In addition to all the games already on sale, Geist and Metroid Prime 2 will be $9.98 at Toys 'R' Us tomorrow.

Should be good online, too - they apparently have over 999 of them in their inventory.

 

[demi]

Geist for 10 bux huh...I dunno...

I'll get it and return it somewhere else :tsc

 

[GoutPatrol]

I could pick up MP2...do you know if anything else will be going down tomorrow?

 

[Azure Dream]

Finally I can give Geist a shot. And Metroid Prime 2, I suppose, although the demo didn't do that much for me.

 

[Tarazet]

That's all that has been reported on CAG so far.

 

[StRaNgE]

crap, 10 bones?

only tomorrow though?

 

[Cold-Steel]

Stay away from Geist! Stay away!

If you love FPS you will avoid Geist at all costs!

Even as a Nintendo fan, I could not find anything redeeming about Geist

Spoiler

(except the multiplayer which is actually pretty fun but ONLY if you can get four people together to play it)

Give Geist a run guys. I bought it at launch and enjoyed the hell out of it. I will warn you that the first training area is a bit limp. But after you get your geist ability it really picks up. Just last week I was watching a couple of my friends play through the single player campaign. They got the game through gamefly and hell even I was a happy observer. There's something daffy and satisfying about the game's aesthetic presentation. It's the perfect case study of a game that shouldn't be as enjoyable as it is. Give it a try.

Should have made that more clear - I think those are permanent markdowns. I don't know. I'll look into it.

MORE - markdowns for 12/29.

Need for Speed: Underground Rivals 29.95

XBox
Advent Rising 29.95
Delta Force Black Hawk Down 29.95

[CajoleJuice]

OH SNAP

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE BUY THESE FOR ME, AND I WILL TRADE THEM GAMES OR PAY THEM?

I CANNOT PASS THIS UP. I NEED PRIME 2.

My head almost exploded when I saw that coming from a MAF avatar. :lol

 

[ruffles]

I'll look for Geist tomorrow. For 10 bucks, I can't pass this game up.

 

[demi]

Can someone buy it and just give me the Nintendo code?

 

[Tarazet]

Can someone buy it and just give me the Nintendo code?

I have several codes I can give you.. from my Micro, my copies of Mario & Luigi and Golden Sun, my copy of Pikmin 2..

 

[demi]

WHAT

dude hook me up plz

Tell me whatchu got

Did I ever tell you how much I appreciate the animal kingdom

I went there when I went down to Florida you know

 

[sykoex]

Geist for 10 bux huh...I dunno...

I'll get it and return it somewhere else :tsc

just wondering where they let you return opened games without a receipt for cash?

 

[demi]

I've got my methods.

If I can get Advent Rising to sell more than Psychonauts (oh wait, that was pretty easy to do - I even got a free copy out of it), I can do this

 

[Deleted member 284]

I know where I will be @ 10am tomorrow morning

Long Island is a Godsend

 

[demi]

HEY someone get me a fuckin RE4 if they see one

I'd be like grateful and stuff

oink

 

[distantmantra]

What time online will this start? Midnight EST, PST? Morning?

 

[Tarazet]

WHAT

I just told you what I got.. a bunch of Nintendo products I own, but have not registered and don't intend to..

 

[demi]

I just told you what I got.. a bunch of Nintendo products I own, but have not registered and don't intend to..

Well hook me up then!plz

I'll pick what I don't have, you can have the rest

 

[Tarazet]

Well hook me up then!plz

It's just what I listed.. that's all. I don't think Monster Rancher 2 Advance or FFIVA were published by Nintendo, were they? Same for VJ2, PN03, Lost Kingdoms, BG&E, Harvest Moon...

Maybe Paper Mario 64 has a reg. card.

 

[demi]

FFIVa has a Nintendo code, but I got that

If that's all you have then, I'll take the Micro code from you (serial #)

 

[demi]

Cooooool

The code worked, thanks Sonnnnny

 

[djtiesto]

I know where I will be @ 10am tomorrow morning

Long Island is a Godsend

So, you're the one buying all the good games before I have a chance to go :lol

 

[Kevtones]

I forgot how great MP2:echoes looks. Some of the best graphics this gen IMO (forget dark world!)

 

[Nester]

What time online will this start? Midnight EST, PST? Morning?

I need to work early tomorrow. Anyone know what time this should be starting online? Or when other Toys R Us promotions started online in the past?

 

[MrDaravon]

Online is hit or miss. Some of the other 9.98 games never dropped online, and the ones that did dropped over the course of like 2 days randomly.

 

[Kai]

Metroid Prime 2 is the best game this generation behind Resident Evil 4, Metroid Prime and Metal Gear Solid 3...

Do yourself a favor and buy Metroid Prime 2.

 

[PeachSmasher]

how much money did Nintendo lose on Geist?

 

[Ristamar]

Damn, I just snagged Pikmin 2 for $10. So $10 for Echoes? I'm there.

Now, c'mon, Mario Tennis and Paper Mario 2! Hit that $10 sweet spot!

 

[jamesinclair]

Godamnit, I wont even have my GC back until May, and I dont like FPSers....but Im sold.

 

[jamesinclair]

I need help:

I suck at FPSers. Which one is more forgiving for a newb that likes to die?

 

[Thraktor]

You do not get deals like that over here, I'll tell you that (I saw Condemned for €82.99 the other day [that's $98.50] but that's another story altogether).

Anyways, anyone want to pick these up and send them off to Ireland for me? I'll give you suitable dispensation for your troubles...

 

[GoutPatrol]

Wait...are all the other games still 10 bucks as well? I'm getting mixed signals...

 

[Kon Tiki]

List Price: $49.99
Price: $19.99
You Save: $30.00 (60%)

So is it going to drop another $10?

 

[Mejilan]

Geist is a much, much, much, much, MUCH easier (and equally, just as crappier) fps experience than MP2e.

Update posted to the thread:

EDIT 8:There was a big screwup on my part. I listed Geist, Metroid Prime 2, Bomberman DS and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory as dropping to 9.98 today. I know that they appeared on the list but I made UPC scans of those four games and went to my TRU this morning to put them under the price checker. Geist, Bomberman DS, and Splinter Cell DS all came up regular price and Metroid Prime 2 came up with the sale price of 19.95 was 49.99...ends 1/31. I would like to apologize to anyone that bought these games earlier based on my information. I should have verified this before I posted it. So again these four games will not drop to 9.98.

Good thing I checked before leaving.

 

[PeachSmasher]

damnit, and to think i got up extra early to get Bomberman and Geist for 10 bux each, damnit!!!

 

[StRaNgE]

i would suggest Metroid, it does not play like a typical FPS. it has a lock on feature and all. If you are sick of light and dark worlds then i would recomend getting Prime 1 over 2 otherwise it's a must play. specially for 10 bones.

 

[Tarazet]

Oh well, one less shitty game to play.

 

[Wario64]

Haw haw.
