I know a few have been mentioned already but a lot of them haven't. Here's a summary of the drops I saw this past Monday at Best Buy. A lot of them are universal drops; however it's better to buy at Best Buy because $19.99 games become $14.99 after GGC.

$19.99 each:
Legend of Zelda: 4 Swords (GC)
StarFox Assault (GC)
Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble (GC)
Fire Emblem : Sacred Stones (GBA)
WarioWare: Twisted (GBA)
Mega Man Battle Network 5: Team Protoman (GBA)
Mega Man Zero 4 (GBA)
Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble (DS)
Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team (DS)
Darkwatch (XB)

Feel free to list any of the drops that I missed.

Thanks, I don't have to jump on MMZ 4 now since only one Best Buy has it left.

Wario Ware Twisted is one title not to be missed IMHO, and at that price it's a steal.

How is Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble I didn't even notice it came out so I'm guessing it's not so good.

It's alright if you like the Viewtiful Joe games. It's nothing to write home about though as there are much better platformers on the DS. MMBN 5: DT is a steal at $20.

I think he was asking about the Gamecube game.

Time to sell my still sealed MM Battle Network 5 for GBA I got from K-Mart on Ebay... I can at least get $15, then I'll just GGC and get it for DS.

VJ:RHR is actually pretty fun. Worth $20 imo.

Nightmare Before Christmas didn't drop, did it?

StarFox Assault (GC)
Fire Emblem : Sacred Stones (GBA)
WarioWare: Twisted (GBA)
Mega Man Zero 4 (GBA)
Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble (DS)
Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team (DS)
Darkwatch (XB)

These are the ones I really want especially Fire Emblem/VJDS. Now to just find the money for all of them. Thanks for the list OP. It's really helpful.

You're referring to MMBN4: Red Sun, right? I can't confirm the price because none of the Best Buys I went to this week had it. It would be odd if it was still $30 while the MMBN5 games were $20.

Speaking of the MMBN5 games, I couldn't confirm the price of Team Colonel but would be willing to bet it fell to $20 as Team Protoman did. However, only get those if you do not have a DS as the DS version contains both Colonel and Protoman.

of course.

(as a note, i'm a huge mega man fan, and i liked the battle network series at first. but it's just hard to keep up with those as well as i did with the classic series because of how much longer and more involved they are. the BN games are the type where if you drop it for a month, you have to restart. i think i'm going to just skip to BN5 on DS just to have it on a different system and see how i like all the changes over the last four versions.)

no, i meant Team Colonel by the "red" version, haha...sorry, i got mixed up with all the MMBN games :lol:

i meant to ask if the colonel and protoman ones were both 20 or only protoman

also, DR. Mariokart, your sig is hilarious :D

It's neither a Nintendo nor Capcom game, but I saw Dig Dug DS at Best Buy today for $9.99. I haven't seen that mentioned before, so thought I'd let people know.

I didn't know that Red Hot Rumble was down to $20, I would have picked that up yesterday had BB properly marked its price.

Some Best Buys are notorious for not marking price drops. All the better for us I suppose (everyone else thinks it's $30 or $40 when it's actually $20).

Thanks OP. Even though my local BB has a very crappy DS and GBA sections, I was able to stop at GS, and pick up the last new WarioWare twisted. Happy about that since you can't even buy it new at the gs/eb website anymore.
