Saving 10 on two GBA games is nive. My BB's are out of advance wars and golden sun. Now I can still grab them for $15 a piece without the GGC.

I'm pretty sure they don't sell pre-played PC games on their website.

The buy-one-get-one on older games is nice, just wish I had known it was coming the other night when I picked up RC Pro-Am. Ah well, might be time to grab that original Final Fantasy now. ;)

Exactly...I didn't even like the first Golden Sun and I'm still thinking of picking up the sequel, just to see how it ends. :D

Yoshi's Island is also tempting, though...I've never played it through, and I'd love to do it someday.

I might just have to do that $10 mail-in voucher for Counter-Strike. I'm getting Xbox Live Friday so I'll want some more games to play on it.

I was thinking about getting ToCA Race Driver 2 for the Xbox, and the $10 gift voucher seems like more incentive to get it. But I've been burned by EB on the gift voucher thing before. I was supposed to have recieved a $20 gift voucher from Super Mario Sunshine back in July. Did everything they said, even damaged the back of the game's insert to get the UPC code to them. Got NOTHING. So I don't know if I would want to take a chance with them again to get another voucher or not. Guess it couldn't hurt, since the price of the game is the same as everywhere else.

I used that to get 4 snes games, mortal combat 3, xmen mutant something, art of fighting, and super gameboy.

Just remember to make copies of everything you send them and call them up to make sure they ever got it. I've had this happen before and as long as I can provide a copy for proof, they'll still honor the deal.

Beware of the $10 vouchers. Unless you get a free shipping deal, you lose minimum $2 getting your game shipped and minimum $2 getting your voucher item shipped.

So they are really only worth $6, and that's if you take the crappy shipping. The $5 off at Best Buy is better.

How fast do the vouchers from the website come in? Just curious with the Battlefield Vietnam with $20 voucher. How long does it take to arrive?

Does anyone know if the keyboard is wireless? It doesn't say, so I don't think it is ...

So is this online or in store?...And I was wondering...I can buy a two dollar game and get the N64 for 10$ and then return the 2$ game? Would this be possible? I could make a steal on ebay with this!

The keyboard (which I am using right now! :D ) isn't wireless, but it kicks ass. Also, the deal is online and in-store (make sure you pick up the coupon book though for the coupon). Go pick up the keyboard now, it's awesome.

I picked up TOCA at my local EB yesterday. Awesome racing title. The mail-in voucher I have mentions nothing of the UPC code. It just wants the original sales receipt along with the rebate form. This title is well worth the $29.99. A steal at $19.99 after the rebate.

Agreed! Except the $19.99 part, you are still paying $29.99, but it is 10 bux off your next purchase :)

Toca is a great game, I am having alot of fun with it. I hear it is awesome on Live, I need to get a free sub :)

I've got a question about the Four Swords trade in deal and the EB trade in deals in general. It says 5 select GC games. Does that mean any games other than specifically excluded ones, like the sports games, ultra crap, etc. I don't supposed there's an online list?

Also wondering if the games are excluded if they were previously owned from another store before you got them....if they have sticker glue marks, etc. are they excluded? Probably silly questions but I rarely trade in games.....

the zelda deal when I looked at it a week back was 5 any non-sport titles, i don't think POX included. Don't hold me to that though

I wish the EB stores over here (Portland, OR) still sold SNES games. Oh well, at least there are still a lot of other places that sell SNES here.
