[slipkornotpsu]

The World Ends with You just dropped to $29.99 on Amazon. Great game.

[GAMERMASTERMAN]

Might have to pick this up now. I wanted to buy it but just couldn't make myself pay $40 for a DS game, even though it's probably worth that.

[cranguy]

Awesome, thanks OP. It was this price on Amazon before it was OOS for a month.

This has gotten some really excellent reviews. The Associated Press already shortlisted it for best of 2008 (so far) which really surprised me.

[AwRy108]

Worth every friggin' penny--this game hasn't left my DS in months!

[nightmare452]

Thanks a lot, been looking for this game for 30 since it came out.

[placebo1]

Bah, bought it when EBGames got it back in stock 2 weeks or so ago for $40. Still haven't gotten to it.

[masterage]

This was easily worth $40 back on day one...$30 isn't that bad of a price. People that still havn't been able to get a copy, this is the chance :D

[Admiral Ackbar]

As they use to say in the MUD....


OOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOooo....

[TehMuff1nM4n]

Idk, the game is fun. But I am not a fan of controlling a 2 character combat system. :cry:

[El Gray]

Shows up as $40 for me. Am I missing something?

[karkyco]

Yeah, I'm getting it at $40 as well. Should I pull the trigger then email amazon and say it was $30 to get the difference? Definitely want it.

[nightmare452]

That's true, its back to 40. Tough luck man. (I ordered it two hours ago($30), was gonna wait, but glad I didn't and just bought it then)

[UberNinjaz]

Still Handheld GoTY 2008 no matter what the price :)

[helava]

Weirdly, it's back to $30. Just picked it up. Thanks, OP.

[kidrocklive]

Idk, the game is fun. But I am not a fan of controlling a 2 character combat system. :cry:

that's my only complaint on the game, I usually never mess with the top screen at all.

[Caliburn]

Wow, fantastic. Just purchased one, thanks OP.

[Maromi]

Thanks for the head's up! I've been waiting for it to be 10 dollars cheaper. I'm thinking this'll be tough to find brand new in a couple years.

[justme99z]

Thanks for the deal OP!

Been waiting for this game and it has been OoS everywhere recently...

[Poor2More]

I rented this and did not enjoy it, I did not like controling 2 characters at once

[kdunn77]

Thanks! In for one.

[xxtheycallmedxx]

this was actually mentioned last night by Kirin Lemon in the DOTD thread but definitely deserves its own thread.

[gunm]

Not currently $30 for me, though showing in-stock

[TheEyecon]

cool, ty

[UberNinjaz]

To all the people complaining about "controlling 2 characters at once" theres an option right on the menu screen in the bottom-right corner so the CPU kicks in after a certain amount of time or instantly handles everything.

[mberkes]

Bought it for 40 a month ago...kinda wish I held off for this 30 instead. Controlling an asshole teenager isn't my idea of the great game this is touted as, but it's still somewhat fun nonetheless.

[Wlogan31]

Now where is my FFTA2!

[nikkai]

Hmm. Showing 39.99 for me - I snooze I lose. =P

[gunm]

Don't worry, I don't think this deal was up for very long, and might have gone up and down during that time. I'm guessing the game recently came back into stock and Amazon was fiddling 'round with the price.

[justme99z]

It did go up and down a bit over a couple hours...

[SirChadlyOC]

Buy this game. It will disappear from the face of the earth in seven days a few months, and you will regret missing it. This will be the biggest cult hit on the DS since Electroplankton.

Yes, it's hard, but that's half of what makes it so great. If you can't handle it, put it on easy mode until you're better and more experienced. There's actually a difficulty slider so you can adjust it to your own style (which is a common theme throughout the game). Yes, the protagonist is lame, but the overall story and gameplay are worth it.

This is a top 3 DS game for me along with Advance Wars: Dual Strike and Elite Beat Agents.

$24.50 tomorrow used at GS with coupon/edge

2 stores near me show it in stock

[peril]

if i miss one more frackin price drop on this game at amazon, i may punish myself by buying it at full price.

Showing $39.99 for me...

Will this get rare? If not, I may pick it up later. All recent S-E titles are mass printed and they are plentiful to go around...

This one has been known to have a much more limited print run than normal.

Hell, first week it came out, nearly everyone sold out at once and yet the total sales did 'poorly' the first month. In other words, they didn't print nowhere near enough the first time.

There is no word on how big the second shipment (aka, this shipment) is, so I can't give any insight there.

Also, all recent S-E titles have been "Final Fantasy..." or "Chocobo's..." or some other form of a sequel. This is their first original title in many years.

My GameStop has been sold out of this game more days than not. You can try doing a product search on their Web site to find a used one near you to get 20% off $35, but good luck.

[karkyco]

I tracked down a used copy a couple of days ago...complete and mint. With the 20% + 10% bonus it was pure sweetness, $24.50 as mentioned above.
