Oh hey I got my FS copy of Wind Waker after all... but it still isn't even denoted as having shipped on the order status page. In fact, I can't print the receipt either. How the heck am I gonna return this!? :S

Cancel your order and enjoy the free copy.

Spoiler

I'm kidding. I guess you'll have to wait a few days before you can return it.

They charged my card on Wednesday! :lol

yeah if it doesn't get updated in a few days I suppose I'll go to the store with my order number and hope they can figure it out.

I bought PS3 Arkham Asylum GotY from them and it's English/French all over the cover. I don't know if there was an English-only version in Canada.

Ah, I'm fine with that. As long as it's not French version only. Thanks for answering.

Wow, that's a good price, depending on how you feel about red.

So apparently GameStop is having a midnight release for Pokemon in the states.

COME ON EBGAMES.

 

[Tagg9]

Best Buy finally shipped Rune Factory 4. Hurray! Too bad I won't get it until next week now...

I honestly doubt they would do that here but who knows...

Reserved it just for the Vita cross-buy, can't wait to check it- 3.3 GIGS!?!?!?!??
Someone needs to have a Vita memory card sale. That sale that Best Buy was having in the states makes me jelly.

I asked about that at my local EB, said no.

Maybe my EB is just lazy and other EBs are doing it.

I have 2 4GB ones, I feel that pain. I'm not gonna pay that much for memory cards yet though. SD cards are cheap so it's not fair.

Do we know which retailers will sell the Wii Fit Meter to unlock the full game when Wii Fit is available next month? I looked on Amazon, EB Games, and Best Buy's websites. None of them carry the Wii Fit Meter.

Amazon might not cause of their Nintendo hardware policy. EB is pretty much guaranteed, and most of the other big retailers I would say it's pretty likely they will carry it. It's probably not the sort of thing that retailers are planning to offer pre-orders for, which might be why they aren't listed anywhere at the moment.

 

[Sajjaja]

Nice deal on Sly 4. Reserved a copy at FS. Have yet to finish 2 and 3.

That makes sense. As long as I'm able to able to buy the meter during the free period I'll be fine lol I guess I'll check again once the Wii Fit download is up.

Thanks!

Didn't get mine from FS. :/
Strangely, Disgaea shipped.

 

[Bronetta]

Amazon.ca has the Pokemon X/Y strategy guide for $16.20 while its $23 everywhere else. Not the hottest deal around but decent if you were planning on picking it up.

[bloodyroarxx]

Anyone aware of anyone who has PS4`s still available?

 

[Lexxism]

Hmmm. SMTIV has a tiv of $19 at ebgames. So this game is eligible for trade-in but is it worth it?

 

[DaBoss]

Well you would essentially get $70 out of SMTIV ($30 credit plus $40 for Pokemon X/Y) versus the $50 you paid for it.

That's only the US though, not Amazon Canada.

Yes. It's the same price at FS/BB also.

 

[krae_man]

The games are good yes. Not as good as the console versions but definitely worth buying if you liked the console versions.

Both are shorter then the console games as well but $10 for 2 games is worth it.

 

[ohlawd]

Hmmm. SMTIV has a tiv of $19 at ebgames. So this game is eligible for trade-in but is it worth it?

Nope. No doubt in my mind SMTIV is a better game than Pokemon X/Y. But if you got an extra copy sitting around, go ahead and do it.

God of War Origins Collections for $9.95

Hell yes. Worth it just for Ghost of Sparta alone. The only GoW games better than that are 2 and 3. Chains of Olympus is pretty crap like 1 but play it anyway.

 

[krae_man]

In what alternate universe is God of War 1 not the best of the series?

 

[ohlawd]

In what alternate universe is God of War 1 not the best of the series?

In my universe where I'm the holy personification of good taste.

Stop dreaming

Here are my rankings for GoW:
2 > 3 > GoS > Ascension > 1 > CoO

 

[krae_man]

In my correct universe every game after the first one has tried to copy it but has failed to surpass it.

For example the Hydra is the best first boss of the series.

 

[DiddyBop]

In what alternate universe is God of War 1 not the best of the series?

I feel you, I've always thought the first game was far and above the rest. I know ten second game gets most of the praise but I personally enjoyed the first one more.

 

[zroid]

First one just struggles with pacing in the middle, imo. The highs are very high though. That was also before the character got extremely played out.

 

[krae_man]

The Pandora temple is like 80% of the game and it's a shame the boss guarding Pandora's Box was scrapped for time but it's still hands down the best game despite that.

 

[March of the Crabs]

Anyone aware of anyone who has PS4`s still available?

Don't know of any online, but Walmart in Canada didn't do in-store preorders so that might be your best bet to snag one on launch day.

 

[MrBambinoDent]

Any recommendations for HDMI Switches? I ran outta HDMI ports and now switching between devices, 3 ports is just too few!

BB/FS online reservations only last 24 hours now. That's annoying. :<

Seriously? It's a $50 game.

Beg in the BST thread; copies there go for at least $40.

I got one from Amazon a few months ago for literally like $4, works like a dream. It even automatically detects where a live signal is coming from, so you never actually need to to the switching!

Tech like that is digital, so it's all pretty comparable.

Monoprice sells them as well. I use a little hardware switch for my PC and Mac Mini, no problems at all.

One like this?

I'm currently using a 2x2 matrix switch to shuffle inputs between two different TVs, but I need more inputs now that I have a WiiU. A nice simple switch like that would be great.

I also have a bigger Monoprice switch but it would be overkill for that application.

What's the dealio on amazon.com vs amazon.ca orders here in Canada? (specifically Toronto)

Something I want is $89 US on amazon.com and $115 CDN on amazon.ca. Meanwhile, on XE.com...

"89.00 USD = 91.6590 CAD"

How's shipping to Ontario via Amazon.com? It's more viable to do that than order from amazon.ca, right?
