B2G1 Free on the following DS titles

SWEET!

[nnthomas]

That B2G1 list isn't that bad

[poopy]

That B2G1 list isn't that bad
It's a good list, but I only need Peach from the titles offered. :( Thanks for posting, sp00ge, definately some good deals there.

[cochesecochese]

That B2G1 list is pretty decent. Time to pick up Pokemon Trozei and Super Peach.

[turls]

Wow, lot of Nintendo stuff there, nice for a change.

[spooie_redux]

Sweetness.

I might get Metroid Pinball and Super Princess Peach... but what else should I get as the freebee? Already own MK_DS.

[Masterkyo]

Perfect timming for Pricematch with BB and spend my GC . Possible getting Super Princess Peach FREE ;)

Mario Kart DS
Pokemon Trozei
Super Princess Peach
True Swing Golf
Trace Memory

[DrunkTigerWoods]

damn, I might have to jump on that B2G1 DS games.

[jasonditz]

"OK deals?" Nanostray for $12.50 is a steal. I'm all over that.

[dafunkk12]

Oh holy crap, I've gotta get in on that DS B2G1F deal. I only need Peach and Pokemon, though. Hmm...what's got good resale value on eBay...

[Roufuss]

Ugh... that buy 2 get 1 free would be decent if I didn't already own almost all of those games, and I have no interest in True Swing Golf =/

[viewtiful7]

I'd be all over that B2G1 free deal if they had one more game I wanted and didn't already have.

... and who the heck would want a PSP for a Spongebob game (or is it a movie)?

[BigHow]

Any other Los Angeles CAGers out there who want to split this deal with me? I'm only looking to get Super Princess Peach and if we get three games that cost $34.99, the total (after tax) will come out to $25.25 per game.

If anyone's interested, shoot me a PM.

[abhinav]

B2G1 free is pretty sweet there:

Pokemon Trozei
Super Princess Peach
True Swing Golf

[cochesecochese]

Sweetness.

I might get Metroid Pinball and Super Princess Peach... but what else should I get as the freebee? Already own MK_DS.

Pokemon Trozei. It's actually really good.

[Admiral Ackbar]

I wonder if we coulde buy three and say, return 1 or 2. that worked for the B2G1 during the fall.

[paintballers]

Nothing for me

[Roufuss]

I wonder if we coulde buy three and say, return 1 or 2. that worked for the B2G1 during the fall.

It worked for some CAG's, but I got turned down big time... they say "I had to return all three if I wanted to make a return, since the deal is Buy 2 Get 1 free, and not Buy 1 get 1 Free or Return 2 get 1 free.".

Though... it would be awesome if you could return 1, thereby making it buy 1 get 1...wouldn't mind Super Princess Peach and Pokemon Trozei.

[blandstalker]

I'd like to add that Bust a Move DS is really, really good. Even if you're sick of the game and its endless iterations, being able to use the stylus is fun and makes it feel completely new. Unexpectedly, it's one of my favorite DS games.

[spiderdog]

2 for $25
Nanostray and??
Which other game is any good?

[Roufuss]

2 for $25
Nanostray and??
Which other game is any good?

Bust A Move

[rlse9]

I'd be all over Bust A Move if I was interested in any of the other games that are 2 for $25.

[addicted2games]

Looks like I'll get Metroid Pinball, Pokemon Trozei, and Super Princess Peach for DS. Cant believe I am getting a Pokemon game. First for me....

[Crocodile]

Damn! Damn! Damn! I really want Pokemon Torezei and Super Princess Peach looks decent but there's no third game I want. If only Meteos and/or Kirby Canvas Curse was also included.

[spiderdog]

Bust A Move

It is!
Nanostry and Bust

Thanks Roufuss

[jecclr]

That B2G1 list isn't that bad


Demi?

Damn, is there a site you're NOT a member of?

[Ikohn4ever]

anyone interested in goin in on this deal, preferably in the langhorne/philly area

[iamchul]

is there anyway to get the prices pmed to bb?

[Roufuss]

is there anyway to get the prices pmed to bb?

I never thought of that, PM'ing to BB / CC... I may very well try it, since I hate dealing with TRU.

[trunks982]

i already bought the 2 for 25 deal when they had it for 2 for 30. that time i picked bust a move and nanostray. for the B2G1 free deal... i have most of them. i do want super princess peach.

[lurknomore]

This sounds great. My DS library is getting ridiculous. I would have never guessed that I would buy 3 DS games for 1 every other system. Anyhow, this deal can be sweetened with the $10 off of $50 coupon TRU has mailed to some of us.

[Roufuss]

Someone should put up a scan.

[BigHow]

Someone should put up a scan.

I second that! A scan would be tremendous.

[happyone]

Looking to get Peach. Anybody in Columbus, OH interested in a copy for $25 (price x 2 and then divided by 3). Let me know.

[Stingslider83]

Hopefully there be a scan.

Metroid pinball
Mario Kart
Animal Crossing

all for 50 bucks would be great.

[Roufuss]

Does anyone know if the sale lets you get multiples of the same game?

I might get Super Princess Peach and two Pokemon Trozei's, and just Ebay one of the Trozei's to help with the total cost of it all.

Sadly, after doing some digging, I can't find out anything about a $10 off of $50 coupon.

[sp00ge]

It doesn't say anything about not allowing multiples of a single title, and personally, I wouldn't think it would be an issue.

[lurknomore]

I wish that I still had my coupon....but this was something that TRU sent out to customers in the mail. They mailed out a flyer that said to go to a specific TRU, and it was clear in this...and it said to give this coupon for "bonus coupons" to the customer service desk...and you got a sheet full of generic coupons for use only at that particular TRU. No fooling. Anyhow, these were given when their big Baby Sale began...as we used them for baby stuff. There were 3 maybe 4 coupons on the sheet. Some of you may want to ask at your customer service desks. I have 4 TRUs around me, and only one of them had coupons at the time and would accept them to boot.

[psunami]

I might pick up Pokemon and Peach for my wife and maybe Trace Memory....

[PR Mega X]

Mario Kart DS
Super Mario 64
Metroid Pinball
Pokemon Trozei
Super Princess Peach

This is really tempting...tough to narrow it down though. What do DS games usually run at TRU? $25? $30? I might bite if it's 3 games for $50, not so sure I can go for it at $60...

[bbruzzes]

The B2G1F DS game deal is worth going over the border for. Most of those games sell for $45-50 Canadian, which after tax works to about $155-172 Canadian or about $133-150 US for 3 games.

[Roufuss]

Mario Kart DS
Super Mario 64
Metroid Pinball
Pokemon Trozei
Super Princess Peach

$34.99, unfortunately.

[Sleepkyng]

goddamnit...

[PR Mega X]

goddamnit...

My thoughts exactly >.< That pretty much kills it for me.

[spree4567]

Super Princess Peach, Pokemon Tropezi, Metroid Prime Pinball, or True Swing Golf.

I want all 4 but can only get 3 with the deal and I already have the majority of the other games on the list so I can't do the deal twice, so which 3 are the best? Also planning to possibly get Nanostray and Bust-a-Move, and definitely getting Metroid Prime Hunters and Tetris DS in 2 weeks or so since my birthday is in 2 weeks which works out nicely.

My collection btw:
Advance Wars
Age of Empires
Castlevania
Feel the Magic
Kirby
Animal Crossing
Mario Kart
Mario & Luigi
WarioWare
Yoshi
Trauma Center
Phoenix Wright
Nintendogs
Polarium
Meteos
Tony Hawk
Sonic
Snood 2
Super Monkey Ball
Super Mario 64
Viewtiful Joe

Thanks

[BustaUppa]

Oh damn! Some good deals in there. Lately I've been checking the EB Morning updates for Bust-A-Move, so I'm feeling that 2 for $25 deal! The only other game I was vaguely interested in was Nanostray, but I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be any good... since it's getting some love in here, though, I think I might go for it.

My better judgment says to hold off on the B2G1, but I might have to go for it. I've been intrigued by Trozei and Animal Crossing... so I guess it would be a toss up between Princess Peach and True Swing golf for the freebie. Any recommendations either way?

[jimmycanuck]

Dumb question from your friends north of the border - what's TRU? Do they have a website?

(I'm on the border, and I'd definitely be willing to dodge gunfire in Niagara Falls NY if I can get in on these sweet deals!)

TRU = Toys R US

[poopy]

Get Peach, Pinball, and Trozei. True Swing Golf is a boring dud of a game, IMO.

Nice collection, btw, but Snood 2 seems oddly out of place. Hehe.
Super Princess Peach, Pokemon Tropezi, Metroid Prime Pinball, or True Swing Golf.

Avoid going to the Niagara Falls -Summit Park Mall location because it's closing down and won't honour the deal. There's one in Amherst on Niagara Falls Blvd near the Boulevard Mall.

Thanks for the advice

Yea Snood is a bit out of place, but I was at Best Buy on Black Friday and I couldn't pass it up for only $10. I enjoy Snood so.

[jimmycanuck]

Awesome! Thanks for the info - I'll be making my way to the Amherst store early next week. On a side note - does anyone know if there is still anything worthwhile at the Niagara Falls location (with the big store closing clearance?) As long as I'm crossing the border, I'm thinking about hitting both stores.

[Felder71]

Thanks for the advice

Yea Snood is a bit out of place, but I was at Best Buy on Black Friday and I couldn't pass it up for only $10. I enjoy Snood so.

You've got to get Bust-A-Move for the DS then. Best incarnation of the serious so far and miles above the Snood ripoff.

[chickenhawk]

I wish there was another good title in the 2 for $25 deal. I really want Nanostray.

[DomLando]

I want to get Trozei and Peach but I dont know of a third game. The only other one I dont have is Trace Memory. How is that?

[Roufuss]

Not worth full price, and not even worth getting for free, espically since Target has it for $14.98. You could do alot better... it's a weird game to throw on this sale, and I think TRU is using it to get rid of it.

Hell, just get a second Peach or Trozei and sell it on here or Ebay.

[hiccupleftovers]

Gotta look through this thread a bit, but Im definintely going to get in on the B2G1 deal. I already own most of those, but probably True Swing Golf and Super Princess Peach and something else maybe Pokemon, but I really wish the list was a tad bigger since I own most of those from using the $10 off magic BB coupon.

B2G1 Free on the following DS titles*:
Mario Kart DS
Animal Crossing:WW
Super Mario 64
Metroid Pinball
Pokemon Trozei
Super Princess Peach
True Swing Golf
Trace Memory

[vanillafire1000]

I could pick up Nanostray and Bust-a-Move. I need a few new DS games anyway.

[amusedtoe]

Darn, if only Partners in Time was on the B2G1 list I'd return one of my orders from the Cheapy Awards sale. Ah who am I kidding I'll probably cave and pick up Peach, Animal Crossing, and maybe Trozei I guess since it's a little more logical to get the new game then like Mario.

Super Princess Peach, Pokemon Tropezi, Metroid Prime Pinball, or True Swing Golf.

I want all 4 but can only get 3 with the deal and I already have the majority of the other games on the list so I can't do the deal twice, so which 3 are the best?

Well if you really can't decide you could always order MP Pinball off Newegg for $23 shipped and pick up the others here. If both games you pay for are $35 that works out to be about $25 a game with tax anyway.

[unforeseen]

I never thought of that, PM'ing to BB / CC... I may very well try it, since I hate dealing with TRU.


Good luck with that one.

[botticus]

Good luck with that one.
It can certainly be done... I did it with their $19.99 or under B2G1F last year.

[Roufuss]

Good luck with that one.

I'm just Ebaying the extra game I get, not even going to deal with a PM anymore.

I should still break even, or very close to it.

[Masterkyo]

I never had problem Pricematch with BB and CC :)

[MightySlacker]

Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, Metroid Pinball, Nanostray, Bust a Move for 100 bucks? Awesomeness.

Dave

[mbartholow]

Does anyone know if it's possible to grab 3 DS games on the current deal with the intent of exchanging one of them when Tetris and Metroid come out? I can understand the 'No Return' policy so no one is stealing their money, but even exhange on a game that just isn't out? Thoughts?

[amusedtoe]

Hmm, not sure since I've never tried that unless it was a case of getting something free for one system to swap it for the other that they were out of. Even though it makes perfect sense to us I'd think only stores with very apathetic clerks would go for this since an exchange, especially on things like games, is usually on allowed for the same product. That's my best guess.

I tried this with the buy 2 get 1 free deal on regular console games in October, and TRU made a HUGE deal out of it. I really don't know why, but they made my life a living hell over it.

Its very possible they will do it, but personally, I would never take the chance again.

Get gift receipts?

[amusedtoe]

See I've always wondered how they handle that. Do they take the reciept, scan it and say "Oh sorry but your friend, family memeber, or casual aquaintence is a giant cheapass. You see this was part of a buy 2 get 1 free deal and so we can't give you anything back for this or a different game. If you want you can give us the game and we'll punch you in the face."

[Ecofreak]

Get gift receipts?

Ingenious...

[Roufuss]

Get gift receipts?

Didn't work for me, they still asked if I could bring up the original receipt. I wondered if it was because the gift receipt still lets them know how the game was bought?

[botticus]

Didn't work for me, they still asked if I could bring up the original receipt. I wondered if it was because the gift receipt still lets them know how the game was bought?
It probably does, but still.... if you received it as a gift, you wouldn't have the original receipt, and would expect to be able to exchange it for something of equal value or credit.

[amusedtoe]

You mean you wouldn't return a game for a great big punch in the face?

[Roufuss]

It probably does, but still.... if you received it as a gift, you wouldn't have the original receipt, and would expect to be able to exchange it for something of equal value or credit.

Yea, they threw that in my face too... since it was a $40 dollar game, I had to exchange it for EXACTLY a $40 dollar game... I couldn't even get a $50 one and pay the difference, which seemed absoulutely stupid to me.

[sren9]

Guys, the reason why TRU gives you a hard time is simple. The b2g1f for tomorrow is being being paid for by Nintendo. Nintendo is taking the loss on these games. When you try to exchange the game for something else TRU takes the hit. If you look at most retailer ads the games that are on sale are mostly published by the same company. Retailers are not stupid. They are not eating the cost.....One last thing, starting in June TRU will no longer do any returns without a receipt.

[amusedtoe]

It's just a shame Hunters isn't out for another two weeks so someone can try it. Still, will probably grab Trozei as my third game since I can keep it if I have to, but get gift reciepts and give it a go at the end of the month.

Thanks for the deals. Too bad the games aren't that great in the Buy 2 for $25 and I'm only interested in 1 of the games in the buy 2 get 1 free.

[Red Hedgehog]

I just stopped into my local TRU. There was no signage at all about this sale. But I grabbbed Nanostray and Bust-A-Move and they rang up for $25.65 including tax.

[amusedtoe]

Well grabbed my three games earlier and here's an annoyance for ya, they refused to give me a gift reciept because of the nature of the sale. :P Still, even if I can sell Trozei for $15 or $20 on Ebay I'm not too bad off I guess.

[icarwngs55]

Don't know if this was mentioned in here because I did not have time to read the whole thread BUT...

$15 or $20? Trozei goes for at least $30.

They didn't give me gift receipts either.

See this was my thought as well. I went today and bought 2 Peach's and metroid Pinball. The receipt showed that I bought 2 Peach games at 34.99 and Pinball was free. So if I return 1 Peach, I should be able to exchange it for another $35 game, right? I don't seek to rip off TRU and get extra freeness, just games I don't already own. Although that viewpoint is slightly different after considering the "Nintendo sponsors the sale to clear stock" theory.

Anyone else trying the same?

[DomLando]

I went to my local TRU today. Everything was signed. I picked up Trozei, Peach and Mario Kart. Since i already have mario kart i will be exchanging it at a local EB since they will do it for me. Thanks OP probably would of never seen this because I rarely look through the TRU ad in the paper.

[amusedtoe]

See in real person logic that would work, in store logic it's doubtful at best in my experience. As far as they're concerned that's really only a technicality to them and will give you what you payed for the cheapest game, which in this case is nothing, if they offer you anything at all. Ah well, just going to use what I get from Trozei for Hunters.

are you sure about this?The tru near my home still have tons of green tag games and Time Square still have tons of Conkers,Fatal Frame and Golden Sun Lost Agelast time I went there

[Celsius]

I picked up 3 copies of Super Princess Peach yesterday at the TRU in van nuys, CA. thanks for posting the deal! Me and my friends each got a copy and split the total cost 3 ways.

[sp00ge]

are you sure about this?The tru near my home still have tons of green tag games and Time Square still have tons of Conkers,Fatal Frame and Golden Sun Lost Agelast time I went there

Either you haven't been to that TRU in some time or they're messing it up big time. Several months ago, ALL games that were green-tagged were to be removed and priced at a flat $9.98.

So, pretty much, the green tag sale no longer applies to games. Accessories, however, are still potential green tag items. If you can even find anything good. My TRU only has a few NGC starter kits, and a few PS2 2-speaker systems. More or less crap.

And yes, I can confirm that green tag is going to 90% this thursday. I managed to find several bikes in our store that got lost in the stockroom that are GT's. Needless to say, coming this thursday, I'm getting 2 26" bikes for ~$20. One was originally $135, the other $70. Just in time for warm weather. :D

Either you haven't been to that TRU in some time or they're messing it up big time. Several months ago, ALL games that were green-tagged were to be removed and priced at a flat $9.98.

Oh sweet, yesterdy my mom was all like "hey I got this in the mail, can you use this?" and she handed me that $10 off coupon. So now I'm just wondering, has anyone had problems using that coupon with this sale? It has the usual "cannot be combined with other offers" clause, but I'm assuming that would only rule out other coupons and that an advertised sale should be fine.

I could use the $5 coupon last time I got Nanostray and Bust-a-Move with the 2/$30.

I went to BB yesterday and they pricematched. My local BB no longer do FREE Item again instead mark it down $10 - $15 down for each items.

Super Princess Peach $35 -13 = $22
Mario Kart $35 - 12 = $23
Animal Crossing $35 - $10 = $25


I already had animal Crossing ... i may return/exchange it for Pokemon Puzzle.

[amusedtoe]

Well I don't know about TRU but like BB usually won't take coupons or like the BB bucks from McDonalds or things like that towards a sale item unless you don't want the sale price and want it taken off the regular price.

[4tygames]

Here was my plan. I wanted Nanostray and I didn't care about the other games. I would of sold Bust a move on ebay or on CAG if it was there. When I got there, one Nanostray was left and TRU had tons of copies of the other games with no Bust a Move.

I looked around for parents buying their kids DS games. I tried 3 times and no kid was interested in Monster Trucks or ATV Racing. So, I bought Nanostray and Texas Hold'em and will go back on Sunday when the sale is over and return Texas Hold'em for $12.50 unless someone on here desperately needs it. So $12.50 with $3 shipping for a brand new Texas Hold'em DS. Any takers?





No, thats what I thought.

My Toys R Us was out of Princess Peach. So while I saved $70-ish dollars by not buying the new DS games, I still kinda wish I could've gotten in on the deal. I'll just tell myself it wasn't a terribly good deal and wait for some individual sale prices instead.

I did pick up a Nanostray & Bust A Move combo, though.

Already have done the 2 for $25 on Bust a Move and Nanostray when they were 2 for $30 last year, but did the B2G1 today on Princess Peach, Trace Memory, and Pokemon and thought it was a great deal Thanks OP. Wish there were a couple other different games (other than what I didn't take since I already have them) because I really wanted True Swing Golf also.

You should Return or Exchange Trace Memory cuz it drop down $20 ish. Highly Recommanded exchange Metroid Prime: Hunters (its coming soon next week) ;)

Wait a second, say that again. I too got Super Princess Peach and Pokemon Trozei and Trace Memory (because I have the rest on the list), but would much rather have Metroid Prime Hunters. How do you go about exchanging them?

I got really lucky, and did this no problem. I had originally bought two Pokemon Trozei's, with Peach as the free game. I tried to ebay one of the Trozei's, it didn't sell, so I decided to exchange it at TRU this afternoon.

Took my receipt, told her I wanted to exchange it and get a different DS game, she told me to go pick one out and come back. I got Metroid Prime: Hunters, took it back, the lady rung it all up and did the exchange.

I think it helped that Pokemon Trozei wasn't the free one, as well. It was a very easy process, took about 5 minutes tops.

[Fire]

I am so gonna try that this week.

[depascal22]

It doesn't even matter if a game is the free game when it comes to TRU. Before Christmas, I picked up BIA:EIB as my free game and when Battlefront came out, I took it back to be exchanged. The customer service agent didn't even care that it was the free game on the receipt(thanks to the green tag glitch), the promotion was no longer valid, or that the game she just got for me was the first one out of the box. At first, I was worried that she was checking with a manager but then I find out that they were still sorting out the boxes in the back and she had to go find it. It felt really good to walk out of the store with a free copy of Battlefront II

[hiccupleftovers]

Yes, definitely trying to exchange Trace Memory. Nothing against it, just would rather have MP:H since it doesn't look like Fry's has a deal so far.
