[ElectricBlanketFire]

$29 feels so right for NSMB2.

 

[Fantastical]

Damn if these summer PC sales weren't cleaning out my wallet I would so be on that Kingdom Hearts deal.

Maybe I'll get it anyways.

 

[sorijealut]

Wow, hop on?!

 

[impact]

bomba

 

[Oni Link 666]

$10 isn't worth getting NSMB2 two or more days after it comes out.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Nice, but personally I have no interest in Kingdom Hearts, and will most likely be downloading NSMB2.

 

[Jinfash]

I'm on the fence on NSMB2, but $30 is an excellent price for a high-profile SE game. Too good to pass up for day-1 buyers.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

$10 isn't worth getting NSMB2 two or more days after it comes out.

I beg to differ.

 

[dallow_bg]

I guess ya'll missed the $10 off any preorder deal from them a few days ago?
I preordered 9 3DS and Vita titles. $30 is the right price.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

$10 isn't worth getting NSMB2 two or more days after it comes out.

Do you have to play it the day it comes out?

 

[Oni Link 666]

Do you have to play it the day it comes out?

Yes.

 

[MichaelEM3]

Since I'm stuck waiting on the 3DS XL until I can even play Kingdom Hearts, this deal is perfect for me. Thanks, earvcunanan.

 

[Instro]

Hm, I might jump in on KH at least. I can't remember does Newegg charge immediately, or when the item ships?

 

[Vamphuntr]

meh, I got my KH 3D preordered for 20$ at Future Shop like two weeks ago.

 

[Fantastical]

Yes.

Then just play the DS one. Basically the same thing, right?

meh, I got my KH 3D preordered for 20$ at Future Shop like two weeks ago.

What is this sorcery?

 

[Vamphuntr]

What is this sorcery?

Tsilon members had promo codes to take 20$ off of any E3 preorder games (up to 10 games) at Future Shop. So basically you could preorder RE6 for 40$, KH 3D for 20$, etc

Damn you Canadians. That's a great deal.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Great deals, but I really want to go digital for NSMB2. Damn these online deeeeeeeals!

 

[linkeurena]

They charge when it ships.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Is there a reason why people want to go digital vs physical with NSMB2? Are there some sort of perks for doing so? I'm curious.

Bring the game around with you anywhere you go without the cart, basically. For me, that's not worth going digital, but for many it is. Personally, there is no way in hell I would pay $40 for a 3DS game without the chance for resell, but that's just me.

I'm a huge Nintendo fan but do not trust them at all when it comes to dd.

Physical all the way for now.

 

[sorijealut]

Perhaps lack of interest, not worth physical packaging? lol I wonder why also.

 

[matthwq]

The ability to just load it up without having to switch out cartridges, and while on the go, is pretty nice.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

For me, not having to spend the equivalent of $70US to get the game.

 

[Drago]

Would I be able to preorder now and apply the codes later?

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Would I be able to preorder now and apply the codes later?

I'm not sure if you can, but you'll have all day to pre-order tomorrow. It's a 24-hour deal.

 

[Mrbob]

In for NSMB2. I want that FF music game too would love to see it go on sale.

 

[Drago]

I'm not sure if you can, but you'll have all day to pre-order tomorrow. It's a 24-hour deal.

Ok, thanks. It's a great deal and I didn't want to miss it
Any chance of them doing this for other games (LM, PM, CV, etc.)? How often are these deals?

What are those? Newegg has been doing these pre-order deals quite a lot lately.

They recently just had a $10 off all $39.99 games and up deal and before that, $12 off select pre-orders. That was stellar.

Luigis Mansion, Paper Mario, Castlevania

And that sounds like a great deal that I missed. Oh well, maybe next time

 

[CookedChocobo]

Oooooo

$10 off of high profile games? Seems too good to miss.

 

[Busaiku]

Dang, should've paid attention to the first line before freaking out.

 

[KillerTravis]

For me, not having to spend the equivalent of $70US to get the game.

You and me both then. Latin America as well?

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

Any chance Amazon might do something to price match this? I'd like to keep my preorder for KH with them, but if they don't then I'll get it from NewEgg.

They didn't on Theatrhythm when Newegg had a similar sale

Edit: I am stupid, yes they did.

 

[Nintendo Playstation]

Thanks earvcunanan! I got my preorder set up for NSMB2. $30 is a great price and I don't need to play it the Sunday it comes out.

 

[abstract alien]

I really wanted to get this digitally, but I might bite...

 

[big black woman]

Thanks! NSMB2 will be mine.

 

[dwu8991]

go digital if you can

much better than wasting time switching cards

 

[Winnie the Pimp]

go digital if you can

this time games are tied to an account not a system right?

i don't own a 3DS yet but when i do i will probably go digital as well if the above is true!

 

[Byronic Hero]

Did this when it was offered two months ago. Also got the same deal when Tales of Graces F came out (-$10). I'm starting to love Newegg.

If they can do this for Sly 4 & PSASBR, I'll be one happy customer.

 

[Electivirus]

Nice deals, but I'm going digital with NSMB2 (and every possible first-party 3DS offering from now on), and I'm getting the Mark of Mastery edition for KH3D, so...

 

[abstract alien]

go digital if you can

Yeah, I'm thinking the extra cash saved isn't worth the loss of having this game on my system where ever I go, no matter what. Can't wait to get Fire Emblem digitally as well! Good sale though.

 

[KingOfReading]

Thank you so much for posting this! I just got Kingdom Hearts for my sister. I've played through the Japanese version, and it's great.

The best part is I had a random $20 gift card for NewEgg from a recent computer build, so I ended up getting the game for $10 shipped

 

[BassForever]

Would do this if I wasn't getting the collectors edition of KHDD, will do for NSMB2

 

[TSAGoodness]

Says 39.99 on the site?

 

[Jaded Alyx]

You and me both then. Latin America as well?

Yeh, Caribbean to be more accurate.

Shipping and customs fees can be a bitch.

 

[chaosblade]

Says 39.99 on the site?

You have to put in the promo code. And the codes are tied to your account/email subscription, so if you don't get their promotional emails the code isn't valid for your account. But I think you can just subscribe and the codes will work.

Anyway, bit on Mario.
