Hmm, neither really stands out too much to me. I don't buy many games these days, so i doubt I'd use the FS one and I already own SM3DL

Oh come on, NSMB2 isn't that badI think it's worth it.
I'm sure it's not bad, but I honestly don't think I'd play it haha. I don't spend a lot of time gaming lately so spending 20 bucks on something I don't want (or however much NSMB2 will cost) isn't exactly a selling point
I bought some of those wraps, pretty good. I think all 3 tastes are worth trying, but the bacon one is a little plain. I think Fiesta was the most interesting, as I'm already familiar with the sweet and spicy one's sauce.
I wouldn't pay $5 for these and I don't think most people would too, lol.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this already, but I just want to share this. I was in EB Games today, and someone asked if they could pre-order the Animal Crossing 3DS XL bundle. They couldn't, of course, because it's exclusive to Best Buy. Best Buy actually has pre-order cards for the bundle, so maybe it's not gonna be as rare as the Pikachu XL? Just wanting to post this so those interested can try and secure a bundle.
So Doritos aren't gaming but McDonald's is? I'm on to you guys.
I suppose this isn't a deal, but I saw a copy of Sakura Wars for Wii in the Gamespot outside the Eaton Centre. I thought it was $12.99, but it might have been $19.99 judging by their website.
They also have two copies of Super Robot Wars Original Generation for the GBA, box and all.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Here's hoping Futureshop's save $20 per game E3 promo returns. The Best Buy promo is similar but instant savings beat RWZ points which expire and pressure you into buying stuff you may not necessarily want.
Damn, SRWOG, there's one eb here that still sells random gba games but they are all crap.
Where are these pre-order cards? Would they be in the 3DS section of the Best Buy or at the front counter?I don't know if anyone has mentioned this already, but I just want to share this.

I got a big tax rebate and man does it make me want to finally pick up a Wii U. I have to wonder though if there's a price drop possibility coming at E3. Does anyone know of the price protection policies of various stores? I'm wondering if I should just buy now and hold onto my receipt in case the price changes after E3?
Also any good deals on Wii U + games or PS Vita anywhere?

Yea I would just wait, there was or still may be a promotion on Vitas at EB where you get 50 dollars off but it may just be hinting at the pricedrop.
Wii U basic is $279.99 with $50 gift card at Shoppers Drug Mart this week. Unfortunately, the 20x points event was yesterday only.
PS Vita Wi-Fi system is $199.99 at EBGames.ca when you use the promo code PSVSAVE50.
If you can find a Shoppers with a Basic still in stock, they're doing another 20x on Tuesday with coupon:

this show is not Breaking Bad why is it not Breaking Bad? it should be Breaking Bad dammit Breaking Bad
Just let me use tsilon E3 codes to pre-order MarioU, X, SMTxFE, TW101, Bayo2, and Yarn Yoshi, and I'll be set for Wii U deals!
edit: Xillia Collector's Edition is listed on Best Buy, I noticed. Sold out, however...
Sonic Colors $10 NEW, pre-order X, get sonic, and then cancel pre-order, GO!

I didn't see this posted but Futureshop is going to have the same "$50 off Sony wireless headphones" promo as BestBuy for ordering The Last of Us. I ended up canceling my $20 off E3 order and reordered with the tsilon code.

Of course... Thanks, though! Will check it once in a while, if someone cancel one I might get lucky! (yea right...) haha

Is this a coupon or do you need to order both at the same time.

You'll get a coupon after the game is shipped.

Saw the Madden Vita bundle for $199.99 at London Drugs this weekend. Not a bad deal.
I was actually pretty surprised, they had a decent sized shelf of video game stuff there. Prices weren't awful either.

You can't buy them individually for $25 each, but you can buy them together for $49.99

Hmm would have bought it if it were $40. I would pay $25 for Tomb Raider and $15 for Hitman.
edit: speaking of Tomb Raider, Chapters.ca has the Limited Edition (hardcover) guide for $20 ($18.15 for members) here: http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/home/...ited-edition-strategy/9780744014617-item.html

in other news, I finally blasted through MGR this weekend so I could trade it in today. Fun game, but I found it pretty tough in parts. I was playing on 'Hard' though. The second major boss and the final boss are just wat. The dialogue is pretty hilarious; 8-4 is da best.

These were not the points I was hoping for.
Do they even work in Canada?
Canadians have done so and redeemed in the thread.
I saw. My creditcard is denying the address
. I'll gladly trade a Steam game or interac email transfer if anyone can help me out with a couple codes.firehawk12
Subete no aware
Yeah, can you buy the points with a Canadian card? I saw that they only took US billing addresses, so I didn't bother going through with it...

I tried to order with Paypal, only to get the order cancelled and my Microsoft Store account locked. I REALLY hope this won't affect my Xbox Live account, since it uses the same e-mail adress... Argh. Some canadians in the thread ordered successfully, so try at your own risk.
I used Paypal and it worked for me. Bought only 2 and got the codes. I think if you really try to abuse it they might lock your account.

I just tried to order 1 and they locked mine. I wonder what happened...
Well, if you already have a Canadian Netflix account, you can use Mediahint on Firefox and Chrome to get American Netflix, or if you have it on a SMART device or a gaming console, you can change the DNS settings and you can get American Netflix.
Otherwise, I don't know how to open an American Netflix account.
Canadian and American accounts are the same thing, essentially, besides the difference in being able to have discs shipped to you if you live in the U.S.
Also, new thread incoming in what, five posts? Have we decided on a thread title yet? Pillows? Penniless? etc.?
