Also, the new Gamecube controller is definitely compatible with Gamecube and Wii.

I had an old Elite 120gb model, but without the hard drive. Microsoft Store was giving $100 trade in credit and I put it towards the Sunset bundle. So I basically got it for $299+tax. I'm pretty sure you can find some old working Phat xbox or if you have one, take it to the Microsoft store and try the same. Sell the sunset code if you want. I'm probably going to try and sell my Sunset digital code for like $40-$50 to anyone local in the lower mainland or something.
We'll find out come feb~ if they honour all those $16 order 1886's
I doubt they will since ive been hearing canada isn't even getting them.
This have to do with the Premium Edition? Hope we're still getting it.

Meh, don't want a white Xbox One. I'm a stickler for having matching electronics.
Lol that was an amazing day. I managed to get a copy of each game. Sold ghosts back though and upgraded ac4 and bf4 to Xbox one versions.
Yeah, that's never going to happen again.
Sorry, I've been out of the country for five months and had little to no internet, so my pillow deal scouting powers haven't been used in awhile. I'm sure you'll find something closer to boxing day or black friday, just hold out a wee bit longer.

Your not the only one, In the past few months we haven't gotten any confirmation that were getting it and whenever we ask Ready at Dawn were told to ask Sony.
From what I've looked at online. Canada is getting the collectors only.
Amazon has the collectors edition up still and updated with the pictures. Premium is no where to be found.
Ebgames.ca only has collectors up as well.
Has the white Wii U been discontinued? I can't see it on BB or FS. My current game pad is kind of broken. I was going to wait to see if there were a new basic Wii U holiday bundle, but I have a feeling there might not be one this year.
Should I just try and find on in stores, or should I wait it out and see if there is a new bundle.

No they already announced the 3D World bundle and MK8 bundle so I think the chances of the white one making an appearance are slim. Keep in mind you can buy a refurbished black one (it impeccable condition) from Nintendo online for $200 CAD so that might be an option too.
I was specifically looking for a white one to match all my accessories. Guess I'll try and find one in stores then before they all disappear during the holidays.

The only white bundles still around at packaged with Skylanders for ~$240 or so. They've been on sale for around $200 though.
You might be able to find a non-bundled white one at Toys R Us or Shoppers.

I thought those started Oct 2X?
Yeah it can't be redeemed yet I don't think. I guess they started handing them out early since they ran out of the other ones.

Look at our dollar.
They're supposed to start Oct 27, but the cards are in stores already. Employees frequently disregard embargoes on freebies and giveaways.

So I went to EB to get the Gengar and Diancie and they said they're out of them? What the fuck? How are you out of Pokemon?
Is there any other way to get either of them? I hate this store bullshit

not the same
the retail copy is cheaper than digital. it's other way around usually.
Go to other stores and call them if they still have those codes?

They're all out in Vancouver. I'd check Burnaby or Richmond but I'm not going all the way there.
This is so stupid.
Bite the bullet and go out to Langley. It'll be your evening.

I don't have long distance calling but I did try calling about 10 other stores and they all refused to give me the code over phone
I got to say, I respect that they'll only give out codes to people who come to the store.
Don't tempt me
He says they miss the old wireless events, guuuuurl don't tempt me

A few weeks ago, you could've done the same for a Madden or Forza by die, plus get a free game, and $50 store card.
You can still do the above for the Forza bundle, or the 1TB hdd advanced Warfare bundle. It worked out for me because I wanted white, and because I had an elite that EBGames would only give me $32 total for. Instead I got $100 for it off the Sunset bundle, and I'll probably sell the Sunset digital code for $45-$50 if I can.
$59.99 Canadian.

I traded in MAG (servers shut down), Eye of Judgement and one other throwaway. That day was GLORIOUS.

This may be the wrong thread for this, and google hadn't helped, but how do I get US Netflix on my Canadian account via PS3? Most of google results say I'll need to pay additional fees via a 3rd party proxy server of something. Any advice?
Get American DNS codes for your internet settings.

Google Americian DNS Netflix. There are tons updated daily. Really easy stuff and you can easily go back and forth by setting the DNS to automatic when you want to go Canadian then back to Manual after and it will save the Amercian DNS
I wouldn't mind it.
Sent you a PM.
I'm thinking about doing the same.
If anyone's going to the Toy's R Us deal at Dufferin Mall, let us know how it went. Thinking about finally picking up 3D Land.
