Well played, Best Buy. Well played.

if you're willing to spend about $20 for gravity rush or uncharted why not get the 3 month PS plus for $18? you get both and can beat them within 3 months.

Dude, just sign up for playstation plus and you get Uncharted and Gravity Rush. $50 for the whole year and then you will continue to get free games monthly!

no different than the red "clearance" tags at walmart on stuff that is regular price

I'm sure this is just a glitch. Best Buy has never put full price stuff in a sale link before that I'm aware of.

The difference is that this is Best Buy and when they send out an email saying "these items are on sale," they are on sale.

I'm hoping they discount these a bit yet today. I'd jump on one or two of them for even $5 - $10 off.

It's not just about being able to play the games. My PlayStation Plus subscription is good through December 2016 but I'm still interested in picking up Uncharted and Gravity Rush. Memory card space, the ability to resell/trade-in/lend/give-away the games, having a packaged retail product to own/collect/display... The list goes on. Some people will never let go of physical games. I'm one of them.

Gotta love the quote at the top of the SALE screen:


"Choose from hundreds of items at discounted prices."





Uhmmm, actually not, but we made you look!

Anybody bring up this sale on their official forum?

Yeah that has been my experience, it just that if the prices don't go live like the rest it takes them awhile to update them. If it was gamestop I wouldn't had started this thread cause they are known to advertise MSRP as sales.

I just made a post on the BB forum. Might take awhile to get a response though.

Yeah same here, I really want Smart As... for my vita, and I'm sitting on tons of gift cards and rz points.

Where did you post it? I made on in the bestbuy.com section. Let's see if we can get some prices down everybody!

Gaming support section.

Likewise, although I think I'm going to just cave and snag it before it goes off digital sale (currently $20 on the PS Store I think).

wow and I thought nothing could top Amazon Gold Box disappointment, BB has proven me wrong

I just had an exchange of messages over Twitter with someone from Best Buy customer service. Here's the conversation:

---

Me (@BlueSwim): @BestBuy What is going on with your PS Vita games sale?They are clearly listed as being a part of the New Years sale, yet are not discounted

Best Buy (@BestBuySupport): @BlueSwim Which games are you referring to specifically? Do you have a link so I can take a look at what your seeing? ^Kevin

Me: @BestBuySupport Sure. From this page, I click on "video games": [New Years Sale & Clearance Link Here] It takes me to here: [Video Game Category Link Here]

Me: @BestBuySupport The video games section lists 25 items on sale, ten of the PS Vita games, but said Vita games have no discount whatsoever.

Me: @BestBuySupport Other items have their sale prices listed, but for some reason the Vita games are the same prices they have been for a while

Best Buy: @BlueSwim I apologize if there was any miscommunication on our sale and I will be forwarding this information to our business teams. ^Kevin

Me: @BestBuySupport Thanks, Kevin!

Hopefully, this issue will be resolved shortly.

Incorrect. Their last quarter was profitable. Their gaming division hasn't been profitable in about that much time though, but Sony will still be around as its many different branches offset each other.
And the Vita certainly isn't helping their bottom line, as much as I love mine.

Lol, there should be a #vitaMSRPsale hashtag. I had no luck in store with these vita games.
