Just 2 days after being a DOTD , here it is again for $15.96. Even cheaper than before.

Damn you. I knew it would be cheaper but I thought it would take a few months instead of a few days. I'll have to mull it over.

I ended up deciding against it as well as just moved it to my cart for later. When I added Spellforce Universe to my cart to save for later I got the notification about Namco dropping.

Amazon has gotten crazy lately. I can't be sure anymore whether what I'm buying is a safe bet or not.

With the way games have been dropping lately , that might not be a bad idea.

I got it at 19.99 as a DOTD but it hadn't shipped yet so I cancelled and re-ordered at the new price. Added a KISS DVD for filler to get free S&H. Thanks for posting this and saving me 4 bones!

Complete aside. What does it mean when you see a post that says "Bump"?

It just means they want the thread to be brought back to the top so people see it.

Pretty funny that all my years online, I had no idea "bump" was actually an acronym and I just figured it was meaning for them to "bump up" something.

Interesting. It needs to drop a little more for me to bite. Amazon is sure dicking over a lot of people with their rapid price dropping though.

I'd love to get this, too but I figure I've bought about 25 games in the last 3 months and I need to slow down a bit.

Oh man...this is SOOOO tempting...I didn't download any of these games, so they'd all be new to me. Must resist...

Thanks Star Knight, in for one, gotta be worth a shot at $16.

Fuck it, I bit. I bought Trauma Center II for DS for $15 to get me to $25. Must...stop...buying. Well, I normally don't buy as much shit as I have the past month or so, but these deals are tough to pass up on. Maybe this will go cheaper some day, but certainly not much, if any. I wanted the Pac Man Championship Edition anyway, and that's a $10 download...so $6 for the rest is well worth it IMO.

Although I already own Mr. Driller Online, Pac-Man C.E., and Galaga Legions on XBLA, I bought this disc anyway. I'm sure the other games will make this worth the price tag.

I notice since they got rid of the price guarantee they seem happy to drop prices like a shot.

Makes buying stuff from them a bit of a lottery.

Glad I didn't bite on this when it was $20. Just bought it along with Final Fantasy V Advance ($14.99) to get free shipping. I've been wanting to get the GBA Final Fantasy ports for a while and that's the only one Amazon has in stock at a reasonable price, so I figured I'd go ahead and get it.

Wait, just wondering, when it was DOTD, how much was it?

Awesome - regretted not picking it up when it was a DoD, but bit on this deal as a gift for a friend who has purchased Galaga for every system she has owned the past 10 years. Thanks OP!

Ha! I was kicking myself for not ordering this as the DOTD a few days back for my sister, well now she gets it and it saves me money.

Paired with Orange Box for $31 shipped. Too many games!

Aaaah, I bit at the dotd price of $20 too. But it's still worth $20. Lots of good games, and I only have Pacman CE from the aracde disc.

I was on the edge when it was $20, so this price sold me on it. I think Dig Dug is the only duplicate I have out of that set, and I've been wanting to check out Pac-Man:CE and Mr. Driller for a while now.

Also, according to Wikipedia, the XBLA games just install to your hard drive, which seems like a really cool feature.

Wikipedia lies. I have the game, it absolutely DOES NOT install to your hard drive. You have to go to your Games menu to play the games, and you have to exit out every single time you want to play a different game. It's.... not fun.

Looks like the deal is dead. I'm glad, as that means I'm no longer tempted to buy it.
