Huh? Trauma Center is on sale?
 
Just got back from the CC in Metrocenter in Phx, AZ. Still had a good selection left at least one of each of the more popular titles, except no Lunar Ds. Looking for that one.

Got GBA
Harvest Moon
Tales of Phantasia
Mario Party adv

DS
Trace Memory
Guilty Gear
Advance Wars
 
[quote name='aoLat']Who said that Trauma Center was on sale? It's not in the OP..[/quote]
Trauma Center is completely unconfirmed. It was suggested by someone, and hasn't been checked yet.
 
[quote name='shipwreck']One of the best platformers EVER. Probably the best game in this whole sale. Go back and get it.[/QUOTE]

completely agree - I'm actually sitting here playing it right now instead of running out to the sale *gasp* how very unCAGlike of me - no actually me and my fiance are gonna go by this afternoon - she wants trace memory

But definately pick up Drill Dozer if you see it - awesome game - you'll be cursing it every minute but loving it all the same.
 
DAMMIT! Just went to my Circuit City and came back and only now just noticed Drill Dozer was on the list. Now i got to go by another one later and check. Man i love going poor in a hurry.
 
I came back from the Eastside Madison, WI store with:

Star Wars Episode 3 (last copy)
Ultimate Spiderman (last copy)
Dragon Ball Z Super Sonic Warriors 2 (a few left)
Guilty Gear (a few left)
Polarium (one left)
Pac N Roll (last copy)

They had several copies of King Kong DS, as well as a few copies of Dr. Mario/Puzzle League. No Final Fantasy games, Metroid Pinball, or Advance Wars, which are the ones I wanted most. I might check the Westside store after work unless someone reports that it is picked over.
 
Just called my store on Trauma Center (my friend just went in to CC to work her shift). She says it's not coming up in the computer... Super Mario 64DS is also still full price.

Since Trauma Center isn't coming up (and Drill Dozer is doing the same thing), I'd say there's definitely a shot at this thing being part of the list. Somebody confirm it.
 
[quote name='crewj']hope you know that drill dozer is a GBA game![/QUOTE]


Yeah, I just noticed that I put that in the wrong place! Got too excited about the sale!
 
ATTENTION THE FOLLOWING CAGS:

Monkeypox
Nhamze
Doho7744
Loserboy
Eggplant_Wizard
schultzed

I have your "orders" so to speak, and I will PM you soon letting you know what I find. Everything else looks to be in order.

AGAIN:

If there's anyone looking for a few games that they haven't found, I AM LOOKING FOR FELLOW CAGs. However, you *must* agree to pay cost+shipping+slight extra (to cover gas and such). Additionally, I ask that you have some feedback on here OR can show me positive feedback on something like eBay.

To my knowledge the following are not available at my store:

Drill Dozer
Kirby: Amazing Mirror
Advance Wars

The following more than likely aren't there:

Lunar
Metroid Pinball
Tales of Phantasia

I will be going again soon, and will go with what I have.

Thanks again OP and everyone!

P.S. IF YOU CAN HOOK ME UP WITH DRILL DOZER OR KIRBY, I will be MOST appreciative!

yeah, I'm kicking myself for not picking up drill dozer when amazon dropped it to $19.98... I stupidly thought that other stores would follow.

everything I've read about the game describes it as an old-school megaman type adventure. there just aren't enough of those anymore.
 
[quote name='botticus']It's probably the platformer with the lowest marketing to quality ratio ever.

In other words, one of the best games that no one knows about.

If there is enough interest, I may be able to pick up a number of games to offer up here for $15 shipped. Advance Wars DS, Drill Dozer, etc. Probably won't head back till tomorrow though, unless something new shows up that I need to look for.[/QUOTE]

That would be awesome... advance wars, drill dozer, tales of phantasia, gunstar super heroes, DK king of swing... I "need" all five, will still check a useless circuit city later today but don't expect to find anything there.

Edit: checked it, got tales, still need the other four.
 
went back to Manchester, CT. and picked up:

Advance Wars DS
Star Wars Episode 3
Dig Dug

and then at the Newington, CT i found the last Metroid Prime Pinball.

i'd also like to say something to the 24 year old CAG'er in the manchester area, who sent his retired mother to circuit city:

you are welcome for Advance Wars and Trace Memory, i helped her find the last copies of each, hahaha.
 
[quote name='spamfree2']Anyone check Warioware Twisted?[/QUOTE]
Yes, I tried it and it was a no go. Rang up at full price.

So modifications to the list:

Yoshi Topsy Turvy is confirmed to be $8.96.

Add Wareware Twisted to the NOT on sale list.
 
[quote name='spamfree2']Anyone check Warioware Twisted?[/QUOTE]

Yes, at Sunnyvale and Santa Clara CA stores. Not on sale.

Did ok, picked up:

Dig Dug
Spongebob
Advance Wars (keeper)
Spyro
Sigma Star SAga
Goldeneye
Marvel Nemesis
Lunar
Trace Memory

Met a CAGer at both locations (same guy). I think his name was Jason but forgot his CAG ID. Nice guy, pointed out Lunar and Trace Memory for me. I Picked out AW for him.

I was at the Sunnyvale a minute or two earlier than he was but he was able to grab Metroid before to saw it. Just bad luck starting at the wrong end of the rack. That and AW were the ones I was really hoping for so 1 out of 2 wasn't bad.

I'll probably put the other non-hot titles up on my employee market place and see if I can make a couple bucks on each just to cover my gas and time, no gouging by me unless someone is interested in them, same deal plus shipping which will probably be about $15 or so each.

Thanks to the OP for the early warning (helps to be in CA sometimes) and to the CAGer I met today (if you find Metroid PB, PM me!).

I'll buy outright Metroid PB for $15 shipped if anyone has any extras or consider a direct swap for any of the above except AW.

[quote name='spamfree2']Anyone check Warioware Twisted?[/QUOTE]
That's 29.99

Chandler AZ CC has the gba games reduced (I only mention that because the manager told me full price on all the ps2 games).

Sigma Star, Phantasia, Not a lot, but may be worth checking out.
 
Addendum to my previous list of people I'm checking for:

schultzed
solsovly

Damn, CAG and CC strike again. I scored

Final Fantasy I & II
Final Fantasy IV Advanced
Advance Wars DS
Guilty Gear DS

Again when I aksed for a price check they gave me "Whatever is on the box is right" and then when they scanned it they acted like I was shop lifting or something. The guy that did the check out was like "Oh snap, is there anymore Final Fantasy back there?".

There was a couple copies of Guilty Gear & Advance Wars left and probably 3-4 Trace Memory but I left it because I already have it. I grabbed the last FF but I might try my luck finding one at another CC because my I & II box is a little mangled. Couldn't find Meteos though. Didn't check on the rest. Thanks OP.

Chandler has Lunar DS. But it's a horrible game, fyi.

I called Metrocenter and he didn't have any Advance Wars DS. dang.
 
This is the Brookfield CC

I picked up:

Advance Wars x2 (Both of these are up for trade, one is sealed, the other was opened and played for about 15 minutes by my co worker who didn't care for it) I'm looking to trade it for Drill Dozer mainly

Urbz (for my afforementioned Co Worker)
Pac N Roll
Trace Memory
Lunar
Guilty Gear
Dig Dug
DBZ SSW 2
Tales of Phantasia

Tales is gone, as is Advance Wars, myself and another CAG'er got the last copies. No FF4, but they did have FF 1&2, several copies of the Zelda bundle. I thought I saw Metroid Pinball, but I wasn't sure (I already had the game and wasn't aware it was on sale at the time I went there)
 
[quote name='cribbs542']went back to Manchester, CT. and picked up:
Advance Wars DS
you are welcome for Advance Wars and Trace Memory, i helped her find the last copies of each, hahaha.[/QUOTE]
Aaaaah, you suck. I knew I should have picked AW up when I was there. I was going to head back in a couple hours. Ah well. My cart only version plays just as good.
I can't believe that was the last copy of Trace Memory. There were at least four of them easily located on the shelf on the top right side of the rack and a few more on that bottom overflow area. That store isn't that popular, there's still popular old clearance stuff there. Did this hit FW or SD?
Maybe I'll stop again anyway.
 
Took an early lunch so I could pick up :gba: FFIV and ToP for my brother in Iraq, and some games for myself at the local CC.

While looking at the Ninendo back wall at the CC I notice another gentleman picking up games I knew where clearanced. We acknowleged each other, and he asks me where I found out about the sale. I reply "Slickdeals" to see if this has leaked anywhere else yet. He mentioned CAG, so I admitted finding this on CAG as well. The fellow CAG's screen name was Zforce.

Anyway, here's what I remember seeing (and #'s left).

:ds:
Advance Wars (none left)
Dig Dug (1)
Dragon Ball Z Super Sonic Warriors 2 (2)
Guilty Gear (1)
Lunar (1)
Marvel Nemesis (3)
Metroid Prime Pinball (6-ish)
Monster Truck DS (6+)
Need For Speed Underground 2 (6+)
Pac N Roll (1)
Polarium (5)
Sponge Bob Yellow Avenger (3)
Star Wars Episode 3 (6+)
Trace Memory (1)
The Urbz (6+)
Ultimate Spiderman (6+)



:gba:

Donkey Kong: King of Swing (12+)- Didn’t know it was on sale at the time but I thought it might be
Dr. Mario/Puzzle League (6+)
Final Fantasy I & II (2)
Mario Party Advance (12+)- Didn’t know it was on sale at the time
Nightmare Before Christmas- Didn’t know it was on sale at the time but I thought it might be
Pitfall/Zelda Four Swords (5)
Sigma Star Saga (4)
Sword Of Mana (1)
Tales Of Phantasia (none left)



I ended up only getting Advance Wars DS and Tales Phantasia.
 
They Pulled all the games in fort wayne.

That would make sense. In that case, we should hoard what we can, trade amongst each other, wait until they've pulled everything and then maybe let the SD and FW peeps know. lol

Haha, this is like last year when the sale was supposed to be for July 4th weekend and all the prices and games were leaked way early, and by the time the sale was advertised there wasn't shit left.

And you people are dense if you think SD and FW people don't know about this sale yet. CAG has just as many resellers as they do, anyways.
 
Freakin' Sweet Op thanks picked up:

DS
Advance Wars
Ult. Spiderman
Pac n Roll
Trace Memory
Star Wars III
Guilty Gear
Dragonball Z:SSW2

GBA

hiya, well i just came back from the lake forest, cali store, i only picked up FFIV and TOP because thats was what was on the list at nite that i wanted, damn i sohuld of checked in the morning... well i really was just driving by and remembered about this sale and wanted to see if it was true. damn now i gotta go back and see if they have lunar (i remember seeing one), and advance wars, and really see if trauma center is on sale... wonder what else i sohuld get too, doesnt seem like any CAGs where i live (good thing lol).
 
Thanks to the OP and to everyone who has contributed. :)

I picked up this morning (San Rafael, CA),

-Legend of Zelda: LTTP/Pitfall combo pack
-Trace Memory (last copy!)
-Metroid Prime Pinball (only had 2 copies)

When I asked for a price check the cashier was thrown off by the prices. She double checked all the UPC's to make sure they were matching the ones shown on her screen. After that, she seemed really cool and was happy they were so cheap.

Now...what to do with Pitfall. I really only wanted Zelda :)

heh, nice to know there are CAG "spies" out there.

you should've asked for the secret CAG handshake, so when he asks what that is, you punch him in the nuts.

this show of force will keep others from talking about the sale elsewhere.
 
[quote name='lilboo']Hey.. does the rumble pack in Metroid Pinball work w/ a DSLite???
Probably.. but just making sure..[/QUOTE]

Yes, most definitely will work.

HEY ALL I COULD USE A ZELDA 4 SWORDS ALSO.
 
i was able to pick up the following:

Drill Dozer x 2
Lunar X2
Tales of Phantasia X 3
Final Fantasy Tactics x 1
Final Fantasy 4 x 3
Guilty Gear x 2
Trace memory x 1
Finding Nemo x 1
Dragon Ball z x 1
Metroid Pinball x 4
Metroid Zero Mission x 1
Harvest Moon More Friends x 1
Dr. Mario/ Puzzle League x 1

23 games and 1 butterfinger and Mentos mints for total of $193.01...could have gotten it about 7 bucks cheaper but i wasnt thinking when i used the first coupon(2 seperate transactions)
 
Man, I wonder if any Gamecube or Xbox games have dropped for the 7/4 sale too...I should have gotten some price checks.

I did get a price check on Pokemon Leaf Green, but it rang up $19.99 so I left it.

Holy shit... anybody else tried games across other systems? This could be another one of the really big kinda clearances! Like the back in the day ones.. holy shit...
 
Hmmm.. a game AND a rumble pack for $9...Hmm...
Now I gotta look at my games and see if any of the games are rumble pack supported..
 
I never even go to Fatwallet or Slickdeals myself :p When manthing told me he heard about the sale from Slickdeals, I was like "uh oh, the jig is up"
