Are there any places still selling TE Fighsticks in Toronto? I saw some in EB Games stores but that was a long time ago.

The only place you can definitely find them is Madcatz.ca for sure or Craigslist/Kijiji/ebay.ca for incredibly inflated prices. I think EBGames or Gamestop.ca may have them too, but it's pretty rare. Amazon.ca carries em occasionally.
At retail? Your chances are slim to none.
Haven't seen a TE in store for awhile. If the HRAP VX SA is your thing though, last time I went to A&C games they had a few there along with some other sticks.

If you can wait, just wait for Canadianjoysticks.com to get a batch of Qanba Q4s in. They are cheaper and work with all platforms.
Solune also pointed me to http://eightarc.com/fusion-ebony - their sticks are more expensive and shipping is 45 bucks to Canada, but if you're desperate for one now, this would be the one to get.
Both feature all the right buttons and sticks and all that stuff.

Was at HMV in downtown Toronto (Queen West), and stumbled upon a possible clearance? They've moved all the games to a weird corner, and pretty much all games/hardware have a discount from 20-50%.
Not sure if it's store specific or all HMV.

I think some HMVs (if not all?) are phasing out their game sections here... In Hamilton/Stoney Creek, an HMV that used to have several racks of games have no relocated all of them into a single shelf space.
Does TRU have decent TIVs?

i'll head to the white rock hmv and rogers plus to ask whats going on. Also, one of my friends used to work at hmv so i can double check with him and his contacts
The Yonge/Dundas location has a similar setup.
Speaking of HMV, I managed to pick up this Sergio Leone anthology which includes the Dollars trilogy and Duck You Sucker remastered with bonus content, for $15.
Not sure if they've still got any, but it's a great deal.
Do Canadian TRU locations even accept trade-ins?
Either way, I'm probably heading there tomorrow for Mario Kart. Hopefully they have a copy of DQMJ2 as well.

Can you mix and match systems for this deal? Like, can I buy a Wii game and then get a 3DS game at 40% off? I'd like to get Fortune Street and Mario Kart 7.
Here is todays:
http://www.ebgames.ca/browse/ProductMerch.aspx?groupid=614
Change the end number to 615 for tomorrows, 616 for mondays etc.
future day stuff is still listed at regular price so you'll have to wait to see what they charge for it.
Alright, but I'm still confused as to how I get to the page by myself. I don't want to have to bookmark that one, then change the number every time.
I'm pretty sure you can match Wii/3DS/DS games.
On the front page of the site it says "Door crasher on sale now" click on that.

Cool, though I'm sure I can find something else if that's not the case.
Though I wonder if they'll still have copies of MK7 when Fortune Street comes out later next week.
If they don't you could always just buy it and return with old receipt. I'm going to try PMing as well when I pick up Mario Kart.
Er, I'm still not seeing it. Am I stupid? Is the banner on the graphic that changes every couple of seconds?
what do u mean, buy another copy of mario land 3ds? (and return it?)
Take advantage of the TRU deal by buying another copy of Mario plus another game, and then return the sealed game to BB with your original receipt.

This was the list that was posted on RFD:
ic, i was thinking it through, and didnt get it, lol
anyways, i'm planning on getting mario kart 7 or zelda...
which one should i get? also want to get DOA:dimensions, it's listed at 40$, eb website has it for 30$, so i guess i can pm it for 29$
(or should i get everything... i just got the 3ds, honestly i cant believe i'm playing like 300$ just for all this if i get everything)
on a side note, do you think TRU will price protect my 3ds which i got for 140$ there if i show them the best buy ad with 170 + $40 gc?
on another side note, i'm almost done mario land 3ds already, lol
You probably aren't seeing it because you have Adblock running. Hope you don't do the same on GAF.

Memory Express has some decent deals going on right now.
Kinda thinking on buying this, it would be a nice upgrade from my gtx 285.

OOS =(
Hm. May trade in UC3 and pick it up again at a cheaper price next year.
Ugh, need a list. I want to get rid of my Gears 3, Forza 4 and NHL 12 lol.
I've got the Gears Epic Edition and Forza 4 CE though, if anyone in Toronto is interested, let me know.
Was there yesterday, was a waste of time.
On another note, Amazon.ca has Pilotwings Resort 3DS for $17.74

Just got an excellent deal. Superstore had a no-tax day and they were selling Little Big Planet 2 for $29.99 ($10 off). I convinced the clerk the special edition with Move support and other DLC totaling $35 in extra content was the one on sale. It normally sells for $59.99. Lucky for me I didn't see any regular Little Big Planet 2 games on the shelf.
You're doing it wrong.

Well I discussed my Canadian deal. The topic doesn't state official deals and I'm sure you're going to the store right now to do the same thing. lol

Yay for you. We are all very happy.

Nice. I picked up Skyrim as part of the E3 promotion. Haven't opened it, and probably never will considering its problems. This is a nice out card.
