$34.99 and some of the games they are taking are pretty old. I dont go to GS but, i think you are over reacting a bit.Seriously... GameStop is just the ing worst. I wonder if you get the awesome 1000 PUR points, that are worth a dollar, with this??
No, no. You dont understand. This is CAG. We expect to pay less than $5 for all new games, we expect to trade them back for full retail, and we expect every company to exist on zero profit.$34.99 and some of the games they are taking are pretty old.

Pokemon Platinum -- 7.5 years old!some of the games they are taking are pretty old.
Xenoblade and Fire Emblem: RD i think were really low print runs so likely why they still hold value. Didn't GS try and sell Xenoblade for like $90 last year? ppl made a big stink about it but defenders were saying, that's the going price on ebay so it seems logical.Pokemon Platinum -- 7.5 years old!
Xenoblade Chronicles -- almost 6 years old!
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn -- over 9 years old!
People made a big stink about the Xeno because GS was the only supplier of new copies and they were likely opening the new copies to jack up the price by $30.Xenoblade and Fire Emblem: RD i think were really low print runs so likely why they still hold value.

I'm surprised Starwars Battlefront isn't on that list, it currently trades for $22 at GS.
I didn't know that and I can totally see them doing that.People made a big stink about the Xeno because GS was the only supplier of new copies and they were likely opening the new copies to jack up the price by $30.
RIP $10 certsOr you could preorder it from Best Buy, use GCU and get it for essentially $38 without having to trade in ANY games.
They are still available for this particular game.RIP $10 certs
Who would trade in a first party Nintendo game which hold their value extremely well for an online only Ubisoft game that'll be discounted within a month or two of release?Yeah, it's not an INCREDIBLE deal but it's hardly the best example of Gamestop being pricks. If I actually owned...I dunno...Captain Toad Treasure Tracker or that piece of shit Deadpool game, this is a decent offer.
I was more banking on them realizing that owning Captain Toad was a mistake.Who would trade in a first party Nintendo game which hold their value extremely well for an online only Ubisoft game that'll be discounted within a month or two of release?
Treasure Tracker has both solid critic and user scores across the Internet. Everyone seems to love it. Why would it be a mistake owning it?I was more banking on them realizing that owning Captain Toad was a mistake.
Maybe because some people look at games not as investments, but as items to be experienced and enjoyed. So why hold onto an older game you've played the hell out already when you can ditch it for an online only Ubisoft game that appeals to you and will be at it's busiest/freshest at launch and not a month or two down the line.Who would trade in a first party Nintendo game which hold their value extremely well for an online only Ubisoft game that'll be discounted within a month or two of release?
Or you can wait and hope Best Buy does a trade up deal like they have the last two years with Madden the week before the new one releases.I guess I can trade in madden 16 now instead of later when it's gonna be worth only 25 cents.
Haha, yeah. THEY're the suckers.Take my copy of Deadpool for what I paid for it suckers
Some people don't have GCU, realize what a deal it is if they purchase more than ~3 games in 2 years, or how much of a crappy deal this is. We're trying to get them more bang for their buck.To trade or not to trade is the decision... it does not require post after post of people bashing the deal posted and or company offering the promotion..
Time to get off you high horses people its only a game and its only a retail location with an offer..
Ultimately its up to the person if they want to go with this its their choice they dont need people supposedly trying to get them the most bang for the buck...Some people don't have GCU, realize what a deal it is if they purchase more than ~3 games in 2 years, or how much of a crappy deal this is.

Yeeeeah. Toad's Treasure Tracker is one of my most fun games to throw in and play for a few minutes. I bought it when it originally released and I've gotten TONS of mileage out of it. I have very limited game time any more, so I choose intentionally when and what I want to play. This game is great and I recommend it to others regularly.I was more banking on them realizing that owning Captain Toad was a mistake.

But they need you, huh?Ultimately its up to the person if they want to go with this its their choice they dont need people supposedly trying to get them the most bang for the buck...
Saying it as in Öh they need me is no different then saying they need you.... People have minds they can use them accordinglyBut they need you, huh?
Because I have definitely seen people on this site post "Oh damn I would've done X differently if I knew about this" or "I wish I would've seen this post earlier and saved an extra X dollars".
You're not giving the community enough credit. It's not every man for himself (usually). This is a site for people to get great deals on video games. And some people are going to call out crap deals to help others get the one worth the most money. In the end they can do w/e they want, but it's about helping the community. If you don't want to be a part of it, then good for you.Saying it as in Öh they need me is no different then saying they need you.... People have minds they can use them accordingly
