I'm SO SO SO SO glad the 3DS XL is coming to the US. I'm SO SO SO SO SAD that i'm going to have to camp out to get one since I can't preorder. I NEED THIS THING.

Why can't you preorder? Isn't other retailers selling it?

 

[IHaveCandy]

I feel like their black friday ad is always a huge letdown.

$200 for a super slim ps3 and Last of Us and BATMAN AO is pretty dang good.

 

[Ricky_R]

Gamestop hiding Xbone's price, or am I blind?

 

[BFIB]

$200 for a super slim ps3 and Last of Us and BATMAN AO is pretty dang good.

Yep, buying this for my dad, along with GTA V.

 

[Soup Bar]

PS+ for 30 is pretty good, but there isn't really anything on there that would make me go to Gamestop at 3 am. I bought Forza Horizon during last years black friday for $15 at Walmart.

 

[Timeaisis]

Well, looks like I'll be grabbing PS +, Rayman Legends and holy crap Metroid Prime Trilogy $40! Sounds good to me!

 

[ShinoguTakeruKoeru]

I'm SO SO SO SO glad the 3DS XL is coming to the US. I'm SO SO SO SO SAD that i'm going to have to camp out to get one since I can't preorder. I NEED THIS THING.

Why can't you preorder? Are we unable to for this hardware, or is it against your principles?

 

[pushBAK]

Looks like Watch Dogs is a release title afterall

 

[akidnamededdy]

My fiancee accidentally broke the 3D slider on my blue XL the day before the ALBW XL was revealed...so now I can justify buying it! Woohoo!

 

[L~A]

Xenoblade and metroid drops are too good to pass up. I'm guessing their retro classics initiative didnt work like they expected.

Yup, it sure came back to bite them in the *ss. 90$ for a used game really is insane, and good thing nobody paid that much.

 

[GutsOfThor]

I'll take Dynasty warriors 8 and maybe even Deadpool.

 

[SpikedGunner]

$30 PS+ year sub, $20 Deadpool, $30 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes. If no one else is offering these deals, then I'm going to Gamestop on Black Friday.

 

[AlimNassor]

I'll bet you everything will be sold out instantly. That's how it always is with BF, everything is always sold out.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Oh! Don't you worry about stacking years of membership.

Oh damn. If that's the case...maybe 4 cards.

 

[isual]

cancelling BF4 for that price then, and probably picking up 2 1 year ps plus subs, and a ps4 too. xillia maybe even

I prefer the standard console over those damn bundles.

 

[tim.mbp]

To Zelda or not Zelda. Already have a red XL.

 

[BronsonLee]

Something of note;

Game price wise, if the last 5 or so years of Black Friday tradition continues, Gamestop's prices are probably 5$ higher than what everyone else will charge.

Not for everything though. But I expect 35 on the EA Sports games and 25 for Battlefield 4 elsewhere. Maybe 20 on Blacklist.

Oh, and the bundles they show here are the Black Friday bundles for everyone. So that nice PS3 bundle for 200, the purple PS3, and the 3DS bundles are going to be all over the place.

 

[Violence Jack]

Yep, PS+ sub is a must have.

I knew I should have sold my Metroid Prime Trilogy for $100 on eBay before this happened. Dammit.

Otherwise, Amazon and Best Buy I found to have the better game deals on Black Friday.

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

Why would anyone on console pay full price for BF4 now? Wait two weeks from PS4 launch or one week from Xbone.

 

[Off-Kilter]

Driveclub and Watch Dogs are on that ad.

Too soon

 

[spookyfish]

I really want the Luigi white and green 3DS XL. Come on, Nintendo, please don't disappoint me!

As do I -- I hope the Zelda one isn't a) GameStop exclusive or b) Black Friday only.

 

[mattp]

hows the ps+ stuff work?
is gamestop just gonna have a limited number of physical cards with codes? or do they just generate and sell codes in the store?

cuz im not gonna rush out at 5am and wait in a line for one of those cards, but if i can stroll into the store any time of the day and be guaranteed a ps+ code, i'd do that

 

[meltingparappa]

The hot tub is finally warm enough to jump in on a Wii U but there's not even an attempt at a deal.

Amazon set the bar way too high way that assassin's creed vita deal last year.

 

[purpletentacle]

Driveclub and Watch Dogs are on that ad.

Too soon

 

[Auron_Kale]

So glad I waited to buy Xillia, will be picking that up on BF as well as another PS+ card and probably Metroid Prime Trilogy. TWD on Vita is also kind of tempting.

I'd buy the Zelda 3DSXL bundle if I was in the market for another one, but I'm good with Pikachu.

 

[Concept17]

Xbox One's price not listed? Is that on purpose?

 

[meltingparappa]

Would be great if because the ad is for so far in the future, they looked into their crystal ball and decided which titles needed a bomba price cut around that time.

 

[squall211]

...Fuck...

And I'm anti-hyped for ALBW, too, so this really hurts me.

I am absolutely caving in and finally get a 3DS this holiday. There are too many games for it that I want for me to put off a purchase any longer. That Zelda 3DS looks absolutely amazin, but like you, I have no interest in the Zelda game. If I could get the 3DS separately, I'd be in heaven.

 

[pikablu]

lol @ the Jack and Daxter Ps3 that comes with 1 game being more than the PS3 that comes with 2 (newer) games.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

Definitely gotta stock up on Playstation Plus, guys.

I hope that price is also on their website. I'd definitely buy Plus from work then.

 

[Yasadril]

Xenoblade... 40$ holy crap

 

[Buddha Beam]

That's disappointing. I was hoping for a sub-$200 PS3 or cheap 2/3DS. Everything is MSRP, though.

 

[dookeh]

$10 Pre-owned universal HDMI cable here I come!

 

[Guevara]

$20 for Killzone Vita - Maybe.

$25 for Dishonored GOTY - Maybe

 

[Outtrigger888]

So I called gamestop, asking about the zelda 3ds, and he said if its in their black Friday ad, you pobably can't preorder. He also mentioned, when its gone, its gone FOREVER.

 

[Hoodbury]

$10 Pre-owned universal HDMI cable here I come!

monoprice.com

your welcome.

 

[SCReuter]

Doesn't look like North America is getting the NSMBU + NSLU Wii U bundle.

 

[pikablu]

It should also be probably noted that each gamestop will likely only have one copy of Xenoblade.

 

[EnVy_CaLiBeR]

Amazon will probably price match the $30 PS Plus card.

And when they do, I'll be there..

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Gonna buy several PS+ cards.

 

[Shinriji]

PS Plus sub, Killzone Mercenary and Walking Dead Vita will be mine!

 

[Bad_Boy]

PS+ cards on deck.

2 at the minimum. No need to get much more than that, I'm sure there will be another black friday deal like this again in the next 2 years.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Someone's credit card is gonna explode.

 

[Yukiari]

Only one Vita deal? I guess I'll just get a few ps+ cards instead.

 

[Owzers]

So I called gamestop, asking about the zelda 3ds, and he said if its in their black Friday ad, you pobably can't preorder. He also mentioned, when its gone, its gone FOREVER.

that seems iffy though, if the ad didn't say it was gamestop exclusive or black friday exclusive, i'm guessing it will be at other retailers and isn't up for pre-order because nintendo didn't announce it yet and it's just in a leaked ad.

 

[ohblahitsme]

Originally thought I would just go for Ragman Wii U but then saw the Xenoblade and Metro is Prime Trilogy prices. Arggg decisions. Regardless, this holiday season will be great!

 

[georly]

Why can't you preorder? Are we unable to for this hardware, or is it against your principles?

Black friday sales are typically not preorderable AT ALL. If they take preorders, they'll have none left for black friday, so putting it in the flyer would be a bad idea as it would upset customers coming to the store at 4 AM looking for one only to be told they should have preordered it. It's the way it worked every year for all the limited black friday bundles. I had to camp out for my normal zelda 3ds, as well as my DS. I also worked at gamestop for a while and that was the policy. First come, first served ON black friday.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Gonna try to get Metroid Prime Trilogy, PS Plus and something else.

Xenoblade is a steal for $40.

 

[graywolf323]

some really good deals to be had

I wonder if the ad will change before Black Friday though because right now both Watch Dogs and DriveClub are pictured

 

[Red_taiyaki]

Well shit. Looks like I'll be dropping a crapload of money at GameStop this year.

Wants:

Xillia, NNK, PSN+, FFXIV: ARR (PS3)

Will probably buy Beyond and LoU for my friend's Christmas present this year.
