Indicative of the randomness as my Horizon pre-order just for adjusted yet I'm still waiting on Ratchet & Clank and Uncharted Collection. That being said, all of my other pre-orders did get adjusted. Hoping Need for Speed gets a drop soon. Any odds of them dropping in price below the $60 mark for some games? Sort of like what happened to Street Fighter V.
Best wishes.

I was hoping for sub-200$ TVs ahah.
And yeah for the printer I had a laser one (loved of), but I now need an all-in-one/color/wireless one. Can't wait until Boxing Day sadly, I need it for school.
Was planning to buy my ink on Amazon (the unofficial ones). That's what I did for my laser printer, the toners were like 80% cheaper.

I ordered an Xbox one from Costco last year, online, and it arrived at my doorstep in less than 36 hours, perfectly packaged.
I like that we get stuff like this but we still can't just log in on another Wii U and download our stuff.

Got mine for that price at The Source via price matching with Walmart who didn't have anymore in July 2013!
I'm old enough to remember the Sega Saturn, and the U seems to be emulating that console what with the early clear out sales less than 9 months after release, and then it stays at the same price for a really long time...
Those who are patient will see the sub $150 U's this holiday when the ps4 and One bring out their heavy AAA releases.
Mario Maker pre ordered. And like 8 or so ps4 and One titles for this year lol.

I'm kind of in the same boat. All but four of my games have been auto-updated.
Still waiting on Garden Warfare 2, Madden NFL 16, Trackmania Turbo and Tearaway Unfolded.
Will touch base with Amazon on Monday if they're still at their original prices.
Woot! The ps3 that I've been complaining about not loading discs, I called a repair guy for a quote and he started telling me about what he was going to do. And I though, that sounds kinda simple to check, so I did it! Turns out there was a business card shoved in there, so nothing needed replacing.
Watching Guardians of the Galaxy right now to celebrate and might pick up my first disc game from the bargain bin tonight. What ps3 exclusive should I check out? Never played uncharted, so thinking about that.

Email subject: "Choose a FREE Nintendo 3DS game"
Someone shitty is working for Nintendo of Canada marketing.
I did a double take when I read the topic line on my phone. My hopes dropped when I opened the email...
This isn't the first time they've done this, either.

they have some serious clickbait email subjects going on
Kinda an uneven trade for you isn't it?

if its unlocked: yes
IPhone 6 still gets 550 to 700 on Kijiji depending on condition and size. That is a terrible deal for you dude.
You can ask for more than just a PS4 if you want to trade solely.
If it's in good condition, even if it's locked, you can get more for an iPhone.

The PS4 price for J-Stars on PSN makes no sense. The Vita version is 39.99, the PS3 version is 49.99 so why the hell is the PS4 version 69.99? Shouldn't it be 59.99? I'd probably have to settle for the Vita version at this point and wait for the PS4 version to go on sale eventually.
It's still in great shape. No scratches. And yeah, I'll ask for PS4 and games. I just know I'm going to get the phone ruined from work and then it will be worth nothing. I do take care of my devices but I work construction and am required to have my phone on me.

Iphone 6 is that much still?! Damn, I want to upgrade from my 4 but 400 bucks for a new phone on a plan...
Maybe they want to keep most PS4 titles at a specific price point.
You can always wait especially when they release their next set of phones.
What?! I got it for $0 on a plan.

Since Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 is getting kind of rare I thought I would point out that EB has them in stock for $19.99 used.

How? The 6 has never been available for $0. On a good day you can get a 5s for 0

I've missed most of this adjustment talk because of work. Is Amazon doing it on their own or do I have to contact them for this?

It's automatic, you just have to be patient.

Except for the few games that didn't have the 10% discount applied to them. But yeah, by and large, we're looking at over 35% off on most of these.Last Guardian got adjust as well, now all that remains is Nier 2 I think.
We are basically getting the games for like 40% off combined with the E3 deal
Only auto-adjustment I'm waiting on now is Tearaway Unfolded. Ironically, I think my Nier 2 discount was one of the first that kicked in.

Yup! Exact figure is 37% (apply the 10% discount first, then 30% off that), though in many cases that's off the $79.99 MSRP I still refuse to acknowledge as real. The good news is even off an assumed $59.99 MSRP (the one I believe is real in my dreamland where the dollar didn't tank), the new prices represent a 16% discount. Not great, but not too shabby. For comparison, the original 30% discount off $79.99 represented a ~7% discount over the 2013 MSRP of $59.99.
It'll adjust on its own. Amazon's working through all the pre-orders in what appears to be a random process, so some games will update faster than others and games on your order may update before or after the same game on other people's orders. FWIW, every game that had a price drop on my three orders has now updated.
