Grabbed a 4gb 360 and the zelda 3dsxl bundle for 250

Think i made out well. Promised myself in buying these I'd wait a year for a next gen console. We'll see how that goes  :lol:

 
how did you get the controller for that price? I thought it was $34.99
It was priced at $34.99 on Amazon, but originally it had a price of $15. I just took a screen shot and asked CS if they would honor the original price, and they agreed. I really didn't mind either way, but I figured it was worth a shot, and they seemed more than willing.

 
My Haul:

Zelda Bundle $150
Tales of Xillia CE $20
Kingdom Hearts CE $20
The Last of Us $25
Puppeteer $20
Year of PS+ $30

I'm really surprised that my local Gamestop still had limited edition copies of Tales and Kingdom Hearts, was a nice extra bonus. Best Black Friday ever, so happy with everything I was able to get.
 
Game Haul

It's not much of a haul for me. It was more Dvd/Blu Ray oriented this year. Thinking about picking up Skyrim Legendary Edition though. Figured I could pick up the rest for cheap later. 

Pre Black Friday

:ps3: Grand Theft Auto V $33.99 (Best Buy)

Black Friday

:ps3: Ni No Kuni $15 (Gamestop)

:ps3: Tales of Xilia LE $20 (Gamestop)

I went to Wal-Mart to pick up sly cooper, hitman, for $10 but they weren't ringing up at that sale price? I was under the impression the sale was ongoing starting Thursday through the weekend?
 
Anyone have experience with Target coupons like the 20% I got today? Says it excludes "all video games" and the PS4 and Xbox One consoles. Since those were the only consoles specifically mentioned, will it work on a Wii U? Or is it YMMV?

 
My Haul (prices include 6% sales tax where applicable):

3DS:

Red 3DS XL $150

Black 3DS XL $150

Zelda 3DS XL bundle $159

New Super Mario Bros 2 $25

Mario Kart 7 $28

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team $30

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon $25

Wii/Wii U:

Mario/Luigi Wii U bundle $265

Super Mario 3D World $50

Pikmin 3 $50

Nintendo Land $13

Xenoblade $36

Black Wii U Pro controller $24

Wavebird controller w/ receiver $25

Mayflash Gamecube controller adapter for Wii U $15

PS3:

Twisted Metal $10

PSN+ 12-month card ($30 x2) $60

Xbox 360:

Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7 $10

Lego Lord of The Rings $10

Misc.:

Sandisk Class 10 16GB microSD cards ($10 x3) $30

Kinivo 3-port high speed HDMI switch $30

If my math is correct, that comes out to $1195. Ow, my poor bank account. I'll either sell or gift one of the extra 3DS XLs. I contemplated getting Beyond: Two Souls and The Last of Us for PS3, but I figure they'll be available cheaper than $25 this time next year. It's not like I'd ever get to them before then anyway - not with my current backlog...

Well crap, now I have to go to BBY and hope they have both still and if they do then go back there next week to return the copy that already shipped.

 
I got Saints row the fourth and a ten dollar nintendo eshop card. not a huge haul, but with shopkick gift cards, I only paid 33 cents out of pocket.
 
Can anyone point me to some good deals for Wii U games? I can't seem to find any (except for TRU B1G140%Off, but their games are overpriced).

Looking for Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101, WarioWare, Super Luigi U, Nintendo Land...

I really wanted to get Pacific Rim. And watch it to my hearts content :lol:

 
Well, I had a successful Black Friday run. Unless something pops up on Amazon, I am done. Here's my haul (since I know you are all interested) ;-)

Kohls.com:

Video Game Chair

Griddle

Waffle Maker

Plus got $15 in Kohl's cash to spend in the future

Target.com:

World War Z Bluray

Staples.com:

Toshiba laptop

Walmart.com:

Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time PS3

Fast Five bluray

Act of Valor DVD (bluray didn't appear to be on sale like ad said)

The Dark Knight Rises bluray

I needed to spend like $9 more to get free shipping, or else pay $6.97 for shipping, so I ended up also getting:

Crazy, Stupid, Love DVD

The Fast & Furious DVD

2 Fast 2 Furious DVD

The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift DVD

Fast & Furious DVD

Gamestop.com

1 year Playstation Plus card

Amazon.com:

Killzone Mercenary Vita

Stone Sour - The House of Gold & Bones Part 2 mp3 album

Black Sabbath - 13 mp3 album

Walmart (B&M store):

The Walking Dead S2 DVD

The Walking Dead S3 DVD

WWE Hell in a Cell '13 DVD (not on sale, but I was at the ppv live, so I bought the DVD)

And that's about it. The only reason I went to Walmart is because me and my girlfriend were bored last night. I could have passed on the Walking Dead for now, but since I was there and wanted them, I grabbed them. So everything pretty much was done online, which was nice and painless! I got everything I wanted too, except the Target 3-month Live cards, but I usually get 12 months for cheaper than $40 anyway, so I don't care about missing those. I hope you all did good this year also!
I ended up going to another Walmart and had them price match their own ad to pick up Act of Valor on bluray for $3.96. I assume it was an ad error since it was ringing up $12.96 and their website did not have a sale on it either. I will return the DVD version I bought on their site. So now I got everything I wanted...

 
Grabbed a white kinect for my new 360 i grabbed at walmart last night. Had like 40 black ones and the white kinda stood out nicely. Was only 20 at gamestop, but now I'm kinda regretting it. 

Worth it if i don't play any motion games?

Can't set it up where I'm at so not sure how it works yet. 

 
I really wanted to get Pacific Rim. And watch it to my hearts content :lol:
I watched it earlier too and it was awesome. It was a little cheezy sometimes. But in its context it worked well. It was like a live action Japanese mech anime mixed with American action movie.

Warioware will be on the amazon lightning deal in a few hours. Scribblenauts Unmasked is $25 at newegg. You didn't ask for it but scribblenauts is a great series. If newegg would have posted that crap earlier, I would have skipped Walmart the other day...

 
i watched it earlier and it was soooooooo good, it looked amazing on my sony 3d display i got last bf. it was like godzilla mixed with this old mech movie called robot jocks but pacific rim has much better writing :D
I've seen Robot Jocks and I get what you mean. And I love it, even if many thought it was mediocre. I'll gladly watch it again and again. Haha.

I watched it earlier too and it was awesome. It was a little cheezy sometimes. But in its context it worked well. It was like a live action Japanese mech anime mixed with American action movie.
Yeah, it was cheezy, and the World Leaders are unbelievably stupid. But still great nonetheless.

 
eBay - I still see a few available around that price.

Also eBay...but I don't see it available for that price anymore. The cheapest I see now is $17.
Thanks for the reply. So you bought it from a random seller? I'll keep an eye on eBay.

Didn't know WarioWare was gonna be a Lightning Deal, thanks for letting me know! Also, I already bought Scribblenauts Unmasked from Newegg earlier today (thanks to CAG), great deal, indeed.

I really, really wanted Wonderful 101 and Pikmin 3, though. Pikmin used to be $50 on Amazon, now it's back to $60. They're both $60 on TRU. I was hoping to get each one for $40, tops.

Are the Walmart in-store BF prices dead now???

I went to Walmart this afternoon to pick up some leftover games that were tossed aside.  I went to purchase Ratchet & Clank Collection ($10) and Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time ($10).  However, both rang up full price ($19.96 each) as of 5:55pm EST.  I asked the cashier why the Black Friday prices weren't ringing up, and she said the Black Friday sale ended at 2:00pm today.  I don't see anything in the Ad about a 2:00pm friday end time, and don't see any postings about it on forums or internet sites about a 2:00pm end time.  What is up with that?  Has anyone else experienced this?

Ehhh, it's a mixed bag if you're buying it for the sake of using it merely for Netflix and Hulu or whatever. By that I mean the voice control's aren't bad, you just have the fiddle with volume around enough and I got it to the point where I can quietly say thing's and it'll hear and do what I ask. Though it isn't without some problems, I remember watching the XBox press conferences on it and it basically going berserk. Using your arms though to go through features though just feels like it takes more time and effort as opposed to just turning on a controller and doing it. I Mean it works great for fast forwarding and rewinding since you just drag to where you want to be, but for making selections you're better off using your voice or a controller.

 
As a precaution, when you receive it make sure it's not a fake.

http://wiiudaily.com/2013/06/beware-of-fake-wii-u-pro-controllers-on-amazon/
Hrm. I checked the product ID vs. the one shown on Amazon and it was sold by a U.S. based eBay seller, but now I'm wary. The one I looked at on Amazon could've been fake, or they could've easily copied the little details like that if the one on eBay is counterfeit. Oh well, I guess I'll find out when it arrives. Thanks for the link.

 
I suspect this is only available at the Florida Mall Best Buy in Orlando, but they had signs up indicating all game guides were $5 on Friday (today) only. I grabbed a bunch of hardcovers, and the only one they wouldn't let me buy was the Tomb Raider Collector's Guide, because it had apparently pennied out (I don't keep track of that sort of thing). The prices needed an override, but the cashier was happy to sell them.

I asked if this deal was available at other locations, but they didn't know.
 
4PM done!

Overall I did pretty good, I scaled back spending heavily compared to last year. I trimmed down my original wants, like the PS3 with TLOU and BAO bundle, Battlefield 4, COD Black Ops II, COD Ghosts, GTA V, Man of Steel, any printer, etc. I also skipped going to K-Mart and GameStop.

This year was ok, not as great as last year, but still doable.

WM early BF video game sale is always a win. I'm very surprised we CAGs squeaked by another year for back to back epic scoring, I wonder if they will crack us down next year? :whee: Only thing knocking them down a bit is their weak selection of $10 games.

Target was disappointing in video games for me. Selection sucked, but I will give them a pass for their weekly clearance deals they have lately.

Best Buy was dismal.

Toys R Us was nothing important unless you wanted to get XB1 and PS4 games on sale. I was also surprised the DOTM Jetwing Optimus Prime sold out, early reports suggested heavy stock at all stores.

I also hit up Kohls again after missing last year, and man the checkouts lines were freaking long! It was 3:30PM and it was stretched all over the building!

Are the Walmart in-store BF prices dead now???

I went to Walmart this afternoon to pick up some leftover games that were tossed aside. I went to purchase Ratchet & Clank Collection ($10) and Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time ($10). However, both rang up full price ($19.96 each) as of 5:55pm EST. I asked the cashier why the Black Friday prices weren't ringing up, and she said the Black Friday sale ended at 2:00pm today. I don't see anything in the Ad about a 2:00pm friday end time, and don't see any postings about it on forums or internet sites about a 2:00pm end time. What is up with that? Has anyone else experienced this?
weird i never saw anything about the sales ending at a specific time. wow walmart messed up big time here
 
My Haul (prices include 6% sales tax where applicable):

Zelda 3DS XL bundle $159
New Super Mario Bros 2 $25
Mario Kart 7 $28

Super Mario 3D World $50
Pikmin 3 $50
Nintendo Land $13
Xenoblade $36
Black Wii U Pro controller $24
Wavebird controller w/ receiver $25

Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7 $10
Lego Lord of The Rings $10

Misc.:

If my math is correct, that comes out to $1195. Ow, my poor bank account. I'll either sell or gift one of the extra 3DS XLs. I contemplated getting Beyond: Two Souls and The Last of Us for PS3, but I figure they'll be available cheaper than $25 this time next year. It's not like I'd ever get to them before then anyway - not with my current backlog...
Where did you get luigi mansion for $25. Thx
 
Hrm. I checked the product ID vs. the one shown on Amazon and it was sold by a U.S. based eBay seller, but now I'm wary. The one I looked at on Amazon could've been fake, or they could've easily copied the little details like that if the one on eBay is counterfeit. Oh well, I guess I'll find out when it arrives. Thanks for the link.
I bought mine from Amazon (sold and shipped by) and it has a misspelled word on the back label: "recieved". I did some research and apparently even people who got it straight from Nintendo also have labels with the incorrect spelling. Can anyone with a Wii U Pro Controller confirm this?

It was a fortunate/lucky pricing error at my local Kmart.

Everything I purchased was Amazon, Target, Kmart, Walmart, Best Buy, Gamestop, and eBay (only 2 items, 1 of which I'm now concerned is counterfeit). I got a lot of Amazon lightning deals, and I price matched a few stores' ads against others.

Eff that.

That game will be like $9.99 in a couple months
You deterred 2 people from the purchase. I had it on the list with s bunch of other games at gamestop last. Night (ignored that list completely when I bought an extra ps4) but ice been thinking about splintercell today still.
 
No prob.

You looking for a game for any specific system?

Edit: Lol sorry neonon. I mean if you guys really want it, go for it. The Splinter Cell games ALWAYS plummet after they're released though. I wouldn't doubt if you could pick up a copy from Ebay or Gamefly for $8.99 or so.

But there's some games I just can't wait on. Like Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen. It was $19.99 on Amazon's lightning deals and I thought it wasn't enough of a drop from $21.xx. So I decided to wait again after waiting months for it to hit $15. Then I caved and scooped it up at the $21 price tag. I just couldn't wait any longer......that and I had a little help from Jack Daniels.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but Beyond 2 Souls is $34.99 on Amazon right now. If anyone got in on the trade $30 and receive $20 off Beyond 2 Souls, it can be had right now for $14.99.
 
Thanks to whoever it was that pointed out the B1G1 on Drive and Moneyball. Makes for two extra trips to BBY (one to buy the movies and a second one to return the copy I ordered off the website) but a free BR was worth it. Then I bought a fourth year of PS+ (for a total of five unredeemed years), J. Edgar, Horton Hears a Who, and A Fistful of Dollars. Maybe that trip was a bad idea as a whole. :whee:

i watched it earlier and it was soooooooo good, it looked amazing on my sony 3d display i got last bf. it was like godzilla mixed with this old mech movie called robot jocks but pacific rim has much better writing :D
You guys are talking me into keeping the $6 copy I ordered on Amazon last night.

I got enough to play, I can wait on splinter cell if they normally drop like that.
