Ok I won't buy it. Looking at the box again, there is a portion with film that showcases the amiibo. That's eventually going to turn into a hole.

Meanwhile, there's another Wii bundle that comes with two free games for $20 extra.

And if the Best Buy ad for next week is accurate, I could get Mario Maker there and save $20 on another Mario game.

There's a Nintendo refurbished deal on Groupon for $199 right now.

edit - or $190 I guess with a coupon code.

Thanks but it's either new or nothing for me when it comes to consoles.

here's hoping that $20 works on everything. :beer:
It only works on Smash Bros, Mario Kart 8, or Splatoon. That's perfect because

a) I can get Smash or Kart with the console at Walmart and the other Mario game at Best Buy

b) I can use my $20 Best Buy gift card to pay off the balance.

c) It gives me the chance to attempt "CAG Math".

I know how it's supposed to work. I'm hoping for a glitch.

If you want a Wii U, I'd check out Amazon Warehouse Deals. I got a Skylanders bundle for $170 that was marked as (Like New) and it was in fact brand new. Everything came sealed. It might take a little leg work to find one on there cheap but if you follow the thread in the deals forum they pop up all the time...even the other deluxe bundles for cheap.

The Skylanders bundle also came with Nintendoland. It's and 8GB model but you can easily add storage. I opted for one of these 64GB cruzer fits. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FJRS6QY/ref=twister_B00JO6RO8C?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Works well.

I don't really play my Wii U so glad I got it pretty cheap.

 
Did you see any other Vita clearance games? I got a copy yesterday, but it and all the rest of the vita stuff wasn't where they normally have the video game clearance stuff, it was on the other side of the toy section.

If you (or anyone else) want one and can't find it, brickseek says Columbia has 5 of them and I head down there pretty often.
Thanks man, I'll definitely let you know.

I was at the White Marsh one, and they had 5 copies of of TWAU on a clearance end cap, that was about it as far as Vita titles. I'll take another look around the toy section tomorrow to see if maybe they're just way out of place there too.

I'm going to check my Target tomorrow, but I'm not expecting to find one. I'll let you guys know what I do see, if anything. If I can't find a MGS HD I definitely wouldn't mind you grabbing one at yours. One of the Vita compilations I never grabbed for my collection.
 
[quote name="mpaullin" post="12899994" timestamp="1441231009"]You guys... MGS5... seriously. So good.[/quote]

Would it be if you've never played any MGS (or MG) games before?
 
How far in are you? Hoping to play a few missions tonight myself.
I played a solid 8 or 9 hours today (and some last night) and it says I'm at like 6% completion. Just finished the 7th mission. I've been doing all the side ops that pop up, but i don't know if I'll stick with that approach the whole time (seems like there's a ton of them). The game is massive.

Umm, probably? There's much less emphasis on the story this time around. You have ground zeros from plus, right? That will give you a sense of the gameplay. It doesn't get across just how open/awesome Phantom Pain is. Your constantly collecting people/resources to expand your base and unlock better equipment. It's an addictive system.
 
I sent a group message to everyone on my friends list not from this thread about Foul Play. Spreading the word better than Sony.
Crazy how little Sony and the dev/publisher are talking about this. My guess is that they want it to fly as under the radar as possible, so they can sell the game for full price later. Really weird.

 
A few more clearance finds at Target:

Vita:

Gravity Rush 207-20-0039 2.24

Reality Fighters 207-20-0042 2.24

Clothes (half off)

Cargo Shorts 042-15-0090/042-15-0909 11.48

Sport Sketchers Sneakers 098-08-0132 17.48 size 10.5 but the other sizes were also on clearance

I found some Vita clearanced games at one Target near the mobile phone section, away from the rest of them, in a little plastic shelf that hangs off the side of the endcaps.  I had just about given up finding Ninja Gaiden but there it was.

Infinity 3.0 plat done.  I capped off the last feat right at the end of the Twilight of the Republic play set which was fairly decent although a bit short.  Now time to focus on MGS and Mad Max...

 
Did anyone watch Metalocalypse on Adult Swim?  This animation studio released an unofficial video for Mermaider yesterday and it's fucking awesome.  Ariel, Spongebob, a Big Daddy and others as bad guys torturing Aquaman, and Batman & Co. has to come rescue him.

Meh. No luck on getting fury road for $10 off with my game pick up. Manager said I would have to forfeit my preorder cert for it and rebuy it. Dick. Also, they didnt have the strelbook even though the website said the store had it in stock and ready for pick up today. They couldnt find them.
 
Well fuck.

Mad max is fucking broke. Has to do with a story mission so I'll spoiler to not make anyone mad.

on the wasteland classic mission you have to do a few steps and the last one is installing these bars to give you a special car called the jack. I cant install the fucking bars. Apparently its glitched, thread for it on playstation forums which a few others having the same problem.

http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-General/Stuck-on-Mad-Max-mission-Wasteland-Classic/td-p/45349975/page/3

This thread explains it too, anyone here playing Mad Max get the same glitch?

So far the best suggstion is to start over. fuck that, already played quit a bit, if cant get it fixed soon this shit is getting traded back in and I will NEVER purchase another Avalanche game ever.

I could never get into Metalocalypse, but that was awesome. Loved all the subtle references.

 
Ooh I got into the PS4 update beta too. I wonder if it means we'll test future updates too. That's how it is on XB1 and sometimes we get free game beta codes or other perks.

I just made last minute plans to go to San Diego this weekend. We're leaving super early Saturday morning (4 or 5am) and spending the weekend on the beach. My friend's going away party is Friday night so the plan is to party all night and stay up then pass out in the car and sleep the entire way there. It's about a 6 hour drive. That should be fun!

I would grab Ape Escape and 3rd Birthday.

 
Started TLOU:R. Looks great and is crazy smooth. It has my expectations high for Uncharted Collection at 60fps, because it feels really good here. I wonder if they'll include the 30fps mode in UC for the random fools who want to play it that way for the "cinematic experience" or whatever bullshit argument that is.

Not too far in. Just met Ellie and stopping for the night. Content seems good so far, though, and that's just on easy while I do all the collectibles and such. Looking forward to the harder-mode playthrough to see how much that changes things.

 
Selling my MGS V Collectors for 140 minus the Blu bonus disc. That makes my import steelbook free (CAGmath) and I get to keep the bonus disc to put in it with money left over. Woo. Plus I got a second CE DLC code by accident so I can redeem it myself. Have off tomorrow so its going to be a good day.

Mad Max's load times are garbage. PS2-era garbage.
Wow, you guys are making me want to just get rid of my copy so I have less other-gaming standing in the way of Phantom Pain.

I was planning on returning the CE that Amazon sent me, but I wonder how much I could get for it if I kept just the bonus disc and sold everything else. Unfortunately I already redeemed the DLC code that Amazon sent me.

Did you list your CE on eBay?
