Here's the entertainment software listings from the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Houston (HOU), Chicago (IL), Los Angeles/Orange County (LA), San Jose/Silicon Valley (SJ), and Washington state (WA) Fry's Ad(s). These prices are valid only for the dates listed in the subject line.

The items listed below are as they appear in the Fry's Ads. If an item is listed as "SJ only", for example, it could still be on sale at other locations (i.e. - Austin, Sacramento, San Diego, AZ, GA, IN, NV, OR), but it only appeared in the SJ ad. However, since these ads are not available online, I cannot confirm them.

If anyone knows of a website to view any further ads, please let me know.

Unless otherwise indicated, items below are listed in all six (DFW, HOU, IL, LA, SJ, and WA) ads.

Ad updates:

Metroid Prime Hunters w/ Rumble Pack


MP: Hunters doesn't include a rumble pack, right? They must have got it confused with Metroid Pinball.

Nope. It includes a rumble pack that plugs into the GBA slot. Here's the image from that part of the ad.

Metroid prime is on "sale" at MSRP? What's up with that? I'm really tired of this false advertising.

It's advertised because it's bundled with the rumble pack. It's like getting the $20 rumble pack for free when you buy the game.

I already have that rumble pack from metroid pinball. Yeah your right, the copy of hunters i have i dont think came with any rumble pack.

The problem with the Metroid Prime Hunters ad is that the list price of the Rumble Pak is only $9.99 and not $19.99.

If one doesn't have the Rumble Pak, I suppose it is an okay deal.

Very little love lately for DS games from Fry's, but Fry's has always been higher priced for the portable game systems.

I bought Guid Wars Factions for $49.99 with free City of Villains, and I was able to get the Collector's Edition of City of Villains. I'm going to sell it to offset the cost of Guild Wars, hopefully I can get 25-30 bucks for it .

You guys do know that just because something is in their ad doesn't mean it's on sale right? Therefore it can't be considered false advertisement? The point of an ad is to showcase what they got, not necessarily what is on sale.

That said, no love for Lost Magic or Brain Age once again.

I'm in the same boat as you...I was surprised that fry's is giving away the collector's edition of city of villains, but oh well (probably a mistake on their part). Anyways, my copy of City of Villains is already on ebay. :)

That's the cheapest so far. Too bad the nearest Fry's is like 70 miles away. The trip itself would cost more gas than the saving.

I bought Metriod Prime Hunters (w/o rumble) for $24.99 at the Sunnyvale Fry's. It scanned at $34.99 but they adjusted it to match the shelf label. I have the rumble pack from the pinball game already.

Nope, it's $34.99 there. Maybe they feel they can do that with the XBox version, since it's not being sold at EB, Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, or GameStop to the best of my knowledge. I know here in Indy the ONLY place I could find the XBox version was Fry's. The PS2 and PSP versions you can get just about anyplace...very strange.
