If you can find a deal on a non Kindle reader, you'd benefit. As far as I know they still don't work with canadian libraries so you'll be locked into buying off Amazon or converting any ebooks using software/plugins like Calibre. I use a Kobo Aura and I like it.
So the product got updated from it's generic name with absolutely no information to a related product with info, pictures, Prime and fulfillment by Amazon. WTF Amazon. I'm gonna put on my tin-foil hat and say Amazon purposely hijacked its user's accounts to boost the rating of one of their sponsored products.

As a follow up to my quote above, I found the 3DS on Amazon but is says Currently unavailable : https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B074NDKDWR/
I have no experience with this kind of message on Amazon. What's the best way to go about finding out when pre-order opens? F5 I guess?
Edit : Ah, I looked again while signed in and I have the option to receive an email when it becomes available. I guess that's my best bet.
You better hope it's not popular or else it'll sell out before you get an email. The email doesn't go out right when it's available, it's usually many hours after the fact.
Dang. Ok thanks a lot for the heads up. I'll F5 this thing then.

Thanks to newegg's 25 off 200 promotion, i finally bought the ssd i want. I should have bought it back in January for roughly the same price.

Well, I managed to get one of the games switched. It was WW2, which is the game I care about the most out of all the orders, so that works out well. Don't think I'll go through this trouble again to get the others changed, though.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
"Sorry, one or more coupons you've selected are not available at this store. You can browse your store's coupons to find another one."
No Dominos for me.
Edit: Code here is 8710.
I just placed an order using code 8545
Thanks zroid

I've been refreshing the Amazon.ca listing like a fiend. It's been there since about 10am today. I'd say if you want to cover your bases you should simultaneously be checking with local EBGames locations for instore preorders.

PSN doesn't even try to be competitive anymore sadly.
I makes buying it on steam seem much better, heck even hellblade is cheaper on steam and that just came out.
Yep. I really wish there would be a universal price here in Canada, it's super weird for non-$79.99 games being all sorts of prices on various platforms.

Wait for the Bay to have a 15% off coupon or something
Or look out for a sample sale

Oh hey BJ
How would I find such a coupon?
And sample sale...?
Sorry, I'm ignorant of such things. Not a good consumer.

Sign up for alerts from the Bay, everything eventually goes on special
Or check RFD everyday, people post warehouse/sample sales from time to time

Looks like Fallout 4 is getting a Game of the Year Edition. Up for pre-order @ Amazon

They should really stop doing that.
They should just be forced to specify who gave them that GOTY mention on the cover
The game came out two years ago. 😂
But they clearly want to do this to support their curated mod store. Makes sense.

Bethesda is becoming one of my more hated developers.
I was honestly gonna go to pick up some Ray Bans to replace my stolen ones after work today, but I might just do this and wait...

preordering it just in case, but wow that price is madness
in comparison with the premium edition ($99.99), for an extra $160 you get:
- Season Pass
- artbook
- mini soundtrack cd
- Chibi Mechanical Rotating Diorama
- Lofty Plush
- The Making of Ni no Kuni II Blu-Ray
- a display case for the 3d papercraft

You always need prime.
If anyone is super interested in a switch, Amazon ALWAYS has several batches that happen through the day.
It's not very difficult to get a switch at this point, atleast from Amazon.

Thanks, guess I'm heading to EBGames after work
neon now up as well
I've been tempted by the plain edition but I just knew this one was coming out eventually.
Now it just needs to hit that $30 price point and I'll finally buy it.

Man, $80 for Fallout 4 in 2017. They could have maybe got away with that a year ago but no way that stays full-price for long.

$49.99 within a month.

OMG I need it.
Hopefully EB has a Trade 2 for it because I'll do it for the keychain.

DEAL - EB Games - August 11-13
Get $50 when you trade in a Dualshock 4.
Get $30 for a PS3 controller.
Might be a good time to get rid of any old controllers you have lying around.
