Any remaining updates are unlikely to go up until closer to closing time. At this point, just lock in whatever you want and if stuff comes up later just request for it to be added to your order via CSR, unless enough stuff to qualify for the deal comes up.
Well I am pretty sure Persona 5 and SMT x FE aren't going up today on Amazon, which is fine I will pay the Atlus tax for those no problem. But locked in my haul didn't do too bad.

Alright, I am finally done ordering, because I don't think Persona 5 or Harvest Moon will be added. I ended up having to order two games from Best Buy.
Amazon: One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 (PS4)
Tearaway Unfolded (PS4) Super Mario Maker (Wii U) The Legend of Zelda: TriForce Heroes (3DS)
Mario Tennis Ultra Smash (Wii U) Yo-Kai Watch (3DS)
Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon (3DS)
Street Fighter V (PS4) Fire Emblem Fates (3DS)
Scalebound (XBONE)
ReCore (XBONE) Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam (3DS)
Horizon: Zero Dawn (PS4) Ratchet & Clank (PS4)
Digimon World Cyber Sleuth (PS4) Nier (PS4)
Final Fantasy VII Remake (PS4)
Best Buy/Future Shop 2013-2014: Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U) Star Wars Battlefront (PS4) Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U) Star Fox Zero (Wii U) The Legend of Zelda (Wii U)
Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem (Wii U) Kingdom Hearts III (PS4)
Final Fantasy XV (PS4)
Best Buy 2015:
Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe And The Blight Below (PS4) Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 (PS4)
The games in bold are the ones I am getting for sure. The other games range anywhere from likely to probably not. I don't even have an Xbox One yet, so the two games depend on if I get one this holiday. The italicized games are ones I am most likely to cancel or return. The total cost is $1,389.08 after taxes, or $51.45 per game.
Edit: And this is all Vita, 3DS or Wii U with a stray PS3 game from last year (Persona 5 yissssss). By the time I'm ready to get a Xbone or PS4 the games I'd care about will be $20 anyway.
Put in your orders at Amazon while you still can. Don't take the chance that a bunch of people try to do so near the end of the deal and Amazon.ca takes a shit.

Best Buy says they're ending their deal on the 18th but what time? 12 AM PST/EST?
they have the better game selection but with the dumb decision to use one-time codes, I can't screw up the last order. waiting at the last hour to make an order there
When does batman: Arkham knight switch to shipping status ? Was curious if I could preorder it today.. Check the reviews out for it on Friday/Saturday and then keep or cancel it..but maybe it goes into shipping status asap?
PC - Mass Effect: Andromeda (Origin prices their digital games at MSRP so might as well get a box)
3DS - Fire Emblem Fates (if this one defaults to Hoshido I'm gonna flip a table)
PSV - Superbeat Xonic (took contacting CS 4 times to get the discount but I did it)
PSV - Xblaze Lost Memories (pre-ordered the first one during the last E3 deal and enjoyed it, so why not)
PSV - Persona 4 Dancing All Night (didn't really want this but goofed and placed it in the same order as Superbeat, oh well)
PS3 - Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax (gotta support Sega for bringing this over)
Pre-ordered for keks
PSV - Corpse Party (still need to play the first 2)
Wii U - SMT X FE (what am I doing?)
Wii U - The Legend of Zelda (inb4 moved to NX)
PS4 - FF VII Remake (might come to PC but by 2020 I should have a PS4)
PS4 - Nier 2 (if this comes with an OST as a pre-order bonus I'm keeping it)
As long as it's Steamworks, you're good. Also, you should probably just wait and pre-order it later on since there's a chance it'll hit $30 USD from GMG or Nuuvem.

I wouldn't even have time to play half of those games. Ordering 14 games, I already question if I'll have enough time for them all. And the final price was still a bit much for me. Godspeed, I hope you can afford it with both your time and money.
To all the people saying to limit yourself, pay attention to the # of games releasing close to each other. The release dates on these games are anywhere from now until 2018. I think 70 games is a lot, but if he wants to order that many, good for him.
The release dates are all over the place so I mean if you have the time and the money for those then all the power to you buddy! Not like a lot are releasing super close to each other and that list extends for at least till 2017 maybe 2018 if stuff delays.
Has anyone ever had any problems cancelling an order with Amazon or Best Buy? I think I'll just order everything I'm curious about and cancel anything that starts looking bad.
Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem isn't available on Amazon by the looks of it, so I guess I'm stuck with Best Buy.
So long as you exercise restraint and cancel the vast majority that you don't actually want a week before release I don't see any problems here.
At the end of the day that $3,700 total will probably regress down to something like $500-600 spread across 3-4 years.

If the reviews are good, it'll go into shipping status late next week so you'll have to suffer through everyone raving about it on release day.
If the reviews are poor, it'll go into shipping status the moment the embargo lifts and drops a sub-70 Metacritic score in your face.

We're all joking around, but seriously Amazon's slow pre-order shipping actually saved me from playing Hometown Story. So sometimes it actually works FOR you!
As an aside, I just finished moving into my new place. Anything I should add/update on the spreadsheet? Didn't notice any new entries but I can update prices/availability.
Grabbed Superbeat Xonic and Dengeki Fighting Climax (PS3 for multiplayer) on Bestbuy as my last purchases. 11 games preordered, half of them don't even have release dates. Looking forward to JStars and Neptunia Rebirth 3 in two weeks.
Yeah, of course I'm going to cancel around 50% of these games. However my new moto since I forgot to preorder some games last year is: "Preorder now, cancel later".
I wish Knack 2 was in that list though, Sony please .
If I did not pre-order everything, my order would have been of around 20 games for sure:
Knack 2, Chibi Robo!, Dark Souls 3, Dishonored 2, Doom, Fallout 4, Ff15, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Super Mario Maker, Mass effect (which will release in 2019 at 120$ CAD!), Mirror's Edge, Plants Vs Zombies, Ratchet, Tomb Raider, Battlefront, Zelda, The Division, Uncharted 4, Xenoblade, Yoshi Wooly Land
Does anyone from Edmonton have any experience with Amazon Prime? Do you get your orders 1-2 days after release? Any times that its delivered on release?
I seem to get everything on or slightly before release, although games are more likely to come on release day (and if it's UPS, my guy on the west end comes consistently 5-6pm).
Movies usually come the week before with Prime. Last half a dozen releases all arrived on the Thursday prior to release. Go figure.
Well, I have no faith in Amazon to snap to it so I put my safety preorders down on Best Buy and am about to finalize the Amazon preorders. 23 items come to $1387 before tax and then $1097 after discount and tax. That's gonna get trimmed down by about $400-$500 or so.
No Persona 5 at all? Oh well I'd still buy at full price....
