Does anyone know if there are any good deals on e-readers?

If you can find a deal on a non Kindle reader, you'd benefit. As far as I know they still don't work with canadian libraries so you'll be locked into buying off Amazon or converting any ebooks using software/plugins like Calibre. I use a Kobo Aura and I like it.

Just had the weirdest thing happen. I got an email from amazon.com thanking me for a review that I didn't make on a product I didn't buy. Checked both my .ca and .com accounts and there's nothing in the order or review history, but on .com, there is a link to go to my "Amazon profile". Clicking that, it actually shows the review under "Community activity". Already contacted support which forwarded it to some department so who knows how they're going to handle it. Anyone experience something like this before?

So the product got updated from it's generic name with absolutely no information to a related product with info, pictures, Prime and fulfillment by Amazon. WTF Amazon. I'm gonna put on my tin-foil hat and say Amazon purposely hijacked its user's accounts to boost the rating of one of their sponsored products.

No Dominos for me. :(

Edit: Code here is 8710.

Hi. Nintendo announced a new Samus Edition New 3DS : http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1417084

I might me interested in this, and it says 'select retailers' in the announcement. Which Canadian retailers should I keep an eye on? I guess EBgames for sure but any others?
Thanks.

As a follow up to my quote above, I found the 3DS on Amazon but is says Currently unavailable : https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B074NDKDWR/

I have no experience with this kind of message on Amazon. What's the best way to go about finding out when pre-order opens? F5 I guess?

Edit : Ah, I looked again while signed in and I have the option to receive an email when it becomes available. I guess that's my best bet.

You better hope it's not popular or else it'll sell out before you get an email. The email doesn't go out right when it's available, it's usually many hours after the fact.

Well, I managed to get one of the games switched. It was WW2, which is the game I care about the most out of all the orders, so that works out well. Don't think I'll go through this trouble again to get the others changed, though.

I've been refreshing the Amazon.ca listing like a fiend. It's been there since about 10am today. I'd say if you want to cover your bases you should simultaneously be checking with local EBGames locations for instore preorders.

PSN doesn't even try to be competitive anymore sadly.

I makes buying it on steam seem much better, heck even hellblade is cheaper on steam and that just came out.

Yep. I really wish there would be a universal price here in Canada, it's super weird for non-$79.99 games being all sorts of prices on various platforms.

Any recommendations for buying decent quality sunglasses in store or online?

Broad question, I know, but I'm not too picky. Just don't want to shop at the Bay and find there was a cheap online store with the same stock...

preordering it just in case, but wow that price is madness

in comparison with the premium edition ($99.99), for an extra $160 you get:
- Season Pass
- artbook
- mini soundtrack cd
- Chibi Mechanical Rotating Diorama
- Lofty Plush
- The Making of Ni no Kuni II Blu-Ray
- a display case for the 3d papercraft

DEAL - EB Games - August 11-13


Get $50 when you trade in a Dualshock 4.

Get $30 for a PS3 controller.


Might be a good time to get rid of any old controllers you have lying around.
