:shock:

Thanks for the info! I'll have to go down to my local CC and see if I can't get Revenge of the Sith, Sword of Mana, and Final Fantasy IV Advance.
 
[quote name='megaseadramon']Would this be a YMMV or is this all CC's.[/QUOTE]

As of right now I'm treating this as a YMMV situation. In fact I'm about to add that to the topic title. These are the ones that so far I have found to be coming up at $8.96 at least at my location.

And folks - PLEASE READ THE MAIN MESSAGE BEFORE POSTING QUESTIONS.
 
[quote name='mkg12']Guilty Gear is $29.99 Online, So is FFIV advanced, Trace Memory, Tales Of Phantasia[/QUOTE]

Let me repeat what I said in the main post....

[quote name='The Main Post']Also to give heads up none of these are coming up on CircuitCity.com at $8.96 as of 10:45 PM CST. Its hard to say when they will but eventually they will drop to the $8.96 price. Also this is very YMMV at the moment in store as I suspect not every store has had these adjusted in the system yet to the $8.96 price level.[/quote]
 
Thanks for the list, makes me even more anxious for the GC/Xbox titles. FFIV is funny considering it's advertised in next week's ad for $19.99.
 
I wonder if it would be worth getting the games I want tomorrow, then just waiting for a price adjustment.

My CC is pretty crappy though, so I dunno how long it will take them to scan these prices in.
 
Sweet Jesusflakes! :D

GTA and Final Fantasy IV look very tempting, and if there are going to be GameCube games dropping as well...well, it looks like I've got to go pay a visit.

We need to figure out what stores the prices are in effect at. It sounds like this one is VERY YMMV - especially with the advertised price being $10 higher in the case of FFIV - but there's still room to hope...

I just hope I get lucky at Circuit City for once instead of going in and finding jack squat like I always do. I shouldn't get my hopes up, but it's so tempting...

Are any of these worth getting? The ony thing that looks interesting is Trace Memory.
 
I missed out big on the earlier CC price drops (from, y'know, not being a CAG until May), but I'm glad I'm here from the start on this one. To CC tomorrow! I've been looking for a good price on Polarium for a while, anyways. And FFIV for $9? *head explodes... with savings!*

I'll check it tomorrow and let you know exactly how YMMV this is.

For a little visual proof of the legitimacy of the markdowns....

PS2 last week and now DS/GBA. With so many $8.96 clearance games going on, I'm gonna be broke very soon...
 
Demo, I think you might be spot on. I tried to order a copy of Marvel & Trace Memory and I get an error page. Doesn't happen when I try to order something not on the list.
 
[quote name='CocheseUGA']Are any of these worth getting? The ony thing that looks interesting is Trace Memory.[/QUOTE]
Most of those are bad, bad games (especially Marvel: Nemesis and King Kong, which, I kid you not, will reset your DS). However, Trace Memory I'd highly recommend and Polarium is supposed to be good. Not Meteos or Tetris DS good, but good.
Guilty Gear and Pac N Roll are supposed to be okay. Probably worth a shot at $9.
And I've actually heard the DS version of Goldeneye called the best version of that game... which is really, really sad. Shame on you EA. Shame.

Actually, to add some context, here's the GameRankings.com rankings on all these games.
DS
Star Wars Episode 3 - 71.9%
Polarium - 74.9%
Spyro - 52.4%
Ultimate Spiderman - 75.8%
Dragon Ball Z Super Sonic Warriors 2 - 69.6%
Finding Nemo - 64.5%
Goldeneye - 57.7%
Guilty Gear - 64%
The Incredibles - 56.6%
King Kong - 26%
Madden 2005 - 67.4%
Marvel Nemesis - 31.1%
Monster Truck DS - 33%
Need For Speed Underground 2 - 65.8%
Sponge Bob Yellow Avenger - 59.2%
Pac N Roll - 72.9%
Scooby Doo Unmasked - 63.7%
Tiger Woods PGA - 63.4%
Trace Memory - 72%
The Urbz - 66.6%

GBA
Grand Theft Auto - 71%
Sword Of Mana - 72%
Wario Ware Inc - 89.4%
Metroid Zero Mission - 90%
Final Fantasy IV Advance - 84%
Tales Of Phantasia - 74%

Hopes that helps all you CAG's out.

I couldn't get rid of that game fast enough.

Same here. Tried adding Trace Memory to my cart to check store avaibility, and it went to the error page.
 
I'll say that Pac N Roll is easily worth $8.96 as I got it at Sears a few months ago for $9.99. Quite a bit of fun. You'll get your money's worth out of it. :D
 
I just did the same thing on CircuitCity.com and got the error page. I then tried the Checkout process with a CD and its working fine. I'm suspecting that the system might do an update tonight (usually around 2-3 AM CST) with the prices reflected to the $8.96 markdown. I added this information to the main post.

I won't be up at that time so if any mod who is up and somehow the markdowns come up online can one of you fine mods add it in for me? Thanks.
 
Man, with the Kmart clearance, the Circuit City clearance, and the Gamestop/EB B2G1 free coupon, my credit cards are getting a workout. Thanks so much CAG, I love these deals!!
 
[quote name='Rictor']Any of these games trade in for a decent amount at Game Rush?[/QUOTE]
If you're buying just to trade in, you're a fucking idiot.
 
[quote name='Rictor']Any of these games trade in for a decent amount at Game Rush?[/QUOTE]

How about leaving them for people who want to buy them to PLAY them instead? Last time I checked this is Cheap Ass GAMER, not Cheap Ass Hoarder aka Fat Wallet.

(And yes my friends... that is a SHOOT)
 
Possible other DS titles:
DigDug: Digging Strike
Texas Hold 'Em Poker
Lunar Dragon Song
Guilty Gear Dust Strikers


Ultimate Spiderman comes up normal

We don't know WHY the errors are happening, remember. Just because they are doesn't mean that the prices will drop.

Of course, we can always hope...:D

That's why I said possible. But with everything else the same, I'd put money on at least three of those holding true.
 
[quote name='Demolition Man']Sadly my CC doesn't have the Dig Dug, Texas Hold Em, or Lunar titles anymore so I can't confirm (or deny) any markdowns on them.[/QUOTE]
Besides, I'm not even sure any of those are actually WORTH $9.
Lunar: Dragon Song? :bomb:

For the record "Ultimate Spiderman" did come up at $8.96 at my location. Plus it is part of the PS2 markdowns so its not far fetched to see the DS version get an identical markdown.
