The deal is gone, so I'm guessing it would've been a steal if you purchased it hahah
For some reason, that link redirects it to the Amazon Canada listing.
I placed the order on Amazon US, where the deal is still on, and the price comes up to ~$39 (shipping & import duties included).

Oh true, you must've fixed the link then? That sounds like a pretty good deal to me, personally

Check your local library. Mine got more than one copy of Digimon.

The game's pretty good, I've played like three hours so far. Story's nothing to write home about but the battle system, breeding mechanics, and OST are top tier.
Also, I rented it from the public library so I didn't pay a cent to play it, a humongous plus.
Nice. I get 30% off this as well. What was the original price?

Wtf?
Libraries rent out games now?
Time to renew my library card XD
This sounds heavenly; can't wait to play the game :3
Check your PM.
Thanks! What I meant to say was that your link is actually working now, sorry for the misunderstanding.

DualShock 4s are also on sale at Amazon.ca for $49.99/$54.99 (Uncharted 4)
https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00D82Z4YO/
The ones near me do, for sure. I think the four major library systems within 30 minutes of me all rent video games, with one actually going as far as to buy games from EB Games around launch.
The others can take 2-4 weeks to get stuff in (ie. one is still waiting for Star Fox). That one has a limited budget and only gets certain games. Sometimes they pick dumb things that won't appeal to everyone.
I'm not saying that Naruto, One Piece, J-Stars, Digimon, etc. are dumb themselves, but for the demographic in this area I don't think they were the smartest purchases. They've been sitting on the shelves when I've gone in. Same with Book of Unwritten Tales 2. They got those, but didn't get Arkham Knight because it was too mature, nor did they get MLB 16: The Show. But they are getting DOOM lol.

Anyone preorder Zero Escape on Amazon.com when they had the watch preorder available? I'm wondering if it's worth keeping it considering I assume it's not that great a watch. lol
I did and yes its worth keeping. Those watches are great. Still have mine from vlr. it's nice.

So they're not like dollar store plastic watches?
No. But they aren't 70 dollar watches either. They are fun items to reference the series. (I only have ever seen the 999 watch once, and own the vlr one. No idea about the ztd one since its not out yet)
Thanks for the heads-up. I hadn't gone to BB yet to price match the ebgames deal.
Saves me the trouble, just ordered the UC4 one to go with my headset.
Not bad at all. I also noticed Nights of Azure is also almost half off.
Edit: The two of them together work out to around to $96 CDN, which would roughly be $42 + tax each. Gonna have to think this over.
Edit 2: Pulled the trigger. Nights of Azure isn't even available in English on the Vita.

Is there some sort of Pre-Order discount deal on games that I'm blind to?
During events like E3 (20~30% off), Black Friday, Boxing Week, and occasionally some random holiday weekends.
Unless you mean right now, which... I don't think so.
What?? It shows 69.99 for me.

If you price match Animal Crossing Am***o Festival at Best Buy with Amazon ($28.99), it'll drop to $23.89
the only thing stopping me from pulling the trigger is Isabelle and Digby don't have regular am***o packaging in this bundle
I'd wait for it to drop further. It was $32 on May 10, $36 on May 2, and $40 on Apr. 25.

Amazon shipping has been real weird for me lately. Twice now, what Amazon tells me on the general order status page has differed from the tracking for specific orders. I just got an email telling me my new gaming mouse has shipped. It arrived last Wednesday. Same thing happened with a CD I ordered, where the package arrived (and had tracking on Amazon if you hit "Track Package" on that specific order) well before Amazon even sent me a shipping notice or showed it as shipped on the main order status page. Anyone else notice this?
I don't know but right now I have 2 notices telling me I "asked for a different shipping address", which i've never had before even when I ordered stuff at work...

As Red already pointed out, yeah, I bought it on the US site. I guess the link is redirecting you to the Canadian site?

Whoah, that's a pretty good price. Will pick up at BB.
Hmm, think I'll just buy it now and return it if it drops further.

whoa, did the Canadian boffins forget to botch the price for us?
hmmm
It's the weekly Canadian price fuck-up in our favour.

That's what I thought but I said fuck it and bought the digital any way. Saw a steel case copy sitting on the shelf at EB and kind of regretted my decision. Oh well. Not a big deal. I still have the game for $10 less.
Until Dawn is now $20 on Amazon.ca for those that prefer buying from them over EB Games.

Done. Thanks.
I am buying far too many games lately.
Think I'm just freaked out with surgery coming up. I will need some games for my recovery as well.

Hah, fair enough. I just wonder if it's worth keeping since I have a "cheaper" preorder on Amazon.ca.
Also, still no news about DOAX. Rip customs.
I personally would not pay more than $80-$100 from a private seller. I picked up a refurbished unit from MTC a month ago for $129 with warranty and it's like new. Sold my slim after that.
Thanks to whoever recommended camelcamelcamel a few weeks or so ago. Got emails about the Until Dawn Amazon price drop and if anyone is interested, Project X Zone 2 also dropped to $24.99.
Man. I have something like that coming up too, but still a bit more than a year to go before that big s-day.
I've been not buying it on every possible price drops/deals and I'm not sure how long I'll be able to pass on this. Just not sure if I'd ever get to play this with the person I'd enjoy playing it with.
Oh well, I'm sure there's going to be other sales for it. Worse case on PSN.
Awesome! Thanks for this. I was holding out for a Amazon price drop to match EB, so this is great!
I add physical PSN cards but they don't have them for $5. I think $20 might be the lowest but I spend that amount eventually anyway. I have also added shampoo because why not? I need that too.

Yeah. Received a mystery package today and thought it might have been the games. Turns out it was some blu-rays I had ordered.

Throw in a pre-order. Then just cancel after you've received Until Dawn.
