I guess this sale starts 12-22.
I cant seem to look at CAG while at work  ::)

Maybe somebody would be kind enough to copy and paste the list of games over to this thread for everybody here  ;)

That is one nice list :P

So many to choose from.... I am going to have to take some time off of work that day so I can go get something good. (for myself and as gifts)  |D

I was just coming here to post this myself!  |D

This is just too much.  I saw 38 games that I want on that list.  Of course this sale has to hit 3 days before Christmas when I should be spending money on other people.

Hmmm.  I wonder how long this sale is going to last for.  If it goes on for a month or so, I may be able to get a bunch of the games I want.  I'll definatley be hitting up the TRU by my office Thursday morning.

Digital Devil Saga....MMmmmmmm :drool:

21 - 23 games I would want to pick up  :P


I always pick up one really good gift for myself for Christmas. Maybe this year, it will be 23 gifts  :laugh:

This is my Xmas list LOL

Thanks for posting it all i am going to do is crop it print it out and hand it off.

I especially like the MK deceptions for 10$ w00t

This sucks.  I have no money. :(

It probably wont matter.  If you read the thread it seems many people are buying ahead of time and then comming back on Thursday to price adjust.  So there probably wont be that great of a selection anyway.  

Does anyone know if this sale is really happening?  I signed up to CAG just to read this thread and it didn't seem to me that there was a real clear answer to this.

Call me skeptical, but it just seems too good to be true....I mean Resident Evil 4 for ten bucks!

You know, it seems to me like this sale was going to happen anyhow. I mean, werent they doing  50 - 75% off green tag items this time last year?

If it's for real and somebody can (if Captain can't find em) pick up Mario Party 4 & 5 for GC for the Antimind. You just can't find those games here and if they would come in, $40-50 Canadian USED. I really wanna grab em but santa hates me :/

I had you in mind when I saw they were on the list. I dont remember seeing MP4 last time I was there, but I will probably hit a few TRU's on Thursday  :P

Either game will prolly be difficult at best to pick up. That's why I posted. Figured if you can't locate em someone can. Even if you got em and someone else got em I'd buy em off em and fucking sell the extras up here ;)

The sale is today!


Go out and buy!

I have 3 crumpled dollars and a gastank on E.

Maybe i can luck out and me telling family about it they will go and pick up some sweet games for me for Xmas.

I did awesome!

Only thing I could not find that I needed was Mario Party 4 and 5 for the Cube (for Laurel)

I have an extra copy of Resident Evil 4 (GC), FF 1/2 Dawn of Souls and Killer 7 (ps2) for trade.

I would like to trade for Mario Party 4 or 5, so I can get them for Laurel.



Anyhow, I picked up the following for me:

Resident Evil 4 (GC)
DBZ Sagas (XB)
NARC (XB)
Final Fantasy 1 and 2 Dawn of Souls (GBA)

PS2:
Bard's Tale
Digital Devil Saga Deluxe Box Set
Killer 7
Psychonauts
Romance of the 3 Kingdoms X
Star Ocean


Got these for Scott since he was at work....

GC:
Pikmin 2
Resident Evil 4
Viewtiful Joe 2

Xbox:
Blood Rayne 2
Doom 3
NARC
Trivial Pursuit

how packed was Toys R Us? I was thinking about stopping on my way home.

Not very at one of them , but another had 3 guys loading up multiple copies of games they thought would fetch a good resale value....

What a bunch of assholes

I had great luck as well.  I live in an area where there are no TRUs so I had to drive 1hour and 45 minutes to Columbus, OH and I am glad I did.  The TRU that I went to was low on the GBA games on the list but had many of the GC games.  I got:
GC:
Resident Evil 4 (They had Several Copies)
Pikmin 2
The Legend of Zelda: 4 Swords
FZero
Wario Ware

GBA:
Metal Slug Advance (Last One)
Wario Ware (Gift)
Advance Wars 2 (Gift)

I got to one at 7:45 am and there were a few guys waiting in the lot...at 5 till we started getting out of our vehicles...about a half dozen in line. Then when the doors open only 3-4 of us go to the video games...weird.  Anyway, it wasnt crowded at all.

I did OK.  I didn't have much cash to blow, but I got some titles I've been meaning to grab for a while

Final Fantasy 1 and 2
Wario Ware Inc.
Alien Hominid
Metal Slug 4 and 5
Romance of the 3 Kingdoms X

They had about 5 copies of Resident Evil 4 that I wanted to grab, but I put it on my Christmas list so I didn't buy it in case I get it for Christmas.  Both of the TRU's that I went to were completely empty.  Unfortunatley I couldn't find a number of the games that I wanted, namely Mario Party 4 and 5, Digital Devil Saga, Romance 9, and Ninja Gaiden.  Still not bad though.

If you didn't go yesterday, go today because supplies are running thin. I had to stop at 2 TRUs to get the games below:

RE4 (GC)
Prince of Persia WW (Xbox)
Doom 3 (Xbox)
and Sid Meier's Pirates (Xbox)

Rick also got me Bard's Tale for the XBox

I went back yesterday and grabbed Dragon Ball Z:  Sagas for Xbox.  Hell, for 5 bucks you can't go wrong.  

Oh yes you can.
It got ratings very very low.

Action/ Adventure with RPG elements.
And you said it was a Beat'em up.
IMO that can't be as bad as the reviews i saw.

Went at lunch yesterday.  Got:  Need for Speed-Eve of Destruction.  
That and Tron2.0 were the only games off of the entire list that they had out.  The asshats working in the game dept were actually bragging about having put all the rest aside for themselves to sell on eBay.  I'd love to have waited for them out in the parking lot, beat the hell outta them, and then break every game they bought.  You know, some of us buy games to, well, PLAY.  Fucking asshats!

Should of talked to the store manager.

Should have called the district office  :ninja:

It's not too late to make a phone call!

I was out so i went for hahas.
Not one single game on this list could be found.

They had about 30 copies of newer games though.
I think there where all of 40-50 different games available across all consoles lol

The other thing of note is that the games still show their original prices on the box, but they ring up at $9.99.

Oh...I don't know if you all seen this but you can get Price grabber rebates ($5) on some of these games...check the link at the top of the thread...the guys over at CAG have price grabber written beside the ones that are elligible.  This means I got freakin' Metal Slug Advance for 5 bucks.

I hit one Toys R Us today. I was in and out in 10 minutes and picked up 5 games. I got 2 DS games that weren't part of the $9.98 sale, they were $9.99. The extra 2 cents didn't bother me too much.

DS:

Polarium
Feel the Magic XY/XX

Xbox:

Fatal Frame II

PS2:

Alien Hominid
Metal Slug 4/5

Alien Hominid was the main one I was after so I was pretty happy. I was also glad I got to nab 2 DS games and Feel the Magic was one a few people recommended I get.

the one i went to had all the games in a bin by the register. they were all red tagged $9.98. I did check the aisles as well but only the GBA aisle had a sign but the games listed on it had already been moved to the bin.

Den, which TRU was it?

the Westland store at the corner of Wayne and Warren.

Is Polarium any good? If so any chance you could pick me up one? I have paypal...hehe Lemme know... First though I'll call the one here tommorrow to see if they have anything good goin. One dude I know strictly through gamefaqs (also in Winnipeg) told me about some great sales on DS games goin for $4.97, one of those being Nanostray... I know we don't have the uber sale you guys got goin down there. Shit I wish I lived in the states still just for that damn sale.

OMFG
If you can pick up some sweet games like nanostray for me at a price like that i would SOOO send you the cash.

I just got a DS for Xmas but i have no games yet.
I think i am going to run out to GameCrazy right now and pick up Mario Kart DS since i just found out they are open.

I am going to check out TRU again tomorrow and look over their DS games and then hit up Circuit City and check the discount bin. I think the only thing they had in there was ping Pals though  :yuck:

Polarium is pretty good. It's a puizzle game that uses only the stylus. I bought one of 2 that they had. I can go check to see if the other is still there but don't hold your breath.

Oops i never answeed your question lol

Yea Polarium is pretty good.
I think that the 30$ i payed for it was a bit much though.
If you can get it for say 20$ and less go for it.

The premise of the game is to line up either black or white horizontal lines by running the stylus over the blocks in various lines that cannot cross.
So after you think you have done it correctly you tap the stylus on the last block in your line and it flips all the selected sqaures.
If 1 square in a horizontal row is a different color it doesn't change.
I think the horizontal row thing is the only comparable thing to tetris.

Otherwise AFAIK this was a rather original idea.
Something fresh :)

Yea, no good sales (boxing day) here for DS games. Terz, if you go call me if they have good games at good prices. If there's somethin I need and you're able to pick it up for me I'll be your best friend...lol  Next time I'm at TRU I'll see what they have and whatnot. I didn't go today, just called. Too far and two busses to get there for me to just run out for no reason.

I bought Polarium again this time for 10$ and Doom 3 for 10$

Before buying Polarium i called up GameCrazy (i have all the local game store numbers in my wallet) and told them my dillemma and the guy said that if i could get the stickers off it would be no problem returning that one.
I was very happy.

So i traded in my new 9.99$ copy of Polarium and got something like 31.50 store credit which i put into Advanced Wars DS |D

I also picked up Poarium and Feel the Magic at Toys R Us for $9.99 each.  They had the Retro Atari compilation for the same price, so I grabbed that one.  The one by me didn't have all of the games marked down yet, and I didn't have this list with me, so I didn't get to check on the other DS games on the list.  Perhaps I will go back to see if they have the others.

From what I've seen, most TRU's didn't have the games marked down on the sticker, but they do ring up for $10.  Thats how the two I went to were.

All the games I got had a $9.99 sticker on them.

Yep, but there was one store that actually just had them in a bin and no price tags were on them.

Never hurts to bring up a copy of a game and ask the price  ;)

Thats what i did when i went again to the much larger TRU that is a journey and a half to get to.

If you follow any exits that actually go to Holyoke you will never reach it.
Thank god i tailed someone there lol

I don't know if you guys caught this yet, but a few more games were added to the $10 sale yesterday.  Namely Geist, Metroid Prime 2, Bomberman DS, and Splinter Cell:  Chaos Theory.  The TRU I went to last night didn't have these with the rest of the 10 dollar games and they still had them with thier normal price on them.  I'm going to go out on my lunch to buy Geist and Metroid, so I should know if these games are included or not by 3.


Edit:  I stopped by a TRU by our corporate offices while I was out that way, and got Metroid Prime 2 which had a sticker for 9.98 on it.  They didn't have any of the other games, so I can't verify yet.

Hmmmmm maybe i will go back and try and grab a copy of those at the near by TRU.

MP2 isn't a big deal to me but Geist was supposed to be good and Bomberman is just another DS game i can toss on my growing pile.
That is a maybe.

Then again maybe i will just go buy Guild Wars...

Geist is also only 10$

After buying an M rated game for my bro the lady thought that i didn't look the same on my license.

And then when a game that had 50$ tag on it rang up as 10$ she seemed even more irritated with me.

that's because all you teenagers look like you're up to no good.

I found a copy of Haunting Ground last night. It's on the list but was not in the bin last time I was at this particular Toys R Us

Don't worry about being in the bin or not ;)
Many of the games on the list where not in the discount bins or marked at thr TRU near me.
The one in the Holyoke Mall on the other hand had a table with games piled about 3 feet high.
plus 2 other bins filled mostly with the same few PSX games and a bundlepack thing for GBA. It had a GBA video Majesco Headphones and some Cartoon Network game.
I prob should have grabbed one 10$s wasn't bad price...

Could someone grab me a copy of Polarium? I can paypal the loot.. I only have credit card payments through paypal but I will throw in some extra loot for the "paypal tax".

I don't think I've seen any Polariums, but I'll keep an eye open for you.

I stopped by another TRU this weekend and got Romance of the 3 Kingdoms IX.  I also saw quite a few copies of Neo Contra at another one.

I haven't seen any since I got my copy either. I've not seen any other DS games actually.
