I think that's a new one. Amazon should match that pretty soon.

FIFA 18 has the same price on Walmart. I am looking for the switch edition though, and that I don't see on Walmart at all.
49.96 walmart and amazon price matches will.
40% off deals from Amazon probably will.
40-60% off deals from Best Buy probably won't, but who knows for sure.

How does this E3 20% on Amazon work?
Does it stack with the Prime Discount?

Madden seems like it might become $49. Price is hidden on Walmart buy still is 79 in cart
My double discount order from. Best Buy with ARMs has a shipping ID (though says I haven't been charged yet) so seems I may get it with the double discount

I will be shocked if this happens. I know Walmart's been adding to the $50 promo this year, unlike previous (last?) year, but these seem too niche for Walmart to bother with. I hope they do, though!
I don't see it.

If you add to cart it doesn't work, no dice
Still annoyed that I missed out on Super Mario. I assume NHL 18 might be different but who knows with Amazon?

Looks like Super Lucky's Tale was set back to $39.99 on amazon.. and they also edited my order and adjusted the $48.00 discount that I originally had and set it back to the correct $8.00. Anyone have this happen to theirs?

Haha to be fair, we've only seen a one minute teaser. To my knowledge, they haven't actually shown the game off yet. That said, NHL hasn't had more than incremental upgrades since like 2008, when the skill stick was introduces. If you haven't played in years, than at $49 it's probably a good deal. If you play it every year? You know if you want it or not.
It's not going to happen, if it wasn't for Walmart or their unintentional glitch there'd be no $50 games at all.

Cheaper than the US.
I was planning on going digital with more stuff but these $50 games are making it hard not to go physical.

Charged when shipped and cancel easily with a couple clicks.
What's the U.S price point? How are we better off. I thought their dollar was stronger.

You probably could have googled this yourself, but it's listed at $499 US, which is $660 Canadian. So we are getting it quite a bit cheaper than that!

It's $499 USD so MS is actually being good about the exchange.
It should be around $660.
Lol, that could be Gaf's new tagline.
Anyone know how to update an old Future Shop pre-order? I've had Crackdown pre-ordered since E3 2014, and I keep getting reminders about it.
I'll need to update the credit card and shipping address. I assume if I contact Best Buy? Or will they need to cancel the order, and do it again?

Call Best Buy
I am not sure but I think Knack 2 will be digital only... Mark Cerny's phrasing:
Did they announce a physical copy for this game? I already checked Amazon.ca and .com and Bestbuy.ca and .com. only BestBuy.com has it but at the wrong price... which made me think: is it possible it could be digital-only?

Just call Best Buy and mention it is an old Future Shop order.
Last time I called though, they couldn't pull up my order. Thankfully, I paid with a gift card. I wanted to switch to a credit card so I could use the balance of the gift card on another Best Buy purchase.
Nah, they showed box art. He just (obviously) wants to plug Sony's own marketplace. He isn't going to tell you to go pre-order at Best Buy

Yeah same here. Will sell these games and rebuy cheap on PSN if I really like them down the road.

Don't they usually promote other retailers with their other big AAA games.

Cerny just shot himself in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Knack culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it...
I don't think so? Unless they have a specific retailer partnership, I have no idea why Cerny in that context (a pre-show interview) would call out a specific retailer.
Moral of the story though, Knack 2 is 100% a retail title. It's available for pre-order and everything.

The Walmart promo is intentional, so buy those with confidence (unless you don't like their ecommerce setup, which is totally fair). Amazon has price-matched many of those $50 games, those should be fine to buy as well. All glitches from earlier this week seem to be fixed, so the best you can expect going forward for anything Walmart doesn't put on sale for $50 are the blanket 20% promos at Amazon and Best Buy.
I don't think anyone's reported earlier orders getting their discounts fixed, so so far so good. Amazon's are likely to stick. Others may not, but we'll see when ARMS ships.
