Before you say anything about these being posted again, I wanted to have a thread that has all of the promotions in one place instead of them scattered throughout the forum. I posted prior deals last year for Gamestop/EB and just opened the new marketing kit today for this. All of the following deals start 3/26 and will end on 4/15. There is a possibility that I missed something from the marketing kit. If so, please PM me and post the deal in the thread for others. I will update the OP according to the details of the deal that you give me.

[EDGE/Gamestop Card owners] - You will get the bonus 10% on all trades of games/accessories/DVDs. It will NOT work with systems. It will stack with all trade in promos unless otherwise noted.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Updated OP

.......that sucks,it's two PS2 Sony controllers...

Also the period ends 4/15.

All Playstation One and N64 games are also 75% off if your store still has any

Oh if it ends on 4/15 then this is GREAT!

Looks like a free Super Paper Mario for me

Is the 75% off thing for PS1/N64 games nationwide or YMMV? I'm skeptical because I've heard of a lot of deals for old games at EB/GS (B1G1, 50% off, etc.) but I've never seen them at any of the stores around here.

Question.. how come the EB/GS website under the Trade In Value section it says Trade in 3 Xbox360 games for extra $10..and here it says 2?

Because the deal doesn't change until tomorrow (the 26th). You'll notice the asterisk points out that Trade 3 get $10 expires on the 25th.

Wow, if my store gets the 75% off N64 games it would be fantastic. They randomly have a bunch of sealed copies of a few older games and I've just wanted some sealed N64 games to have for collecting purposes, but could never bring myself to spend $4.99 on them. $1.25 or so sounds more like it.

so where I can I get 2 wii games for <$40 (otherwise I might as well just go to BB)

heh, i got 2 wii games at target for a total of $35 (ant bully and poker) and went to the ebgames near there and they tried to deny me the deal (2 for 1) saying it ending this morning , of course the signs were still there clearly on the shelf so i called corporate and they called the store and told them to do it...idiots

for some reason though they couldnt do it the proper way and had to do it manually

To ps3 or not to ps3?

Ahh, the power of actually reading the headline clearly lol
Thanks

Anyway to get that bonus, then transfer the pre-order to another game?

Also would like to know this. If it's nationwide, does anyone know when it started?

Ditto the question about transferring credit - can you put down a pre-order, then just use the credit for something else?

ALSO, does anybody know what GS gives for FFXI on 360? I got denied trying to trade in two Tony Hawk's together to get the +$10 ("we can't take 2 of the same game"). FFXI is the only other game I have to trade. Checked Wiki - didn't find FFXI even on there and most Wiki prices appear to be outdated...

Starts Monday 3/26, and it should be nationwide, but YMMV in the case that your store still has any Playstation one or N64 games.

yes you can use the credit for something else, however I recommend going to another location if planning on doing this relatively shortly after trade.
I actually traded games in and put credit towards crackdown, when I picked it up and paid rest in cash, I then decided didn't want and when I took it back to another gamestop I recieved all cash back!
