Yeah, their rewards turn over all the time though. Might still be there. And YES, we could be Porkins Twins. I'd wear mine one day while you're wearing yours, and then you'd wear yours for the next 2-3 days (until you win another one in a White Elephant game). It'd be awesome.

There's a pretty good Wii U sale at Best Buy right now. Yoshi's Woolly World, Xenoblade, Super Mario Maker, and more for under 30 bones. Check it!

@Mr_Mustache
I'd wear mine for a whole week. In honor of Porkins.

That should be the title of my autobiography. Or yours. Either, really.

Gone Home is 80% off ($3.99) on Steam right now.

I almost bought it but I think I'm probably going to get a PS4 eventually and can just get it there.

A ways off but Target is doing a B2 get 1 free on all video games soon.

10/30 - 11/5

Their Nintendo selection kind of sucks nowadays though.

Online is usually a bit better. Or you could be like those scavengers woreho go a day bef the sale, buy everything that they want, and then return it and buy it again on the day of.

@Anand Yeah but at my Target there is jack even on a normal day. I guess I could look at online but really I don't need 3 new games right now. Or any.

Hmm, Mario & Luigi Dream Team is 19.99 in the eShop right now, which wouldn't even be that great of a deal for such an old game but it's surprisingly tough to find this one cheap. Maybe I should grab it up.

A bunch of other eShop games on sale too.

I'm too lazy to post them all but here are some of the best deals in my eyes:

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team - 19.99
Fire Emblem Awakening - 19.99
Star Fox Zero - 34.99
Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma - 27.99
Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward - 12.49
SteamWorld Heist - 11.99
Freedom Planet - 7.49
FAST Racing NEO - 7.49

A lot of physical Nintendo games become rare these days. They print pretty conservatively. Which isn't such a big deal, since everything's available digitally, as well. However, collectors will always exist. You know what's funny? The retail version of New Super Luigi U is going for, like, $80-$150 on Amazon. Should I hold out a little longer or sell, sell, sell??

If you use Visa Checkout at Best Buy (a Visa card is, oddly enough, not required), you can save $25 off of every $100 order. This also stacks with Gamers Club Unlocked, which already gives you 20% off of every sealed game (and any pre-orders). This is a REALLY GOOD DEAL, people. Physical Nintendo games hold their value very well. And it ends tomorrow. So stock up on all of your Switch shit for the whole year while you can! The $30 GCU membership may even immediately pay for itself.



I made five orders.

Order #1:
Zelda: BOTW
Splatoon 2
$10 PSN

Order #2:
Super Bomberman R
Puyo Puyo Tetris
Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+

Order #3:
Grey Joy Cons
Bravely Second

Order #4:
1-2-Switch
Super Mario Odyssey
God of War III Remastered (gift)

Order #5:
Mario Kart 8 DX
ARMS
$10 PSN

TOTAL DAMAGE: $430! (About $85 per order.) Stupid Illinois state tax!




@Hero_Of_Hyrule
OH, you're referring to New Super Luigi U. Yeah, I think it'll probably appreciate. Unless Gamestop randomly prints more copies, or something, like with Metroid Prime Trilogy and Xenoblade.

I have a whole bag of stuff to sell. I kind of just want to get it out of my house. So lazy, though...

@Anand

WHOA! That's an incredible deal right there.

Making an order now for some Amiibo that I still haven't bought which are most the early Super Mario line and the Alternate Splatoon colors. I'm getting closer and closer to a complete collection.

Also Best Buy has some of the earlier "rare" ones like Gold Mario, Lucina, Pit, etc., so hop on this while you can if you need to fill out some spots in your amiibo collection.

AND CHECK THIS OUT!

The Skylanders Superchargers Pack for Wii U is only $3.99 with GCU. That's insane. So if you care about Skylanders or want that Donkey Kong amiibo/skylanders crossover thing, now is your best deal for it.

EDIT:
Wanted to get my Breath of the Wild pre-order as a part of that discount action, but unfortunately that means that it would arrive the next Friday rather than launch day. So in trying to get a bigger discount, I just doomed myself to trying to get the game from a store on launch day rather than having it shipped to me. Oh well... I'm not too worried about there not being enough copies of the game at launch, especially around my area since it's rural.

Damn, it says it will take 24 hours to activate the GCU membership. I should've paid more attention yesterday

@Paleo_Orca Thanks mate, snagged! I don't collect the figures, but I have a few of the other Skylanders games. They're fun enough in their own right.

@Anand Is that the price for used, or sealed? I may have to consider selling my copy along with NSMBU, and getting the combo pack...
01/21/17, 20:33   
@Anand

Thanks for the heads up! We went out to get one of them Gamer Club Card things just now, so hopefully we won't miss the extra sale bit. Seems like it says it lasts until the 25th? Of course, even if we do miss it, the Gamer Club makes brand new Switch games $48, so that's pretty spectacular.
01/21/17, 23:04   
@Mop it up
Sealed. (Also, keep in mind that my value estimates are based on two seconds of research on Amazon.)

@J.K. Riki@mrbiggsly
Yeah, it looks like it got extended. You GCN newbs are in luck!

$48, $40, $32... But, yeah, the 20% really adds up over time. Remember that it also applies to games that are already on sale, as long as they're new.

By the way, people, you can pad out the $100 with, like, eShop cards, but the amount of the credit will decrease. Experiment!

@Paleo_Orca
You can also use this deal with in-store pickup. I like that option, since I don't have to bug the mailman.

Where's my spy camera?!

Oh, regarding good deals, GameStop has a surprisingly good one this week for those of you who've got a Switch preorder there. You can get an extra $20 credit for trading in a Wii U or 3DS towards a Switch preorder, or extra $30 credit if you're part of their own Gamer Club program thing.

The Wii only gives $20 on its own, but I think you can get $35 if your Wiimote is a Wii Motion+. And both those get the extra 20 or $30.

The real deal is the 3DS. Trading in the original will get a surprising $90, plus the bonus 20 or $30.

You can also get an extra 50 or $75 towards trading in a Wii U. But don't trade in your Wii U!

I mainly thought the 3DS deal was good, especially for such an old system. But this is all for store credit, and it expires after tomorrow!

I have to figure out where to trade in my Wii U for the best return. After the Switch arrives, I will never turn the poor thing on again and I know it. (Gotta finish Color Splash first, of course.)
