Because of all the extra attention Nintendo's getting lately, I also wish to preorder the NES so I don't miss out.

Fuck me, I just stated I wanted to preorder an Nintendo Entertainment System in 2016.
I don't know what makes sense anymore.

(Late to this)

Yep, back in the early 2000's they aired seasons of The Sopranos unedited. I don't know if they ever continued past season three, given how big The Movie Network and then HBO Canada became. It's nice to have people who don't order premium cable get a chance to watch Game of Thrones, even if the show is big enough that whoever wanted to watch it, watched it by now.

I believe they also aired Band of Brothers unedited, but with commercials (of course).

Got email from Amazon about Mass Effect date:
"Mass Effect: Andromeda"
Estimated ship date: March 28, 2017 - March 29, 2017

Obviously they're taking a wild-ass-guess but it falls in EA's FY-Q4 2016 (JAN-MAR) where they iirc told investors was going to be the release period. Also the 28th is a Tuesday. I think if nothing else it can mean a March release imo.

Same could be said about pokemon, ghost busters, ninja turtles, etc, etc.

When I saw I got an email from Amazon I thought it was them finally adjusting my Pokémon orders... but no it's just stupid Mass Effect :mad:

I tried to buy an Amazon gift card from Petro Canada, but ended up passing. The card wouldn't scan properly, which worried me, then once he did get it to scan it wanted $13.00 tax.

When I bought one at Shoppers, there was no tax. So fuck that.

Any recommendations on where to find a new Vita in Toronto? Looking online, most of the ones on Amazon seem to be well into the $250 range now. I found one seller who was offering them at $150, but apparently they were "new but repackaged in brown cardboard". It seemed dodgy.

I got mine open box from Best Buy two years ago for 140 and it was 100% mint condition. Try the Yonge and Dundas BB location.

Does it come with PC code like Quantum Break?
Click to expand...

Quantum Break did not come with a Windows 10 code if you bought the physical edition, so I wouldn't expect this to either. Also, I'm pretty sure this came out before Play Anywhere and did not have the program retroactively applied to it, but I could be wrong. Either way, almost certainly no.

Damn. Oh well. I imagine guys and gals with Xbone have already jumped on in this deal.

Pretty hard to pass on that Gears deal. I've been holding out on the sales assuming it would be a games with gold title near Gears 4 release but may just buy it.

I knew holding on to that E3 Rise of the Tomb Raider PS4 phantom game from Future Shop from years back was going to pay off...

Finally found out my local store had crystal pepsi and I must say I don't see why this was brought back. It almost has no taste and it isn't that great.


RIP Pepsi Blue.

One day Canada will have you again. One day.

Sounds like tomorrow's deeply discounted EB game will be Halo 5... I was only half listening, but sounded like either $10 or $20.

If it's $10, a pretty great deal. Obviously we've seen $20 before, but still a good price for people who missed it the first time.

hmmm.. contacted amazon.ca to see if they can move the $10 promotional credit (from the ZTD 'delay') from amazon.com to amazon.ca.. they said they can't. I thought I read people here had success doing it... =/

edit: nm , fixed.

Someone at RFD is saying he asked and it's Halo 5 for $19.99. Is there a "deeply discounted" game every day this week?

Do you guys remember if Xbox One and PS4 had any kind of deals for their first Boxing Day/Week right after release?
Wondering if the PS4K will get a game packed in or any deal since it's probably gonna be $500/$550 if $399 in the US. I've got to buy the $110 Call of Duty IW + MW:R, too.
Fucking hell. So much moneis.

I got one of the damaged box 1000s and it is 100% legit. 90 day warranty too.

Seems I'm late to the news that Pokemon Sun and Moon got reduced by 20 dollars for those that ordered in on Amazon Canada. Not complaining since I'll now be able to get both copies for under 100 bucks.
