GameStop Stores has cheezeburger?

 

[Podge293]

Switch is a great machine but that seems a bad deal to me.

Still I'd recommend getting it. Good fun. Zelda is great

 

[DR2K]

Walmart in Houston got inventory today and started selling them. Stores got in 10-20

 

[Some Nobody]

You gave up your PS4 AND XB1 to buy a Switch?? ...Do you have a Pro?

 

[bananafactory]

Is this US only or Canada too?

 

[Living the Dream]

You gave up your PS4 to buy a Switch?? ...Do you have a Pro?

Will eventually. Figured $200 for OG was a great value

You're doing it wrong.

 

[13ruce]

Did they also restock on Zelda?

 

[JosephManderley]

I love my Switch, but if someone gave me a PS4 and an Xbox1 as well, they could have mine!

Seriously - enjoy your new console.

 

[Living the Dream]

Did they also restock on Zelda?

Yup

 

[BFIB]

Did they also restock on Zelda?

I've seen plenty of copies in the wild.

 

[chronic_archaic]

You're doing it wrong.

Those are the normal rates for those consoles these days, surprised they're giving that much.

 

[BadAss2961]

Give up two more capable consoles for a Zelda machine.

The switch (Zelda) is awesome....but I couldn't do that, haha.

I'll let my brother know though, he's been talking about a Switch purchase.

 

[BennyBlanco]

$200 for a regular ps4 is pretty decent value. I paid $300 for it new and it came with TLOU.

 

[BroBot]

You traded BOTH consoles? As long as you're a Zelda fan, you should be content.

 

[Serenitynow]

That shouldn't matter. I've personally spent more time with and have had more fun with Zelda than any game on my PS4. People value games differently.

Anyways, nice to hear restocks are happening. Did I hear somewhere that Nintendo's new target for March is 2.5 mil as opposed to just 2 mil?

 

[Interfectum]

I love how the main focus of the thread is what he traded in for the system.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I wish they had this deal in Germany. They give you 150 bucks for 3DS, in Germany 100€ instore credit for a n3ds...

 

[DecoReturns]

200 for a regualr PS4 sounds like a great deal honestly.

They are like 250 at the moment with a game

 

[Zedark]

Any word on the Pro controller? Did they restock that as well or is it still MIA?

 

[shandy706]

I love how the main focus of the thread is what he traded in for the system.

That's because a lot of us like to buy all the systems.....and have them all at once. I couldn't give either up for a Switch, I'd just buy it too in that scenario.

Spoiler

Well..I guess some could just not like the Switch...but I can only speak for myself. Also, $200 for a PS4 would basically be getting (more than) what I paid for one new right back...so that's a good deal if I didn't want it.

How did you get 200 for it? I see 150 on their site. I would love to dump my OG PS4 as I haven't used it since I bought it.

Also would dump my Vita too.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Not about to do this but those are pretty good trade in prices for the consoles. Not sure how they make money giving you $200 on a used OG PS4.

 

[DMONKUMA]

I could have sworn they gave you $150 for OG PS4 or is it $200 since you were trading it in towards a Switch?

 

[sixteen-bit]

You're doing it wrong.

Circle of Life, breh

Even as a huge Nintendo fan I gotta say...dude

 

[Servbot24]

You traded in 2 systems with tons of games for 1 system that has basically 1 game?

Does look like a pretty sweet game to be fair

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I love how the main focus of the thread is what he traded in for the system.

It's my Zelda machine until Splatoon comes out. I would not give up my PS4 or PC for a switch

 

[Aaron D.]

Guess I'll just never forgive myself for trading in my SNES and game collection for an OG Playstation that broke on me 2 months later.

I paid 550$ total for zelda (not including amiibos), and its so worth.

I really wish you could check stock online.

I'm guessing the OP ain't about that 3rd party support life

The switch is cool, but not worth trading in both ps4 and xbox one.

 

[Mael]

This is getting released next month.

I got one recently for a present for $250 w/ an extra controller via NewEgg's Ebay deal. ~200 is the real MSRP right now. (BBuy had a 250 + $50 GC over the Holidays)

 

[Living the Dream]

I could have sworn they gave you $150 for OG PS4 or is it $200 since you were trading it in towards a Switch?

They upped all trade in values. Doesn't have to be toward a switch. I could have just put $375 on a gift card

 

[BitStyle]

I love how the main focus of the thread is what he traded in for the system.

Especially since he implies that he's upgrading to a PS4 Pro later on.

Thanks for the heads up, OP! Will notify some friends who have been searching

 

[The Horror the horror]

I should have taken advantage of that Wii U trade-in deal last month.

 

[Kill3r7]

OP are you in the west coast?

 

[Caja 117]

I will see if I find one and get it! Keeping finger crossed because I dont get out until 2 more hours.

 

[Jawbreaker]

$200 is pretty damn good for an OG PS4. The downside is you have to use GameStop.

 

[koss424]

Give up two more capable consoles for a Zelda machine.

neither are portables.

 

[13ruce]

Great trade value for ps4 and the xbox what's bad about it? He can buy a pro later + Xbox has no first party games this year anyway (i partly kid but it's bad this year compared to PC/Ps4 and Switch and this is one of the best gaming years ever wich makes it more sad for xbox)

 

[mattwhite924]

I adore my Switch, but giving up both the PS4 and X1 seems nuts to me. But hey, if you're enjoying it then more power to you.

 

[DMONKUMA]

Huh...if that's the case they haven't updated their trade-in values online. Either way it's a good deal since OGs go for $250 now. Not bad.

 

[Stoof]

Any sign of the Pro Controllers?
