This is awful.
-Most games I'm interested in are $20+ (not worth it at this price considering my backlog, I was expecting more $10-$15 games).
-The Vita model is the same old walking dead bundle you can buy now for the same price (and to think I was expecting the new model to be out by Black Friday with a sale price, games, and a larger memory card included in one awesome bundle), I might still pick up an 8gb card for $10 though.
However on a positive note, Xenoblade is finally at a fair price at $40. I may pick up a copy if the "pre-owned" copies are in like new condition like they should be considering GameStop's reprint controversy.
I'm hoping other retailers have better deals but so far I'm disappointed.

Walmart is the only store I can think of that does price matching on Black Friday, if really want to suffer depending on your location.

I just got a wii u myself but I would think it doesn't make a whole lot of difference in the long run. They're both a small amount. Here are some games file sizes just so you can get an idea: http://www.nintendonerds.com/guides/wii-u/wii-u-eshop-games-list-download-sizes-retail
Also
Zelda = 1.7GB
Pikmin = 3.95GB
Earthbound = 50MB
The Wonderful 101 = 10GB
Also I'm reading that the 8GB system only actually has about 3GB available for data storage/downloads. The 32GB has 25GB of free space. So basically you'll want to use an external drive and buy physical.
One more thing if I'm remembering right: Your download are tied to your console. If that's completely wrong someone shut me up, but I think there is something weird like that. So what I'm doing is buying almost everything physical.

Thanks OP. Only interesting deal for me is the PSPlus hopefully we see better deals coming up soon
I have a 32 GB Wii U but I never download so its never an issue.
Also how do you know the Skylanders version is 8 GB? it doesnt say that and its not the basic bundle. The basic bundle was discontinued, all signs point to the Skylanders bundle being 32 GB just like all the other Wii U Bundles like the Deluxe and Windwaker.
*Oh wait I think I can see it says 8 GB. Its still not an issue though and you can easily buy a 16 GB sd card for like 10 dollars if it ever became an issue.

I can't believe these October games are on sale by Black Friday. Don't remember that happening too much before. I'm in for WWE 2K14!
Not sure if I want the 360 version of BF4. I liked the beta considerably less than BF3, which I played a ton. And I don't plan on getting the Xbox One this year. Might have to wait on these.

Just looked up Xenoblade on GS's website, and it is available at nearly every store near me. I wonder if they were hoarding these in a warehouse somewhere.

8gb seems pretty crappy to me.
I better sell my copy I guess...
His point is that bundles are created to convince people to buy a system.
reprints. There has been an off/on discussion about this for a couple of months now.

Yeah I know. They should have moved on by now as other sites posted it (Kotaku credited some small deal site which likely got it from here).

You'll be fine with the 8GB model. You only need the extra storage if you feel that you're going to be into downloadable software, which you likely won't be.
If you find in the future you need more storage, it's just a simple USB Hard Drive away from happening.
Also pick him up Scribblenauts Unmasked, which is discounted to $25 when you pick up that bundle. If he's into superheroes at all he'll love it.

Gotta start saving up then, that Zelda XL will be mine!!! And damn, BF4 for $30, and the B2G1 with Xenoblade and Trilogy being $40!

Yea I'd say that bundle is a very, very good deal. Any kid should enjoy it. Pick up Rayman with it for $25 too.

$30 Plus sub will be mine. Don't see much else but that PS3 bundle is amazing. Two $60 games for a total of $120, then just add 80 for the system. I really think the 250GB PS3 with a game should be $199 normally already.

Not as great as last year but damn I'm going to be gunning for that $30 PS+ 1 year sub!
Looking at Rayman Legends $25, Battlefield 4 $30, Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD $20, Assassin's Creed Black Flag $40, Need For Speed Rivals $40 and Borderlands 2 GotY $30 but I don't really want to play these that much and they will be cheaper within 2 months of BF. I'll probably get one or two of these. Who am I kidding though. Walmart will match or have better prices on these.
Also it would be great to get 2 PS3's and another 360 for free with the B2G1 free used product / games deal! Gamestop is crazy for offering that!
Apart from that, this ad is weak. Most of the games have already been on sale or are already at that price now. The other items can easily be found on Amazon or BestBuy for that price now. I guess that's all BF ads though.
Can we use the birthday coupon or any other coupon on Gamestop BF items?

For the games that will also be out on the PS4 / Xbox One, are the prices the same. Can't see the ad included list (too blurry).

GS next gen upgrade deal won't work for XBox; have to buy BF 4 in the first 30 days of release at GS to get the PUR coupon & Black Friday is day 31.
Digital upgrade on the PS side will work fine.

"Gamers who purchase a PS3 Blu-ray Disc of these four games will find a code packed into the PS3 version that they can redeem on PlayStation Store. To play the PS4 version of the game when it becomes available, you’ll need to insert the original PS3 disc in your PS4 to activate and play the PS4 version, so hang onto that PS3 disc!"
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/09/19/how-to-upgrade-select-ps3-games-to-their-ps4-versions/
It's $10 to upgrade to the digital copy if you choose to. Not sure if any store is doing $10 for physical PS4 disk though.

PS4 upgrade program is digital only for the next-gen versions. XB1 program is with physical disks at GS, AZ, & BB.

Someone asked about slim vs super slim. I've owned all 3 ps3 models and the super slim is the best. Its quiet and doesn't run hot.
Also the swap force Wii u bundle doesn't say it includes the game. just figures. Maybe my old eyes deceive me though.

Hmm, I need Deadpool, I need Kingdom Hearts ... I need to convince myself that being stabbed repeatedly in a crowded store while stepping over people is worth it ... I sure hope Amazon price matches.

thanks, ill scratch off bf4 off my list. my idea was a nice one though
I went to the smallest of the 5 Gamestops within 10-12 minutes of each other the year the Zelda 3DS came out. It took me an hour and a half to get through the line to the register...you obviosuly just say that based of so called black friday horror stories. gamestop never has huge crowds during bf. plus the used copies drop too so its even better for you

I went to a Walmart for BF a few years ago (It was $10 Prototype which I wanted to gift and cheap picture frames.) The games were stocked over in the fruit and veggies section and there was about two shrink wrapped cases and about 500 people. 10 minutes before midnight, a small riot started. A guy jumped up into one of the fruit stands, picked up one of the display cases, tore it open and started to pour the games on the floor. The police were called, people started to trample one another,
, 
, lots of scream and yelling and shoving. Somehow, I managed to get everything I came for ... and it only took 4 hours (I'm not kidding) waiting in line to finally check out. I swore I would never do BF again after that ... and yet here I am, god damn temptation!

While definitely not outstanding, I saw enough content in this sale to drive me to the local GameStop on Black Friday. The real question is going to be which one to go to. I'll do a little calling around the week before to check on the state of their inventories.
I already have Tales of Xillia. But I have a friend who would love to get a copy of that for Christmas, and he never goes out shopping on Black Friday. That would make an inexpensive present that he would appreciate. Plenty of other solid deals as well. I'm very tempted by the $40 Elder Scrolls collection.

If anyone is wondering, that Skylanders Wii U bundle is only 8 GB.
Also what is that PS3 game next to Tales in the ad? I can't quite make it out.

I believe that it is Dragon's Crown. A very fine game, and a decent deal. (it's original MSRP is $50) I would especially recommend it if you have friends that you can play with. The co-op is where it's at with Dragon's Crown.

Walmart is definitely horrible on BF. That's the store that I won't go to during their door busters because it's overcrowded, tempers flare and you just never know what might happen.
