Wal mart matches Black Friday deals.
Yeah, I have a DK amiibo and he should be used as Exhibit A when people complain that the figures aren't very good. He's even better than Mario.

Seriously thanks I had an 8 player smash party last night cuz of you. I didn't even know Microplay was still in business. Was tucked away inside a videotron store.
Just went to Costco in Oshawa ont. Picked up Smash bros. for wii-u for 54.99. Looks like Costco doesn't have Canada tax on new releases in store only. Their website does though kind of odd.
They also had a bunch of cheap ps4 games at 19. Infamous second son, mlb14, kill zone and knack.
Enjoy

Yep! That's where mine is. They have 2 boxes full I think... Crazy when you consider the entire US seems to be out of stock and people order on Amazon UK.
Got more info?Someone posted this in the dragon age performance thread:
using chrome and the hola plugin, you can get dragon age inquisition PC origin key for $27 Canadian. I don't even have a gaming pc at home atm and i still got it
What country and website did you use?

Mine had Destiny for $34.99 but none of the other cheap games. I did notice that they are all free of the canada tax in store. Smash was 54.99, new PS4/XB1 games were 59.99 but their selection wasn't the greatest.
Sorry there's no real thread, but I tried to set up my WiiU last night and thought using the Wii LAN adapter would be faster to update. I was wrong, not sure why but the update wouldn't really load.
I just did Wireless and it actually connects but the update is still really slow, I guess it's a huge update or something.

Just picked up Far Cry 4 and GTA V (both PS4) from shop.ca with the $20 coupon - couldn't resist their charm anymore.
What one should I play, and what one should go under the Christmas tree?
I played through GTAs campaign on PS3 last year and loved it - never played online though.

There is a Canadian version of Nowinstock.net (use the flag selector on the right side of the menu) but it doesn't appear to have the Gamecube adapter listed. You could try filing a product suggestion.

Sorry I didn't realize this page was just US. I clicked on the Canadian site initially but I guess it linked me to the US one.
So, seems like the $30 games at Target may be just those four. There are some other new ones for $15 off their original price (Destiny, Call of Duty, AC:Unity) and some are $20 off (this years sports games, Mordor, Sunset Overdrive). Might also be more in each of those categories. Watch Dogs is going to be $20.
Not an amazing Black Friday. Probably gonna be better come Boxing Day.

Source for these additional titles being on sale?
I did find that they do have a listing for the adapter, however the page doesn't have any stores on it: http://www.nowinstock.net/ca/videogaming/games/supersmashbros/
No problem, thanks for helping out

Nope. Maybe if you're lucky but normally they're not supposed to.

What do you all recommend for headsets that are compatible with the PS4? Any on sale?
I do hope Amazon will match Target's Black Friday deal.
Gold Headset. It was on sale for $60 for quite a few times and was priced $20 twice because of price error.

They always have had titles a few dollars cheaper in store than everywhere else, even before the cdn$ price increase. One of the benefits of membership

Finally got a Wii U. Anything I should know before spending the rest of the day downloading updates?
Make the most of the DDP before it ends on January 1st.
It only took 1.5 hours I got mine yesterday. Lol
I've been charged. No shipment yet though.
This is an odd request,
I'm looking for a Intel CPU a socket 1155 LGA, 2600,2700,3770k CPU. Does anyone know where I'd be able to get one new or used without paying outrageous prices? Some prices I've seen listed are more expensive than their Haswell counterparts. CanadaComputers doesn't have much of a selection even in store.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

There is a 2600K for 200 in the bst thread right now.
Let me guess, Futureshop/Best Buy?
Amazon hasn't yet shipped my Pokémon OR/AS copies, nor my Persona Q: Special Edition. This is seriously the last time I deal with them for video games, unless they have an incredible exclusive pre-order bonus item.
of course
not that I totally believe the estimated time of delivery, the FS one might show up on the 24th and the BB one on the 25th.
I knew I should have pre-ordered there instead.of course

Never again, Amazon.ca! Never again.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
Same I'm going to return one though! My wallet this weekend is crying ;.;

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Interested in selling one?
nah man I don't think so.
I wondered why you'd ask since I didn't think the SE would sell out. I looked at both sites and they're $90! I forgot about that price hike.

Weird. I work there, my store never did. Maybe it's different in some provinces?

Any word on when retailers will be getting the GC adapters in for Wii U? Had a smash party planned with a group of friends Saturday evening but had to cancel due to being unable to grab one.

Yup, I've been holding out for a sale on PS+ and Live. I guess there's always a chance that Amazon and EB might have some sort of deal.

Awww yes, just what I was waiting for. It's pretty crazy to think this game released for $70 only 4 weeks ago.
