For sure I am picking up Need For Speed: Most Wanted, but not sure what I should do for the other two games.
My potential choices:
Scribblenauts Assassin's Creed III Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Lego City Stories Walking Dead: Survival Instinct
What games are you going for? Keep in mind this sale applies to 3DS, 360 and PS3 as well.

Well, the free game will be Lego City if you are going to get one of those games as it is $50 and would be the lowest price game.

Nope. From Walmart's website:
We do not match the price in the following types of competitor ads: Buy one, get one free (BOGO) ads with no actual price given
As for games I would suggest, LEGO City Stories looks good and getting good reviews.

According to Target's website:
Sonic All Stars Racing is $40 Transformers is $45 Funky Barn is $50 Rabbids Land is $50 Batman is $50 Lego City is $50 Walking Dead is $50 COD: Blops 2 is $55
so there are some options to get this deal for less than $120

There's a separate Target deal on 3/24 (one day only) for $40 off any 3DS, including the Pika-nipple edition.

It's only a half-hour drive to Longview!
How do you know this? O_o
EDIT: They'll price match those 3DS price drops, though, right?
Your location is in your profile, and Google Maps provides the rest.
I think they would honor the $40 sale for 3DS systems. They will not match the $50 gift card offer though:

Damn, I really wanted to download NFS Most Wanted (if available in the eshop) since I haven't been putting that extra credit promotion to use, but this sale might just make me go disc with this one. My choices would be..
NFS, Lego City and...
3rd one is a tough call. I've been wanting to try Darksiders 2 but after that best buy sale (that I can't take advantage of) I figure other stores will follow suit and drop that one pretty low, even if temporarily, soon..
The only other game out there that I currently know of is Ninja Gaiden 3 which I'm still on the fence about. Maybe getting a game free will make me take the plunge on that one.

Looks like I'm not needed here. :D
Yeah, Walmart won't price match B1G1 deals usually. Now, sometimes Toys R Us does something like Buy One, Get One 40% off, then they show a bunch of games and put the regular price on them. Walmart *should* price match that, since the sale price of the games can be determined by looking at the ad. However, even I've had issues getting this to happen.
As for the Gift Card - officially, no, they won't price match that. However, if you get a nice manager, they might make an exception.

I usually don't have any trouble with Walmart's in my area price matching buy 2 get 1 free since those happen all the time--you'll just have to get an override and items will appear with 33% off sale/price adjustment next to them--meaning you can't return them for full value.
Wanted Fire Emblem but neither Target or Walmart has it in stock in my area :(.

Okay, I went to Target at lunch today and didn't see Need For Speed, Walking Dead, or Lego City. They had Monster Hunter and a label for Lego, but the space was empty. Maybe they just haven't put them out yet? I stopped there yesterday and they didn't have them either.
I will check after work then try the Target across town. If I strike out again, RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE

I was in a hurry. I will ask them when I get off work.
If Target doesn't work out, I will attempt to get Best Buy to price match the Origin NFS deal and get it and Lego for $80 total instead of three for $120 total.

Best Buy won't price match it. They only price match the prices of 19 specific websites, and EA/Origin is not one of them.

I seem to remember that Target's one of the few stores that can just sell you an eShop code. I wonder I they'd count that as part of the deal.

The first target I went to had no copies of Need for Speed shipped to them and had only nine copies of Lego City, which they were sold out of by 3:45pm on Tuesday.
I think Lego City is gonna be a crossover hit!

Man! Went to 4 Targets! Called another 2! Only one of them had a few copies of Lego. It and Monster Hunter were sold out everywhere! Not a single one even got their first shipment of NFS. Man I'm mad! I blame me for not calling first. If I miss this sale I'm gonna be pissed!

Even if they do, it won't do any good during the sale.
As for selling the uDraw tablets, that Target probably still has some unsold ones left over from when THQ originally shipped it.

I returned a copy of NFS to my local Target (Origin shipped my copy today :D )
I didn't even look for MH3 while I was there.... You want me to check for you?
according to the website, MH3 is only sold online and is not part of the B2G1 deal. So you would have to find it in-store to get the deal. Also NFS isn't available online....
I'll make a call really quick and see.
edit: NFS & LCU but no MH3 sorry :(

At this point I just want to see Lego and Monster in the same building. The free game could be castlevania or paper mario. I wouldn't be as mad if every employee didnt have the brains of krooked jerky choky who drives a crooked hos.

The two Targets I went to both had copies of Lego City: Undercover, but they informed me they were being held for preorders.
So now Target is turning into Gamestop...

I checked my email last night and saw that I had forgot about a pre-order I had put in at newegg for MH3U back in November during a promotion they had. Fortunately it was canceled due to being it out of stock, as I didn't want the game, but now that I think about it, I preordered 5 months ago, shouldn't I have been somewhere in the front of the line?
They need to move my pre-order discount to another game.... Wii Fit U maybe? I'm gonna have to look into that.

Well, just remember that with these types of sales, the free game is always the cheapest one. So if you pick Monster Hunter or Need for Speed, then Luigi's Mansion will be the "free" game.

I have lots of games I just stopped midway but now I have games I must complete. Fire Emblem, Luigi's Mansion, Batman, Lego City, and Monster Hunter 3. Not to mention I am trying to keep up my Tekken skill. Plus I can only really play when my daughter is asleep or with off tv play. I will not get a new game unless it's Pokemon X and Y until these are all beat.

I highlighted a big one. Unless you mean Single player. That is totally doable. If by beat you mean clear the "Story".
