Haha. If it makes you feel any better Nintendo uses Lexar class 4's. This is probably what Roto grabbed, I picked one up for myself too.

Is the Amazon PSN+ deal good until Sunday or today only ?
I'll only be able to order tomorrow.

Alright I just picked up Shin Megami Tensei IV for $29 at BB. Didn't know it would be the limited edition and now I'm kind of scared to open it lol. I know people here give the game praise but this is my first time trying it out the series..
I watched the first hour or so on youtube and it didn't really look too appealing imo (specifically the presentation and pacing). Should I dive in and give it a shot or return/trade/sell it?

No, it's only good for today!
Sooo, I was dumb enough the other day to straight up buy a PS Vita for $199 without really looking around. As soon as I saw this deal I regretted it, but unfortunately it doesn't ship to Canada anyway, so whatever.
That inspired me to look around though, and I ended up noticing that EB was selling the Walking Dead bundle for $179, plus a free copy of Uncharted: Golden Abyss. Ended up returning my $199 unit and picking that up instead.
Still missed out on Retro City Rampage and Sly, but I was glad to find roughly the same deal as the Amazon one right here in Canadia.

The code isn't listed under your game and software library?
It wasn't but I got the email a few minutes ago. It all worked out and I'm topped of until late 2015.

Are the vouchers to be redeemed on amazon or psn?
I screamed when I went to check my email and saw "BEST BUY WEB SUPPORT".
Clicked it and it's for the other thing I ordered, not my Ys Ultra Turbo Edition ;_;

OK, I was just at the Richmond Target, and I was able to get the God of War Collection + red DS3 for $35. So I think all of these game+controller bundles are on sale.
I'm the same. I really want to get a Vita before the 2000 models are introduced [that OLED screen!], but I'm not in a hurry and I'm hoping Boxing Day might have a better deal/bundle.
It seems like either way I'll miss out on the Uncharted/Vita deal, since it was only good for today, so my only other bet is the current $179.99 one.
Same boat as you. Really want that OLED screen and hopefully for all of us looking to buy a vita, there will be a decent VITA deal for around $150 hopefully around boxing day

Nope. It was never available during E3 or the various 10% preorder sales. I thought I had bought it too. lolWas Ys ever listed in time for the E3 sale? Don't see it in my orders anywhere
At this point, I might just grab it digitally when it's on sale at some point.
I've been using a Lexar class 4 in my 3DS for years and it has done a fine job. I don't even mind if the class 10 is no faster as long as it's as reliable as I've found this one to be.

that's what I'm doing for the wii U. Similar situation. No decent deals, almost pulled the trigger on 249 with zelda from best buy but meh still too much.
Will wait till boxing day.

Save yourself even more cash, order it from amazon uk.
http://www.amazon.ca/Battlestar-Galactica-Edward-James-Olmos/dp/B0036EH3U2/ref=sr_1_68?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1385763075&sr=1-68
Should end up around 60-70$ with the exchange rate.
It's region free
.
Would they charge import tax though? There are a few movies/shows I wanted available only on Amazon.co.uk but I don't want to be hit with additional fees.
Edit: I think this was the link you were looking for =P

Here's the link for
http://www.ebgames.ca/ps3/games/final-fantasy-xiv-realm-reborn/305344
cheaper than the amazon.com one.

I bought stuff from the UK Amazon store and haven't been hit with customs. Maybe it was luck?
Thanks just picked this up!

The only game I wanted but couldn't buy was Rayman Legends WiiU, didn't find it online on BB when I checked
Thought about getting it on PSN for $30 then again if it's gonna be on a PS it'd be PS4 just for the love of second screen

I think I'm going to get a Vita from Shoppers tomorrow since I have a 30% off coupon that expires soon. $200 for the CoD bundle.
Plus it's bonus redemption days tomorrow, though I don't think I can combine the two.

oh shit FS has it I GOTTA TRY TO CANCEL MY EB GAMES ORDER THEN
I got like 80$ in FS credits!
Thanks for the heads up. All the shops (including FS and Amazon.ca) seem to be this price now.
Went with Amazon for cheapest shipping option for me.
Pretty much going to hold onto this game, and not start it until the PS4 version comes out, lol

amazon.ca seems to have been sold out.
by the way anyone knows how to cancel an ebgames order placed online?
and if I can't can I just return the game to any ebgames store? for a CC refund?
1. Go to view your order. You should be able to cancel it there (a big red button).
2. Yes you can.
You guys ever have amazon.ca deliver Bly rays in really crappy condition? I've ordered two from them, one was all dented and the second one looked like it was re-shrink wrapped and the inside cover was all wrinkly. I ordered another copy of the second movie from Walmart and it had none of those problems.

I didn't order it with my account, it doesn't show >_> When I log in.
But it does if I look it up with my email that's used for my account the order number
I might have to send em an email to get it.
Only BRs I've gotten from them were box sets (LotR, Game of Thrones S1 and S2) and they came well packaged and perfect.
Wait.... Doesn't the game have monthly fees? And how would the upgrade from PS3 to PS4 work?
I did. Complained and got a credit. The disc wasn't even sealed and had tons of finger prints.
Other time I refunded and got them to mail me a new one.
UPS though, the delivery guy sometimes throws these packages to the front door. :S especially if they are small.

Have people been seeing Xbones in Shoppers?
Is this for Shoppers? How do you even get one?If anyone in Vancouver isn't using their 30% off coupon I'd love it
MrBambinoDent

They send them in the mail for select Optimum card members!
It does have a monthly fee.
Upgrade will be based on your account (which is linked to your PSN account). If you have the PS3 version registered to your account, you will be able to download the PS4 client for free.
Oh, yes if you purchased as a guest you may need to send them a support ticket with your order number.

Can they be used along super redemption days like today?
Does anyone know if it comes with some initial playtime? I'd like to dive in on this but I don't have the time to focus on it for a few weeks.
