No, I got on Amazon. Then I got off. Get it right.

 

EDIT - Or was it the other way around?

You got my hopes up for Rayman Legends on PS3, then I find deals for both of the Nintendo systems that I don't own. =(

$15 on Gamefly. Gamefly is pretty good too, because you get everything in brand new condition except maybe the disc (but that's usually in good condition too).

 

A Link Between Worlds is $25. Pretty good price for a Nintendo game.

Noo, stop taking away my excuses to not spend money.

Best Buy is running a 1 day sale. There's a few video games on sale (including some X1/PS4 stuff).

 

There's also sales on both the Wii U and Xbox 360.

 

There's two Wii Us. The Basic with Skylanders + Nintendoland and the Deluxe with New Super Mario Bros + Luigi Bros. Both come with $50 GC and the Skylanders bundle is only $250. You could also easily sell Skylanders for about $30. Essentially bringing down the price to like $170ish. 

 

EDIT:

Also I bought a Wii U because I am a terrible person.

[Kamau]

1 Day sale means I don't have nearly enough time to think about it. If I was already set on getting a console, I'd be all over it...but I'll admit I'm becoming more and more interested in obtaining a Gen 3 console at least (with the reason for not a Gen 4 being based solely on cost). 

 

I have so many other things I need to spend money on though.

[Stars]

So you're considering a NES rather than spending the extra cash to get a SNES?

 

I'm in the same boat. I want the new systems, but I can't justify spending the money on any of them right now, special deals or no.

[Monkeydog]

My thought is I want it, it probably won't go down in price for a while, if not years, and if Smash is coming out in the Winter there probably won't be a better deal in a long time, especially if it starts to pick up steam.

 

I'll probably regret it later though, and see it for cheaper, but eh. Essentially less than $200 Wii U is a deal. Even if I have a massive backlog of PS3 to get through.

 

Plus I'll get to play Earthbound and Advance Wars! Yaay.

[legacyme3]

I'd love to get a Wii U at that price.

 

But I have no money.

 

So nope.jpg

[SpazCat]

I wouldn't mind a Wii U, just to have it. It would be easier to get kid friendly games. Now that Rose is getting into them it seems damn near impossible to find kid games for the PS3 and she will not be touching my 3DS.

 

Besides we'll be trading in VP's car soon to get a semi-new one. So our money is being saved for that mess.

[lazlo falconi]

I probably would have bought it but didn't see it in time. I'd like to get my hands on one, and I probably will as soon as I see another NSMB bundle.

Blamo.

 

$250 with probably no tax (depending on where you live). Better than yesterday's Best Buy deal for the NSMB Wii U in that case.

[lazlo falconi]

Oh cool. Still probably not gonna get it. Although I have the cash right now, it's not a very good time, since I'm actually planning a weekend getaway for my anniversary. (With my wife, not here)

[Monkeydog]

Best Buy has B2G1 for Pre-Owned games online and in stores (I'm guessing). There's a lot there, you can get some decent last gen games for $5. First Party 3DS games tend to be like $25 (if they stay in stock).

[Monkeydog]

$99 Wii U if you're lucky enough to find it at Sears

 

I know there's a Sears close by that has that bundle, but not sure if it'll be worth asking what price it is.

[legacyme3]

Makes me wish I had 99 bucks. That's a great price.

[kspr]

not even for $99. what am i gonna play, nintendoland? i've never played a game and thought "wow i need a big stupid tablet controller"

 

got this for $25 for a better system. it's not a great game, but has some really, really compulsive mechanics.

[Weiss]

I'm sorry but the advertisement for that is hilarious... and it kinda looks oddly sexual as well when played.
