Yeah, even in Guelph there were quite a few people at the madoka screening. I actually went to both because I wanted to collect all those cards (which I managed to do, thankfully). Homu was right, etc, etc.

I think the crowd was fairly mixed though, but I wasn't paying attention. lol

I remember seeing cosplay at the Anohana movie. Crowd was actually good but I never got a poster or other goodies....

So am I stuck waiting till tomorrow for Best Buy to ship out Splatoon? Wanna go out and do stuff without worrying.

VGP is claiming the Persona Dance game is going to be $100 for the special edition and $59 for the regular. I would hold off until actual US prices are announced.

That $59.99 price point reminds me of Devil Survivor 2 RB where the Atlus tax and exchange rate brought it up $20 more than we were used to with other 3DS games. Although I'm not versed on Vita game prices, I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case.

I think some places were trying to sell Uncharted as $49.99 at launch and that is when we had parity.

no way man $100 is hard but higher than that? yooo

even I have a limit. $100 is the highest I'll go here

All I want is the soundtrack... if I can secure a Vita or PSTV (if this game is compatible) then I'm good. Which I why I need to preorder somewhere that'll lock in price. I'll cry tears of joy if E3 deals come along and include this.

Pizza Pizza has a Shop.ca promo going on.

Save $40 on $100 purchase. Expires July 15th. Seems like a good deal for those making $100+ purchase durine E3.

Note: Only valid on your first purchase only.

My coupon code for those that may need it. Seems like it's a unique code.

Saw the press release. I got my Japanese CE for about $90 but with shipping it'll be $100 anyways. (http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=GAME-0013649)

At this point I don't think I'll even buy the localization. I will happily choose the Persona 5 blu ray over the keychain and pouch in the NA CE.

I've been ignoring that GCU stuff I've kept hearing about, but that $100 P4D price... Looking it up, it seems to have nice benefits for being a $30 priced membership for a period of 2 years.

Oh, so that's what's been confusing me. So the US version has that 20% off stuff, while we just get the 2x reward points, is that correct?

Well, that explains it.

Yeah. It's barely a service anymore. They used to do perks like bonus points when you preorder and what not, but those are almost all gone. I can't remember the last time an 800 point/$10 promo was a thing.

the game is PSTV compatible

I doubt E3 deals will include the CE. I think it's always been standard editions up for cheap. Best Buy did run a 30% off CEs promo last year tho. Persona Q CE got bumped to $90, snagged one for $63 before tax.

Didn't the E3 deal applied to LE/CE with Amazon? Amazon will save us!

So the Shoppers 20x points Wii U would be better than going for the $100 off with 5 trade in at Eb right now, since I'd have to trade in basically all my 3DS games and rebuy them later :p

We should be hearing about E3 deals in the next week, right?

Assuming E3 deals still exist.

Got the preorder in for disco. Like already said, I hope this hits an e3 20% off thing but this is a good security blanket for now.

98 after tax. Much better than 100 pre tax.

People looking to unload their PS3 Persona 5 preorders: message me on release date. I probably won't be getting a PS4 until it hits around $250-300 in Canada, so until 2020 probably.

Damn best buy seems pretty easy going about the futureshop E3 deal. I had a ton of games preordered and wanted to cancel a few. I selected 1 or 2 from each of my groups of 3 and they did it no problem within a few hours of emailing them. Didn't have to call.

Nice.
