Either it's selling well enough as it is and Nintendo isn't willing to cut the price.
or
Nintendo isn't willing to cut the price but the stock is low enough that the retailers don't need to throw out the door just yet.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
There's a deal on Amazon.ca right now.
Buy 3D World Bundle get Tropical Freeze free!
Ain't half bad, but with the dollar being shit - it's hardly not surprising we are seeing less deals this year.
I think the best deal for BF will be the $280 SM3DW WiiU bundle + $25 GC at RCSS with no tax.

I agree. I bought mine at SDM for $300+tax and it came with ~$115 in points (redeeming this weekend during the bonus days) but if it were available I would have considered the superstore deal.

We do, but they happen May 5th. Cinco de Mayo is Spanish for 5th of May so that's when it takes place.

RCSS will have it for 29.99 on BF, supossedly 39.99 at Costco now
Oh, nice! Thanks!
I've been holding off playing Bayo for the same reason.

So who else is gonna line up for black Friday tonight? I was wondering what the best time to go was since I've never done this before (not even on boxing day). I'm planning on going to Wal-Mart and their doors open at midnight

Nah, the internet exists. I haven't lined up for Boxing Day/Black Friday in a loooong time.

i did last year for boxing day, this year, def' no. im staying online. im not getting much anyways
Plays just fine with the GamePad.
Way better with the Pro Controller.
Depending on the deal and available quantity at the location, some people line up a day or more early. A few years ago I tried going 6 hours early on boxing day and the line was just ridiculous, so I went home. I'll stick to ordering online.

Wait Nvm the Wal-Mart flyer said the online deals start at midnight tonight. But it doesn't say if the store opens then. AHHHHHH

All I pr badly need is an iPad as a gift, probably iPad mini so I might try and get one from Walmart! Not sure they will have enough stock though!

Am I missing something?..
They also don't have the TIV on the BestBuy site for Smash 3DS which is weird.

Well we'll see after I finish up 3D World. I really didn't like playing Smash with it.

Just checked the website and it shows that the 30% rebate is active since noon EST.
Has the price changed for Wii Party U on the eShop?
I played with both and I honestly don't understand your claim that the Pro is "way better". If you have one and are not doing off-TV play then yeah you might as well use it, but if you don't then it's by no means an inferior experience to just play with the GamePad. Definitely not a reason to avoid the game just because you can't find a Pro.
Got it at costco last month, $40 on clearance.

Gah looks like physically going to walmart is only from 8AM - 10PM. Looks like I'll be waking up early tomorrow 
According to the KW record, lots of sites mostly media have been affected.
So either you all have the same virus or some major hacking is going on.
It's a 3rd party sharing tools script used by all those sites that was hacked and modified.
On another note, I went to my closest EB and they're no longer selling the AC Unity Season Pass. YMMV, but I didn't get squat.

There is a thread on GAF dealing with PSN Black Frday deals. Someone posted the leaked Brazilian PSN Black Friday deals. A couple of notables (for me) were Shadow of Mordor for $30us and Diablo III ultimate edition for $35us. I hope this shows up on the Canadian store.

Kinda pissed that W101 is more expensive on the Canadian eShop for BF.
I wonder why the other games in sale (except Wii Party) have the US prices.

All the other games have the same pricing normally as the US eShop, but W101 and Wii Party U are $5 more expensive.

Both Forza 5 GOTY Edition and Dead Rising 3 are $20 at thesource.ca right now -- they weren't supposed to be that cheap until Monday, but I guess they jumped the gun? Ryse was also supposed to be (or will be) $20, but it's not even showing up on their site anymore.
Dead Rising 3 and Forza 5 GOTY edition, $19.99 each at the source. Available online.

Everywhere has those laws but never enforces them. I buy my shoes from an outlet store that is always 35% off.
The regular price for groupons is often a bs price that nobody pays etc.
Not terrible. I wonder if they'll announce the sales today or wait until tomorrow.
EDIT - looks like the list (but not the prices) have been recently posted:

Oooh, Transistor!
BTW, dick move by my local Target. They are currently selling Killzone PS4 with a clearance sticker for $29, knowing full well that it'll be $15 tomorrow. Tricky bastards!
I'm kinda set on doing a big upgrade to my whole setup this Black Friday.
FS seems to have a bunch of sales on on TVs, but in the flyer its vague (eg. "All Sony TVs on sale" but only showing one) so I'm just gonna have to wait until the website changes this evening to figure out what's worth it.
I really to get a receiver but no great sales have appeared on the mid range stuff like the Yamaha RX-V477. I might keep an eye on BestBuy.com to see if they do anything. Could ship it to my box in the US if it'd be a good deal even with the risk of paying duty.

The only thing I will be getting on Black Friday will actually be on Monday when The Source has Xbox Live for $39.99, and it is online so I won't have to go anywhere.
With E3 pre-orders, especially since I was lucky with the cheaper Amazon pre-orders when they messed up, I've gotten all the games on launch day for a very cheap price. Sometimes cheaper than these Black Friday deals.
What I was looking for was a deal on Dragon Age Inquisition, Master Chief Collection and Amiibos, which there is no sale for.
Bring on Boxing Day!

Walmart.ca just charged my CC for the GameCube adapter. So far so good!
