I picked up Ico yesterday at a closing KB near me for 12.49. It was the last copy and I didn't feel like waiting till Saturday to hopefully save a dollar or two and most likely it would have been gone anyway. I picked up Conker's Bad Fur Day today at the same KB for 10.59. I skipped that one when it first released, glad I have it now. :)

The didn't have many games left today and what was left was junk(to me).

Shit, that wasn't in MA was it!?

Northwest Indiana heh.

Just got back from the Daly City, CA KB. They are doing the sale on Sat....I tried to reserve some games but the guy behind the counter refused - "I haven't even saved any for myself, yet." :P

That's the one in Serramonte, right? Which sale is it?

Pineville, NC (Carolina Place Mall) - no sale at all

Rock Hill, SC (The Galleria Mall) - 20% sale, not the $10-20

I was stunned that the Galleria store wasn't going out of business or pulling their games. Thankfully I didn't allow my hopes to get too high on this deal.

Of the ones I've called so far, 2 or 3 know there's a sale tomorrow, but none of them actually know what the hell it is. Is this like some secret promotion?

It pretty much is a secret, Chris. The LIST IS BEING SENT TO CHEAPY AS WE SPEAK... STAY TUNED FOR IT!

I am going to the store tomorrow. My bet is that the sale is going to happen, but I am not going to fight through a crowd for these games. I will be there early and just hang around if there is a crowd. Maybe something will fall out of somones hands and end up at my feet or something.

By the way, these prices are nice, but most are just $10 off variety. So the deals are not killer. (Nice, but not deals you can get in a couple of months....) But maybe that is just me rationalizing...

oh well. Here's to tons of games.

simpsonps121
12-20-2003, 12:19 AM
Ouch. But there are lots of games I want. Around $150 worth. :-) Wow... Maybe it is better for me if there is not a sale...

jt2k3
12-20-2003, 12:19 AM
Simpson: Otogi for 14.99? Thats def killer.

Togepy
12-20-2003, 12:20 AM
simpson, Not many people know about this sale since it isn't advertised. So you have a very big chance of getting good games.

Can't wait for the full list!!!

I gotta get to that KB in Fond du Lac(WI) tomorrow. I doubt I'll be so lucky, but I hope I can find an XBox there for 1/2 price. They're probably pretty well cleared out by now though. I know the KB in Madison that I posted about earlier is

anyone know what the deal will be in the KB in NYC's Manhattan Mall???

12-20-2003, 12:28 AM
Damn, I called all the ones within 50 miles of me and they are all only having the 20% off deal. Meh, I'm still going to check tomorrow. BTW, I'm in Provo, Utah so any of you around me give me a heads up if you find anything.

The Northern VA KB at Tyson's has been out of business for a while now. This "new" KB is some kind of toy outlet for KB where they're just trying to get rid of old toys. They're actually closing in Jan.
(only open for Christmas, I guess). So don't waste valuable time going to that one.

I also contacted the KB at Manassas (VA). They are doing the 20%. (If you're looking for older stuff, this store's good. I found Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance there just this last weekend).

Fair Oaks Mall (VA) -- still no idea (although the clerk told me he's heard rumors).

KB Toy Works at the "Corner" (7 Corners, VA) is going out of business so I'm assuming they have some kind of clearance going on.

For all the NoVA people, where in NoVA do you guys live? I'm in Alexandria.

I'm in Arlington. I guess Pentagon City for me too :)

Wow, lotsa games...Only disappointing thing is Contra still $20.

Thanks Jt2k3

12-20-2003, 12:39 AM
Yes. Shattered Soldier is still 19.99, but the GBA Version is only 9.99!

captainfrizo
12-20-2003, 12:42 AM
Some pretty good deals. I wish my KB was having this wonderful sale. Maybe I'll check the Galleria store tomorrow just in case. . .

12-20-2003, 12:43 AM
I want Dark Cloud 2 and Crazy Taxi 3 in addition to the other games I want from the first list.

Thanks alot jt2k3!! Can't wait to see what they have tommorow.

Cable387
12-20-2003, 12:44 AM
My store is on the 20% off list, but I'll check it out anyways. If not I'll go to the one in Montclair, since that one is the next closest to me.

jt2k3
12-20-2003, 12:46 AM
pfunK: try reading those lists every day for the past week, and then price changing all of the games we had in stock if you wanna talk about squinting :D

Pardon my x's, checks, and B's.. Its secret Code ;)

X is no in stock (most of the ones with x's are tho)
Checks are fully stocked
B's are Binned (Bargain Bins)

pfunkpearl
12-20-2003, 12:47 AM
Man JT, I could imagine!

So do you know how most stores are doing this? Dumping these games in a bin or keeping them behind the counter?

jt2k3
12-20-2003, 12:51 AM
Well.. My store is one of the freak of nature KBs. We have a full room, almost the size of a small EB, that people can walk in, and choose their OWN COPIES of games, rather than the traditional KB method. Here is an excerpt from the mail pack, so you guys will know the deal in most stores:

"Merchandising:
Stores will need to group all the video software titles together by pricepoint behind the register area. Example: all 9.99 games for all platforms should be together, startng in the first 4ft section behind the counter, and continue with 14.99 and 19.99 games. Use as much space as needed. Use the remaining sections behins the counter to display the rest of your video software."

So, all of the pricepoints are grouped together, not a bad idea.

In my store, everything is still organzied by system, the crap games in the bins, the GOOD deals on the Best Buy like racks

pfunkpearl
12-20-2003, 12:56 AM
Sweet. I've got my list, I'll be calling first thing in the morning to see if the "know" about the sale yet!

Someone needs to give jt2k3 a prize or something :)

I'm not sure if my KB toys is doing this, but I'm going to check tomorrow, was planning on going to the Mall anyway. Now I just have to gather the will power to get up early tomorrow, my sleep-in day.

Can you buy the games tonight and return them tomorrow for the sale price?
whats the point of that...just trade them in at eb or gamestopn.

Owen
12-20-2003, 01:17 AM
I am saying pay the regular price today to make sure I get the games I want and then tomorrow after the crowds die down, I just go get the price difference back.

12-20-2003, 01:19 AM
OMG! Thre is a KB toys inside Sears in Bend. I wonder if they are participating. With my luck...no.

Stunna-88
12-20-2003, 01:21 AM
Hells yeah! I'll be there bright and early!

Simpsonps, if you'll be at Arundel Mills, maybe I'll see you there (as its the only KB in our area with the sale, to my knowledge that is).

BTW, JT, are you the same guy from IGN (JaredT) who posted the deals? If so, I believe I asked you to pick me up some games, but that won't be necessary anymore. Thanks anyways, and once again, thanks for posting the lists!

jt2k3
12-20-2003, 01:23 AM
Considering KBs close at 9... no sorry

And yes, I and Jaredt2003 are one in the same. Have fun with this deal guys. Maybe Cheapy can start a "What I got at KB thread"

Great list; thanks a lot!

12-20-2003, 01:48 AM
I'm confused as to why another post was made on FW. I mean, the last thing you want is for all the lurkers and eBayers to go early in the morning and buy everything up.

The first post was done to make sure credit was given, but why make a completely new post? If you were concerned that someone would have posted the scans first, then it wouldn't have mattered because the mods would have deleted it as a repost due to the earlier post about the sale to begin with. Why not post the scans in the original thread and make it easier on everyone.

I just think that you will keep playing with FW until you start to get burned like everyone else does from the profiteers, and then your loyal members here will be none too happy.

My KB is having 20% off games right now... does that mean they probably will or will not have clearence tomorrow?

thanks

A few people I talked to didnt even know my local KB was there! All the games just for me.

Romeo
12-20-2003, 01:56 AM
tmei, mine said 8am.

**CORRECTION**

The Wilkes Barre PA store told me they are doing the $9.99-$19.99 sale, not the 20% off sale.

jt2k3
12-20-2003, 01:57 AM
We open at 9:30

And you 20% off store will not have the clearance, sorry.

I'll be heading out early tomorrow and hopefully return with a copy of Brute Force and Otogi.

Thumbs down for the lack of gamecube titles KB Toys. Thumbs down.

Owen
12-20-2003, 02:50 AM
The local KBs around me close at 10 pm and open at 8am for the holidays so I went down to the closest one and they had hardly anything from the clearance list. I picked up Moto GP 2 for the Xbox and Pride FC for the PS2. The manager said they would price match the sale price so I can sleep in tomorrow. I was hoping to pick up Amplitude and NBA Street Vol. 2 but after calling all the local KBs, none have them in stock. It seems many people will be in for big disappointments tomorrow as they did not get any new shipments for this sale and are just pulling the stuff from their current stock that is on the list.

12-20-2003, 02:56 AM
Aw man, not a single one in Ohio. :(

If someone would be so kind as to pick up an extra Boktai, I'd gladly pay $15 for you to send it to me cheap ass shipping style.

12-20-2003, 03:01 AM
Are you saying you called all the KB stores in Ohio and not a single one is having the clearance sale?

Romeo

We open at 9:30

And you 20% off store will not have the clearance, sorry.
Who are you talking to?

Like I said, the Wilkes Barre PA store opens at 8am and is doing the $9.99-$19.99 sale.

Ditto. I am pretty sure my store isn't doing the sale. I called them and they hadn't heard of it (so unless they just weren't informed until the morning of or weren't supposed to say a word until the morning of, they aren't doing it) and that's the only store in my area.

If someone could pick up an extra Boktai and F-Zero GX for me, that'd be great, and I'd gladly pay $35 for 'em. I'd pay you with PayPal (or whatever method you wanted).

Romeo
12-20-2003, 03:35 AM
I thought EVERY KB is doing a sale...

sctakeshi
12-20-2003, 03:47 AM
Nope. Only 400 out of the 1300 or so are doing the good sale. And not every single other store is doing the 20% one either, though really saving 20% ($7-$10) isn't a big deal. You can get used games at half.com for that cheap anyway. The only deal worth much is the huge clearance at the 400 stores that are going to stop selling videogames.

Actually, I think it's the other way around, the stores that won't be selling games have 20% off all games (as they need to get rid of every game), the stores doing the 9.99-19.99 sale are just trying to clear out a number of certain games.

I don't know where my post went, but... The Grossmont Center KB store in San Diego, CA is not going to be selling games anymore and currently has the 20% off sale. Girl I called on the phone said she didn't know about any other sales. I'll be there at 9am.

There is a KB Toy works and KB toys a few blocks from each other in lynwood. One or the other is likely to have the sale. I called one and they said the other store was having a sale, but they would be starting a sale tommorrow.

Am I the only one who found the list disappointing? Maybe I just had my hopes up because my friend told me new releases would be included in this deal.

WhoDey
12-20-2003, 09:35 AM
I just called my local KB and they are doing nothing. I specifically asked for F-Zero GX and was quoted the price of $49.99. I didn't think this one would be doing anything.

grayghost81
12-20-2003, 09:40 AM
BacK!

First off NO ONE was there. They did put up signs though so maybe they'll get some business. I was pissed because they didnt have the three games I really wanted (Avp, Crazy Taxi 3, DDR Max) But I snagged up the following:

Panzer Dragoon, Brute Force, Totaled, Blinx
Xenosaga, Clock Tower 3
Vexx, Donald PK, F-Zero

9 new games for a grand total of 105.90

Not too bad. Not the best games in the world but many are gifts. Thanks everybody!

What's the difference between a Kb Toys store, Kb Toys Works store, and KB Toys Outlet store? Is it just the KB Toys stores having the sale?

Romeo
12-20-2003, 09:51 AM
I just got back. I got Otagi, Amplitude, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Midtown Madness and Xenosaga for $64 in the WILKEA BARRE, PA store. They opened at 8am, like I said, and are doing the $10-$20 games, like I said. :)

2 Copies of F-Zero GX for $19.99, at my local KBToys -- not a game I want, though highly rated -- not worth getting up this morning for. Meh.

Yep. Although, lucky for me, I got my PS2 and Xbox within the last 6 months and missed out on some of the better older games, which I;m going to try to pick up some at the sale. Plus, Boktai for $10 would be a great Christmas present for anyone.

12-20-2003, 10:18 AM
Daytona Beach, FL store is doing the sale. Their selection kinda sucked. I did walk away with a copy of Boktai and PN 0.3. so it wasn't a totally wasted trip.

I just got back from the Dulles, VA store. The place was dead, so I had plenty of time to fish out what titles I wanted from the "master" list CheapyD posted. Didn't have much luck, but did manage to pick up Xenosaga for $9.99 and P.N. 03 for $19.99. Although I didn't even dent the list I made, I'm happy with what deals I did get today. Thanks CheapyD and everyone else involved with this post for sharing information with our cheap-asses.

Well I guess none of those 400 stores are in MN :( Most places had 20% off but none of them sounded like they had the "green dot" sale. The clerk at Mall of America sounded mentally subnormal so maybe they are having the big sale...

Thanks guys. I bought a ton of games, and I am probably going back today for some that were not marked right.

12-20-2003, 11:57 AM
I went to both Medford and Shirley, Long Island NY stores this morning and both were participating. Picked up-

Lethal Skies II
Silent Hill 3
Clock Tower 3
Mark of Kri
Vexx
Chaos Legion
Ico
Was hunting for Rygar and Drakan II, with no luck in either store.

Also picked up Castlevania: Lament of Innocence while I was there, and Final Fantasy X.

Was informed both Selden, and Patchogue stores were also participating, for those in the area. Was told all stores out here are going on with it as well.

Oh, well, I am glad you guys did well.

I just went to the $10 sale and got Xenosaga. Not all the games are that are supposed to be on sale are marked that way. I wanted Panzer Dragoon, but it was marked as $30 and I asked them to price check it and it came up as $30 so I couldn't get it for $10. Just a warning, you may not beable to get every game at the price mentioned at this site.

12-20-2003, 12:16 PM

Just called and went to the Topanga Plaza, CA store, nothing at all did not even see the thing about the 20% off.

Called the Northridge, CA store. The guy said they had some older games for like $15 so they might have the sale, the guy was not really sure, going there after I get off of work.

If they don't have it hopefully one of the other three KBs in my area does which are
Burbank, CA
Sun Valley/Canyon Plaza, CA
Sunland/ Sun Hill, CA

Anyone have any luck in California yet? Or the West coast, thx

Was first in line at the Tukwilla, WA store out of three (all of them saw the list on CheapAssGamer.com :lol: Picked up Dino Crisis 3, Alter Echo, Panzer, F-zero gx, D&D Heroes, and two Boktai's for $108.oo (thanks so much for the post and for the site) MMMMM, videogames. A note that this and the Walla Walla store were supposedly the only two in WA, doing the 9.99 to 19.99 sale. When I left they still have quite a stock especially PS2.

Went to the Kay Bee in Montclair, CA and as reported they're having the $9.99-$19.99 sale although their selection of games mostly sucked. I went in there mainly for F-Zero GC and no luck but I did pick up ESPN Football for $19.99, WSB 2K3 for $9.99 and Indy XBox for $14.99 As far as stock no HOD GBA, no more WSB XBox and only one more of the Xbox versions of ESPN Football and Indy. Glad I went early as they didn't really have much. This was at 8:00 this morning.

The KB in Arundel Mills didn't have much when I arrived. They had games, but it was only a couple of copies of each.

I picked up:

Boktai
Chaos Legion
Otogi
Lord of the Rings: TTT
Panzer Dragoon Orta

Total: $73.45 including tax.

On a side note, they didn't have Midnight Club 2, F-Zero GX, PN 03, or Brute Force like I was hoping for. The guy said that at opening they had a guy come and buy $400 worth of games.

No one buys that much without the intent of resale. Damnit, I hate people like that.

I went to all three K.B. Toys shops in my area. One was only doing 20% off regular price. One had no inventory for anything I wanted, and the final one had Panzer Dragoon Orta but nothing else I wanted, unfortunately. Still, PDO was what I really wanted anyway, and I finally got it for $10. Suck on it, Best Buy!

SoCal: I went into the Santa Monica, CA store right at 8 this morning, and they are doing the $10-$20 sale, but didn't have the greatest selection.

Here's what I wanted:
Shadow of Destiny
Okage
Shinobi
Rygar
Clock Tower 3
Xenosaga
Amplitude
Arc the Lad
Dark Cloud 2
Silent Hill 3
Contra
F-Zero
Splinter Cell (GC)
Boktai

...all they had were Shadow of Destiny (which is odd--that game seems to be uncommon), Clock Tower 3, and Silent Hill 3.

Anyway, thanks so much JT2k3 and Ch. D.

The KB Toyworks at Cook's Corner in Brunswick, ME is doing the 9.99-19.99 deal. I picked up Dark Cloud 2, Silent Hill 3, Amplitude, and Boktai for 57.71. Gamecube seemed to the be the one with the most titles, including Metroid Prime, PN03, and the new Wrestlemania (no F-Zero, though).

Me and my girlfriend both woke up at 6am to head down to the KBToys in Northshore Mall, MA. We got there at around 7:30am, 30 minutes before the store opened, with NOBODY else waiting. When they opened at 8, we were still the only ones there, and basically got to take our time picking games. We ended up with:

Xenosaga: $10
Clocktower3: $10
Amplitude: $10
Panzer Dragoon Orta: $10
Brute Force: $10
Otogi: $15
Boktai (LAST COPY): $10

They didn't have Ico, Contra, or Parapa. Interestingly, they DID have a copy of Ring of Red for 20 bucks, but i didn't really want it (especially after spending $70 already on stuff for me). Someone said it was rare, but it was only going for llike 12 bucks on ebay.

MUCH PROPS TO JT! Had a great day!

The Sunland store had Otogi, PN 03, and Brute Force from your list when I left. I got Moto Gp 2 XB $20, Pride Fighting PS2 $10 and the last copy of Boktai $10. I called every store in the area looking for Amplitude PS2 and no stores had any sealed copies in stock at $10. So if anyone finds a copy and is looking to trade maybe for one of the Circuit City $10 Clearance games, PM me.

F-Zero GX
Disney PK Donald Duck
Bomberman Generation (extra 10% off because it wasn't in the plastic :))
Boktai

I wanted to get Summoner for GC but it rang up as 19.99 and not 14.99 and I had seen it cheaper than 19.99. There was at least one more Boktai there that I saw.

Thanks for JT and Cheapy for blowing the lid off this deal!

They didn't have the sale prices in their computer and tried to charge me $60 but they had a guy putting green stickers on their display cases, called him over, checked the list and I got them for the sale price. Thanks to me they're now aware that the sale prices aren't in their register system.

The malls are a MESS with holiday shoppers, the line at KB was out the door, and nothing was explicitly marked down. There were stacks of games I kinda/sorta wanted, like Otogi and Midtown Madness 3, but I couldn't get in to ask what the real price was.

Silent Hill 3
Mark of Kri
Resident Evil: Dead Aim
Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits
Splinter Cell (GCN)
Agressive Inline (GCN)
Indiana Jones & The Emperor's Tomb (PS2)

I just got back from the Fashion Center @ Pentagon City KB Toys and picked up Xenosaga PS2 for $10 and Burnout 2 PS2 for $20. It was kinda hard to tell what they still had in stock because they basically had a table with the display boxes just sitting there. Some still had the old prices but I grabbed them anyway and had the clerk do a price check. I would have grabbed F-Zero GX and WaveRace but all they had left was the open box which I wasn't interested in.

Oh, one more thing. Their selection of Xbox games was outstanding (@ ~ 2pm) so if you own an Xbox, get your butt down there.

Went to the Brookline & Cambridge, MA stores today. Both stores had the 9.99 - 19.99 sale, and a fair selection, although I suspect the Cambridge one will dwindle fast (mall/store was packed). I snagged the last Panzer Dragoon at Brookline (still left in Cambridge) and MGS2: Substance (xbox) for 9.99 apiece. I wanted Ico or NBA Street 2 (xbox), but saw neither.

BTW, the Cambridge store had signs up talking about the sale, but none of the game boxes are actually marked down. I guess you're supposed to guess or go ask at the counter.

Just got back from KB Toys. I went to the Glendale Galleria, and there selection was horrible, and the line was long, so I didn't pick up anything. So my mom and I decided to head on over to the Media City Center KB Toys, and there selection was decent.

I picked up:

Arc The Lad: Twilight Of The Spirirts - $14.99
Dark Cloud 2 - $14.99
Otogi: Myth Of Demons - $14.99

I was going to pick up Brtue Force for $9.99, but my mom got into argument with the so called manager, so I decided not to bother mentioning the game. I did later on to my mom, and she was pissed I didn't pick it up. I would of probably not picked up Otogi: Myth of Demons and gotten Brute Force instead.

The Glendale Galleria one didn't mark down many of the games and the selections were crappy. The Eagle Rock store was still marking down the games and in fact, I saw the official price list (same one as jt2k3 provided) on the floor with bunch of $14.99 stickers.
I asked the clerk about the Splinter Cell game (marked at $29.99) and she told me it was $14.99. I went to pay and then saw Arc the Lad, empty box (it wasn't on the shelves). I asked the clerk if there were any more copies and she looked. It was a terrible messy there. Games were all lying on the floor. There were people still waiting for their games too. They only had the display Splinter Cell (gave me the disc & manual with the display box). But I got a new copy of Arc the Lad. I also asked for Dark Cloud 2 but no luck. I saw the empty boxes on the floor but the clerk said they couldn't find the game for a while. I saw at least two hundred games all scattered on the floor (behind the counter on shelves and floor) and these people can't even tell one game from another. Whats even worst is that they give up easily and then give you the display one (if available).

Yeah, that was officially the best sale ever. We went to like 4 different KB Toys and picked up most of the good stuff. Thank god for waiting until the last minute to tell your mom what you want for christmas. The only games we couldn't find were like Shinobi and Rygar.

http://www.angelfire.com/ex/barcode/100_1061.JPG

Yeah, Megaman Zero 2 was mispriced at $14.99. I'm pretty sure that was supposed to be the price for the original Megaman Zero. Also, my friend Ivars almost got Project Gotham Racing 2 for $14.99 since the same pricing mistake thingy happened, (put the sticker on the sequel rather than the old one). But they caught that mistake, as well as one on Donkey Kong Country (It was for the GBC version, didn't know that).

But yeah, this is the best christmas ever.

I'm disppointed. I went to a local KB that had the sale, but they were organized like crap, and many games that were supposed to be marked down, F-Zero GX in particular =(,- weren't. None of the employees had any idea what was going on. The line being abundantly long didn't help much either. For being a "BLOWOUT CLEARNANCE EXTREME SALE", it was very disappointing.... On the other hand, the 20% off sale would be pretty sweet, aside from the lines.

The Mall of America lady laughed at me so I doubt they're doing anything at all. Nt too surprised... it probably gets a lot of traffic. I think I may be going to Burnsville tonight though, hopefully they are doing the $10 to $20 thing and the employees are just dumb. If they expect to clear their stock (they're going to stop selling games) at 20% they're nuts. Then again I guess it is the holiday season...

To everybody who asked a store about a sale and got laughed at/blank stares/lied to, you should check out your local stores anyway.

I called the store in my mall and the manager said "Absolutely not" Sure enough, they were having the sale.

Called another local store (twice) first time "No idea" next time "Maybe"

Well I got a crapload of games so Im just glad I went anyway.

Simi Valley, CA, picked up:

Xbox Panzer Dragoon Orta 9.99
Xbox Otogi 14.99
PS2 Silent Hill 3 19.99
GC F-Zero GX 19.99

I was hoping to find Xbox Mace Griffin and Alien vs Predator, and maybe a few other 9.99 ones too, but no dice. Still, can't complain. They had a pretty good selection though, and this was at 2pm. And for anyone else in this neck of the woods, Thousand Oaks KB doesn't appear to be doing any kind of sale, and Oxnard is doing the 20% off.

The KB in Parkersburg, WV is having the $9.99-$19.99 sale. I'm going a bit later. *hopes they still have Boktai and Contra: SS*

What!?!?

I called that store both Fri evening and Sat morning and they made no mention of it. Therefore, I didn't bother going. Are you sure they are doing the sale?

Yes. I got 5 of the 7 games I wanted, including Contra and Boktai. w00t.

I just came back from the Kay Bee in White Marsh Mall (White Marsh, MD) after having went to the one in Arundel Mills (Hanover, MD) earlier today. I called them yesterday and asked if they were going to have the sale but they said they weren't. Well they are full of shit because I was able to pick up Xenosaga ($10), Grandia II ($15), Bomberman Generations for Gamecube($15), and Dead to Rights (non-greatest hits box for the regular price of $20).

What's the moral of this story? Well if your local Kay Bee tells you that they aren't having the sale don't believe them because they are probably so busy they want to keep you out of the store (so they have to do less work). Btw, I cleaned out the last copy of each of those games I listed.

Man, a lot of people in this thread are from Maryland. We must be the cheapest ass gamers around. :D

It's good to show up and have a look...it's also good to know which games are on the "list". My local KB (Norwalk, CT) told me over the phone that they didn't have D&D: Heroes. But I went to look anyway, and found the empty display box on the rack, with a price of $49.99 on it. So I got into the (LONG) line and got a price check...as I had hoped, it was marked down to $19.99. They didn't have any new, unopened copies of it, BUT, as I had also hoped, they still had the game disc and instruction manual in pristine condition from the display box. So I got it, and I'm happy.

PS2 Dark Cloud 2 - 14.99

I rocked the heck out of the KayBees at the Susquehanna Valley Mall in Hummels Wharf, PA. From what I gathered, the mall traffic I had to wade through was a cheap ass gaming purgatory because KayBees was a cheap ass gaming heaven. They ran the 9.99-19.99 sale, and here's what I picked up.

Xbox
Panzer Dragoon Orta (2 copies) 9.99
Ghost Recon:Island Thunder 19.99
The Sims 19.99
Dungeons and Dragons Heroes 19.99
Shenmue 2 9.99

PS2
Dark Cloud 2 14.99
Ico (3 copies) 9.99

Gamecube
Eternal Darkness 14.99

My friend picked me up FZero GX in New Jersey for 19.99. At least, that's what he's telling me.

A pretty good, and costly, day for gaming. I'll start with my KB experience, then ramble a little bit...

They had just started putting the special price tags on the games when I got to KB in Cool Springs Galleria this morning. As he was tagging them, I pointed out a few that he missed, and later told him that PS2 Kain Defiance was, unfortunately, not the Kain that was 14.99, as he had marked it.
Many of the games they had were down to the display copy, so I will mark them as "open" in the list. The discs, manuals, and cases are fine.

I got:

PS2--
Mark of Kri 9.99 open (not the last copy, they had another open one)
Ico 9.99 open
Clocktower 3 9.99 open
XenoSaga 9.99
PaRappa The Rapper 2 9.99
Shadow of Destiny 9.99

Xbox--
Fifa 2003 9.99 open
Brute Force 9.99 open
Panzer Dragoon Orta 9.99
Otogi Myth of Demons 14.99
LOTR The Two Towers 14.99 open
The Sims 19.99

GC--
F-Zero GX 19.99

GBA--
Castlevania COTM 9.99 open

Total: $169.86 + $15.72Tax = $185.58

Things I talked myself out of:
Midnight Club 2 Xbox
Midtown Madness 3 Xbox
Silent Hill 3 PS2
World Series Baseball 2K3 Xbox
Reasoning: I am not really into racing games (plus I have Project Gotham 2, and if I get another, it would most likely be NFSU. Silent Hill 3 is bound to be a GH before I'd get a chance to play it, so it'll be $20 soon enough. I always think I need a baseball game, and when I get one, I play it for a few minutes, then it just gathers dust.

Things I wanted, but they did not have:
Boktai GBA -- I have a copy for myself already, would have been a gift.
Broken Sword GBA -- Not a huge deal, but I like those sorts of games (had it on PC), and I have heard the conversion to GBA was done very well.
Vexx GC -- They had both PS2 and Xbox, but cheapass that I am, I didn't want to spend the extra $5.
Splashdown 2 PS2
Activision Anthology PS2
Amplitude PS2
Drakan PS2
Okage PS2
Winback PS2
ARC THE LAD PS2 -- This is the big one, the only one I am really upset about. Life goes on.
Dungeons and Dragons Heroes Xbox
Dynasty Warriors 4 Xbox
Indiana Jones Xbox
NBA Street 2 Xbox

I ran into a newby CAGer at the store, let him look over the list, and gave him first crack at the Panzer Dragoon (but they had a few in stock, so it turned out it wasn't necessary). I think he picked up Ghost Recon.

After KB, I decided to check out some of the nearby stores...

BestBuy:
Having spent so much at KB, I decided I needed to be a little (lot) more conservative. I got an employee to price check Soul Calibur 2 Guide (knew it was a penny), LOTR Two Towers Guide (couldn't remember if it was a penny, but since I just picked up the game at KB, I wanted to check. It was), LucasArts Xbox demo disc, and what the heck, Zelda Collector's Promo Disc. The guy said the discs were each free with their respective system, I said "oh, you have to buy the system", and he said it's Christmas, and not to worry about it. When I got to the checkout, the people in front of me had over $100 worth of stuff, including SOCOM (PS2 GH) I gave them one of the Gamer's coupons that I had bought on a previous visit (one of the ones that expires next year, so I really hope they restock those soon). When I check out, the Zelda disc rings up at $99.99, but I told him that Jeff said it would be free, and he zeroed it out.

Total: $0.03, and out a $5 coupon.

There is a Gamestop in the same parking lot as BB. I always mean to stop there when I go to that BB, but this was the first time I managed to do so. I asked about the magazine with Deus Ex GOTY and Thief 2, no go. I asked if they had Ikaruga, new or used, no go. I asked about the pacman vs. disc, he said it was free with a Namco preorder, but there are no Namco games to preorder, so he gave it to me :D

Total: $0.00

Target was nearby, so I got a raincheck for NBA Jam 2004 (PS2), i.e. 34% off any "regular-priced" game I choose. I am assuming that consoles are not in the same "category" as games -- any Target employees here who can tell us? 34% off a ps2 would be sweet, but seems pretty unlikely (a guy can dream). I did end up getting CastleVania Aria of Sorrow GBA for 14.98, thus completing my GBA Castlevania collection (already had Harmony)

Total: $15.98 + $1.39Tax = $16.37

I had to visit my friend in the Hospital (Sleep study) after that, but I was pretty much done anyway.

Grand Total for the day: $201.98

I need a good cheapass therapist.

hey now
12-20-2003, 10:09 PM
I was able to pick up:

Xenosaga-9.99
Dark Cloud 2-14.99
Clock Tower 3-9.99
Boktai (last copy=whew)9.99
Shinobi(last copy)9.99
Draken 2-9.99

I wanted to get some Cube games but the only ones included in the sale that I was intrested in were Splinter Cell and P.N.03, and they didn't have either. I also wanted to get Ryger and Ico but they didn't have those either, but all in all good deals for me. I have to do a little more Christmas shopping tommorow so I'll probably pop in again to see if their is anything else I might want.

I feel your pain

the only reason I actually went out today was for Otogi

Yes, I wanted other games, but Otogi was what shoved me out the door

At the second store, I managed to find arc the lad: twilight of spirits and boktai -- both on my backup list in case Otogi wasn't there -- but no Otogi

Now that I'm home, I realize that being a Sega game, Otogi will still be there in some form for years to come -- so I really did get a better deal going out and not getting what I came for:-)

Just got back from the KB in Newburgh, NY. They were doing the 9.99 clearance sale. They had a few copies of Ico left and some f-zero's in addition to a good amount of xbox games. I picked up Otogi and Dark Cloud 2. I am regretting not getting Brute Force right now though. Tomorrow, I am going to check the Galleria at Crystal Run in Middletown, NY. My guess is they have the blanket 20% off.
Thanks to jt2k3 for giving everyone a big Christmas gift.

Went to the KB store in the mall just now still in search of Amplitude. I called them earlier and they said they had alot. I went and there were either none left, the lady on the phone lied, or they couldn't find them. I'm guessing the second one. I did pick up Toe Jam and Earl plus all the other stuff I got in the morning.

If anyone is willing to pick up a copy of Amplitude for me, I'll pay you $10 plus whatever the shipping is through paypal. Thanks alot.

After my original finds this morning, I ended up going BACK out to two more KB stores (since I am a greedy girl and wasn't happy with the first two this morning), where I picked up Grandia II and Onimusha II. Ended up passing on Rygar although I wanted it, because my friend said I could borrow his forever because he's done.

All of my stores had tons of the usually-more-pricey games listed here, like Dark Cloud 2 and Arc the Lad, but I already have them both so I couldn't get in on the deal. Ho hum. Anyways, Games bought from this sale total 9 in all, plus Castlevania and FFX.

*purrr* Mm yummy gaming goodness for cheap makes me deliriously happy. So thanks for posting this info guys, this site keeps making me blissfully happy.

And.. broke. Very, very broke. Naughty cheepassgamer! ^_~

Calling all cheapass gamers in the Southern NH/Northeast MA area! Both the KB Toys in Chelmsford, MA (Eastgate Plaza) and the KB Toys Outlet in Nashua, NH (Westside Plaza) were having the 9.99-19.99 sales. I was able to pick up Panzer, WSB 2k3, NBA Street 2, Otogi, and Genma earlier this evening. No one seemed to know there was even a sale going on (including the people who work there whom I had called earlier :). Your mileage may vary!

Hmmm... got a couple of things but really didn't make out that well...

I think the manager let the employee hold stuff in back (all the Botoki and G-Force) since they hand 5-10 copies the day before.... :roll:

Anyway.... I did find Silent Hill, Gandia 2, and Brute Force. Not bad....

I already had Otogi (which I paid $50 for). Good game....

I'm looking for Botoki, G-Force and Ico.
My store had lots of Otogi, maybe a couple more Brute Force, lots of Metroid Prime. I can also still find most of the Circuity City sale thread games if anyone is interested in a trade just PM me and I can go back.

I think the manager let the employee hold stuff in back .

I can personally confirm this one through a Kaybe employee who came on gamefaqs before this sale became big news -- but I doubt all stores are run that way

http://cgi.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.asp?board=2000105&topic=11701025

^if anyone missed out on arc the Lad: twilight of spirits, here is the Kaybe employee to blame

In fact, I'm all for blaming him for every copy of that game missing from every single store -- even those stores who weren't honoring the sale ;-)

I called that store both Fri evening and Sat morning and they made no mention of it. Therefore, I didn't bother going. Are you sure they are doing the sale?

Yes. I got 5 of the 7 games I wanted, including Contra and Boktai. w00t.


Should have known not to trust clueless employees. I may run down there today when I get back in town but I'm sure they are out of what I wanted by now. Did you happen to notice if there were a lot of copies of F-Zero and Botkai?

Also, are these games marked down with stickers or are they just showing the discounts when scanned?

Argh, my "luck" in getting the last Panzer Dragoon Orta wasn't so real afterall- it won't play in my xbox at all and I had to return it.

If anyone has an extra copy of PDO or Ico and wants to help me out, I'll gladly pay through paypal or another method :). email: pimp_star@hotmailDOTcom

Yeah, I would have to agree with this. Unless specifically told otherwise that your local stores aren't doing a sale (and even then!), check the place out in person if you can. I dropped by two places on Friday, and called a third on Saturday morning, and none of them seemed to know anything about a "sale". That's why I didn't bother racing around in the morning, and instead just dropped by a couple of places during the evening. And lo and behold -- there they were!

I was at the one in Succasunna/Ledgewood NJ today. They still had TONS of stuff. F-Zero GX, Silent Hill 3, PD Orta, a bunch of others.

The GBA games were unsorted but they had plenty of those too.

I grabbed Activision Anthology, Clock Tower 3, Contra Advance and Mark of Kri. Might go back for Brute Force, Amplitude and any other GB games they had. I'm going to check the one in the Rockaway Mall on my dinner break.

After hearing the annoyances, I was surprised that the girl working there was incredibly nice. She obviously didn't know anything about video games, but keeping your sanity working retail at Christmas time is definitely not very easy.

My one local K.B. Toys shop that had anything in stock on sale was a mess Saturday morning, so I went back later and found Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb, Silent Hill 3, Ico and Clock Tower 3. It's too bad their stores aren't more organized.

I would like to say thanks to everyone who posted the KB Toys stores, that had the $9.99-$19.99 green dot sale, in the Chicagoland area...

I went to KB Toys last night and asked the employee for Panzer Dragoon Orta and Otogi: Myth of Demons. He scanned the shelves in the Xbox display case for a few minutes, then said he didn't see the games. I then got as close as I could to the Xbox display case, and scanned the shelves myself, cause I wasn't leaving without Xbox games. After 5 minutes of scanning the shelves, I noticed Otogi: Myth of Demons and soon after Panzer Dragoon Orta! I got the 2 games I really wanted the most! I also noticed other Xbox games I want too, but I ran out of money...

Hopfully I can go back again and pick up a few more Xbox games... :lol:

Well, I missed out on this one. For those that don't want to read 32 pgs of this thread...I had called Fri night and nobody seemed to know what I was talking about. I then called Sat morning before leaving town and they still didn't know anything so I didn't bother going.

While at a relatives house Sat evening, I jumped online to check out this thread and naturally somebody that lives in my town (Parkersburg WV) posted they had gotten cheap games there. This really irritated me (being told there was no sale). So after traveling back to town Sun evening I ran by before going home. Sure enough, theres the table with the sale going on.

I was looking for F-Zero and Botkai but it looked like the table had been thoroughly searched as there was nothing of interest to me. They did still have Metroid Prime but I already have that game. I checked with the counter to make sure they didn't have a copy behind the shelf but they couldn't find any. The girl was like "I know we had the game yesterday." Yeah, someone told me it was $50 so I passed, I thought as I walked out.

Oh well.

Kings Plaza Mall in Brooklyn, NY has the $9.99 to $19.99 sale. I found absolutely nothing there though. I was looking for Contra: Shattered Soldier and F-Zero GX, but they only had F-Zero. When I brought it up to the counter, they didn't even have the game. :x

Yeah, I went today and saw they had Midtown Madness 3 but they didn't even have it in stock. The girl was looking at NCAA March Madness the whole time even after I told her not that game.

FunkSoulBrother, I just came back from the Kings Plaza mall and they had a bunch of PS2 games on sale, that weren't there when I went last night. I finally got Amplitude. They also had Xenosaga and a bunch of other alright games. I didn't see Contra or F-Zero though. Last night they had alot of Xbox games on sale, but today there were only a few left.

I was at the one in Succasunna/Ledgewood NJ today.

Word I went there Saturday!!

Yo, check the one in Morris Plains (on rt 10 next to Khols) They put NCAA Football 2004 (Xbox) on for $9.99 Im thinking by accident. They might still have some because only the GC games were really selling because of all the moms that were there.

Just got back from KB Toys in Newtown, CT. The place looked untouched. Couldn't find any Gamecube F-zeros. Picked up Boktai and Xenosaga for $9.99 each. Plus Dark Cloud 2 at $19.99.

KB Toys in Stratford, CT was having the $9.99 - $19.99 sale but they were RAIDED.

The KBToys at Southpoint in Durham, NC had some different games the second time I went there; it seems many of the stores are getting new shipments in during the clearance. Between my two trips i picked up:

Brute Force - $9.99
Otogi - $14.99
Arc the Lad - $14.99
Silent Hill 3 - $19.99
Boktai - $9.99

I actually bought a used copy of Boktai for $20 recently, but couldnt help myself when I saw it at the store. If anyone bought an extra NBA Street vol. 2, I'd be willing to trade the unopened Boktai for it.

Went really late tonight to the Aresenal Mall in Watertown MA.
They had a decend selection, though they are idiots. There were no Xenosaga's on the shelf, but he had a few outback.

Ended up with Xenosaga, Boktai and Clock Tower 3.


Thanks for the info!

BTW, Braintree MA (South Shore Plaza) is NOT doing this sale, only the 20% off.

West Covina, CA is having the $10-20 sale.
Puente Hills, CA is 20% off.

Tonight I picked up:

Boktai: $10
MotoGP 2: $20
P.N. 03: $20
Shadow of Destiny: $10

The West Covina store also had Otogi, Dino Crisis 3, Dynasty Warriors 4, D&D Heroes, Dark Cloud 2, Silent Hill 3, Panzer Dragoon Orta. and a few more copies of everything I bought. No Arc the Lad or F-Zero though.

I'm thinking of going back for DC2, and DW4. Can anyone hook me up with F-Zero or Arc? I'm sure I can pick up copies of stuff for trade.

My first cheap ass post! This site rocks!

Anyway, I went to the KB in Reseda CA....and they had no idea anything was supposed to be on sale, but sure enough Boktai GBA rang up as $9.99 and Otogi XBOX rang up as $14.99...awesome. I also picked up Crazy Chase for GBA (9.99) since I used to dig it on SNES.
