Hot Deals for Canada...

There's no more Oot/MQ Zelda bonus available in Montréal.

I just went and called about a dozen stores, and they are all "sold-out" for the offer!

Do any of you guys know if Nintendo will ship more copies? Or was it a limited offer? (it's only been 4 days... And they only gived big name stores like WalMart 20 copies).
All consoles are great, but not all games.

It was limited edition, and everybody wanted a copy.  I think that you would have been pretty lucky to find a copy on the second day, as I noticed that the copies were going mighty fast in my area.  Sorry to tell you this, but I think you missed the boat.

Well a friend of mine got his copy yesterday in the ottawa region. And I just went and checked Zelda.com's site and they say that you get a copy of Oot/MQ if you preorder until march 16 (or 26, or whatever the release date is...). So, nowhere nintendo talks about a limited offer (except for time).

I went to the Walmart in Coquitlam/Bby today, and they had no signs of Skies of Arcadia Legends being in-store, let alone available for $39. Oh well...

Anyone interested in buying a copy for me from Ontario?

To Babble:

have you tried EB games at the "Centre les ailes de la mode" downtown Montréal ? That's where I got mine ... But I had pre-ordered WW with 20$, wich is the requirement.

To Reivned, Nope I didn't check there...

But, I finally got a copy Yesterday, I went to "Carrefour Laval" EB and ToysRUs didn't have it (well EB had some, but they were all pre-reserved. I don't get it, let's all pre-reserve the pre-reserve offer???). Finaly, I just walked by "ComputerCenter" and they had 8 copies on the shelf! I asked the clerck if all of those were reseved and he said no!

But, the clerck there was really not informed, he didn't know what the promo was, how to bill it and finally he told me he was gonna put aside the bonus disk until my copy of zelda TWW arrived! You can all guess I said no way!

Anyhow, if anyone in the Montréal region want's a copy go to ComputerCenter in Carrefour Laval, they had 7 left as of yesterday (Saurday the 22nd).

For the SNES controllers, check Wal Mart in Woodbridge. I saw a few there last week.

Hey, does anyone know where to get Beach Spikers cheap in the GTA? I know EBworld in the USA has it for 9.99, but shipping is 16.99! and since that is in US dollars, it equates to around 40 Canadian. Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get the game for MUCH less than that, thanks..

I went to my local EB. I saw the used prices on one SMS. However, the new prices were all still regular. What province are you in?

eOne, Perhaps the deal I am reffering to exists only in Ontario. You should ask if there will be any deals like that in the near future where you live, (One more thing, Im not sure about the rest of Ontario, but at least the Greater Toronto Area has this deal).
