This CAG rumor is looking true.  If you're planning to buy a game, may be worthwhile to wait till Sunday and stock up.

We need to get a release list around here so we know whats good that is out and whats coming out in that time frame that's worth waiting for.  That goes for all systems by the way.

Someone should start a thread about upcoming releases for all systems and update it weekly.

Books are usually about $5 or so. I usually just add a book on my order if its just below $25. CDs or DVDs will also do the trick. Heck, you can even buy groceries on Amazon, and some of that is even applicable towards free shipping. Finding something to buy on there is never a problem, but finding something worth buying might be.

Those are the only pre-orders that work.  Any Wii or DS game that is already released is included.

Very cool, at Amazon discount prices to for the games (nice selection of eligible games too!).

I put 3 eligible games in my cart and the discount wasn't applied during the place order screen. I wonder if they need to be on the same system?

I did a mix of two DS and one Wii game.  It didn't show up in cart, but when I went to the "place order" screen and could choose shipping, the discount was applied.

Do you still get the Van Halen game with GH5 if you order it on Amazon? I want to get three full priced games so I'm getting the best deal on the free one (better to get it on a $50 game than a $20-30game, right?)

That promo expired at the end of September.

Oops... Well, I was never terribly interested in that one. I'm never interested in the band specific releases because I prefer variety. Plus you can usually get them cheap down the road if there were songs you liked on the disc.

I bought nine games at Toys "R" Us today, some for me, some for family.  I checked Amazon's posted games, and couldn't find three sets of games in any consistent price range, and the discounts weren't high enough otherwise.

The games:
Resident Evil 5 (Sister and Bro.-in-law haven't played any RE, but like horror, so should enjoy it, I hope)
Beatles Rock Band Wii (Not worth $60 to me, but B2G1 makes it worth it)
Katamari Forever (For when my roommate gets his PS3)

Guitar Hero Metallica (Again, not worth normal full price)
TMNT: Smash Up (See above)
A Boy and His Blob (Hopefully good and worth full price :D)

Rock Band 2
Rock Band Country Track Pack (My Mother's wanted this a lot)
Wii Fit Plus (Other sister is a Wii Fit maniac)

All-in-all, I saved about $100 off the retail prices of these games, so I'm happy.

Additionally, the Toys "R" Us guy said something interesting about the return policy:  45 days, but you have to exchange all three games.  Essentially, you can get three "$XX," and if something comes out in the next 45 days, you should be able to take those games back and get the new ones.  Don't take my word on it, I'm just restating what he said.  So while you can't do pre-order games, you should be able to get those games coming out later.

My roommate and I are thinking about going in for NSMBWii, buying two $50 games, getting the third free, and whomever gets the free third game just pays half price to the other one.  We're gonna call and get clarification on that return, though.

Actually, most of those are Christmas gifts from me or to me.  I spoke with my mother about the deal, and she just said to pick out a few things.  That, with NSMB and FF:CC should have me more than set for about half a year.

When having a girlfriend means most of your extra money is spent on her and not yourself, it hurts your gaming groove. I would be cashing in on this deal like thatguy if I didn't know I'd probably be spending money on my gf instead.
