:57 PM
They are really good IMO. Of coarse, I plan to keep my DSi (especially since we don't know details on transferring content to the 3DS yet).
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on January 27, 2011, 01:09:42 PM
I can tell you one detail. You are gonna need your DSi on hand to transfer the content that is currently on it over to your 3DS(which you will also need on hand). So if you plan on keeping that content which you already "own", then I wouldn't suggest trading in the DSi for a Pre-order of a 3DS.

If you are a Reward Zone member at Best Buy, you can get 500 free points (equal to a $10 gift card) if you pre-order Mario Sports Mix before February 7.

Post by: BranDonk Kong on January 27, 2011, 02:13:18 PM
You could buy another DSi, transfer your info to it, trade in your DSi, get the 3DS, move your info over and return the other DSi...but that's a hassle.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for DS & GBA
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on January 27, 2011, 02:21:38 PM
Unless GS will take Promissory Notes of intent to trade in DSi at time of 3DS pick up (only after transfer is complete).
But I'm sure that defeats their plan of selling as many used DSi's to uninformed customers for a small discount before they find out about the 3DS.

I just checked my account and it turns out that the $20 Amazon GC had only cost me $5 from LivingSocial*, so I actually bought M:OM for only $5.
Unfortunately, Amazon had a mix up with my order and had to cancel it, but now it's all worked out and they just shipped it yesterday from a 3rd party at the same price that I had bought it for originally.

I asked an employee at GameStop about the DSi trade in deal, and she said that you can trade in more than one and still get that additional equal amount for your trade (has to be towards a 3DS of course). I can get DS Lites pretty cheap (broken, that I can fix), so I can potentially get a super cheap (if not free) 3DS if I get working. So far I have a DSi ($75), I can probably get 2 or 3 DS Lites ($50 each) and be well on my way by 2/20/11 (when the deal ends).

COD BLACK OPS for the Wii and DS are the deal of the day today on Amazon. Today only the Wii version is only $29.99 and the DS version is only $14.99. These are excellent prices and probably the lowest its ever been since the game launced, so if you haven't got it yet right now would be an excellent time to do so. But remember that its only for today, so hurry it up.

Super Mario All-Stars: Limited Edition will be back on March 13th.
For those of you who missed it the first time around, it looks like its going to come back and will be at the $29.99 price. It looked like the game had been discontinued as it was out of stock, but I was looking on amazon and it looks like its going to come back into stock, so that's good news if you missed it the first time around.
I would say its worth it, because even though you could buy the games on the virtual console for a bit cheaper, its much better to have them all on a disc. In my opinion anyway.

Not to mention that the All-Stars versions have improved graphics and more features. I got the game shortly after it was released because I didn't want to encounter what happened with Metroid Prime Trilogy (which is almost impossible to find now).

Epic Mickey is the Video Games Deal of the Day on Amazon today for $19.99. That's the lowest price I've seen it, and its possibly as low as you'll ever find it so if you don't already have it you might as well grab it now.
I bought a copy even though I don't have a DS. Now I sure hope to find a Lite on clearance soon...
I'm planning on parting with my wife's DS lite if you're interested. It's a pink Chrome DS lite, and it's been used very lightly, so it should be in good shape. I'll also add-in the case we bought for it.
If not, that's fine. I just figured it would save me the trouble of having to list it on ebay.

You're probably better off getting a new one now that they're $100. My wife's DS Lite is in good condition and I'm selling it with a case and maybe a game, but I was hoping for at least $75, so you're better off going for out of box.

Toys R Us has a pretty good deal. Buy the Wii Play Motion bundle for $49.99, get a Fling Smash bundle for $9.99.
On that note, I have a spare game-only copy of Fling Smash for sale cheap. :D

In Canada, Best Buy has a deal on Nintendo 3DS games. You can get 2 games for $50.00. The games this deal is for are Steel Diver, Pilotwings Resort and all 3 Nintendogs + cat's versions. Considering those games are $40.00 each, that's $30 savings right there or basically $25.00 each which is pretty reasonable. I now have Steel Diver and Pilotwings.

I see. I guess if you were getting Wii Play Motion anyway then it's worth it to get the controller for $10.
...But it does make me wonder, how many Wiimotes do you have now?

The problem with that deal is that I have the credit, but I already own all the available games I have any interest in. I know the logical response is not to buy anything with it, but I know I won't be able to do that (as does Amazon, and it's a large part of why they're offering the deal).

I don't think so. It wouldn't even scan when I went, and he had to punch in the number manually. The coupon says that it must be surrendered, which doesn't even make sense on a phone.

The didn't have Shred at mine and I don't think I get into DJ Hero from playing the demo units. When I went into my Toys R' Us my first question was if this coupon was real and before I could show her she knew which one I was talking about, showed me what was applicable, and I was ringed up. She had the code at the register. I'm thinking their trying to get rid of them to recoop floor space. I wouldn't be surprised to see a remodeling going on soon. I hope they do it like Target or go back to how it was during NES days with the plastic holders you flipped through to see each side and taking up the paper slips.

I called the store nearest me and all they had were DJ Hero bundles, which I'm not interesting in. I wanted to check out Tony Hawk Shred, mostly out of curiosity for how well the board controller works. Oh well, the Shred bundle is only $22.90 on Amazon right now so maybe I'll go that route.

Depending on your tax situation, that might not actually be much more. TRU charges tax on the original price.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Mop it up on July 22, 2011, 09:51:19 PM
Oh really? Isn't the original price $90, or has it been marked down? That'd be around $6 in tax, which would bump it to $21. Amazon is tax-free for me, plus I have Amazon Prime so I have free two-day shipping without having to spend $25 or more like with the standard free shipping.

Tried to get Warriors of Rock matched (http://walmartstores.com/download/4730.pdf) at Walmart, but after an hour of waiting and arguing with four different people, they refused and told me to contact corporate, so that's what I'm doing.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: TJ Spyke on July 23, 2011, 05:56:16 PM
I doubt you will have any luck, I am pretty sure their price matching policy is only for items advertised in print form. If that is the case, complaining to their corporate office isn't gonna do anything. That is why you should ask a store for the price matching policy instead of yelling at the employees for not potentially violating store policy..
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: MegaByte on July 23, 2011, 05:57:35 PM
It's not. That's why I linked the policy above, which I also brought a print-out of to the store. First they tried to tell me that they only did manufacturer coupons and store flyers, but not store coupons. After I showed them the corporate policy flyer, they just kept escalating it to the next person. And I did no such yelling.

I am surprised you got Best Buy to price match that since their price match policy specifically excludes online sites (both Internet only sites like Amazon and the sites of B&M stores like Walmart). I would say you got lucky, maybe the employee who did this wasn't aware of the policy.

Not really a video game deal as such, but I wanted to point out that today only on Amazon the deal of the day is a 16gb SD card for only $18.99. This would be worth having because the 3DS, DSi, Wii and Wii U all have SD card slots so it is a very video game related thing to mention here, and this is a great price for a 16gb card.

Saving $110.83 is always nice. (PS: also signed up for the TRU credit card, which gave me an extra 10% off...) Also fun - once you spend $100 on Skylanders stuff, they're supposed to send you a certificate via e-mail for a free character. I don't know if I'll get two, since I spent $200+ on everything or not.

Kmart has a few deals going this week:
For the WII it has an $15 store credit with the purchase of Kirby's New Dreamland. It also had Ghost Trick (DS) for $15 that you might want to check out.

I suggest you check out Target first.

So that's why Amazon's going crazy with its 3DS games. Cheapest I have ever seen these games:
Ghost Recon Shadow Wars - $15 Sims 3 - $19 Splinter Cell 3D - $20 Bust a Move - $20 SSF 4 - $19 Asphalt 3D - $19 Rabbits in Time - $19 Monkey Ball - $18
And a few more I think. All launch games, of course, so not the best selection. But if you like fighting games, SSF 4 is awesome and necessary, and Shadow Wars is pretty awesome and addictive, so much like X-Com, but I can talk for hours about comparing Shadow Wars and Xcom.

Kmart's SYW is giving gaming coupons for $15 on Mario Land 3D and $35 on the 3DS system itself starting next week Nov 13-19th. Shop Your Way is easy enough to sign up for and it's free--you can do it online and takes about 5 minutes--coupons will print out when you purchase the game though you have to double check to make sure the teller inputs your SYW ID.
Coupons for these games are valid until DEC 31 so it'll work for Zelda as well.

Post by: Ymeegod on November 07, 2011, 09:42:08 PM
BTW: Zelda's Skyward Sword has an $20 gaming coupon at it as well the following week 20th-27.
I really don't care for my local KM but it's been kicking ass all year with the best deals--not sure if Amazon will match but they usually do.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!

Kmart has an $20 gaming coupon for Zelda's Skyward Sword during launch week Nov 20-27th. It applies to the collectors edition as well though supplies is limited.
You have to sign up for SYW (Shop your Way) and you can do it online at Kmart's online site.

I really hope Amazon matches. I have both 3D Land and Zelda preordered there, and I did it early enough that I snagged a Collector's Edition Zelda, so I'm not giving up that preorder. If they match both that will almost completely pay for Mario Kart, which I also have preordered there.

Yeah, that Wiimote edition sold out fast, didn't it? I'm glad I got it too.
But I checked out Kmart, and it looks like the coupon is for a future purchase...so If I use my SYW when I buy 3D land, the coupon will be for a future visit, and I can't use it on 3D land. If I bought a lot of games at Kmart, that wouldn't be a problem. But I don't. I buy almost all my games these days from Amazon, because that's always cheaper-- I don't pay sales tax (CA). I'd never use that coupon.
Though, if you lived in a state where Amazon charged sales tax, then this Kmart coupon might be more appealing.

Unfortunately all of the savings I got from no sales tax is countered by having to get 2 or 1 day shipping to have the game to me before Thanksgiving. I still feel that if I pay for 1 day shipping I should be able to get it on Sunday but no its Tuesday...
I wonder if I can snag a boxed set on Sunday if I could cancel my Amazon Pre-Order before they ship it...

Just noticed Kmart is running a $50 coupon with $110 game software purchase (ends Sat). I guess we know where my holiday Nintendo games are coming from.
Edit: Not from them. They don't have much in stock that I want to buy.
Edit2: Second fail regarding the $15 credit for Super Mario 3D Land. The store hadn't gotten it in and didn't know when they might get it, as their shipment days are kept secret apparently due to security concerns.

Did you try Prime? They give you like 1 month free, and you can cancel after that month. That way, you can get 2 day shipping for free.
You can get a Prime student account if you're in school and you have a .edu email address to register with. And if you're a parent and buy a lot of baby stuff from Amazon (which you should, since it is often the cheapest price around), then you can get a free "Amazon Mom" Prime account, which is hilarious since our household's Amazon account is in my name.

I did the trial a while back so I'm elegible for it. I was suppose to be able to keep my .edu account from my school as a graduate but they messed that up. Though I might be able to do the Mom one its all in what they consider kids goods.

Once the free period ends if you have Amazon Student set up you can get Prime for half price, $40. Totally worth it if you buy from them regularly.

To qualify as an "Amazon Mom" you sign up for an account, which gives you like one or 2 months free (I can't remember). Then, with every time you buy a qualifying product, it extends your free Amazon Mom Prime membership, depending on the dollar amount. The more you spend in baby stuff at Amazon, the longer your free Prime membership goes, though it maxes out at maybe 9 months? Or a year?
Amazon Mom products are specifically baby stuff (not kids stuff). And it must be products sold by Amazon, not an Amazon affiliated merchant. It seems to be that anything for kids under the age of 2 tends to qualify, things like pacifiers, wipes, diapers, diaper rash creams, infant toys, mobiles, etc.. If you don't have a baby, then you will never purchase enough to qualify, so uncles and aunts need not apply. I think Amazon did this because Diapers.com started to move in and undercut them with free 2 day shipping and the lowest prices around, especially on diapers (duh).

The midnight madness sale coming up at Toys R Us on Friday night is supposed to have 3DS consoles for $130 starting at 10pm. Limit of 2 per family and looks like you need to be in-store, probably standing in line. That really is a killer price if you are at all interested.
If you grab one, don't forget to connect to the internet and download your free copy of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition.

One of Amazons deals today is some discounted 3DS games. Asphalt 3D, Bust-a-Move Universe and Super Monkey ball 3D are all 9.99, if anyone is looking to get any of these titles. Believe this is a one day deal.

This isn't a Super Deal but, all the Skylanders games have dropped to $49.99 (http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dvideogames&field-keywords=Skylanders+Wii&x=0&y=0). I figure this is to let the Mega-Pack take the $79.99 spot.

To update, I sent an e-mail and eventually got a response where they checked and found that the store now had it in stock, but that was days later. There happen to be a bunch of K-Marts around here though, so here's what happened. K-Mart A was the original fail. Picked up Mario the next morning at K-Mart B (which was in much better condition inside). Got my $15 credit and $5 credit for holiday lighting (wtf?). Called K-Mart C about Skyward Sword. They said they had it, but then when I went, it turned out that they didn't get any of the bundle in and wouldn't until Tuesday (at least they knew when their shipments were!) Tried K-Mart B the next day, but they didn't have it. Went to K-Mart D today (Tuesday), and they did indeed have it. Used the $15 credit and got $20 credit and another $5 credit for holiday lighting. Next up is Mario Kart 7.

I just called Kmart since i decided I would just take advantage of the GC with eh SYW membership, but they didn't have SS.
When I asked about SM3DL, he said no GC, just a buy SM3DL and get 50% any other 3DS game. which would be great if I planned on buying another 3DS game at the moment.
is there a link to this GC that I can take in to them and maybe take advantage of both offers?
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: MegaByte on November 22, 2011, 08:05:14 PM
From what I understand, it's an ongoing policy that all new games have the credit if you buy them within the first week of launch. It just prints out the coupon with the receipt.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Ymeegod on November 22, 2011, 08:22:37 PM
Yeah, you missed out on SML3D since it was last week. And I think that 50% any title is good for only small "selected" games.
Mario Kart 7 is suppose to have an gaming coupon as well but not sure the amount.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Ymeegod on November 22, 2011, 08:28:46 PM

And they are having buy 1 get 1 50% off that week as well so you might as well take that $40 CC and buy MK7 along with something else. :0.

Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on November 26, 2011, 11:52:59 PM
Metallic Rose 3DS (169.99) -(minus)- Nintendo Dogs ($39.99) = 129.99
$129.99 - $40 Gift Card = 89.99
$89.99 - Bobble head Stylus Set ($11.99) = $78.00
So if you think about it, you are buying the 3DS for $78.00 Sounds like a pretty good deal.

PilotWings is great. The only real complaint is the lack of content, but for $5 it's a no brainer.

Found some good deals at walmart for the WII's CCP controller. Found James Bond 007: GoldenEye and MH3 bundles for $10 freaking dollars. It's in store only and varies but others have found it for that price in othe states so good luck. Also found a couple more Zelda Skyward Sword collections (still retail price) at Kmart/Sears.

You guys seem to get some amazing deals. Much cheaper than anything I have seen over here, even when you take into account the currency and other factors.
Just wondering as a UK gamer do UK deals ever get posted on here? I have been looking through the last few pages and can't seem to find any deal.
Only way I managed to pick up some cheap Wii games recently was some pre owned games from Game. I got Zack & Wiki for a fiver and Xenoblade for a tenner, both in great condition. Also picked up Pikmin play control and Warioland but neither of those particularly cheap (£13 and £15 respectively). They were all labled clearance on my receipt and in general it almost looked like the store was trying to reduce its already tiny amount of Wii game stock even further.

This link doesn't work. But the game has been $15 on Walmart.com for a few months now, and it's also been "Out of stock for shipping" for a few months too. It says that in-store prices vary, so I haven't gone to see if it's the same price in a store.

PilotWings is great. The only real complaint is the lack of content, but for $5 it's a no brainer.
After grabbing PilotWings at $10, I found it was better as EB Games trade fodder than as something to keep. But still got great value between the time spent playing and the eventual trade-in.
Deal of the weekend for me: Real Canadian Super Store has a lot of video games on clearance pricing. Grabbed Rune Factory 2 (DS) for $6 and Professor Layton and the Curious Village for $3.50. (Layton is still a trade qualifier at EB Games, which means you can trade for a $50+ game if you have another qualifier to go with it...)

Just be prepared to come away empty-handed. It's definitely a YMMV type of deal, depending on what your local store has in stock. Doesn't hurt to check though! (By the way: I had to request price checks for the games as they were sitting in a clearance bin but weren't marked with updated pricetags.)

This week, Walmart did some clearance price changes on a lot of older video game stock. Many, many titles went down to $5.
A lot of this was older sports titles, so if you've got a hankerin' for some Madden 09, rush to your nearest ghetto Walmart now.
Aside from that, there were some gems. The AC/DC Track Pack went down to $5 (though the bundles with the shirt are still $30).
More importantly, Metroid Prime 3, Wario Ware Smooth Moves and Pokémon: Battle Revolution went down to $5 as well. Managed to pick up the one I needed (Battle Revolution) and a few extras for trade.
So, good luck hunting and post your finds in here so others can know what to look out for.
Again, these are nationwide price changes. As long as your store has 'em in stock and has worked the price change (yes, as we discussed in length in the 3DS price change thread oh-so-long-ago, someone in the store, usually the department manager, has to accept the price change before it goes into effect) the prices are good to go wherever the older games are in stock.

Tried my wally worlds around my area, Syracuse NY and didn't find those titles (well besides AC/DC) but I did notice a few games had big orange stickers on them so I asked the clerk who stated those games were 75% off. They had the 007 bundled (golden CCP) for $29.95 so it rang up a little under $8 bucks :0. They also had the MH3 CCP bundles for $20 which would be $5.
So I didn't get any of those $5 games that I wanted but I still got a CCP out of the trip.

At first I was wondering how you managed to get a Circle Pad Pro at Wal Mart when they're supposed to be GameStop exclusive, and then I realized that the abbreviations for it and the Classic Controller Pro are far too similar.

Canadians might want to check their local FutureShop for some clearance Wii items:
Bit.Trip Complete - $20
Big Brain Academy - $10
Ju-On The Grudge - $10
Wii Play (with controller; no motion plus) - $25
The first item is the best deal in my opinion, although having an extra controller can be useful.
Definitely a YMMV deal. Stock is limited, and you can't check online for most of these items.

Post by: leahsdad on March 02, 2012, 03:36:25 AM
Excellent find! I nearly bought it for $25 this past week!
Thanks!
No problem! Actually, on Amazon (where I do most of my game purchases) there's been a lot of crazy fluctuation, like on a daily basis, on 3DS game prices. I've got my eye on a group of games that came out during the holidays or right after, like Ace Combat, Tales of the Abyss, and Cave Story 3D.
Ace Combat is going for $32.66 right now, not a huge deal, but earlier this week I saw it for as low as $27. I'm still waiting for it to hit around $20, which is my magic "buy it now" number.
But Cave Story and Tales of the Abyss have not budged from from their MSRP of $40. Tales of the Abyss I understand, that sucker just came out. But Cave Story 3D? Is that really selling well enough for Aksys and Amazon not to "cave in" so to speak? (See my pun!)
For some reason, Bit Trip Saga dipped to $20 on Monday for about like 8 hours, than shot back up to $24.26. I got it when it was $20, but it went back up so fast that I didn't bother posting about it.
And I'm still waiting for Blaz Blue to drop to $20 or less, but that also hasn't dropped in price much. Coincidentally, also published by Aksys. I wonder if they're taking a Nintendo approach of price inflexibility. If I was sure they did, then to be honest, I'd probably just buy it at full price when it came out, because I'm going to buy it anyway.
Oh, and FYI, you can get most of the launch or near-launch 3DS games for $20 or less on Amazon right now.

This isn't an "AMAZING" deal, but Amazon currently dropped the price for Cave Story 3D by $10, down to $29.99. This isn't amazing because it seems like the basement for price cuts for 3DS games, 6 months after release, seems to be around $20, give or take (Excluding post-launch 1st party, of course)
BUT Cave Story 3D has been stubborn. EXTREMELY STUBBORN. This is the first price cut I've seen for this game, and I don't know if it'll go lower. It may. It may not.
I've heard less than stellar things about this version, so I'm going to wait. But just thought I'd mention it to interested parties.

Someone likes Bryan Adams out there, because Amazon has brought down Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy to the price of the summer of 69 ($19.69). Shipped!
That's a really good game, and is a steal at that price. Definitely jump on that deal.
It is, and it is! Very fun. And I know this is super-geeky, but whenever I launch a missile, I mutter under my breath "fox two!" I can't help it. It just seems wrong if I don't.

Amazon.ca has an ok deal on right now.
Summer Video Game Clearance, with groups of games you can select from to buy 5 for $25, 5 for $50, and 5 for $100. I wasn't really sold on the $25 or $100 options, but under the 5 for $50 they had a handful of respectable DS and 3DS titles including all of the Nintendogs games and Star Fox 64 3D - all games which are likely to hold some value for second-hand sales or as trade qualifiers. (Apparently Super Mario Land 3D was also listed but sold out.) At $10 each with free shipping, you probably won't find a better deal for these titles.
Get Kingdom Hearts 3D for $10 at Future Shop by trading in a single (qualifying) game. The trick here is that qualifying games are relatively cheap and easy to come across. Notably Star Fox 64 3Di s selling at Amazon for $10 right now, and I saw James Noirs Hollywood Crimes and Lost in Shadow at Giant Tiger for $10 yesterday.

Here's a link to the 3DS games on sale: [size=78%]http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=-1488385028646839312&id=pcat17071&type=page&ks=960&st=Video_Game_Sale_20120812&sc=Global&cp=1&sp=-bestsellingsort+skuid&qp=q566964656f5f47616d655f53616c655f3230313230383132~~cabcat0700000%23%231%23%231~~ncpcmcat232900050000%23%232%23%23h&list=y&usc=All+Categories&nrp=15&iht=n (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=-1488385028646839312&id=pcat17071&type=page&ks=960&st=Video_Game_Sale_20120812&sc=Global&cp=1&sp=-bestsellingsort+skuid&qp=q566964656f5f47616d655f53616c655f3230313230383132~~cabcat0700000%23%231%23%231~~ncpcmcat232900050000%23%232%23%23h&list=y&usc=All+Categories&nrp=15&iht=n)[/size]

I love SSFF3D. Really. It was one of my launch purchases. BUT before you think about picking that up, ask yourself: Do I have Dragon Quest IX yet? Do I want it for $10. $10! (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=-3384946696446268116&id=pcat17071&type=page&ks=960&st=Video_Game_Sale_20120812&sc=Global&cp=1&sp=-bestsellingsort+skuid&qp=q566964656f5f47616d655f53616c655f3230313230383132%7E%7Ecabcat0700000%23%231%23%231%7E%7Encabcat0707000%23%232%23%2312&list=y&usc=All+Categories&nrp=15&iht=n)
Good luck finding it at this point, though. They won't ship to you (I guess their warehouse is out of stock), and of the 12 Best Buys within a 30 mile radius of me, only 1 has it in stock.

Looks like Amazon has some deals on Class 10 SD cards (30MB/s cards).
32GB SDHC card for $20 (http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-Class-Memory-SDSDU-032G-AFFP/dp/B007M51J3I/ref=br_lf_m_1000816791_1_5_ttl?t=slicinc-20&tag=slicinc-20&ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&pf_rd_p=1391534462&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_t=1401&pf_rd_i=1000816791&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0QH92XYBT5N28QYDBHA1)

They also have 32GB and 64GB USB 2.0 thumb drives on sale as well.
32GB for $16.29 (http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Cruzer-Flash-Drive-SDCZ36-032G-B35/dp/B001XURP8Q/ref=br_lf_m_1000816791_1_7_ttl?t=slicinc-20&tag=slicinc-20&ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=electronics&pf_rd_p=1391534462&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_t=1401&pf_rd_i=1000816791&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0QH92XYBT5N28QYDBHA1)

I stuck a 64 GB microSDXC card into the 3DS and it worked. Keep in mind that you will have to reformat it though, because they tend to ship with a filesystem that's incompatible (not that that's a hard process).

Just thought I'd let people know that the KMart deal worked like a charm for me. Picked up a red 3DS XL, and on my receipt (online), it lets me know about the bonus coupon for $40 off of a gaming purchase. The coupon is valid 9/9/12 - 10/27/12. I'm going to use it to get my girlfriend a copy of Mario Kart 7 so we can play together and online with some friends over at Negative World :).

I didn't even look to be honest. I thought K-Mart went out of business like 20 years ago. I remember when one of the last ones that they shut down in my area closed about 14 years ago, they still had brand new Sega Genesis games on display.

Yeah, I recall seeing the Skylanders blue bundle when it was announced, is that a Toys 'R Us exclusive? I'm not keen on paying the full $150 for it, even though it contains a game I don't own, but that blue is tempting... Can the figure(s) it includes be used to play the original Skylanders?
Thanks for the info you two though, I might do the $90 deal, that isn't bad.
I was also thinking about getting another Wii to use for GameCube games, since I don't have a component cable for my actual GameCube, though I don't think I can get those new anymore. I may end up with three or four systems after this generation concludes...

Quick question... I had a hard enough time keeping 3D in lock with the original 3DS when it was on display in stores. It seems that it's even harder to do with the larger version when I saw it in stores. Without them side by side, it's hard to say. Anyone else notice it being harder to focus 3D on the larger screens?

Awesome, thanks for the data point. Your second point of deepness is interesting. I recall being fairly impressed with the amount of 3D seen in street fighter when seeing it on store shelves on a 3DS. The slider made a noticeable impact. On the demo of NSMB2 today in the store, I didn't get that same level of depth at all and the slider didn't seem to have much impact.

For WII U owners--you might want to check your local Target next Sunday (12/16-23rd) for their buy 2 get 1 free deals. Some games were discounted by $10 (depending on your store but mine had every WII U title at $40-50).
Also Target has $10 GC with $50 purchase (http://coupons.target.com/friends-and-fans-coupons#?lnk=)going on now so I ended up with two tranactions: Purchased an $50 GC and got another $10 free (used their Target Red card so I didn't pay taxes).
Do the math: 1-game $50 2-game $50 3-3rd game Free (buy 2get 1 free) 4--Apply $20 worth of free GC's 5--apply taxes + red card discount (3%) --8% NY tax minus 5% RC discount
Equals roughly $27.50 for New WII U games enjoy your holidays :0.

Mutant Mudds is an infinitely better value at $9 on the 3DS than it is at $1 on the iPhone because the 3DS game has physical controls. The game is wildly overpriced on mobile platforms when you factor in the touch controls.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on February 27, 2013, 09:07:56 AM
So, what you're saying is that you get a better value for a game that is able to use the buttons already on the system as opposed to the version of the game where they had to spend development time/money to design in-game controls? :D
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA

I bought the game too - and thought it was a deal at full price. I just think it sucks that Renegade Kid either A) Sold me a game that they think is only worth $1 for $9 or B) Is so willing to compromise their product that they'll release a crap version on another platform.
It's either one or the other...
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: Oblivion on February 27, 2013, 10:52:22 AM
I honestly don't feel sorry for you. The game doesn't have physical controls on that platform - which makes it worth the price it is on that platform. You paid extra for the superior version. This is like complaining that you bought a game on one Wii U, and a couple months later they release it on a different system for a cheaper price. You paid the extra money to play it before the iOS gamers, and you played it on the better platform? Who cares that they released it on iOS at a cheaper price?

A) Took a great game that they think is only worth $1 and sold it to me for $9.
or
B) Took a great game, screwed it up horribly (if what y'all are saying about the touch controls is true) and sold to to (literally) make a quick buck.
Either one of those options are unappealing to me and will make me second-guess *any* further purchases from Renegade Kid - how do I know they're not going to release another crap product just to try and make a quick buck off of me?
Not worth the blind-buy. Thus, I won't be buying any further games from them without plenty of research before hand.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: Oblivion on February 27, 2013, 03:40:15 PM
And I'm saying that you're being irrational. They took a great game and put it on a platform that is inferior. Who fucking cares? It doesn't affect you. They sold it to you FIRST for $9 and later sold it for $1 with an absence of physical controls. You're acting like an entitled customer and you're the only person I've seen on the internet who actually has a big issue with this.
As a retail manager you should know all about customer entitlement. Capitalism is a bitch.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on February 27, 2013, 10:10:42 PM
I'm also a strong advocate of customers taking their money elsewhere.
My problem isn't that they ported - it's that they are willing to sacrifice quality to make a quick buck.
If they make a Mutant Mudds 2, how do I know they won't rush some POS out to sell it because people will pick it up based on how great the first game was - only to find out it's a POS and they wasted their money?

Nintendo has other factors to consider, such as not wanting to support a platform that is in many respects their direct competitor. It would also be considerably more of an undertaking than porting Mutant Mudds was.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA

Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: NWR_insanolord on February 28, 2013, 10:50:22 AM
Renegade Kid doesn't have their own hardware platform competing with Apple and it was presumably relatively easy to port the game to the platform. I didn't mention the other factors because they weren't relevant to this case.
Capcom ported Mega Man 2 to the iPhone and are selling it for less than it costs on either Nintendo platform it's available on, are you pissed at them too?
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on February 28, 2013, 10:57:56 AM
I'm not "pissed" at Renegade Kid. I'm just saying that I can no longer trust them to put out a quality product that's worth a blind buy.
And no, not a single Capcom product is worth a blind buy. Hell, with Capcom, I pretty much suggest waiting until the game drops to about $20 and has all the DLC included.

I would argue it's stupid to buy any game without at least some amount of research regardless, but I don't see how this instance is enough to swing you that far.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on February 28, 2013, 11:49:24 AM
Not true. If I walked into a store and saw a new Mario platformer that, somehow, Nintendo managed to sneak onto the shelves, I'd know to grab it and I'd know it'd be good.
Likewise, anyway WayForward is a good blind buy (still kicking myself for not getting a CE version of Adventure Time).
Per your and Oblivion's comments - the iOS version is a piece of crap game. There was no reason for the iOS version to exist - it's not like they were even a struggling studio that had to take on some licensed POS title to make the budget meet this month. They said "Oh, hey, we can put out crap and make money." - and that's a bad business philosophy and not one I care to reward.
Jools' later comments about blah, blah piracy and sales (when releasing the game on a platform that's been hacked to death - not to mention giving it away free recently) as a reason to threaten dropping 3DS support didn't go far to endear me to his company's philosophy either.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: NWR_insanolord on February 28, 2013, 12:00:11 PM
I personally think it's insane to consider WayForward games automatic buys but not Renegade Kid's. Renegade Kid's track record is far better.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on February 28, 2013, 12:03:47 PM
To be fair, I should have specified their original titles - not so much the licensed titles (thus why Adventure Time wasn't an automatic buy for me... and now I'm kicking myself).

I would argue it's stupid to buy any game without at least some amount of research regardless, but I don't see how this instance is enough to swing you that far.
You know, I was thinking about this just now.
I'm going to show a little bit of my age here, but back in the day, we didn't have your fancy internets and digital downloads. When we wanted to own music, dang nabbit, we had to walk 20 miles uphill barefooted in the snow to the local five and dime for our CDs.
Now, I bought a lot of CDs back in the day. You youngin's with your em-pee-three players and your iDooDads don't know what it's like to carry a CD player ever so gently because anti-skip protection hadn't been invented yet and a stack of 5-10 CDs because each disc had about an hour of music and you needed multiple discs for multiple hours of music.
Anyway, getting off topic here, back in the day, I bought a lot of CDs. Many, Many of these were blind-buy titles based on nothing more than the artist. Sometimes, I might have heard one of the tracks on the radio. On a rare occasion, I'd have some spare cash and just want a new CD, so I'd browse the shelf and look for something interesting (I discovered Charlotte Church and her first album this way. I've been in love with her music ever since, even when she went "pop". This is important, remember this.) to buy.
Of course, now-a-days, you gots your internets and your youtubes and your napsters - you don't need to blind-buy CDs. Heck, you don't even need to buy music. But that's another story.
But that's the way I'm used to doing things. I'll blind-buy a product based off nothing more than a name or something interesting that grabs my attention about the product. Sometimes, I get burned, sometimes I don't. Typically, I have pretty good intuition though about what I'll like.
However, knowing that a company purposely put out a sub-par product, and not because they needed to, but because they could... well, that says something to me and sticks in my head. So, like years ago, if I saw a THQ logo on a game, I'd remember the crappy THQ licensed games my mom would buy me for my Game Boy and I'd skip over them. I'm not saying that if I see the Renegade Kid Logo that I'd skip over that game entirely - but, before, based off nothing more than playing Mutant Mudds, I'd buy another RK game if I was browsing the eShop for something to play (which happens a lot). Now, however, I'll probably just make a mental note to look the game up and skip it over for something else.
And maybe I'll remember that mental note, look it up and maybe I'll go back to the eShop and get it some time. Maybe.
Back to the beginning, why did I just *now* remember this? Because Charlotte Church's new EP is up for pre-order, and I just put money down on a physical copy (i.e.: CD for you youngins) without ever having listened to a track off of it. Because I know it'll be something I enjoy.

I think it's hilarious that you're talking about owning CD's and **** when everyone here, (including myself) also had to deal with the same thing.
And you continue to claim that the iOS version is sub-par to the 3DS version, when that's just a matter of opinion and not a fact.
But you'll go on to ignore that and make a joke about my expense or state that fact that you're ignoring what I said.

Post by: UncleBob on March 03, 2013, 01:11:34 PM
I'm going on yours and Insanolord's claim that the iOS version is crap because it has crap controls. Are you now saying that is not true?
And the CD thing - while mostly joking, you should take note Oblivion - we're old. There's an entire generation of adults where buying CDs is just not something they did. It'd be like you or I buying VHS movies. Our parents did it. We might have even bought one or two. But, as for the primary source of "owning" music? Nada.

From what I hear, as far as touch-screen controls in a platformer go, the ones in Mutant Mudds are done very well. I can't go back and play it that way after having it on the 3DS with real controls, but by iPhone standards the game's very well done. Plenty of people have a higher tolerance for those kind of controls than I do.

If the controls are bad enough that it justifies marking the game down 90%, then they must be pretty bad. :D
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: NWR_insanolord on March 03, 2013, 05:12:53 PM
The controls weren't what made them mark down the game; being on the iPhone is what did that. It was either put it out at 99 cents or don't put it out at all.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on March 03, 2013, 05:16:04 PM
Mutant Mudds is an infinitely better value at $9 on the 3DS than it is at $1 on the iPhone because the 3DS game has physical controls. The game is wildly overpriced on mobile platforms when you factor in the touch controls.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: NWR_insanolord on March 03, 2013, 05:29:19 PM
And I stand by that, but that's not why it's priced that way, just my reasoning for how that price makes sense. You can't charge $9 for an iOS game. It won't sell.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on March 03, 2013, 05:57:29 PM
You said the game was overpriced at 99 cents because the controls were that bad.
Now, you say the controls aren't that bad and the pricing of the game has nothing to do with the controls.
But why take your word for it? Why not go straight to the horse's mouth?
Quote from: Jools himself
I knew it could not be priced as high as the Nintendo eShop version, due to lack of buttons and 3D, but I was not sure how much lower I should go.
He then goes on to explain why he doesn't feel his game was good enough to charge some of the "premium" prices that are charged for some games on iOS (that would have put the title more in-line with the 3DS pricing).
Sure, the iOS ecosystem is a different beast, but, for example, he talks about how pricing the game at $1.99 risks less than 50% of the sales of pricing it at 99 cents.
To that, I say, if he had priced it at 99 cents on the eShop, I bet he would have gotten more sales off it than he did actual sales (not including give-aways) off iOS total.
And we've seen that - with Gunman Clive sales in comparison to the iOS and Android releases.
I wonder if Jools would ever be willing to release sales figures for Mutant Mudds like Hörberg did for Gunman Clive.

Capcom ported Mega Man 2 to the iPhone and are selling it for less than it costs on either Nintendo platform it's available on.
i played it actually on the ipod touch years ago(back when i was stupid) i think getting to the end of the first wily's castle with the stupid dragon on a touchscreen is one of my greatest achievements in gaming but its also a testament to how great that game is that i put up with it for so long. i'd get the 3DS version but im on an all out boycott of non-handheld games on the handheld vc.(screw you reggie)

Gamestop restocked a bunch of used Gamecube games about an hour ago. They're all 75% off plus the code 15FREE takes off another 15% plus free shipping if the order is over $30 (based on the original price, not the discounted price). Most of the good stuff disappeared within minutes but I managed to pick up Sonic Mega Collection, Starfox, Namco Museum, Pinball Hall Of Fame, and WWE Day Of Reckoning 2 for just under $10.

I snagged a copy of Mario Party 6, Odama and Burnout (based on recommendations after playing NFS).
For kicks, threw all the $1.99 titles in my cart, upped the qty to the highest available (26 games total) and tacked on the 15FREE promo code. $8.88 for everything. Didn't bite. Don't need seven copies of Madden '05.
Keep checking back, they've been throwing up loads of GCN titles all at once over the past couple of weeks.
Buyer Beware - last batch I ordered, about half of them didn't work. Easy to take 'em back to get a refund, but just make sure you test them as soon as you get 'em in so you don't go over the return period. Also, when they say disc only, they mean disc only. Virtually every one I ordered was in a generic case, generic insert, no manual.

Just got back from Fred Meyer and they have 3DS XLs for 169.99
Been hunting for a deal on one so we jumped. No idea how long this deal will last. Had hoped for a Mario Kart XL bundle which is scarce in the area but this is a lot cheaper and we don't feel the pressing need to get the new Mario Kart. As my wife puts it, "We already have lots of Mario Karts". I'll find it at a deal down the road.
Happy Hunting.

$210 ($230 if you include taxes :P ) for an XL and two major games was quite the steal. That's $70 in savings!

I bought a Wii U at Target today for 239.99. (I had to go to the service desk to get the price adjusted.) Then I went to GameStop and got Nintendo Land for 19.99 used.
In all, $90 less then the black Wii U. I'd rather have $90 than some plastic stands and a tiny bit more space. (And I doubt I'd download more than a few cheap games.)
So, I'm pretty happy with the price.
Now.... Pikmin 3. Bring it, Nintendo.

Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Nemo on May 26, 2013, 11:21:57 PM
I need to look online for deals...
However, I've been slacking on playing games I already have.
-I need to play through Xenoblade. -I need to play through Assassin's Creed Revelations (360) that someone lent to me. -I need to play Batman: Arkham Asylum (360) before buying (or at least playing) Arkham City. -I need to play Bayonetta (360).
Now that I'm over the "hump" of buying the hardware, there are so many games that seem totally worth it (for the right price)-
-Darksiders 2 looks interesting. -Assassin's Creed III (if I like the other one; I've never played one) -Batman: Arkham City (after Asylum) -ZombiU looks interesting. -NSMB U if cheap. 10 year old me can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm kind of burnt out on 2D Mario games, so I'm in no rush to pick this one up, but this is an inevitable purchase. -Need For Speed Most Wanted because I loved Burnout 3 and I haven't bought a game like this since then (I wish I got this when EA was doing their 1/2 price Origin deal).
There are other games that look tempting, but these are the ones I'd most likely pick up first.

So, I got the Wii U on Sunday, went to work, then set up the Wii U, downloaded updates and checked out Miiverse, etc.
Monday, I spent the day with my family.
Tuesday, I went to work (I work at a deli) and I cut through my thumb with the meat slicer... so I pretty much can't play games until my thumb heals (which doctors say will heal fine).
2 days in, and my Wii U is a glorified Netflix player. >_<
However, in preparation for a healed thumb, I ordered DarkSiders 2 and a Wii U Pro Controller from Amazon. It was about $37 for each, and I had a $50 amazon gift card from Christmas, so I only actually paid about $25. I feel like the best deals right now are on Amazon.
Soon, I'll want a stand for the controller and an external HD and I'll be good to go w/ hardware.

I feel like the best deals right now are on Amazon.
Amazon is really the only place I shop for games on a regular basis. Outside of the occasional deals elsewhere Amazon really is the cheapest place for games. And convenient.
It got me to buy the physical version of Fire Emblem because the price was cheaper on Amazon than the eShop. And really, the only thing keeping me away from the eShop is prices. Who knows when Nintendo will decide to lower eShop prices on major retail releases. They may never do it. I'd almost be willing to drop an extra $5 just to get it 'a second time' digitally for certain games. Then I could keep finding them cheap on amazon and still end up less than the MSRP.

Would be nice if you could 'attach' your games that you owned to the system via the cloud. Maybe give each physical game a unique physical code you can only use on the primary system connected to your Club Nintendo account that would allow you to d/l the game to the SD card. They already have the Club Nintendo code in every 1st party game. Just take the code and enter it in on the eShop and then Nintendo could verify that that system is your registered primary system on the Club Nintendo website and allow you to play the game without the card.

I was thinking possibly Rayman Legends, but I'm not sure I'll play it and I'm pretty sure it's going to drop in price fairly quickly like Origins did. Pikmin 3 was going to be the random game I pick up then switch for The Wind Waker HD. Since the sale is only for Wii U games, I'm pretty limited in what's available that I want. There might even be an issue when I go to get The Wind Waker HD since Pikmin 3 is $60 and I believe The Wind Waker HD is $50, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Yes, because it's Best Buy's fault that every copy was bought. You know, because this was a highly advertised deal and is very fucking good.
I hate customers like you.

Post by: ymeegod on November 02, 2013, 09:30:28 AM
Actually It died quickly because of the "flippers". The game trades in at $14 so for each copy these flippers bought netted them $5 and so some of them bought 50+ copies at a time.
Personally I hate flippers but it's not really their fault for wanting to earn a little extra cash but I really wish stores would limit how many copies one guy can buy.

HOLY **** guys. Black Friday might come early to some Discover Card holders!!! (like myself)
Discover Price Protection Discover card members benefited from price protection feature last year by purchasing the BF advertised items early and claimed through price protection.
People have confirmed by contacting Discover that the price protection applies to BF deals in this year as well.
Steps you need to follow:
1. Purchase the exact item advertised in BF deals (same model #) before BF (sale date). 2. Call Discover and ask for price protection claim. They'll send a form in snail mail. (yes, no online application). 3. Fill the form. You have to send a copy of your receipt, copy of the advertisement with lower price (at the same or different store) (You have to buy BEFORE the sale date, which is BF in this case). File the claim after the sale date. You can file up to 3 claims per claim form. $500 limit per item, $2500 per year. 4. Wait for the claim to be approved. Takes several weeks. 5. Enjoy your new item purchased at BF price without staying at lines.

Some of the price cuts are through next week, some of them ended on Thursday, including Duck Tales. I bought the game a couple weeks ago right after it went on sale. Even at full price I think it's well worth it, the game is a blast (don't think I ever played the original back in the day), the graphics look nice, and they really did a nice job of making it feel like you're in an episode of the show.

This may also just be because they were sitting on two dozen unsold copies of it. Guess that's what happens when you sell a 2 1/2 year old game for $50.

I've been trying to get this to work for the last 30+ minutes. The coupons will not apply even though it says they are applied and will show in the cart or at check out. my Total is $65.09 after tax
Where do I see the $20 back or the $5 back? The $10 back is on the next purchase of $50 or more. Am I going to have to go in the store to do this?
Managed to get it to work--my order went in $64.80 - $35.60 (account credit) so $30 for MK8. Blue shells for everyone :0.
So this applies after the purchase and you get it all back in credit to the SYW acct?

I ended up buying it last night. I've only ever used the SYW thing in person at the store, so I was confused at to whether I was supposed to be getting money off this purchase or money banked for my next purchase. Turns out to be the latter of the two.
I also used that $1.30 in credit so that nearly half of it wasn't at risk of expiring. Whatever I buy next will be more than half off though, so that's cool too. will probably be Watch Dogs... to bad I can't pre-order that separately for Wii U as well and bank even more money back.

Heads up all Canadian Gamers. (Don't know if this applies to U.S.A. folks). I was in Staples and they are selling Pokémon X and Y for 19.96 each. They are clearing them out in another sign of the gaming market shrinkage. Price is listed on their website also but you can not order them off the site. You can only hope your local store still has a copy. I was able to pickup the last copy of Y in my city and got 1 of the remaining copies of X as well. (Yes, I bought both even though I'll never touch them in years. At least, Pokémon games keep a high re-sale value.) Obviously, supplies are limited.

Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: Khushrenada on April 02, 2014, 12:55:38 AM
It was part of the Wii boom. Videogames were suddenly big business and everybody wanted a piece. HMV started selling videogames, Sears actually started stocking them in their stores, Staples carried a small selection, Shopper's Drug Mart (Not sure if that is in the states) also got into the arena. But then, in the end years like 2012 and so on, when Wii was no longer selling like gangbusters and mobile gaming took the casual crowd, now these stores are shrinking back on their inventory or not even carrying it at all. HMV got rid of all their gaming stock. Sears seems to be doing the same.
I don't know why Staples is still trying to carry games although, when I stopped in today, they are really cutting back on the support of it. It was only two shelves worth of gaming space. I learned to start checking Staples for games when I went in one day and found out they were selling some and not only that, they had just marked down Pokémon Black and White to 18 something dollars and were clearing them out. Unfortunately, I missed out at that time but that experience taught me to always keep my eye on Staples. They eventually keep discounting titles to clear out remaining stock they have on it so I've gotten some pretty great deals on fairly new games. I don't get their business strategy but I'm on board for that part of it.

Target is having a Buy Two Get One Free sale from 04/06/2014 to 04/12/2014. It spans all hardware.
I was thinking about picking up Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze and Final Fantasy X, but I don't have a third game I really want. There's Bravely Default possibly. If I hadn't already completed A Link Between Worlds, that would be my choice. Lords of Shadow 2 will likely have a complete collection including DLC and other such extras in the future so I want to wait for that. I may just wait until Mario Kart 8 comes out and hit the next such sale. They pop up every so often.

Shoppers Drug Mart still carries a healthy selection of games, hardware and accessories for all Nintendo Sony and MS platforms, never discounted though. But if you are a points collector, you can clean up. I got my 3DS XL from Shoppers for free a little over a month ago. As such, I was able to also get Pokeymans Y from Club Nintendo for free.

Interesting. I like to get my gas from Superstore since you then get coupons of about $2.00 to use in the store which are valid for a couple months. After two months or so, I've usually got enough to give me about $15.00 off a purchase which I use on a game. Last time, I lucked out and they had a sale for Pikmin 3 at $35.00. With the sale and my coupons, I got the game for about $20.00 brand new. That was great. If I had a Superstore debit or Visa card, I could get double the amount back. Maybe I should look into that after all with Wii U games being so pricey.

If you can't think of three games you want, then why not get DKCTF for $10 off at Best Buy or Amazon?

Getting three games is a better deal. I'm not in any rush; I'll want three games eventually though I am leaning towards Bravely Default if Target has it on Sunday.

A few first party games seem to have gotten permanent price drops on the eShop.
Wonderful 101 - 29.99 Sing Part - 19.99 Game and Wario - 29.99 Ninja Gaiden 3 - 29.99
Nano Assault Neo is still on sale (until April 10) - 7.49

That's still too high for Ninja Gaiden 3. It should atleast be $14.99 since it is that cheap used.

I might pick up Ninja Gaiden if it were $20, but not at $30. I reviewed it for us and generally liked it, but sold it when I sold all the rest of my physical Wii U games.

Amazon is matching...picked it up there instead since I have Prime. Been looking forward to this game since shortly after it came out but wasn't willing to pay anywhere near full price since I knew the price would plummet quickly...happy to see that my prediction of being available for under $20 before the weather got warm would come true...less happy that it's the end of April and the weather is still miserable, but you can't win them all.

So, Staples is having some kind of game clearance going on right now. I suggest going to their site and typing in Nintendo as a search to go through all the items. Basically, a lot of 3DS games are marked down to 29.97. The best deal I thought was Yoshi's New Island which is regularly selling at 44.99 so I grabbed me one of those. The store I was in also had a Kid Icarus Uprising for 29.97 so I grabbed that also even though it wasn't listed on their website anywhere. It just seems like I blinked and that game was gone. I hadn't seen it on store shelves all of a sudden for the past month. Glad I was able to pick-up a copy. So, you may want to stop in person and check things out just in case you can stumble on some other good deal.
My hope though is that if Staples is serious about clearing these games out, maybe the price will go lower yet. Also, this may only apply in Canada but check it out if you live elsewhere, I guess.

I'm going to check next week, but the Staples around here got cleaned out pretty well (largely by me on the Nintendo stuff). Thinking I might get back into CoD: Ghosts if I can find it for $20, for instance.
And yeah, I think this is Canada only. I mentioned something about Staples selling games on Twitter and the people in the US started wondering if I was on drugs.

For those that Preorder Mario Kart 8 from Kmart should be getting their orders shipped. Mine shipped today and my Pay your Way credit was added to my account (though only $30.60 and not the $36.60 I was supposed to get)/ that credit expires on 6/30th.

It is a Club Nintendo reward that is not dependent on you pre-ordering. When you register the game on the Club Ninty site you get the promo code that you then redeem on the eShop on the U.
If you did this for the free 3DS games earlier this year (Pokemon X/Y) or last year (Mario 3D Land, Luigis Manions and others) it works the exact same way.

I didn't because I don't yet own a 3DS, but sweet! I'll wait another week until pay day and snag it up. The hardest part is deciding which free game to get. I may settle for Wii U Party since I would never buy that, and would prefer to have discs for Pikmin and Wind Waker. We'll see though.
Oh, and thanks Stratos!

PS- Check your local ToysAreThem as they also have a deal for 40% off a second game when you buy MK8. Coupled with the free Club Nintendo game you could get three very nice titles for a very sweet price.

Target Canada
3DS XL - $100 Wii U Deluxe (no pack-in game) - $150 Wii controllers - $20 Wii Party U - $25 Windwaker (Wii U) - $25, although I think this is YMMV
A bunch of other games and accessories also on sale, although selection seems to vary depending on location. Every gaming purchase gives a "$5 off your next gaming purchase" coupon.
This sale apparently went live yesterday, so stock is very YMMV because deal hunters went kind of nuts. But it's a great time to buy if you have a store with anything left nearby. I upgraded to a new blue 3DS XL. :)

Wow!! I was at Target at the start of the week but I had no idea about those 3DS or Wii U prices. They had several signs in the Nintendo console display cases saying that some deal was not being offered at this location, so it must've been about that.
I did see some of those decent prices on games, though. I picked up SM3DW for $40, Lego City Undercover for $25 and Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy for $21. Wii Party U was also $25 at my location, but Wind Waker was regular price.
I went to Target to look for those AR eShop cards, but didn't see any.
And for content, the Yoshi 3DS XL is $159 on Amazon.ca. Not quite as awesome as a $100 3DS but alright! http://www.amazon.ca/Nintendo-Yoshi-Green-3DS-XL/dp/B00IIFTY7E/

Update: About a week after I ordered, I was surprised to see my system arrived already. The website still said "Order Processing", but if I clicked through, there was a UPS tracking number that showed it shipped pretty much right away.
Unfortunately, I plugged it all in and booted the system up and the image on screen was a flickering mess. Probably a bad HDMI cable, but maybe the system. After a call to Nintendo, both those things will be back on their way to Redmond (actually East Syracuse, NY) today. I can try again in one to two weeks when my repaired refurbed system comes back to me. Disappointing.

Wait, you didn't get another HDMI cable to verify if it was your system or the cable it came with? You probably could have avoided sending it back and waiting another 3 weeks if you had done so. Based on what you said, I can almost guarantee it was the cable.

I just budget some cash every month for game splurges and go to town. I made an entire sub-budget for my games because I plan out months in advance what I will buy and throw in a little extra for "deals" that come up. With some games being "must buy day one" I have to be careful my splurges do not blow my chance of buying a very important title later in the year.
I break up my planned purchases into Legacy, Current and Bargain categories and each game is ranked based on my desire to own them and what the "price sweet spot" is for when I bite on deals.

If you don't have a lot of money, then you really can't do that. :P:
Can't do what? Splurge or budget? I would argue you need to budget no matter what. It is what helps me stretch every dollar as far as possible. I have a very finite budget for "fun" items like games or eating out so this allows me to maximize my entertainment. I don't even get enough each month to buy one full-priced game so I really plan out of necessity.
Do I set aside enough to buy Hyrule Warriors in the Fall and if so, does that mean I can only get Smash U in the Winter and I have nothing but those two games for the rest of the year? Or do I delay one of them to pick up some indie titles or steam bargains? Decisions, decisions...
Budgeting gives you more freedom because you are telling your money where to go instead of it telling you...leaving you waking up wondering why payday can't be sooner. Studies have shown that putting each dollar down, on paper and on purpose, each month is similar to giving yourself a raise because you catch all of the "little" expenses that would typically suck up your hard earned money.
It is not one or two giant purchases that kill a person, it is death by a thousand cuts.

LOL, agreed. That is how I nearly lost my housing and have to move back in with my parents. I pre-ordered so many games on Amazon for promo credits and forgot about the "bill when they are shipped" policy that I paid more in overdrafts than I saved from the pre-order credits and nearly drained an entire paycheck. That was a tough time.
Part of me misses the thrill of spontaneous purchases but I know for me it leads to a path of personal destruction. Not even small unplanned purchases cause a pang in my gut.
I am much more conservative on Steam but with Nintendo consoles I am more willing to purchase because I know the copies can quickly become high in demand post-generation while Steam games rarely disappear.

I am sooooo tempted to buy yet another game that probably won't really play....
WHHHYYYYY!!!!??
That game was on my list though... but I think I can hold out longer.

I got it for 17. May be a sign that we are seeing some of the older U titles nearing the end of their "Amazon shelf life". Going to guess some of these will begin disappearing soon unless you want used. Now the real question is what they will go for shrink-wrapped after they drop out.

I have a feeling that most Wii U games will remain cheap since the system isn't popular.

I'm more thinking long-term. I half expect Wii U to become similar to Dreamcast is standing though the U will have a full life cycle which can impact the demand post-gen.

Gamecubes are being sold refurbished at Gamestop for $19.99. Includes a controller, which is what the controllers are being sold right now for Smash Bros. coming up on the Wii U. So basically, this is a controller that comes with a free console. A perfect companion to the Wii U since it doesn't play GC games. :)

And still my favorite system! The perfect storm of when I had the time and money to get all the games I wanted and be able to play them along with other friends who also had the time. Ah, the memories. I almost got out of gaming but it was so good, it kept me going on down to this day.

Word of warning - if you're picking up a used GameCube for the controller, get it in store so you can inspect the controller. Sometimes, you get third party crap, other time you get first party controllers that have been treated like crap.

I have a feeling they are the rejects they couldn't sell in stores, like the last time they had GameCube games in stock (and any that might be left now). Which means they're going to look like someone put them inside a blender.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: UncleBob on August 19, 2014, 08:57:54 PM
At this point, any GameCube systems are probably rejects they can't sell in-store. I mean, who's going to buy a GameCube now?
For what it's worth, they've actually been $20 for awhile. It's just everyone suddenly noticed. ;)

I might bite on Sonic Lost World being on sale if that's in the US as well eventually.
I got the demo for Lost World and thought it was okay. I mean, it looked great, I'm just not much of a Sonic player. I kind of want it just because it reminds me of SM Galaxy, but not unless I could get it dirt cheap. What were your thoughts on it?

Some good deals going on for Kmart SYWR members (which is free to get anyhow), There's an $20 facebook coupon (one coupon per email use) which can stack with existing preorders rewards.
https://www.facebook.com/shopyourway/posts/934698423223382 After you enter your email address you'll get an email with a barcode, that barcode is the reward coupon code. After you check the game you want in your cart you can add coupons--type in that code.
Managed to snag Smash Brothers WII U for $25 (well $65 with $40 store credit--20 for the facebook coupon and 20 for preordering the game).
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Soren on September 04, 2014, 12:33:30 PM
Super Mario 3D World and NSMBU are both $39.99 on the eShop as part of the Smash Bros. sale.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Shaymin on September 04, 2014, 11:12:25 PM
So I'm really bored and trying to guess what else could come up in that Smash sale.
We know a few of the games already thanks to my local branch (http://www.nintendo.com/en_CA/whatsnew/detail/MIleW7XhJNJBQ6Z0mwM-h8Pw-VyoNQm5), and can get an idea of what comes up. Well, except for Week 4, which is friggin' loaded (Pikmin 3, Tropical Freeze and Farmville).
The candidates for week 2 are: Zelda - Zelda I/II, Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, Ocarina 3D, Oracle of Seasons/Ages, Wind Waker HD, Minish Cap (confirmed) Fire Emblem: Awakening (confirmed) Sonic: Game Gear Sonic 1 is confirmed, there's some other Game Gear games, the 3D Sonic 1 remake and Lost World Mega Man: 1-6 on both, X1 (confirmed), 2 or 3, Battle Network and Battle Chip Challenge F-Zero: The original or Maximum Velocity Kid Icarus: Original (regular or 3D Classic), Myths and Monsters, Uprising
I think the retail games are Wind Waker HD, Ocarina 3D, Awakening (hopefully the DLC goes on sale too), Uprising and Lost World, with Minish Cap, F-Zero, X1 and the Game Gear Sonic for the downloads. Theoretical Day 1 sales: F-Zero GP Legend, Fire Emblem, Sacred Stones, Mega Man 7
Week 3: Pokemon: X and Y, Dream Radar, Pokedex Pro, Rumble U (confirmed), Battle Trozei (confirmed), and Rumble Blast Metroid: 1 (confirmed on both), II, Super, Fusion, Zero Mission Wii Fit Trainer: Duh (Wii Fit U's already confirmed) Mii Fighters: Wii Sports Club games, Wii Party U, Tomodachi Life, Pilotwings Resort, the Streetpass games
I'd say we get Pokemon XY, Wii Party U and Wii Fit U that week, with downloads of Metroid, the two Pokemon games already listed, Super Metroid, and the Streetpass games. Potential day 1 deals: Metroid Zero Mission (given that Zero Suit Samus is listed, this is almost certain) and Pokemon Trading Card GBC
Week 4: Donkey Kong: Returns 3D, Tropical Freeze (already confirmed), DK 1, DK Jr, DK3, DK Jr Math, Donkey Kong '94 Kirby: Dream Land 1-3, Star Stacker, Pinball Land, Adventure (regular/3D Classic), Superstar, Dream Course, Avalanche, Amazing Mirror, Triple Deluxe, Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe, Kirby Fighters Deluxe Pikmin: Pikmin 3 (already confirmed) Star Fox: Star Fox 64 3D (not confirmed, but pretty much the only option) Pac-Man: Pac-Land, Pac-Man (three different ways), Ghostly Adventure 3DS / Wii U (already confirmed) Villager: Farmville (already confirmed)
This is both the easiest and hardest to call. Your retails are Tropical Freeze, Pikmin 3, Star Fox 64 3D (because there is literally no other game with Fox on the eShops and none comng), Farmvlle, and Ghostly Adventure... but the downloads are way harder. I'm tabbing Dedede Drum Dash and Kirby Fighters because Dedede's specifically called out - same reason I picked Uprising for Kid Icarus - Pac-Land, and we'll go with the NES Donkey Kong trilogy. Potential day 1 sales: Donkey Kong Land, Kirby's Nightmare in Dream Land, Mario vs Donkey Kong.

I'm not sure if we even got all the SS ranks since I didn't really like the EX levels. I'm busy with other games right now but we might have to give it another go sometime.
And good luck getting the Toys 'r Us sale! Too bad this isn't happening later this month so I could use it to get the two Smash Brothers games or something.

"Worth it" depends on who is buying... but it is a good value. You'd be hard pressed to find a better game on the eShop for $10. It also includes a handful of DLC content packed in. Wouldn't be surprised to see the game cheaper on Steam at some point - maybe as part of a humble bundle even, since I think the first game had that happen - but this is a great price for a console version.
85 average on Metacritic (http://www.metacritic.com/game/wii-u/darksiders-ii) and 9/10 from this site (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/review/32603/darksiders-ii-wii-u). It's a pretty meaty game despite some technical and design hiccups. Check out some reviews if you want a better feel for the game.

Basically any game that wasn't published by Nintendo is on sale on the eShop right now through the new year. I posted the indie games on their own thread. Here are some retail game highlights:
Darksiders 2 - $39.99 -> $7.99 until Jan. 6. The Lego Movie - $29.99 -> $15.00 until Dec. 31. Lego Batman 3 - $49.99 -> $37.49 until Dec. 31. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate - $39.99 -> $15.99 until Jan. 2. Lego The Hobbit - $29.99 -> $20.99 until Dec. 31. The Amazing Spider Man Ultimate Edition - $39.99 -> $19.99 until Jan. 1. The Amazing Spider Man 2 - $49.99 -> $24.99 until Jan. 1. Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark - $39.99 -> $14.99 until Jan. 1. Resident Evil Revelations - $39.99 -> $15.99 until Jan. 2.

Came here to post about the plethora of sales on the eShop right now but I see Soren beat me to it. I've already picked up Armillo and Steamworld Dig, and just got around to finally connecting an external hard drive so I can download Pure Chess, Toki Tori 2+, and Resident Evil Revelations.
Don't forget, the Digital Deluxe Promotion ends next Wednesday, so it's worth checking to see how close you are to getting a $5 reward. I'm guessing that's part of why there's so many sales going on right now, combined with the people who got a system for Christmas, it's a good time to be putting games on sale. The sales on the eShop have changed from basically all starting on Thursday to updating throughout the week, so if there's nothing of interest on sale right now, it might be worth waiting to see if anything gets released Monday or Tuesday before just buying something for the sake of buying to get to that next reward.

UK Wii U Eshop Christmas Deals are as follows:
All Ubisoft Games up to 75% off until 1/1/15
That makes Watch Dogs £33.49, Rayman Legends £11.99, Zombi U £7.99, Child of Light £3.89, AC4 Black Flag £9.99, and Splinter Cell Blacklist £6.49.
There are a few more that I haven't listed too.
Most importantly Super Mario 3D World is £34.99 so if like me you still haven't picked this game up now it the time to do so.
There are plenty of other deals on offer too, but you can look on the Eshop and see for yourselves.

Not bad. Not as good as it was during black friday (15%) or the two sales last year (20%). But still, you're at least throwing in the best buy rewards points if you have an account (and you really, really should...you get back 5% off purchases)

I'm sure this is a ridiculous question, but I'll ask it anyway - Does anyone have an idea as to whether or not there is an upcoming sale next week for the New 3DS XL? I haven't pulled the trigger yet, but I'd like to either this week or next week (before the April 30th Club Nintendo Elite Member Reward deadline). Walmart has a decent sale this week ($209 for the system + your choice of a game). I was hoping for a sale on the system (without a game), but I haven't seen one pop up over the last month or so.

That's the only deal I see on CAG.
However, while April 30th is the deadline to choose an Elite Status gift, once you do, the actual code you get doesn't expire until 7/31. So you've still got a few months to buy one and redeem your code.

GameStop's doing a summer offer for New 3DS: $100 with trade-in of any 3DS model or Vita through 7/26 (current ad only runs through the 19th).
I asked about this at my local GameStop, though, and he told me that...yes...you have to trade-in your power cable & then buy another one for $10 because...Nintendo. Also, I was told that you had to do the data transfer in-store, so...bullshit.
I asked about this at my local GameStop, though, and he told me that...yes...you have to trade-in your power cable & then buy another one for $10 because...Nintendo.
How is it Nintendo's fault that GameStop requires you to include the AC Adaptor or that GS requires you to buy another one? Both of those sound like GameStop's fault to me...?

Because otherwise they can't resell the old 3DS as a complete unit. Nintendo could also not charge $10 for a goddamn power cable that, before New 3DS, was included in the box anyway. And, incidentally, GameStop doesn't require you to buy that $10 power cable. It's just that your play time with your New 3DS will be a lot shorter without it. ::)
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on July 13, 2015, 08:29:25 PM
A.) They could sell it without the cable. I traded in my cell phone and didn't have to bring the power cable. B.)Nintendo sells ac adapters on their webstore for $5. You can buy third party cables cheaper than that. And that's if you even *need* one. I could trade in and I'd still have multiple cables at home - which is why I don't understand how it's Nintendo's fault that GameStop is requiring you to buy one from them for $10.

Ah. So you're not required to buy one from them to take advantage of this deal. That makes more sense.
Although the idea that "it used to be included...." is a pretty thin complaint. I used to get allowance from my mother. I guess I should call her tomorrow and tell her she owes me for 20 years of back-allowance because she *used* to give it to me.

The power cable is required to charge the New 3DS. Without it, you CAN'T use it more than 10 hours, tops. So yeah, it should be included in the box as it always has been, as was discussed ad nauseum back when Nintendo announced the goddamn thing.

Without a power source, you cannot use it for more than 10 hours either. Maybe they should include a generator.

Man, you're really bending over backwards to find a way to defend Nintendo when no other company in the industry sells an electronic device that uses a rechargeable battery & proprietary cable w/out the cable to charge it. Fine, I get it: you own tons of crap so you're part of the 1% Nintendo designed that thing for. The rest of us? When I get rid of a device, I get rid of all of it. I don't have piles of spare proprietary charging cables just lying around just waiting to give Nintendo a pass the next time they **** up.
Between the cable business & Gamestop's own special nonsense with not allowing a window for data transfer, I guess this will be the second time I have to pass on this offer (they had a similar one at launch).
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: UncleBob on July 13, 2015, 10:14:47 PM
I'm more inclined to blame the transfer issue on Nintendo rather than GameStop. Although it'd make much more sense for GameStop to do something where you can bring in your receipt from buying the new system and your old system and get cash back, the ack-bassward way of data transfer and such is all on Nintendo.
Not sure what definition of proprietary you're using, but since the cables are manufactured by several different companies (I bought a no-name USB charging cable from Amazon for $2) and works with five different products released over a span of seven years that has sold more than a couple of units over that time... I'm not sure that counts as "proprietary".
Title: Re: Amazing Deals for 3DS, DS & GBA
Post by: Khushrenada on July 16, 2015, 03:04:16 AM
Maaaannnnnn. I came here for deals. Broodwars can't even post a deal without a dig at Nintendo. C'mon! Moreover, his facts aren't even right making the whole thing even more unforgivable. I remember when the New 3DS launched as I went to a Gamestop that morning in the hopes of getting UncleBob a limited edition Majora's Mask game. While there, people were trading in their old 3DS's for a New 3DS. (Like a bunch of suckers! Keep your old 3DS's and streetpass yourself. Duh!) While standing in line, I had to listen to the clerks give a few customers the whole spiel on how Gamestop was allowing them two days to hold on to their old 3DS systems to do the system transfer and then hand over the system. I have a feeling it is a case of Gamestop employees just not being trained or knowing company policy. (It wouldn't be the first time someone has come across an uninformed Gamestop employee.) It often seems that different Gamestop stores do different things due to however the store is being run and how much they are keeping up with the company's directions.
If you still want to complain about the power cord not being included, go for it but the world moved on after Feb. 14, 2015 and no one talks about it anymore because, surprise, it was never as big a deal as the outraged internet tried to make it out to be. I'm not sure I ever weighed in on the whole Absent AC Adapter Armageddon Apocalypse but the way I see it is like this. The original 3DS cost $250.00 and came with the adapter. The New 3DS is $200. Let's say you also buy a high priced $15.00 adapter. That means it is still $35.00 less than when the original 3DS launched. And there are sales and offers for the system from time to time so you could potentially save even more. It's a new more powerful system and it has been released at a lower cost than what an older less powerful system was released at. That's actually a step in the right direction.
But, someone might say, Nintendo sells the regular 3DS and 3DS XL at $170 and it comes with an adapter. Why are they so special? A couple reasons. One, they are made with older technology and with its mass production, the costs should be lower so that including the adapter is no big deal. Second, they are obsolete compared to the New 3DS. But there's only one exclusive New 3DS game, you say. Irrelevant. If you don't own a 3DS and were to buy a system, there is no reason to buy an old 3DS. The New 3DS is faster, better designed and has additional features that the old 3DS lacks. The only reason I ever hear is that some people like the smaller screens of a regular 3DS. While I have noticed a bit of a sharper look with the regular 3DS when comparing the two, I've still ended up being perfectly fine with the New 3DS's screen and use it regularly now while I haven't even played the regular 3DS for a couple months. With the New 3DS being the better choice to buy, why not give the old 3DS systems some sort of advantage by including the AC Adapter? Now it has a feature the New 3DS doesn't have. It's not much but apparently it is enough for some and may just help sell a few more of those older systems yet.
Now let's get some real deals in here.

Have people noticed that the price for I've Got to Run on Wii U eShop is $0.01? Pretty convenient timing given the recent guest appearance on RFN.
Oh, and the 3DS release is $0.13 (maybe slightly different in US).
Endless runner type games aren't really my thing... but it's hard to argue against the value here.

That was about what happened with me - with less than 20 cents in my account, this seemed like about the best deal that would pop up.
Interesting to note that the price dropped early for these games, before the normal Thursday eShop update. I guess that I should have just waited for the regular announcement to come out though.

Target has a buy 2 get 1 free sale going on through Saturday. You can also get a 10% off coupon if you download their wishlist app and there's a 5 off 50 coupon that can be applied as well (TGTE2RSY). There's also a 15% off coupon from their registry app that some people managed to use but it seems like a lot of people were having issues so I was happy with the 10% and $5 off, plus another $5 or so from the red card. Can get 3 $60 games for just over $100 after tax, not bad, especially since so many Nintendo games never drop in price.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Mario Party 10, and Snoopy's Grand Adventure are all $20 off on Black Friday at Toys R Us.

I got it. Quite enjoying the game so far. The wheel spin to choose a level is indeed a bit tedious but so far, every time I have re-visited a level, I find different paths or things to do/collect. So the variety has held up. Maybe that's part of the game design? You are expected to go through levels a few times at least? Anyway, totally worth $15. And the figure is mighty cute.

It's easy to cheese the wheel, because as soon as you press the stop button, it eventually rolls around to the space you had pressed stop over. Plus, you can buy roulette pieces to influence your luck.
It's still a needless feature for the game that I otherwise really enjoyed. Plus, you can pick any level you want after you beat a world.

Aw nuts. Amazon.ca has Animal Crossing: Amiibo Party on sale at $28.98 and the Amiibo 3-pack of Reese, Cyrus and K.K. on sale at $14.49. Had I waited, I could have saved another $20.00 on that bundle. In addition, pretty much all Animal Crossing Amiibo are 50% off and $7.99 each with the exception of Kicks and Mr. Resetti. So, if you were looking to get a few more AC Amiibo figures, this may be the time to take advantage of that. Or maybe they'll drop further. Who knows?
Apparently, this drop in price has made Amiibo Party a #1 best seller on Amazon. While taking a look at the best sellers, I was surprised to see that Minecraft Wii U was getting a physical release next month. Some how I'd missed that info.

Ugh... I want this one. Keen on getting the game, and even though I'd rather own on console it sounds like this version is actually the better purchase? It does seem like a good price, especially with so many games being more expensive in Canada lately.
Sadly, my budget just doesn't support it right now after being on a game buying binge recently (and with the latest Dragon Quest 3DS remake coming soon via preorder). On the upside, I'm still putting off a New 3DS purchase even though my 3DS XL hinge has officially busted. Not buying this game makes that delay even easier.
The Fire Emblem Fates deal interests me. It's almost a 2 games for one price which is what I was kind of waiting for on that once I was unable to come close to securing the special edition all-the-games-in-one bundle.
I'm still bitter about missing the all-in-one cart. Getting content via DLC isn't the end of the world, but having everything on a cart properly would have been HUGELY preferable for me and I was willing to pay for that privilege... just not given any opportunity outside of paying huge markup to second-hand scalpers.

Remember, it's cheaper and easier to just buy one and download the other two if it comes to it.

$30 is an amazing deal for Fire Emblem Fates in Canada. I'm actually a bit surprised to see them hit that price in a sale so quickly.

I wouldn't call this an amazing deal per se, but there's a game that is honest-to-god free on the North American eShop right now: The First Skunk Bundle.
Claiming this (and then cancelling the download) will give 30 My Nintendo gold coins, which can be cashed in toward an actual good game like noted AM2R demake Metroid 2: Return of Samus (the best Metroid game ever).

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE already sold out on Amazon.ca but still available at BestBuy.ca
But it is one penny short of qualifying for free shipping and there is nothing else I want to buy and I'm not paying an additional $11 just for shipping. Probably gonna give it a pass.
This game will come to Switch anyway, right ;)

Post by: Khushrenada on November 28, 2016, 05:38:57 PM
Buy a pack of gum or some batteries maybe. For myself, I decided to take the gamble on Tokyo Mirage Sessions at that price plus the lowering of Star Fox Zero was an acceptable price threshold I was willing to take it as well so my shipping was covered that way. I would have loved to see it $5.00 less and into the $30's range since I doubt it will ever get to the $23.00 price like lolmonade posted it did for the US earlier. Still, for being that close and the savings from the reduced TMS, I decided to pull the trigger on them both.
At this point, the only major Wii U games I'm looking to add to my collection are Paper Mario Color Splash and Zelda: BotW. There are others I'm on the lookout for like Sonic: Lost World, Game & Wario or Ducktales Remastered, for instance. If I acquire them at a good price, great. If not, I'm not going to be regret it. Plenty of other stuff I still should and could play anyways.

Really upset I seemed to have missed out on this deal but maybe someone else can take advantage of it.
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is $14.97 at Best Buy Canada. The weird thing is the price is only on their website. If you go into the store, the price on the shelf shows a sale price of $39.99. Went to a location this morning to try and pick one up but they couldn't find the last copy they were supposed to have and other stores in my area all seem to be sold out. Argh!!!

Hello Canada! Both Amazon Canada (https://www.amazon.ca/Star-Fox-Zero-Wii-U/dp/B00ZRZTT3W%3FSubscriptionId%3D0SS63947Z47JATV0JD82%26tag%3Dpric0e-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB00ZRZTT3W) and Best Buy Canada (http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/nintendo-star-fox-zero-wii-u-wuppbfxe/10295486.aspx?) are selling Star Fox Zero (With Star Fox Guard) for $39.99. Lowest price evah! methinks. I tried Star Fox from the library once. It was very enjoyable. Would like to try the co-op mode. The kids at Pietriots raved about the game. (https://pietriots.com/2016/07/22/star-fox-zero-review/) More than once (https://pietriots.com/2016/04/24/star-fox-zero-flying-through-the-bullshit/) They also really liked Star Fox Guard (https://pietriots.com/2016/05/27/star-fox-guard-miyamoto-defense/)
All that said, I am still undecided if I will buy the game or just rely on the library copies.
I should buy it, right?
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: Khushrenada on April 05, 2017, 03:24:35 PM
I bought it earlier in the deal I mentioned a few posts above at $44.99 so this $5.00 less deal you mention is indeed the cheapest offered in Canada so far. I didn't mind buying it at $45.00 since that's a reasonable price for console games these days and it is 2 games in one. Plus, I like the Star Fox franchise for whatever reason so I nabbed it although I haven't played or tried it yet. However, it is one of the Wii U games in my collection I do most want to get around to along with Captain Toad Treasure Tracker.
Also, I like Pietroits game reporting as well. Shame Grubdog doesn't think he has the time to do any writing for the time being since his take on games is probably the viewpoint I'm most interested in these days.

Hey Canada (and the U.S., I assume) If you got the bucks, the gold PS4 (in honour of E3, I think) is about the best deal on a PS4 I've seen so far. No bundled game but includes 1TB hard drive for C$329. And if you hate it, it probably has decent re-sale value being a limited edition funky colour https://www.ebgames.ca/PS4/Games/731935 http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/playstation-4-1tb-limited-edition-console-gold/10733196.aspx

So, not sure if this is happening elsewhere but I stopped in Best Buy today on a lark and discovered that Star Fox Zero / Star Fox Guard bundle was being sold for $19.99. Mario Party 10 with Bowser Amiibo was also being sold for $19.99. There might have been a couple other insane prices but those stuck out to me since I probably paid around double for those games. If only I knew!
At another Best Buy, they had Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest on sale for $19.99. Dragon Quest VII was down to $24.99, I think. Again, there were probably some other games discounted or highly discounted that I forget but those just stuck out to me because I was surprised to see them priced at that level.
Oddly enough, when I go to Best Buy online, none of these games are for sale at these prices. At the first Best Buy, Kirby Planet Robobot was being sold for $49.99 yet at the second location it was on sale for $39.99. I have no idea if individual stores are just doing their own sale and pricing but I find that hard to believe. However, I thought I might as well get the word out that you may want to check into your local Best Buy and see if there are some discounts going on with the Nintendo games there since you won't find signs of it on their webpage. Who knows what you might find? Also, these prices are all Canadian so not sure if these price drops would be occurring elsewhere or only in Canada.

I've noticed that at Walmarts here too. The local managers probably adjust their sales based on the area's demand. It sure makes me always check the game sections of every store I enter, just in case. I paid $30 for Star Fox, so I'm not too bummed out.
It's going to build up as we get further ways from the Wii U era, so gobble up the lesser know titles while they are still available. Reminds me I need to grab DQ8 before that disappears.

As long as you want one, I'd get it now if you manage to come across one at MSRP. Switch has been pretty hard to come by for the past few months. It's going to be hella impossible to find closer to the holidays.

Probably a YMMV type of deal, but my (east coast, Canadian) Walmart has Bravely Second End Layer and Hyrule Warriors Legends (3DS) for $20 each.
Those were two of the bigger omissions from my 3DS library, so I was happy to see that tonight. Might be worth checking your local store if it sounds like a good deal? Now I'm only watching for a good deal for Etrian Untold 2!
Also saw Little Battlers Experience and Gravity Falls 3DS games marked down to $5 each, but neither called out to me. My backlog is already too chubby...

That's a really good deal for those games. Oddly enough, both were discounted early this year by Amazon.ca so I decided to pick them up then (and Shaymin did also at the time) but with tax, I paid $33.59 each. I should have waited. It's not like I've even gotten around to them since then but I didn't think those games would get much lower than that. Oh how wrong I was. Really need to finish building that time machine....

It would seem that Switch availability can vary pretty wildly based on where people live. In my area, the grey Switch set has been plentiful for about six weeks now, however the neon bundle is usually sold out. I dunno if that means it's more popular, or that they produce less of them.

Yeah, I see plenty of grey bundles and even the odd Splatoon bundle. Neon is the hardest to find. It took a few weeks of watching Amazon for a pair of Neon controllers to reappear at MSRP so they do seem to be the favored peripherals. Plenty of Pro controllers everywhere I go so they seem to have fixed that constraint at least.

Hmm... not sure if this is a deal or not...
RPG Maker FES (3DS) is available from amazon.ca right now for $28 + $3.50 shipping. That's half price, and might be interesting to some? The game hasn't reviewed all that well, but probably still one of the best game creation tools available on the platform unless you download SmileBasic (which requires a lot more work to see results).
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B06X1D3B96
Hard to say if the price will drop much below this or not - it doesn't seem to be that popular, so maybe waiting longer is worthwhile? Of course, it could also just disappear. Many people might be better off just using the free "Player" download anyway, sampling the uploaded games without having to pay anything?

For those on the fence for Civ 6, it is now cheaper to buy on the eShop than the owest price the physical has been. Amazon has physical for $37.25 but will charge sales tax. eShop is at like $40.37 and since I pay no sales tax there AND get the 5% gold coin kickback it ends up being less. Was planning to wait for the DLC to be confirmed or a Gold Edition to drop, but a buddy picked it up on Switch so I think I will just cave on it.
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: ejamer on June 13, 2019, 10:26:28 AM
Remember when one of the selling points for digital content was that it could be less expensive since you removed any physical media, shipping, or costs associated with middle-men?
And the reality: digital delivery almost always costs more, because they monopolize the market and buyers have no competition.
**feeling salty**
Title: Re: Amazing Deals!
Post by: nickmitch on June 13, 2019, 11:55:15 AM
Part of the problem there is the middle men are still are big part of the business model. Retailers don’t want to be undercut by digital shops, so games are often priced the same. While it’s a little counter-intuitive, prices on physical games can go down below digital if there’s really poor turnover and retailers want to clear out inventory. So that is one way retail can be cheaper.
But I think the eShop sale is a good example of then digital is cheaper. I think DKC:TF still has an msrp of $60 even though you can find it for $50. But Nintendo is has it on sale for like $42 right now.

Eh... after playing more... well, I'm not sure this is an amazing deal or not.
I really like the concept of Hive Jump. The action should be fast and furious, and when it is the game scores pretty well by me. But there are some real technical issues in play here. The gameplay seems like it was designed for local multiplayer, but the game can barely keep up with just one player. It's also glitchy enough that you can't really count on being able to finish stages - sometimes freezing entirely, or having collision detection fail and your character suddenly being permanently stuck inside a wall or floor.
The ideas are still good, even if the implementation doesn't feel nearly polished enough. But it's hard to truly recommend given the technical shortcomings...

I got MK8D for $30. Canadian. That's an amazing deal. (And that's about what you should pay if you'd already bought the Wii U version and DLC. Maybe even a bit less.) Talk to me when Nintendo is doing a 50% off sale on 1st party titles. Then I'd be amazed.

A game I was waiting for to go on sale has done so at its best price yet. Grim Fandango for Switch is 75% off. Now that's my kind of deal.

I just bought a bunch of games in that sale just now.... My only question is, why can't I put them all in a cart an make one purchase? Enter my CC info just ONE time? Not 5 or 6 times.... or how ever many games it was I just bought right now.... it was enough individual purchases that my card had to decline one and text me to make sure fraud wasn't happening on my card... resulting in me entering my card info 2 more times to complete the purchase.
I'm really hoping I was just missing something and Nintendo still isn't this far behind on all the little details.

One at a time has been Nintendo's handling of purchases since the Wii Shop Channel. I'm not sure if there is a reason for that technically but if you don't want to make individual purchases on your card then you can add an amount of money on your account like $50, $100 or $200. Then when you purchase games, it just subtracts from that total until you need to put more money on your account again. At least that way, your card isn't being charged each time. Only for when you want to add a new amount to your account. I think the Switch eShop allows you to make payments through Paypal as well but not sure if having a bunch of Paypal purchases at once would also cause a fraud check or not.

I'm now curious, do the shops on the other systems have a cart system where you can pay for more than one game at a time? I honestly don't know, as the only modern non-tendo system I've used is the Xbox 360 (and I'm pretty sure it's also one at a time).
Anyways yeah, Khushrenada's suggestion to add funds is a good one for not entering in data each time. I thought there was a way to save card info though I've never tried it meself as I always add in eShop funny money, so maybe not.

I don't know if other systems use a cart system or not, but I'm an Amazon shopper.... I used to throwing **** in a cart and checking it all out at once.
I was just browsing the sale, and wasn't really sure how much I needed or even intended to spend, so I didn't really want to pre-pay a Nintendo Card where the money is trapped for all eternity until I decide to use it on another eShop game. I also didn't want to save my card info on the Nintendo eShop just incase my daughter ever decided to be crafty and go in there and start purchasing stuff.

In case anyone missed it, the following games have been added to the voucher system:
Pokemon Sword/Shield Dragon Quest XI LoZ: Link's Awakening (yeah, it's $60) Daemon X Machina (might've been there before?) Astral Chain
I am totally out of the loop. What is this voucher system for the Switch?
Also there is 2 games on my list which I want to get. Pokémon Shield and Astral Chain.
A system where Switch Online members can get digital versions of full-priced games in packs of 2 for $100 or equivalent. (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/50503/nintendo-introduces-switch-online-vouchers)
They're available to buy everywhere that isn't North America, which stopped selling them on July 31.

So frustrating they discontinued this! I'm on the verger of converting to fully digital and got a 512gb card over the holidays to do this and discovered they removed it. Hoping it comes back at some point.

There is a substantial DLC available as well, but they want like $50 for the DLC (it is two Civ expansion packs, so lots of content). It has already gone on sale so keep an eye out for that in the future. But without the DLC the base game has plenty of stuff to keep you entertained for ages. The UI is really smooth and intuitive on Switch as well if you are worried about losing the Mouse+Keyboard.

Okami HD is back down to $11.99. Tempted yet again to pick this up but I know I won't have the time between other games released. If Jedi Academy turns out to not be releasing for Switch this week or the reviews/online performance tanks then I may buy this instead.

If Nintendo were to ever have a digital sale.... NOW is the time.
people trying to stay entertained in their houses for the next 1-3 months are gonna be looking for lots of low investment options. games on sale is a great way to get people to maybe buy 1 if not 2-3 games they may have just passed on otherwise.

So I was perusing Deku Deals to add some of the newly announced/released games to my wishlist and discovered a game listed as 100% off called "Conduct Together!" Its only $0.01 right now and you earn a gold coin if you buy it, so it is essentially free. Watched a few reviews and looks like a fun/competent mobile port puzzle/management game. They also add local multiplayer for this one and one reviewer described the madness of multiplayer like a more simple Overcooked with the co-operative mayhem (you can crash your trains). NWR gave it an 8.0 so definitely worth checking out.
Also, seemingly to coincide with the release of Jedi Academy today, the predecessor Jedi Outcast is on sale for 7.99, so I'll probably pick both of them up.
