NooOOoOo! "This item is not currently available" for Super Monkey Ball 2. When there is finally a deal going on for that game, I can't get it. Gah! :p

Beach Spikers is still $9.99 at Best Buy. Just picked up a copy. Marked $29.99 on the rack, but rang up at $9.99. Also grabbed Mickey's Magical Mirror for $14.99 ($19.99 - $5 Gamer's Gift Card coupon) for my son.

I don't have a Sam's Club Membership, so I'm sticking to Costco Deals. I recently posted some titles on sale at some Costco locations in the Bay Area and in Southern CA (yes, I am nomadic). Here are a few more titles I saw over the weekend:

MLB SlugFest 20-03 - $19.99
Wave Race: Blue Storm - $19.99
NHL Hitz 20-03 - $19.99 - I picked this one up.

The other titles I mentioned before are still available. You just have to be patient and dig through the mounds of games to find the ones you want. Good Luck!

There are also $5 of $19.99 coupons at Best Buy inside these free Netflix trial DVD cases. They are usually on a rack near the DVD section, or at the counter.

If anyone sees an extra Beach Spikers at their BB, I'd definitely appreciate it if they'd pick it up for me. Will make it worth your while obviously :)

Just picked up the last Metroid Prime at the Gardena (Los Angeles) Sam's club for $29. Also picked up SW Bounty Hunter for the same price. The selection wasn't very good, but I believe the other titles are all discounted as well. The sticker prices were $40+.

I saw a James Bond game (one left), LOTR TTT, bunch of EA sports games etc.

The Torrance Sams club didn't have Metroid Prime.

ebgames.com has 10% off GC pre-orders. So if you really want to order Zelda online or something, you can make up that $5 they charge extra for shipping the bonus disc I guess. :confused:

Swingerz Golf is also $19.99 at ebgames.com

With the exception of weekends, EBgames.com changes their promotions every day at 2pm EST. Once in a while, they have different promos, but the deals are usually for preowned games. You are probably better off buying used games through eBay or half.com, since preowned games from EBgames may or may not come with their original cases and manuals.

Nintendo is apparently sticking three new games in the so-called Player's Choice collection of games: Luigi's Mansion, Pikmin, and Super Smash Bros. Melee will all retail for $29.95 now.

Yes, but they usually will if it's a newer title (PS2, GC, XBOX)

Sweet! Nintendo has really changed from their old days when you couldn't get one their flagship titles anywhere for less than MSRP, which in some cases was as high as $69.99! The old Nintendo would have had us pay that amount for Metroid Prime or Zelda, but sometimes competition can work wonders.

Nintendo had this same program for N64, titles that sold 1 million+ copies got put on the "Player's Choice" line for $34.95. Maybe you're thinking SNES?

They were $39.95 MSRP. The games were $50 at one point, but not after they were rereleased as Player's Choice titles. Anyway, this is off topic.

I'm glad to see that they will be doing this with certain games, but Nintendo should have gone lower on price. $19.99 or even $24.99 would be more appealing since us bargain hunters can usually get new games in the $30 - $40 range.

Yeah, but with the BB $5 deal that isn't a bad price for something like SSBM which I have never seen for less than $50, and I was about to just throw in the towel and pay that much, but now I can save myself some cash!


Does anyone know when I can walk into BB and actually get these prices, I couldn't find even a press release on Nintendo's site detailing when this will actually take effect. I guess I am safe to buy it now and do a price adjustment though.



BTW, Phantasy Star Collection for GBA is $22.99 at CC this week.
