Wario64 posted this morning so no surprise.yeah and red card. so its more like $28.50+tax.
think I will go Target route, and cancel my gamestop preorder. same with my $60 Zelda gamestop preorder, this is way too slick
also Hogwarts PS5 label was created today, woo and in preparing to ship phase. Today is a good day

Edit: wow ToTK and Metroid sold out preorders, that was quick! just barely got them in
Pikmin4 is also sold out now.Wario64 posted this morning so no surprise.
I'm thinking Nintendo is going to remaster all 3 games in the Metroid Prime Trilogy and sell each for $40. Fans may have been in an uproar if they sold them for $60 each.i am still amazed nintendo didn't try to sell metroid for $60

This. I bet all 3 are done, but if they released all three together they'd only be able to charge $60/$70, but releasing them individually they will get $120.I'm thinking Nintendo is going to remaster all 3 games in the Metroid Prime Trilogy and sell each for $40.

I could see those as $20 eShop titles.The rumors (from the same people who said Prime 1 remaster was coming at the end of last year) are that Prime 2 and 3 (which are supposedly ready) just got basic remastering and not the full overhaul 1 got, so they might sell them separately for a lower price, or together for $40-60.
That would make sense. I hope they do the same treatment to 2. The third one they could probably just get the controls down and upscale it and release that one for $20 and I'd be fine with that.The rumors (from the same people who said Prime 1 remaster was coming at the end of last year) are that Prime 2 and 3 (which are supposedly ready) just got basic remastering and not the full overhaul 1 got, so they might sell them separately for a lower price, or together for $40-60.
Why would Nintendo not put the same care into the next 2 prime games?The rumors (from the same people who said Prime 1 remaster was coming at the end of last year) are that Prime 2 and 3 (which are supposedly ready) just got basic remastering and not the full overhaul 1 got, so they might sell them separately for a lower price, or together for $40-60.
Haha okay let’s first say that none of us know anything. Now then, if remastering the first went over budget or over schedule, it would be obvious to say, let’s not do that again.Why would Nintendo not put the same care into the next 2 prime games?
No surprise there given that excluded stuff only lasts so long.Along with being sold out, Zelda / Metroid / Pikmin are no longer eligible for bogo 50%.
+ Retro did the remastering for Prime 1 and they're also working on Prime 4.Haha okay let’s first say that none of us know anything. Now then, if remastering the first went over budget or over schedule, it would be obvious to say, let’s not do that again.
I paid a lot for the maracas in 2001 or 2002. I imagine they'd be really pricey now, but eBay seemed okay price-wise on two posting I clicked on just now.i still regret not buying the maracas on the dreamcast and the virtua on twin stick
Of course it happens while I'm sleeping and was too late by the time I saw itZelda totk, pikmin 4 and Metroid prime eligible for the promo as of right now. Go before they pull them.

Damn. Now that was the glitch to have.I grabbed Zelda and Pikmin 4 this morning, and the discount applied to the more expensive of the two items, Zelda. I got ($34.99) off.
Later this evening, I did it again with Dead Space on PS5 $69.99 and the Patlabor complete Blu-ray set $58.99, and again the discount applied to the more expensive item (-$34.48)
Yeah, B2G1 essentially amounts to a 33% effective discount. This one is 25% overall. Still great It's the first one I've partaken in in a whileEven on the final day, they added Celeste for PS4 and Switch.
The deal itself might not be as good as buy2get1 but in terms of the number of heavy hitters that got added during the sale, this sale really was one of the best Target has had in a while. Thanks for having the direct this week Nintendo. I’ve got preorders through August set at this point. Almost like the glory days of Best Buy gamers club unlocked 20% off.
If you are in it for some preorders perhaps, but outside of stuff like the first-party titles that momentarily and mistakenly slipped through the cracks, the same games that are eligible now are likely to be again next time around in a few months if they go back to a B2G1 free. I picked up 3 titles last time for less than what they are now in the current promo.Even on the final day, they added Celeste for PS4 and Switch.

We'll see, but I think B2G1 is being replaced with B1GO 50% off. Retailers suffered massive losses over the last two quarters. They're all looking for ways to reduce discounts to boost margins.If you are in it for some preorders perhaps, but outside of stuff like the first-party titles that momentarily and mistakenly slipped through the cracks, the same games that are eligible now are likely to be again next time around in a few months if they go back to a B2G1 free.

There was only one other time I can remember where they messed up exclusions to this degree. It was about a year and a half ago when I snagged Advance Wars and Metroid Dread with other first party titles in buy2get1.If you are in it for some preorders perhaps, but outside of stuff like the first-party titles that momentarily and mistakenly slipped through the cracks, the same games that are eligible now are likely to be again next time around in a few months if they go back to a B2G1 free.

I believe they did multiple b2g1's last year. At least 3 before june I want to say. They also did the flat 30% off +5% circle +5% with red card offer on april 24th.There was only one other time I can remember where they messed up exclusions to this degree. It was about a year and a half ago when I snagged Advance Wars and Metroid Dread with other first party titles in buy2get1.
I really thought that was the last time they were going to make the mistake but they didn’t disappoint this time around.
There was one other time over a decade ago before they had much of an online presence 2010-2011 where in store the buy2get1 ended up glitching as buy1get1. Those few hours that Sunday were glorious.
Right, which is why I said “to this degree”They mess up exclusions EVERY sale basically. Now what all that are exclusions that apply is random but it has happened every time in the last year + that I have been following this page.
I think you meant more "that you could remember" as you'd be incorrect on to this degree given that it happens all the time. But anywho all the previous sales I mentioned applied to first party nintendo titles. Metroid dread, pokemon arceus, pokemon diamond, pokemon pearl, pokemon dp double pack etc... The exclusions are often broken at the very start of any sale they have. And it takes target a while to fix it. Sometimes a day sometimes the morning of sometimes an hour or two after the sale begins around 2 am. It also varies game by game/platform for multiplat titles like the trails series where this go around azure didn't apply to the sale.Right, which is why I said “to this degree”
I tried your 2nd example just now. What I see is 29.50 discount plus 5% from red card which is 4.98, for a total of 34.48. So in this case it is discounting the cheaper item.I grabbed Zelda and Pikmin 4 this morning, and the discount applied to the more expensive of the two items, Zelda. I got ($34.99) off.

You’re a peach, thanks for making sure to correct my own opinion.I think you meant more "that you could remember" as you'd be incorrect on to this degree given that it happens all the time.

Probably the only consistent games that have not been on sale were triangle strategy, final fantasy paradise whatever and octopath traveler off the top of my head.
Oh, very good catch. It does calculate the red card discount that I didn't take that into account.I tried your 2nd example just now. What I see is 29.50 discount plus 5% from red card which is 4.98, for a total of 34.48. So in this case it is discounting the cheaper item.
Also with a 69.99 and 59.99 combo, it's 29.99 plus 5% off from redcard, $5, for a total of $34.99.
If you don't have red card, then maybe it was a glitch.
that’s a great find! My local targets don’t have any new console games except the most recent major titles. One piece, hogwarts, etc. otherwise the entire game section is empty. Same with groceries. They even put up signs saying “sorry we are out of food, we are working on it”Picked up Resident Evil Village PS5 for 8.99
I got this email as well. Just note Target has a history of saying they shipped something when in reality they just printed out the shipping label. I will not consider mine shipped until I see that UPS has the item in their tracking.Target shipped my $30 Metroid Prime from the bogo 50%. Should arrive on 2/24 which is fast for Target.
GameStop just did this to me. Ordered on 2/13. Got a shipping email and tracking number 2/14. Didn’t actually move and get picked up until 2/17. I called GameStop customer service to ask why it didn’t move for days yet I had a tracking number. After being on hold for a little bit the system said “due to heavy call volume we are too busy to answer your call, please call back tomorrow” and it hung up on me.I got this email as well.

I got Mass Effect: Legendary Edition and Scarlet Nexus both for Xbox One for $30 from that sale last week. They can't beat that.Also got the 20% off video games. No reason to use this after the bogo 50% (ie 25% off) from last week.
It's good on select preorders, including some that weren't available last week with the B1G150% (Switch versions of Disgaea 7 and Rhapsody for example).Also got the 20% off video games. No reason to use this after the bogo 50% (ie 25% off) from last week.
My $28 dollar (BOG50% and 5% redcard) Metroid Prime Remastered copy shipped yesterday, wooo. Getting it this week
Same, should arrive on Friday.And then release the trilogy in 4K as a single release on the next console.
