I ordered one backordered and it shipped in a few days. They should have it again fairly soon. Only thing is, you're not guaranteed a case or manual.

Not that worried about the case and book, I'd rather save 25 bucks. Thanks for the heads up.
 
hmm, my resident evil 2 for GC shipped already.

kind of glad i decided to stay awake and check for it today.
 
Today I found a complete power stone 2 DC @ B&M

edit: off topic, but I also picked up a mint Res. Evil 2 for gc @ a pawnshop for $12.

my $3 inindo already shipped as well...cant wait to get that XoD
 
Darn it! I wish I would have known that Mr. Mosquito was in stock last night.

Well, I was able to get Link's Awakening DX (4.99) and Magi Nation (2.99) for 6.XX after coupons and SAVER this morning. yay

I have Mario is Missing for the PC...I wonder if it still works...EDIT: It wasn't that good from what I can remember (but it wasn't that bad either). It was boring and had a lot of landmarks (educational game).
 
If it's in a mall, then whenever the mall opens. Otherwise it's usually 10 am, 11 am on Sundays.



[quote name='theq87']Anybody know what time EB's generally open?[/quote]
 
[quote name='Strider Turbulence']Dear God...they are actually releasing Spikeout?! I haven't seen the arcade version in years!

I gotta pre-order that today at EB B&M.[/quote]

Yeah or order today and get free three day shipping and possibly avoid sales tax. I just put in my pre-order online boiiiiiiiiiii!

Edit: Take that back, will most likely get charged sales tax. But if it gurantees me a copy, good.
 
[quote name='hiccupleftovers']I miss the Cash for Stash coupon so much.[/quote]

Why in the world would you miss that? I mean this thread is about online deals, and there's really no reason you can't just use the edge card, saver, and cag15 to get 25% and free shipping which basically comes out the same as 30% off.

The 30% off was very useful in-store.

The reason I miss it is that sometimes items that pop on the internet and then get sold out are in-stock at my store and at the price they are at (and being the CAG I am) just doesn't make it worth it. And also at the moment my EB has a lot of the stuff that normally gets listed on here. At least the B2G1 that starts tomorrow will appease my wallet a little.

Not to mention how worth it is.

30% Cash for Stash was usable in-store. Pplay15 is not. There is your reason why.

Plus if you were ordering one item that costs more than $40 (maybe Steel Battalion), the extra 5% saves you more than the shipping costs.
 
I understand taht 30% off is good in store, however this thread is about EBgames.com website being updated, that's why I think in store deals are best left to another thread, that's what I meant.

Now that EBGames.com has a zip code search function, I wish they'd list sold out games on their site (like Gamestop.com does). Yeah, I know it potentially clutters the site, but when it's not available online, I'd still like to get an idea of which local stores might have it in stock. It would also allow me to bookmark the page of a sold out item so I can check it periodically like I do for certain games on Gamestop.com.

-DM
 
I agree with that, I'd prefer an item page saying 'Currently not in stock', with the zip code search included, to the 'Page does not exist.'

O.K., again from the top. The coupon for B&M is the equivalent of Saver/Pplay15 or Cag15/Edge Card. I don't think I can go up to the guy at the counter of EB and say either CAG15 or Pplay15 and he'll take off that amount. :lol: That'd actually be pretty funny. Also The site can also list which store in your area has the game in-stock if th site hasn't taken off that item yet. ALso you can do B&M pick up, etc. I still don't see what is the problem saying that I really miss the coupon, which I might add that the only way to get it was through online ways. Also technically, you could use that coupon and the EdgeCard online if you wanted to because it had a number on it but then there would be no free shippin which sometimes can be killer.
 
 
It's already out already, but is Lunar Legend for GBA a hard to find title? Just wondering if this is something I should be jumping on when it comes in-stock, or if I can continue to be lazy about it. ^_^ Thanks.
 
i'd be lazy about it. bought it new and ran through the game in 4 days. has no side quests, just straight point A to B. kinda on the boring side also imo
 
Half the titles are out already, but it's a good idea to come back to this page if they come back, although if I get time and they don't get gobbled up asap, I'll post when certain titles are avaible in stock. With the recent B2G1 im sure peeps will be eating up some titles.

It's rather fun, but no way is it as good as the PSX version. The PSX version had better music, fmvs, and in general seemed just better overall. Lunar Legend seemed alot more simplfied. I'm just hoping for a GBA Lunar 2 down the road although I doubt it.
 
got my resident evil 2 today. The game looks new. :D

finally completed my GC resident evil collection.
 
So tomorrow is a holiday...Anyone want to take bets on whether they update or not?

Edit: The vB code I know doesn't work here.
 
Well thank you for whoever got RE2. It was in my cart along with RE3 and it took my BUY2GET1 coupon but then RE2 wasn't there. Got RE3 for $2 shipped.
 
Best score in a while for me today. I managed to get RE 2, 3, and Code Name Veronica all for GCN. Gonna get Zero and RE 1 today and I figure by the time I finish all of those RE 4 will be cheaper.
