Thanks!

Now my only concern is to know if there's gonna be a "GOTY-edition" of GTA5, but i think it's more or less standard now for Rockstar games to get one a year or two after the initial release.

There's a "trade 1 game and get Kirby/Mario Golf free" promo at EBgames. I think the game must be worth $15 or more in their system however.

I think I'll trade my PS3 version of GTA5 (should be worth more than $15... I hope!), and re-buy the game when the super-deluxe-all-DLCs-and-60fps version will be out on PS4. It's more or less confirmed at this point, right?

Might end up trading Bravely Default for Kirby. Can't get through it anymore, haven't enjoyed it. Might as well get rid of it.

Bah, I was hoping to trade Animal Crossing. I don't really have anything else worthwhile. I assume Rayman Legends is worthless.

Unfortunately, it only has $13 value. I don't think there's a handheld game worth $15+. It's all gonna be console game.

That's lame, don't really have any console games I'm willing to part with.

The Last of Us Remastered, Borderlands 2 Vita and a few others. The ones I want at least.

As far as I can tell The Last of Us Remastered isn't apart of the BB promotion. You can always preorder it off Amazon if anything. Also, if it's anything like Bravely Default CE, preorders might be available again before release.

Oh you guys. You're not seriously considering picking up SIMCITY, are you? Or should I say, SimTown? The single biggest disappointment of 2013 for me.

That said, maybe for $20 it won't seem as awful. But seriously, I can't in good conscience allow all this talk of people considering SimCity without at least trying to warn you all!

Do the Cities of tomorrow include the Digital Deluxe pack?

Glad I picked up Sly Cooper fast on Vita from Best Buy. Never knew they sold out or stopped pre-orders. Same with Borderlands 2.

Also why is the Ouya always in the best seller list on Amazon?
 
I remember someone here ordered a PSV 64GB memory card from yesasia. How long did it take to deliver? Also, did you get hit with custom fees?

Took less than a week using the express shipping option. I ordered right before the weekend and received it the following Tuesday. No custom fees.
 
I wonder if Bestbuy will ever fix the no-Wii U 15% off preorders option. Or if they'd intended no Wii U at all.

Some people have brought it up on their forums, at least.

Excellent! I pre-ordered with a closed credit card and will just price match at Future Shop on release day with the invoice from Amazon. Wooohoo!
Click to expand...

That's I good idea. Have you done it before? and are you sure they'll honor it? If so i'll just cancel my order and do the same so I can get it the day it releases instead of waiting for amazon to ship.
 
fuck it, I'll spend the $3 for Crash 2, 3 and Team Racing so I can have them in my download list whenver Sony gets around to adding Vita functionality.

I know O_o I was able to score the Kirby Tripe Deluxe pre-order with Bravely Default nonetheless due to my Edge Card but I was shocked... I mean 13$ wutttt

I also traded-in Killzone: Shadow Fall. The game was terrible and the the forest level was just a pain to deal with - got Mario Golf on pre-order with it :)

Also traded-in some of my other games that I didn't enjoy. They were just on shelftop decorating.

I've done it with every game I've bought since the price hike. Thief, Donkey Kong, etc. I have over 30 games pre ordered on Amazon at the $60 point to do this all year and beyond.

Among the games on the list I could possibly want, I own most of them already, unfortunately...

Most? Lucky you, there are none I want that I don't already have.

I don't believe they'll ever be playable here. There's no reason they shouldn't already be considering they are elsewhere.
 
I went on the Wii U eShop today and saw Nintendo hiked the prices of a bunch of downloadable games like Dr. Luigi and NES Remix. Pretty thrilled to see that. They're leaving Virtual Console alone, at least so far, so that's good.

On an unrelated note, thanks for the heads-up on the Best Buy preorder deal. I got Mario Kart 8 down but my credit card expires before the far-off games like X and Smash Bros. come out, so I can't preorder them. Mrgrgr

You can always edit your CC info right before the game (X, Smash Bros) processes prior to shipment.

So just bring in a print out of your email invoice on release date and that's it? It doesn't have to be while the sale at Amazon is still active so they can check?

I think it depends if the store gives a shit or not. My store has implemented a policy where the cashier has to take out their smartphone and manually check the price themselves at the store that you are using to pricematch.
