I'm not sure about transferring data between memory cards since I bought a 32GB first thing. You can download a content manager which makes it very easy to copy games from the Vita to your PC in case you need to make space for other games. You can also transfer all your PS1 games from the PS3 to play on the go.

Do they still offer 3 extra months of PS+ when you pay for a year?

Randomly checked out Walmart's website tonight and found that they'd restocked the PS All Stars game.
...Figured might as well. I mean, 10$, right?
Just a heads up too, I saw Bioshock Infinite for the PS3 in stock again too, if anyone wanted it

Dropped by Wally World and saw some stuffs:
Crush 3D 3DS $10
Splinter Cell 3D 3DS $10
Asphalt 3D 3DS $10
The website shows all versions of Skylanders Giants Starter Pack are $30, including Wii U.
AND, Futureshop has Darksiders 2 Wii U for $29.97!
Got Crush and Darksiders 2.
Also, I made it to Old Navy and used the code to get a nice blue hoodie for $15, and found a nice big shirt for $5 on clearance.

I think that was Europe only.
Anyone know where I can still find this bundle?

It periodically appears In Stock on the walmart.ca website. Best to track this topic or the one on RFD to know when.
50% off any one item at Old Navy today only BTW for those who may have not gotten the e-mail. You're supposed to bring the e-mail in, but they have a copy of it at the cashes and they don't bother asking for it.
Got a $30 sweater, which was already on sale for $15, half off, so $8 taxes in.
Thanks for the heads up. Picked up a cheap hoodie for $10 after discounts.
Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the great deal and release-date information over the years - I've been stalking this thread for a while and it's been a great resource to help me save on gaming expenses.
On a side note, I do have a few questions:
1) I'm aware of what tsilon is, but are invites absolutely necessary to get in? Is it possible to sign up to tsilon without an invite?
2) Does anyone know where there are cheap M2 memory cards to pick up? I'm getting a little pinched with the 16gb on the PSPGO and would like to double up using another 16 gb card. Amazon.ca has shown some ludicrous prices, so if anybody has seen them relatively cheap - around $40 or less - it'd be amazing to hear some other options.

Can you link me to the RFD topic?

I'm not Bronetta but I just happened to be looking at the RFD thread so here it is:

Fellow PSPGO owner too and I'd like to know this as well. I check Amazon.com from time to time as the prices are usually much cheaper there than Amazon.ca. Some sellers will ship to Canada. Currently, I'm not seeing any 16GB M2 cards with Canada shipping but here's an 8GB that's pretty cheap:

Thank you good sir or madam.
You're a little late for tsilon, the site hasn't given perks in months (April is the last one I remember) and is pretty much dead.

Oh nice. Maybe I could get Splinter Cell. I don't care how crappy it is. I assume it's playable thought, right? >__>
I missed out on the Old Navy deal too

I grabbed it yesterday and have been enjoying it. Just finished Panama (3rd map) and have finally come to grips with the controls. Play the MGS3D demo to see if controlling the camera with the face buttons (ABXY) is something you can stomach. That's the biggest flaw, I'd say. The "platforming" and 3D navigation can be a little annoying since Jump is on DPAD UP, as well.
Some changes (some good, some bad) since the original CT but I personally think it's a steal at $10. If you've already played CT I'd recommend it easily, but if you've not already, I'd say get that on PC or something for the same price since it will look prettier and control better.

Hey, mine shipped too! I wonder if it will actually show up on Tuesday.
So far I've always had everything the day after they shipped. Doubt I will this time since they sent it out today. But one can hope!
ive used amazon a few times. usually 5-10 business days to arrive after shipping. imo amazon.ca sucks.

FS says GTA5 has shipped!
I check the Canada Post tracking page...
... and estimated delivery is Sep 18!?!?!

FS site says my Gta V shipped, but the tracking doesn't work. But I have decided to buy it tomorrow at midnight at full price then take the one I get in the mail back which I got during an e3 sale.
Mine says the 18th. Will be doing what I did with NHL. Picked up in store the day of release, get the E3 deal the next day and return it as the regular priced one.
Ouch, that's terrible. FS hasn't even shipped my item yet D: I don't know if after 5 years, I can wait one more day! This is killing me!

I had originally pre-ordered with amazon.ca. I got antsy with that estimated delivery date, though, and switched to EB games.
Sorry that I don't have much to add. I tried to do some research on this but didn't find much. I think you might have to somehow contact them directly. Hopefully someone else, here, will be more helpful.

Anyone in Toronto seen a Dollarama with notable gaming stuff. Like there's cheap Wii accessories and even that Ubisoft Wii fitness game with the camera for $3. But I barely see any gaming stuff in the slightest in the ones I've been to.
Also anyone know where I can find a cheap new sealed copy of Lego City Undercover for Wii U?

Used my Tsilon code (from February 2012 lol) on mine.

ETA on GTA in the GTA.
I haven't used Amazon.ca to order a game at release since they got rid of the $10 off Visa perks deal years ago. There's no reason to buy most games at release from them because there's usually a better deal elsewhere (E3 deals for example).
Same here, no way that's true though. Doubtfull it'll be here tomorrow, but definitely Tuesday. Richmond > Edmonton had always been next day delivery for me.

Whats the cheapest way to get a WiiU right now. I kind need to play Wonderful 101 since its by Platinum and then have a nice dust magnet until Bayonetta 2 comes out.
mine does too but it also made it to the in transit stage on friday so I expect it to go out for delivery on Monday. if yours hasn't hit the transit portion then Wednesday is likely.
Hmmm. Wait for ZombiU bundle to drop to $300? That's much a better deal than the WW WiiU bundle. Or if ZombiU don't happen, wait for any 20x event from shoppers and buy a $300 WiiU?
That bundle price drop better happen by the 20th. It's only fair. It'll definitely be a better value for my dollar.

Mine hit transit on the 14th at 00:08.
I hope it makes it here (Saskatoon, SK) by Tuesday.
