Best Buy is selling these 3DS games for $20 during the week of 8/21-8/27:

Sims 3
Madden Football
Punch Time Explosion
Dead or Alive Dimensions
Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars
Rabbids Travel Time 3D
Resident Evil the Mercenaries 3D

They are also offering gift cards for trade-ins on the DS. $50 for the Lite, $75 for the DSi, and $100 for the XL.

Not too bad, especially for RE, DoA, and Ghost Recon. I know Ghost Recon was $17 at Target recently but $20 is still a great deal for the game. If you don't have it I suggest you get on it!

I'm thinking about picking up RE but I don't know if I would get $20 of enjoyment out of it.

 

[Neuromancer]

Ghost Recon is definitely worth $20. Can't speak to the others.

 

[Tagg9]

Would have snapped if any Nintendo titles were included (but of course they aren't).

 

[jackdoe]

Nice, $20 was how much I was willing to spend on DOA. Thinking about Mercenaries, but it's really a glorified mini-game, of which I've had my fill from RE5.

 

[NateDrake]

Dead or Alive and RE: Mercs are worth $20 without question. Just check impressions of Mercs in the game's OT. People have put in over 100 hours into it and still play daily. It may be a glorified mini-game but it is addicting.

 

[gatti-man]

dang re mercenaries for $20. But I loathe best buy

Get DOA Dimensions guys. I'm loving it.

 

[Insaniac]

i might have to pick up mercs now, also does ghost recon have any multi?

Ghost Recon is better than any Nintendo title sans Ocarina of Time on the system.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Only on the same 3DS where you pass it around. The campaign is 30+ hours, though (and very fun).

 

[Fantastical]

Mercs 3D is so bought. Hopefully Amazon matches because I have like $50 credit, but if not I'll head over to Best Buy.

 

[PSGames]

Resident Evil surprised me with how fun it is and how great it looks. It looks amazing in 3D and the gameplay works great for a portable device. The controls are quite responsive as well. At $20 you can't go wrong.

 

[Persona7]

This is why Nintendo has always been at odds with Third parties.

 

[Wario64]

Toys R Us has a buy any game for $10 when you buy a 3DS deal.

 

[LiK]

Always bet on Ghost Recon

 

[BocoDragon]

Any StreetPass stuff in Mercs?

 

[PBalfredo]

Even though I'm not picking up a 3DS until the Flame Red version comes out next month, I might grab Mercenaries at that price.

 

[Father_Brain]

Huh, will actually consider buying Mercenaries at that price. Which it really should have been sold at to begin with.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Ghost Recon is definitely worth $20. Can't speak to the others.

This.

 

[Piercedveil]

Might have to get Ghost Recon finally.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

All of you guys picking up Ghost Recon should head over to the OT once you get started, I never get tired of talking about that game for some reason.

 

[Rodney McKay]

Grrr, I'm waiting for Street Fighter to drop to $20. Cheapest I've seen that is $30.

Never real played fighters before so I'd like to try out SF4 for cheap to see if i can get into them.

(I hope I can because I'm dieing to get Mortal Kombat for the Vita when that comes out!)

 

[Boney]

DOA and Mercenaries are worth the price for sure.

Having a blast with them, especially mercs.

Any StreetPass stuff in Mercs?

None.

 

[BocoDragon]

None.

LAME!

Still might bite, though.... need me some more 3DS content besides DOA. Hope there's a similar sale in Canada.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Is DOA worth it?

 

[Izayoi]

Is DOA worth it?

Most definitely.

 

[BocoDragon]

Is DOA worth it?

I'm enjoying it a lot, yeah.

 

[AbsoluteZero]

Darn, was hoping to blow that $10 RZ Cert. on Ridge Racer.

 

[pvpness]

This is why Nintendo has always been at odds with Third parties.

Lol. What?

I wonder if best buy will take a broken pink ds trade in. Absurd, I know. Do they test their systems? I'm assuming they do but wouldn't mind knowing for sure. I'd pick up DOA and RE for $20 trade in bones though. That seems worth it.

 

[mr_chun]

Mercs, DoA, and Ghost Recon are easily worth that price of admission. I recommend all of them.

 

[Freezie KO]

I didn't feel like driving across town to pick up Ghost Recon at a Target, so I may bite on this.

 

[Bryan1321]

Great!


Do they ship to mexico???????

 

[depward]

Mercs is recommendable for $20. $40 is a bit harder to recommend, but half the price is worth it.

 

[Fantastical]

I sent Amazon the lower price so hopefully they will price match. Doubt it but maybe!

 

[Wario64]

I sent Amazon the lower price so hopefully they will price match. Doubt it but maybe!

They probably will but later in the week probably if they do

 

[Neiteio]

Well shit. Guess it's time to buy Mercs.

My head's exploding from all the games.

 

[Takao]

I'd buy:

Resident Evil The Mercenaries 3D
Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion

and maybe DoA.

But lol Canada.

 

[BiggNife]

Man I wish SSF4 was on that list

Also fuck I just spent $40 on DOA a week and a half ago

 

[kunonabi]

I refuse to pay full price for Mercs but I can get behind 20 bucks.

 

[Teknoman]

Resident Evil Mercenaries is tons of fun and you should buy it at that price.

 

[DidntKnowJack]

I think Mercs is worth $20. I agree it sounds really stripped down, but it's actually a lot of fun. I was pleasantly surprised.

 

[catmincer]

I have Mercs, GR and DOA

All 3 are worth $20.

 

[Teknoman]

Yeah DOA is actually pretty fun.

 

[thefit]

FYI was shopping for my kids b-day gift today and the 60gig live starter kits are being liquidated at sears for $16.97

 

[gotee12]

I'm loving DOA far more than I thought I would. And collecting figurines has become a bit addictive.

 

[TheBaldEmperor]

Mercs, DoA, and Ghost Recon are easily worth that price of admission. I recommend all of them.

I can't agree with this enough.

 

[Community Forum]

Actually, this is pretty awesome. Three games for the price of ONE PS360 game. All games should be $20, I'd buy the shit out of them.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

This is why Nintendo has always been at odds with Third parties.

Kind of funny, because in Canada for the past few weeks it's been Pilotwings, Steel Diver, and Nintendogs + Cats on sale for $20 or BOGO. :lol

 

[cartman414]

Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion

Still can't get my mind off of Yuri Lowenthal doing Numbuh One and Flapjack for this game.
