I have the OG Headset for like 3 years and I have no problems with the battery, I hope this won't be any worse!

You can't add two of the same game if I recall.
You can, but you need to create sub- (child) account
If someone could PM me a $50 off console code they wont be using that would be greatly appreciated. I've been waiting for a good price to get a 3DSXL for a while.
Costco had the Mario kart xl bundle for $149 on boxing day. I doubt we'll see anything that good for a long time.

Sorry for double post: would Walmart adjust a price after a month? they have the item on rollback and its return window is 90 days!
They should.
If they do not, then buy it again at the lower price. And then return it with the older receipt that has the higher price.
I think it's Gameaccess.ca
They have current gen games, Wii U, and handheld.
If there's something better, I'd love to know about it.

Oh ok, that's a good idea : ) Thanks
Honestly, I'd rather just buy a game used and sell it used for the same price than rent, especially if you have to do it by mail. Canada Post kept cracking DVD discs when I was with Zip: it was frustrating to discover just as I was about to sit down to watch a movie, and after the third time I just cancelled my account because I was afraid they would accuse me of breaking them and charge me for it, since it was happening too often.
That would be incredible man! Thank you! I PM'd you.
That would be incredible. How do you obtain one? Did I have to be on a newsletter or something?

Future Shop: Free game rentals since E3 2011.
got a wii u from futureshop. did price match with the source. $240 after taxes. deluxe edition. someone fucked up.
EDIT also i'm having this problem where the tv screen keeps flickering to black for a few seconds then i goes back. happens when i switch the menu things in the home screen. this happens when it's set to 1080p. it stopped happening when i switched to 1080i.
anyone else have this problem with the wiiu?

Bestbuy had the same promotion. Good thing I was able to get the last stock. I saved a lot of money on that.
I'd suggest you exchange it. I have a launch unit and never experienced that. I had plenty of lock ups, but those are pretty common. You should be good to exchange it. Dont make a Network ID either, they are system locked.
too late. it's a good thing i didn't move the wii data onto the system...
i'm reading the problem might have to do with my television?
it's currently being used on a LG. i guess i'll just try it on a different tv.
EDIT
this is what happens

Could I get the harddive one?
Edit: Nevermind, their selection is kinda crap. Wanted to get a good HDD for the PS4, but they don't carry the seagate SSHD's.
ordered it online. did a price match with the source. customer service person checked it out and said it was $200 there, and the total price will come up to $240. so i ordered it.How did you get it for $240 after tax?!
it arrived today and the receipt shows that they charged $240

The one you talked must be blind. The source has the deluxe for $300.

Maybe what he saw was that their website advertises as having it 109.99 off. For whatever reason.
... not that $350-$110=$200...
Yeah, that's some weird math.
He got lucky. He shouldn't get it for $200. They will price match it to $299 and then get the 10% difference of the price. He should only get it for $294.99.

Huh, looks like you can use that $50 console coupon from Staples for the Xbone? Or am I mistaken?
Too bad I can't use it for a PS4 preorder.
edit: wait, sorry I think it says you can't use it for preorders. nm

I was walking out of the cinema and 3 guys were just getting off a car and walking towards a nearby one. As I passed them, one was bringing a huge knife with him and a second was hiding (or taking out) a gun in/from his pants. The other car sped away and a minute later the guys from the first car (I think) started to practice their drifting in the empty parking lot. This all happened only on my way to the bus stop. Friendly Manitoba my ass.
Yeah pretty much, but that shit can happen anywhere.
Getting DNS errors on my ps3 again...
Shaw, Vancouver area...can anyone help me? I've tried an open DNS that I found through googling and it's not working, my ps3 can't even find my IP address anymore.
At the moment, I have Automatic on IP, subnet, default router and address settings.
I used the DNS1: 208.67.222.222
DNS2: 208.67.220.220
So...I don't know. Those DNS numbers are the ~guaranteed to work on any ISP~ numbers so...
Someone here helped me get it working before but it started crapping out again a couple weeks ago.
Halp, please? I don't know why this is always happening to me

I had to do what you said, bought a new one and returned it at the same time with the old receipt, I even told the girl at CS about what I did and she said this is smart lol

How about trying putting your PS3 IP in DMZ in your router? Did you try leaving everything automatic? Wired networking maybe?
I've tried a bunch of things for wireless.
I don't know what you mean by DMZ into my router though. I've tried automatic, and some custom ones people on here have given me before. I'm using wired right now and it works (though it said my router may not support "fragmented IP" and that my use my be restricted because of it. What does that even mean???). But I don't have a wire normally, I have to drag this one across a few rooms to use it.
I'm from Winnipeg and i wouldn't walk alone at night. Also looking for 3DS XL deals. I want one badly.

The problem can only be in your router anyway, but if it works even with some error messages then leave it as it is. When I'm playing outdoors I use my Iphone hotspot and it always give me those messages that my connection won't be that good but it works perfectly for online gameplay.
I'd say buy a new router, give it a try and if it doesn't make a difference return it.
It's an ~official Shaw~ modem/router, so...eh. I may just see if I can run another cord through my house because the wireless has never worked properly for my systems

That's crazy. I've been living in Montreal since last year and I have no complaints so far.

Cineplex at Polo Park. My wording was kind of bad. The city is full of nice people but the sketchy ones are damn sketchy.
Also for the guy looking for 3DS XL deals: I don't think there's anything at the moment but just be a little patient. It's fairly easy to come across $30-$40 off at this point, so give it a couple weeks.
Or you can do like me: buy a used 3DS (preferably an Ambassdor unit) and play with it to see if you like it. If you do, get a XL, transfer all the games, and then sell the old unit.
