Don't buy enough of those for it to matter for me.

[Ardrial]

Depending what you buy, the Best Buy thing can still be significantly cheaper. Obviously new titles will be competitive, but BB is fantastic about niche older titles. Things like Nier, Drakengard 3, Resonance of Fate, White Knight Chronicles 1/2, Tales of Vesperia, and a whole bunch of other stuff are generally 20-30 on Amazon (50 for WKC2), and 10 on Best Buy. Luckily they're so much cheaper that it's still better even without their gamer club card.

I agree. Amazon doesn't do anything past 2 weeks old. But I'm going to be doing every single pre-order or new purchase through Amazon from now on. Free same-day delivery, no taxes (in my state) and 20% off. Yesplz

[Kaisha]

Of course amazon.ca won't do it

We can't have Amazon Prime be a valuable asset in Canada that's worth actually subscribing to now.

Would have been fucking fantastic up here given new games costs $92 after taxes for me which is ludicrous.

[Anoat]

This has reminded me that I need to cancel my free Prime membership before I get charged the $99. Just in time, too, it was going to charge me at midnight. Whew.

[Prothescar]

fyi the 20% off works on Collector's Editions too. for example can get the Dark Souls III CE for $104 rather than $130

It's a shame that the Amazon pre-order costume for SF5 is the worst of the 4 (Bison). I'm very intensely debating whether it's worth $12 or not.

Use the money saved to just buy the costume you want when it's released?

[TheDirtyHobo]

They're apparently "retailer-exclusive." I'm not sure if that means they'll never be for general sale (given Capcom's money grubbing, I doubt it), but I'm just paranoid enough to wait, but too lazy to do more research.

[Kirin]

Nevermind, the Amazon Prime stuff was already posted.

The Dissidia 012 costumes never did. GS had the KH Cloud, Amazon had the Red Tifa, and BB had one.

Was there an email I missed for the amazon prime stuff?

I use the shit out of prime, the movies, the shipping, the music, the books and this just made it so much better, esp for expensive collector's items

Interesting really, 5 game mystery box for $7. See what you get.

[Tyrath]

Meh, did it YOLO. Got shit

Bridge Constructor (only one I might try)
Skara Starter pack (fucking F2P game)
Return Null EP1 (fucking 1 ep)
Shattered Haven (looks bad, puzzle game)
Quest Run (has terrible reviews)

[TheDirtyHobo]

Fuck that shit. I looked into it when it first started, the tables on it are bullshit. 89% chance of greenlit trash, 10% chance of something decent but cheap like Bridge Constructor or Sun and Moon, 1% of something expensive (BlOps3 is the only one I remember offhand).

[myreality]

I got shit as well.

Quest Run
Zack Zero
Return Null - Episode 1
Skara - The blade remains
Bridge Constructor
