$327 currently, it's the 6GB version, and it's tiny!

Is it safe to cancel games from my Amazon order as long as I stay over three or whatever the required number was? I initially pre-ordered 27, but I would just like to cancel Recore for this week as I plan on picking it up at a later time. Just wanted to make sure that this won't remove the discounts on the other games!

529 for a mini 1070. Just around the 500ish requested and even better bang for the buck if you can swing it
As long as you stay at three or more in the order, you're good to go!

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm sort of still leaning towards the 1060, but just a quick question. Does it matter how much memory I get with it? As in, is there a huge difference between 3GB and 6GB if I'm just planning on 1080p gaming? Thanks

Don't get the 3gb... The 6gb isn't that much more and it'll future proof you more. I mean you're already paying a few hundred, might as well pay a bit more for a more substantial upgrade. I was actually surprised they're charging that much for a 3gb card when the 6gb 1060s are decently priced for the performance level.
Damn. Got an email from Amazon telling me I had to change the payment method on my Recore order, and after doing so the order page is telling me it's going to arrive next week instead of tomorrow. Going to be disappointed if that's the case, but I can't complain much when the game was only $31 after taxes.
Don't worry, it's just training for you to learn to wait. Apparently the game's loading are long. :/
I was interested in the game, but now I'll wait for a sale given the not too hot reception I've seen so far.

if i were to sell my 3ds xl, would i lose my downloaded games permanently thus being unable to redownload them on another 3ds console later?

Sadly yes, you will need another 3ds first to transfer on it before you sell it, which kinda defeats the purpose if you are selling it for cash.
Yeah, the technical issues are certainly a bummer. But if I'm getting it next week that hopefully enough time for Comcept to put out a patch.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Call Nintendo and they will transfer the game licenses to your new 3DSXL. Save data will be gone though unless you back it up.
Is there a time limit for this? Let's say I sell my 3DS once I'm done with Phoenix Wright in a few weeks.
And in 2 years they release something on 3DS I really gotta play. Would I still be able to transfer those?

I really don't think there is a time limit. I dropped coffee on my 3DS, bought a new 3DS a week or two later. A quick phone call and they had my licenses transferred over.
Cool. Good to know. I'll consider it then. As beyond the Phoenix Wright games and Link Between Worlds, there's not much I liked on 3DS.
Are you going through a specific trade program? I only ask because when I traded my 3DS XL for a n3DS XL at EB Games they let me take it home to transfer everything and then bring it back in to complete the trade in. Most places probably won't let you do that though.

I'm on the Slim train, Edge bumped me up to just under $200 + you get an additional $50 off if I have read that right.
So, what's the status on audio output, is it gone for the Slim?

if you're talking optical audio yep it was nixed
I'm not sure but I think EB has a policy for this now. like they'll refund you the trade credit after you bring the system back post transfer.

Depends on what kind of shipping you went with and where you live. They may not ship it out until 1-2 days after release.
E3 shipping. But its telling me it won't ship till 2 days post release and not in my hands until the 22nd-28th. Ugh.
I live in Toronto. About 30 minutes from the Amazon depot in Mississauga.
They're probably just trying to scare you into upgrading your shipping as they usually do. It does happen though that they take their sweet time. But once it's shipped.. it should be there for you next day at worse.
Contact them. Probably an error occurred when they changed the date to December ?

My Book Depository order arrived today, as did the one Amazon shipped on Saturday. I'm pretty impressed with both companies.
The tattoo colouring book I ordered from BD shipped from the UK, of course, and as happens it got damaged slightly during transit. Someone must have dropped the carboard sleeve on its corner or rammed it into something, because the corner is a bit banged up. It's not a big deal, though, so I'm trying not to let it bug me.

Used 780 can be found in that price if you look around. Or wait a couple weeks for the 1050 to release.
Chatting with them now. I can see that I purchased it when I go to the store listing on Amazon.ca and it links me to the Order (it's the only remaining item on an order list of 3 other things that were delivered) but I can't see that same Order from my Open Orders page.
EDIT: It's still coming with the discount. Phew!
I had ordered it during E3 2015, I believe. I got UC4, UC Collection, Tearaway Unfolded, Ratchet & Clank, and TLG all in one order for the 30% off discount. The other 4 items have shipped, leaving TLG as the last open item on that order. For some reason, it's not showing up on my Open Orders page anymore, despite still having 1 unreleased item in it. But, if I go to the store page for TLG, it does indeed show that I purchased it and then links to the mystery order that's missing from my Open Orders page. Crisis averted.

You reminded me that I needed to cancel some "filler" TLG orders for getting the promo on other games...
Well, depends on how much you paid. If it was somewhat expensive, it might be a good idea to get the book replaced.
Debating whether to get last years 50" Sony 120 hz and 1080p/3D tv for about $540ish or this years XBR49X800D which has 4K and HDR but only 60 hz and no 3D and is about $900ish etc for me. Thoughts? I hate how anything below 50" is low to mid end unless you get the Samsung 49" 9000 which is like $2200+.
1050? Is it gonna be cheap? I don't follow PC gaming at all

Any chance of getting Overwatch for like $40?

Opinion: wait a year on HDR. Input lag drop plus price drop. Also gives you a better idea re content available.
1080p sets are so low priced right now its almost disposable.
In one Amazon.ca order, I have:
- Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X
- Trails of Cold Steel 2
- God Eater 2 Rage Burst
- MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death
Project Diva X and God Eater 2 were released on August 30th, and Trails of Cold Steel 2 on September 6th. MeiQ is bring released tomorrow. Amazon is probably waiting until MeiQ is released, to send them all in one big order, but Prime or no-Prime, there's no reason I should have to wait TWO WEEKS for my Project Diva X and God Eater 2. To make matters worse, there was a pre-order bonus for Project Diva X (carrying case) that I probably won't even receive anymore, since I'll likely receive a game from the second (or third) shipment. Amazon.ca doesn't even have any copies of the game right now...
I know a lot of people complain about Amazon.ca and their shipping in here, and I apologize for adding to the pile, but I just needed to get this off my chest. I'm almost tempted to cancel all of my games with them, E3 discount or not, and just pay a premium by buying the games elsewhere. I feel dirty for supporting Amazon.ca and the way they treat their customers.

I paid $13.35
It's a colouring book I'd wanted, and a pretty nice one, which is normally about $20 at Chapters. The corner is definitely pushed in, but it's not awful.
I don't think it's really worth asking, to be honest, given that it happened in transit and could very well just happen again with an overseas shipment.
EDIT: What the Hell, I let them know. Maybe it'll help improve shipping methods (ie. more durable cardboard.)

Dudes, there's a thread on this already, but it's a Canadian deal so it's appropriate!

If you click through, the CDN price is 45.99 for one year of PS Plus. It's a deal through the Costco website, but you don't need a membership.
Bruh. It's a deal from Costco. So, of course you are going to be redirected to costco
