What's with the misleading thread title?
It's a reference to a poster on the Best Buy forums listed in the OP claiming the deal is better than in previous years when it's clear as day to anyone else that it's not.
What's with the misleading thread title?
Don't give them ideas...lolOh god what if Amazon just doesn't do any E3 pre-order deals at all
Bestbuy? Yes. You can do that. Amazon? No idea but probably the sameCan you pay for these pre-orders with gift cards? I've got around $125
Oh god what if Amazon just doesn't do any E3 pre-order deals at all
They will most likely match BB 20% off but there's probably going to be some screw up like what happened last year.Oh god what if Amazon just doesn't do any E3 pre-order deals at all
So just to be clear, it just has to a be games that are preorders right, no minimum price the game has to be to qualify or anything like that? If so, I may end up preordering about 5 games or so. I know there are 3 for sure that I'll be getting with this deal.
I just hope they actually start listing more Vita and 3ds games.
Way too many stuff like Trails of Cold steel are completely mia on both Best buy and Amazon. For those types of games getting a deal at e3 is often the cheapest they'll ever get if you want a physical copy.
I'm not expecting squat from Amazon.
I don't expect to preorder much more than a handful of titles next week.
Matching the terrible Best Buy promo isn't exactly what I would call "Amazon saving us" or being optimistic... although I suppose it is a step up from my "not expecting squat" assessment.Every time Best Buy did their pre-order deal weekends this year, Amazon went and matched it, so I'm more optimistic.
They're pretty good about adding stuff, you can always tweet stuff at them if they miss things.
Trails of Cold Steel ps3 version is up, so the Vita version will likely go up in the next couple days

I wouldn't worry too much, the last couple years they have been impressively good at getting even the really niche stuff up on time to qualify for the promo, so I'm not too worried this yearSweet, I'm still not quite sure which version to get so it's nice to see they are starting to follow up on the requests I've been making on their forum

Still I'm a bit worried at how long some of these are taking to get up. The coupons are only good for 4 days and with the sheer amount of titles that are going to need to go up it's inevitable that some will slip through the cracks if they don't step it up a bit.
It's clear their attention has mainly been on listing next gen console games. Ps4 has 74 titles up for preorder while vita only has 9 despite the fact that there's been tons of Vita announcements lately. 3ds isn't much better at only 14 games, a good portion of which is shovel ware.
And that's just Best buy. Amazon should have more of this stuff listed too. Their American site does in some cases so their isn't much excuse for it not being listed on the Canadian site. Come on guys our handhelds need love too!!!!
What games were $49.99 at launch a couple of years ago? Jeez. Hopefully Amazon can swoop in and save the day, the Best Buy deal looks brutal. Doesn't Reward Zone have an annual fee as well?

someone check if the 30% code can be used more than once
I don't see anything indicating it can't be, but yeah, that would be good to know. Last code they had for a preorder discount I wasted by making a single order (as I thought I could just put a bunch through).

It can be. I have two separate orders right now, both with the 30% off coupon applied.Let's just hope the coupon can be used more than once. Either way it's better than what I was expecting.
