holy shaq-fu!

Awesome deal for people into horror games if you haven't played it already. Makes me sad that it would hit the $9.99 mark though, which is especially odd since the first Fatal Frame always seemed to go for $30+ even today.

I wonder if it was accidently mis-marked down to $9.99...

That's a shaq-fuing deal!! Too bad I didn't like the game, but I do give it merit for its aesthetics and its story; I just hated the gameplay. Me no likey FP.....

Confirmed!

I called the Harrisburg PA store and although they're sold out, it's only $9.99! Heh, I might just drive to Baltimore for this if they have it.

I'd imagine that they are no longer carrying the game since it does not show up at bestbuy.com so the individual stores might be clearancing them.

-Never4ever-
04-19-2004, 04:49 PM
just called my local BB, and they said they don't sell it anymore, so yeah its on clearence.

EDIT: If anyone could help me out and pick me up a copy it'll be appreciated. I'd also be willing to trade it for damn near anything on my trade list.

I found a single copy when I stopped into a Best Buy on a whim while I was running an errand. Saw it, slight interest, so I picked it up...and wouldn't you know I was about to come on here and report it but I guess y'all beat me to it. For anyone in KC, this was the Olathe BB...they might have one or two at the one in Overland Park.

Also picked up X2: Wolverine's Revenge for 10 on PS2.

argh. i hate nyc. ive never seen any games marked below msrp at the two best buys near me. those being the one on bay parkway and the one near the si mall. has anyone ever gotten deals at these? also can anyone else confirm that batman price? that would be freakin sweet.

04-19-2004, 05:42 PM
Well, I went to the Best Buy closest to me (So. Setauket, Long Island) and they didn't have any copies. I came home and called a bunch of other Best Buys (Patchogue, Bay Shore, Commack, and Huntington Station) and they all said they didn't have any copies. One guy told checked his computer and told me that there is only store out here that has it and that is the Riverhead store for $49.99.

I had also stopped into Gamestop to check out if there were any decent-priced used games I wanted. They had a used copy of Fatal Frame 2 for $44.99. And I didn't see any other games that I wanted.

It was a crappy day for video games for me.

If anyone does manage to pick up several copies, I'm interested in one too...please?

CaseyRyback
04-19-2004, 05:42 PM
sorry for the double post, but I do remember a store on the way back to my parents that has copies. Does anyone know what time BB stays open till on weekdays as I could try and get them on Thursday

those drops are not YMMV though. They are official drops in price. Batman and Rogue Ops were the last copies, but they were not YMMV as they did not have the stickers they usually do and they had official BB signs with the prices on them

metroidkiller9, I used to live in Bensonhurst (a few years ago, before moving out to Long Island). :)

Anyway, don't feel bad, the Best Buy in Manhattan and the ones out here VERY RARELY have any kind of good deal. They used to be my favorite store, but not anymore.

RBM
04-19-2004, 05:57 PM
King of Prussia, PA store shows 2 in the system, but I couldn't find either. Either customers were walking around in the store with them in hand or the sales staff had squirreled them away for purchase as their shift ended. D'oh.

04-19-2004, 06:10 PM
I simultaneously love & hate you guys. Just swung by my Best Buy and snagged their one & only copy. This is an insane deal, because afaik there wasn't a huge press run of this game made in the first place. It's already disappearing from EB & Gamestops around here.

Since this is on clearence at BB, any chance that it could be on clearence at other stores too? I haven't seen it at BB in a while, but have seen it at Walmart within the last week. It was marked $45.95 (which obviously doesn't mean anything).

Just went to the Best Buy in Cedar Park, and of course they didn't have any Fatal Frame 2, but they did have some other games that were cheap but not on clearance.

Haven - $4.99 (about 10 copies)
Drakan: The Ancient Gates - $9.99 (about 10 copies also)
Ico - $14.99 (several copies)

Just got back from Chicago North Ave Best Buy...

No Fatal Frame's left...no penny guides left...

Did pick up last copy of Arc the Lad PS2 for $9.99 and Unreal II XBox with GGC for 14.99.

So not a complete waste.

04-19-2004, 10:13 PM
my best buy had like 8 copies left 2 days ago when i bought it for 49.99...im going to call today and ask if they still have them and if the price changed...if so...i should be able to get them to give me back the difference means it was within 7 days, right?....

by the way...anybody seen this Fatal Frames movie thats on bestbuy.com....im sure it has nothing to do with the game...but interesting none the less

04-19-2004, 11:35 PM
Thanks, got the last copy of Fatal Frame 2 (PS2) and Batman: Sin-Tzu (Xbox). The shelf tag for FF2 still had $49.99 on it. Glad I knew better, thanks to CAG. Sin-Tzu finally hit a price point where it is worth a try.

04-20-2004, 12:06 AM
trustcompany1013 - I believe it's a 30 day price match gurantee so hopefully you kept your receipt. If they price match it w/ 110% that means you got the game at about $6 :D

If there is some left do you think you could pick me up a copy. I would be willing to throw in some cash or a game too.

I am going to check tomorrow for fatal frame 2 and arc the lad. Is Arc the Lad really 10 bucks? Also if the tags says $49.99, its probably because they didn't update the price right? So I should actually bring it up to have it checked?

FYI for everyone in the NYC area - I just went to the BB in Chelsea and although they didn't have FF2, they looked in the computer and the only BB in the area that had a copy was in Secaucus, NJ. And only one copy at that.

No, but I was just checking since BB was clearencing it out, I thought maybe Walmart was too and just wasn't labled that way. It was a shot in the dark, but worth a shot. No dice though.

Also, when you call your Best Buys, be sure to ask for the Media department, because customer service doesn't seem to be able to actually check the inventory.

Also, as a reminder, count me among those who would be overjoyed if someone finds this and is willing to pass along an extra copy (at cost plus shipping and a little extra for your trouble) to help a CAG out. :D

Yeah...I actually jumped into my car upon first seeing this thread and disrupted my ordinarily sedentary lifestyle only to find no copies at my local BestBuy. So I hate this deal too!! It hath caused me to rend my garment! ...well...well, not really. And truth be known, I have mixed feelings about this title, because I'm a big chicken and have no business tackling such a scary series. *sigh* These bargains have nigh well unhinged me, man.

For what it's worth: The clerk I spoke with today (at the Ft. Lauderdale store) told me his computer showed over 300 copies in their warehouse, but none in any of the area stores. After I told him that the game does not show up on bestbuy.com either, he said it's likely they'll be stocking them in the FL stores throughout the week.

:( I checked the NJ GSP store again they seemed to have gotten other games instock except of course Fatal Frame 2, it's still listed at 49.99.

I did pick up Voodoo Vince and Outlaw Volley Ball.

I checked the Fashion Plaza Best buy and that too had nothing. Actually they didn't have one game onthe clearance list.

There was 3 in my local store so I bought them all, 1 for myself, 1 for my friend, and one for eBay to pay for my copy & the extra so I come out with a free game!

They had 7 Dark Cloud 2's and I was gonna buy em all to trade/sell/ etc. but they only let me get 3 so I'm doing the same with it. 1 for me, 1 for friend, 1 for eBay. Maybe I'll go get the rest at a later date.

GPS Paramus BB

OK since I REALLY wanted this game I decided to just out right ask when and if they're getting anymore in and the clerk said that they had a bunch that weren't selling then the price dropped they flew off the selves, people keep coming in asking for it. Alos they MAY get one last shipment in if they do it'll probally be only 6, no word on when. I assumed they might be since they're is still shelf space for FF2.

a piece of advice. If you are only going for one thing have them check it in the computer and then check other local locations so you dont have to mass travel for just one thing. Hopefully that will help someone.

Also my BB didnt have it in stock so when I was at Walmart I asked if they would match it and they said is it in the ad ? I said no but I know the shelf tag is 9.99. She said ok i'll call. She calls they switch upcs and she verifies and gets a manager to overide it for me. I think I just got very lucky but hey might be a good try for someone. 48.84 for 9.99.

Now thats C A G ¡!

Tried the same thing. The employee look at the 49.99 price tag and gave me a look like "no best buy doesnt sell it at this price". I went to a different one and tried to do that with Dynasty Tactics 2 and they called only for the stupid Best Buy employee to say "I don't know what it sells for." Arrgg.

Wasabi, we have too much competition in our area. Not only from CAG, but Paramus gets a buttload of people from other states for all their shopping needs. No sales tax on clothing and a pretty low sales tax (6%) doesn't help either. Its like we are the Cheap Ass Shopping area of the world. I never find any worthwhile deals at the GSP Best Buy. Ever try the Best Buy in the Fashion center on 17 north? By Toys'R'Us and Applebee's. I know last time I checked they didn't have it, but they may now.

I tried to do that at my Walmart. They told me they would only price match advertised sales. I even had a receipt showing what I wa slooking for was $10, and they wouldn't use that as proof either. :?

I know what you mean I stop by the GSP for luch a lot since I work really close and there are days when it's busier then X-mas time. Theoddiest thing was a few class trips to the mall?!

I checked the Fashion centerone and they didn't have anything cheap. I made one last stop on my way home from work and they took down the tab for FF2 so I guess that was a no when the guy said the MAY get one last shipment in.

I was thinking about swingin by either Secacus or the one by Willowbrook, but is GSP was out of it no way in hell Secacus would have it, and it's too late to make itwillowbrook now.

When BB, Target, or CC clearances a game, it means they will no longer be stocking it.

Essentially, it sat on the shelves too long and they want to make room for the next "hit" title. If u look around, there are plenty of copies about, but I imagine, like the first one, it will be increasingly harder to find.

BTW - FF2 was just announced for XBox today, complete with a new first person mode. More Tecmo love for MS.

Wow, thanks for posting this news. Frustrated in trying to find myself a PS2 copy of FF2 cheap, I finally broke down and used some of my store credit at GameCrazy to buy a new copy at full price. I absolutely hate paying full price for games, especially older ones. Now I can return this game today and wait for the beefed-up XBox version. Great news. Thanks again donssword. :)

I was lucky enough to snag the last copy here in Mobile, I did however ask about them getting any more in stock (as well as Dark Cloud 2) and the salesman told me they would be getting some in and to check in on tuesday... if they do i will pick up some for this forum (for trades, I dont really care about doubling my money) :lol:

I'm actually going to buy this if I see it, but keep it sealed in hopes for credit towards the XBox version. The XBox version is supposed to have a few extras, and I already have the first one on XBox which supposively semi-rare. Too bad I can't the same for SIlent Hill 3, man that series is gonna look wierd in my collection. SH1 PSOne, SH2 XBox, SH3 PS2, SH4 XBox, SH5 PS3? :P

Attention all Delaware CAGs! As of 1pm today, the Kirkwood Hwy (Wilmington) Best Buy still had two copies of Fatal Frame 2 on the shelves. The Concord Pike store had none though (I picked up the last one there).

It appears that just about ALL of the Best Buys across the country got a shipment of 2 copies over the last week. You just have to make sure you get there right after they put them out.

drone8888, I'm about a half hour away from that store and with the price of gas these days I don't think I'll be heading in that direction again for several days. I'll keep it in mind next time I go by it but I assume it will sell out by tomorrow.

I assume the Dover store doesn't have any in stock? If you don't see any on the shelves ask them to check the computer system to see if any are "on hand." My friend was able to find some in Florida this way because they had them sitting in the back.

Yes I know that, but the casual gamer probably has no idea about it. They probably say "WTF? Why wasn't SH3 on the XBox? Did they just skip to four or something?". I honestly didn't know about SH3 relating to SH1 till I read about it over a month ago. Either way if I have the choice I'm going to support the XBox when I have the chance.

Back on topic, no FF2 copies at my best buy as of four days ago, but I'll check again to see if my store got the rumored copies and then i'll post results.
