damn i cant combine this order with the Baroque wii i just ordered

[eau]

I was planning to get it through the TRU B2G1 DS deal next week. Now this is a better price. Need to find a good filler...

There is a video game lightning deal at 10AM:

Give your vocabulary a challenge, NDS style.
Crossword DS? It would be a nice filler item for me.

[Moxio]

Wow, solid deal.

Probably My Word Coach.

I'll be getting this, just need to find filler like you.

[davyd]

I paid full price for this game at release but I wish I didn't. I really like turn-based strategy RPGs but the combat system in this game is just too different for my tastes.

[backwards_compatible]

Looks like the 10:00 AM PDT - Video Games Deal is New York Times Crosswords. (http://www.zappdeals.com)

Was considering RoS for the B2G1 TRU deal...this is better by a few bucks.

[Codemaster]

What is the better crosswords game? New York Times or CrossworDS?

[SDC]

I'm ALL OVER this friggin' deal. I've been wanting this game for a while!

[neonglow]

I was waiting for this to drop before I picked it up. In for one.

Found a few last gen games under $10 which are a good filler.

[laaj]

What is the better crosswords game? New York Times or CrossworDS?

Depends on how skilled you are at crosswords. NYT one is harder and Nintendo one is easier.

Don't forget about Nightmare of Druaga. Rogue-like RPG for $10

Don't forget about Nightmare of Druaga. Rogue-like RPG for $10

Thanks for reminding me. I was searching for filler, and that's brilliant. I saw a friend play this years ago before I knew what a roguelike was, and it looked terrible...but now that I'm interested in them, I think I'm ready to give it a fair shot.

[Mysterio]

That price works for me, especially for an Atlus game. DS Backlog + 1. :)

[jprev]

AWE

SOME

I have been really wanting to get this game before it went the way of all other Atlus games on the DS (70 bucks on eBay). Looks like there's no better chance than now!

[doodofdoods]

cool, there were 4 atlus games I wanted to get for the DS, I'll pick this one up at Amazon and the other 3 at toysrus with the b2g1 sale.

[ihavenolife123]

has anyone considered space invaders extreme as a good filler?

[Flikman24]

Hm, Atlus games back to back on the deal of the day. Lets hope the trend continues :)

[botticus]

Forwarded the deal along to my friend who was planning on getting this soon.

Hard ass game, and I actually managed to get stuck a few levels from the end. :-( Still a fun game up until then, quite a few hours were thrown at it.

Very innovative take on the SRPG genre, you thought you were strategic in Fire Emblem, you haven't seen anything yet.

Lots of unlockable characters, though to my point above, if you don't unlock some of the key ones, you'll be in for a tough time later on.

[natureboy46]

What is the better crosswords game? New York Times or CrossworDS?

Imo, the NY Times is better (although far more difficult) but CrossworDS does have the addition of Word Find. They can be fun just for a change of pace.

The other thing to remember is that you'll most likely never get through all the puzzles (at least in the NY Times version) so if you go with that you'll probably never need another crossword game.

Oh, and the NYT has some pretty good local multi-play (one cart)

lol, WOW thanks, that sure justifies the purchase.

Actually this is my FILLER for my Space invaders extreme
$33 with atlus $5 coupon, im happy.
I can wait for A2 when it comes down in price :(

All reasons I won't be picking it up...visited this thread to keep up my resolve :D

[addicted2games]

I got Rondo of Swords and Patapon (PSP) for $26.98 shipped. Patapon was in my gold box and I had the $10 Amazon gift certificate from the Ninja Gaiden II preorder. Not bad. :)

[Masterkyo]

Finally picked up Rondo of Swords and Persona 3 Fes both for $38.89 with $5 off coupon & free shipping. :)

you like teh eazy games? :?:

[Mysterio]

Which three Atlus games are you going to get at TRU's B2G1 sale?

[doodofdoods]

Etrian Odyssey II
Summon Night Twin Age
Drone Tactics

[Wolfpup]

you like teh eazy games? :?:

I don't know if I'd consider them "easy", but I consider it a game design flaw if you have to start over more than every great once in a while. I'm also kind of picky about strategy(tactics)/RPGs. Love Vandal Hearts 1, Shining Force 2, Dragon Force, the 'Cube Fire Emblem, Tactics Ogre, and a handful of others, but HATE most others.

[Masterkyo]

Still need to buy this atlus games! Drone Tactics, Draglade, an Summon Night: Twin Age, Etrian Odyssey 2.

[slidecage]

Still need to buy this atlus games! Drone Tactics, Draglade, an Summon Night: Twin Age, Etrian Odyssey 2.

Summon Night: Twin Age too short game... too easy game.. never got a game over and beat the game in 15 hours ... its a fun game but way too easy/short

[punkmaggit]

Atlus = win

Thanks OP!

[62t]

Summon Night: Twin Age too short game... too easy game.. never got a game over and beat the game in 15 hours ... its a fun game but way too easy/short

blame it on Atlus usa, for some reason they decide to make the USA version a lot easier.

[guinaevere]

I don't know. I'm leaning towards Crash of Titans, Thrillville, Vanguard or Burnout Bominator. Any suggestions on those?Thrillville is not like RCT if you're hoping it is. Not horrible, but it really depends on what you want from that game.

[koster]

Thanks OP! I saw a few possible filler items to throw in with Rondo of Swords:

:gba: Rebelstar Tactical Command - $11.81

:ds: Elements Of Destruction - $9.45

:ds: Warhammer 40k: Squad Command - $9.45

What the heck - I threw in all three. :lol:

[lbradeen]

Finally found something great to put the $5 atlus code towards.

[xxtheycallmedxx]

picked up Rondo along with a umd case and ds game case ($5 each)...bringing my total to $27.xx,$30.03 shipped after stupid new york tax.....

[racerman8]

This game was in my gold box, so I got it a little cheap. I'm happy with it. :)

[super_nerd]

I bought one, added in Sly Cooper 2 (9.99)!

[karkyco]

Sweet deal, 2 Atlus games in a row for DotD...hope the trend continues.

I threw in SNK Greatest Hits for $13.

[groundskeeper]

I finally had to get this game. Picked it up with Soldier of Fortune Payback for Xbox 360 which was down to $14.18 today.

[Googer]

Thanks OP, grabbed this & NYT Crosswords (the current lightning deal) for $27.98 total. :D

[Wanderlai]

Grabbed one. I love me some Atlus SRPG.

[emg28]

Nice deal on RoS. Now to find a filler.


*edit* picked up RoS with World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks ($10.17). :D Was always interested in that book.

[Omnislash124]

Seriously, why is it that this always happens to me? I bought Rondo of Swords off of Amazon just a week ago. At the old price of $28.99 ($23.99 with the Atlus deal)

Somebody really hates me.

Try calling customer service. Amazon does price matching within 30 days. Of course, you're still out the $5 Atlus coupon but atleast you can get $6 back.

[j.elles]

Glad I got Summon Night Twin age with my atlus coupon instead of this. Great pick up at this price.

Especially since the only complaint seems to be this game is to hard. Definetly not a problem for me.

[punkmaggit]

I threw in Gunpey (psp) for $9.45, which essentially was $4.xx after the free super saver shipping (FTW!! ;)) Love me some puzzle games.

[jacknicklson]

Atlus coupon was a promotional discount. You should get the $11 back meaning you only paid $13 for the game.

[doodofdoods]

they probably won't let him price match since he used the coupon. at least others have had that problem with matching after using a coupon.

[Alien Spider]

QFT. :(

The "promotion" screwed me out of $3. Well, $13 if you consider $5 Atlus coupon, $5 lost on Metal Saga, and $3 lost on Arcana Heart. >_< Never going to use an Amazon coupon again!

...unless it's way more than $5.

[slidecage]

anyone elses shipping date nuts..

Est shipping July 3

man i miss prime

[BillyDKid]

I just picked it up when it went to 19.99. It's got a very different way of playing and it's taking me awhile to wrap my head around it and forget a lot of what I've learned from other games. Really enjoying it.

[Archon29]

I'm going to have to bite on this. Is there any way to get an Atlus coupon at this point in time?

[lbradeen]

I think they might've run out of stock before your order. Mine's set to be delivered on tuesday (prime 2day).

[NDPsycho]

Sweet deal, 2 Atlus games in a row for DotD...hope the trend continues.

I threw in SNK Greatest Hits for $13.


Heh, I used the same game as my filler for free shipping. Nice choice :)

[drgnasdt]

back to $17.99....

[Alien Spider]

I ordered a couple minutes before my first post, RoS and Warhammer 40k: Squad Command which is $9.45 right now, not too bad a price since I'm a huge Dawn of War fan. :)

My shipping estimate is June 25.

[ryauda2006]

cool.

[GoddessTio]

I'm in! Picked it up with the Baroque deal. Thanks OP!

[eau]

I'm finally in. Ordered Rondo of Swords and Crash of Titans, both DotD :D

[sixteenvolt420]

picked up rondo and snk vs capcom card fighters.

[slidecage]

anyone know if you can still combine 2 different orders to ship at once

if i placed an order thursday and hasnt shipped and place one today and i combine these

[62t]

anyone know if you can still combine 2 different orders to ship at once

i dont think you can as it is a special promotion. I tried to combin something with my order and it wont let me.

[eau]

I believe you couldn't combine orders online if they're using super saver shipping. You will have to have a CSR combine it for you via email or phone.

Also, you can't combine orders online or offline if they all have some promotion coupon applied to them, since promo coupon is limited to 1 per order.

[j.elles]

If there from two different stores, the more buying options area, availible on Amazon then you can't combine orders. I ordered this with Tabula Rasa Collectors edition and I had to trouble combining orders for super saver shipping.
