Totally in for Rhythm Heaven Fever. I'd also get Rayman Origins but don't have enough.

[IrishNinja]

okay so before i pull the trigger, just so im clear: 1) i go to best buy right now, buy spirit camera for $40 and elect store pickup 2) if i pick it up sunday, i can get a pricematch and $25 refund? or is there a risk they sell out, and i should pick it up today just in case or wha?

still wondering before i do it
*edit actually wait, sold out except for the store kinda far from here, unless this is an online thing nevermind

[bob page]

In for:

Driver
Rhythm Heaven Fever
Bulletstorm

Those who pass on Rayman for $10 and don't have it yet aren't gamers.

[RedSwirl]

How much is there to do in Kirby's Epic Yarn postgame? I already beat it off of a rental, but I'm looking to have a roughly complete Kirby collection once that pack comes out in September.

[Cheddahz]

It looks like I will be trading in RE: ORC and NBA 2K12 and getting myself Rayman Origins and either Final Fantasy IV or Tekken Hybrid

Yes you'd be able to do that. Just bring in the order confirmation e-mail since that'll pretty much be the receipt and they'll do the price adjustment through customer service, putting whatever your owed back on the card you purchased with.

[Ken Masters]

Yeah it's this: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/BD%26amp...&skuId=4759751 Not gonna buy. Was hoping for something that charged the system.

that looks bad, like .99 cents bad

[Taco_Human]

Oh it starts tomorrow. Tagging this thread. Gonna buy Rhythm Heaven twice. One for me and one for a sibling.

[omgkitty]

Anyone else noticed that Layton is only available as used on their website? Please don't tell me this is something I'm going to have to search for in Best Buy's terrible store!

[Loch Doun]

Getting Dead Space 2 and Dead Rising OTR if my store has it.

[jrDev]

JDKids 2 - $10 - cancel that, it's not the Wii version :-/
JD3 - $10
Dead Space 2 - $10
Kirby Epic Yarn - $10
Rayman - $10

$40 total of gaming goodness...

[5amshift]

Definitely picking up a few games I wanted to try out.

[Gillian Seed]

This stuff will be online as well right?

[mugoldeneagle03]

Yes, should go live in the early morning. Though online inventories are usually limited so expect In Store Pick Up for a lot of items that sell out quickly.

Link down?

It's not August 12 yet.

[nel e nel]

Welp, based on the responses in this thread, it looks like I shouldn't have a problem securing a copy of Never Dead.

[hayejin]

Seriously if you are remotely interested in any of the games then order them now and do an in store pick up right now! Come tomorrow, call and get the price match so you can still get the sale price + 10 dollar credit for in store pick up of $50 order.

2/3 of the games that were all available few days ago are already unavailable now with people doing the exact thing above and you won't have a rat's chance to order any of the titles once the sale goes online tomorrow. Better yet your order will be cancelled due to low stock even if you can order some during the sales period.

Eh, I'll take my chances. People jumping the gun frustrate the shit out of me. Especially when they're going to be buying up shitloads of copies just to shift to Gamestop. And I wouldn't be suprised if that $10 credit is taken away when your price adjustment takes the games to under $50.

There's really nothing on the lists that I absolutely have to have, so I'll just chance it and hope I can snag a copy of Rhythm Fever Heaven and a Vita charging cradle. Debating on DQIX, Tetris Axis, Singularity, and Dungeon Siege.

Edit: I thought it was a Vita chargin cradle, not literally just a stand for my Vita. Welp that' $5 staying in my pocket. Checked my local stores and it looks like I'm just going to go for Child of Eden (forgot about that one) for 360 and Rhythm Fever.

[hayejin]

You can get 10 credit as long as order isn't cancelled. Also price adjustment trough phone on online order is not reflected on order summary. So you still qualify for credit as long as you pick it up before you do price adjustment.

Besides if you're going to store anyway then simply place order now for in store pick up and then ask for adjustment when you go there tomorrow. They'll CANCEL and rescan right there. That's why it's best to just pick up at full price enabling ten dollar credit. Then simply price match right there or do it try phone.

Hoarders have already stored away most of the items. Try searching for crysis 2 anywhere in ur area.

[IrishNinja]

awesome, it just showed up again somehow at my local store, so fuck it, im buying. thanks man.

If you do online order and store pick up, you don't even have to goto store for price adjustment. You can just do it over the phone. Also you can do price adjustment on any best buy store. So if you bought something from best buy near your work which maybe 30 miles away, you can still take the receipt to any best buy near your home and get price adjustment.

Thank you, I was only looking at the end date. GAF always looking into the future......

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Damn, I just want dirt 3. Nothing around me :(

[NIGHT-]

Damn.. Almost everything was in stock at my local bb yesterday. Now only a few games that I wanted are. Everything I want is still within 30 min, just scared that store is gonna run out of stock as well before tomorrow morning. How early do these sales take to go in effect? Will they show up online at 12 am or sometime after that?

[Snowden's Secret]

I was at a local Best Buy tonight and picked up the last copies each of Rhythm Heaven Fever, Bulletstorm, and Spirit Camera, and Just Dance 3 and Rayman Origins. Grand total was a whopping $160, but I should get $115 of that back when I price guarantee them in the morning.

I was holding out for the 3DS version of Rayman (is that even still a thing?) but I couldn't pass up $10 so I nabbed the 360 version since I own litetally no other platformers on the system. Yay for sales!

[goldenticket]

How early do these sales take to go in effect? Will they show up online at 12 am or sometime after that?

im wondering that too. 12am eastern time? Anybody know or have a good guess?

[Wario64]

I'm guessing they'lll go live around 10-11 PM PDT

[Neuromancer]

Hmm I'm thinking about Skate 3.

[~Kinggi~]

Past sales have started at around 1-1:15 am eastern time online.

[Shaffield]

holy shit, 5$ for Rhythm Heaven Fever is incredible.

on the other hand, 10$ for Brutal Legend may be a bit pricey compared to some other outlets :P

[TheMan]

this whole buy now and price guarantee the next day is bullshit

only saying that cause i didn't do it myself and now the games i want are unavailable

[Wario64]

I think Best Buy used to have that for $5 in the past

[smurfx]

are they shipping games to local best buys just for this sale? or if you can't find it right now in store then its not going to be there?

[Like the hat?]

so if I add something to my cart now, would that help? also is it expected to be midnight pacific probably?

or if I do a pick up at store and pick it up tomorrow, will I only get charged the $5 for Rhythm Heaven Fever? It's showing as available in my local store.

[AGITΩ]

I wouldn't really recommend going in store for a lot of this stuff. This is really just clearing our inventory, I know the majority of those games arent even in stock in my store, mostly deleted sku's.

[Wario64]

Does Best Buy still offer free shipping even if a game is $5?

[Acrylic7]

accessories for me :)

[hunnies28]

How is the Wii version of Rayman Origins compared to the PS3 one? Thinking of getting the Wii version so I can play with my GF.

[hunnies28]

Meant at my GF's house. I don't think her dad will be kind enough to let me hook up my PS3 on his HDTV.

[Anticitizen One]

Tekken hybrid and Rayman for me

[DidntKnowJack]

My local BB sucks. Of all the titles listed in this sale, they have about a handful. I scoped it out today, but it was a bust. (And yes, I know it starts tomorrow.)

[HiiiLife]

I'm honestly surprised there is no BlazBlue or KoF on that list. They're fairly old are they not?

Edit: Even MvC3 Ultimate. Damn shame considering I want to get back into that game as well.
