Title: Target to Sell Dragon Quest IX at Bargain Price
Post by: NWR_pap64 on November 11, 2010, 03:25:19 PM

Dragon Quest IX is one of many Black Friday deals.

According to a leaked Target Black Friday ad, Dragon Quest IX for the DS will be available at a bargain price. Players who have not obtained the RPG title will be able to do so at $17. Another Square Enix title, Final Fantasy XIII for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, will be sold at the same price.

$17 I would hardly qualify as "bargain" but its a nice deal. I still have 3 other RPGs to take down on the DS as it is though, so I'll hold off.

an advantageous purchase, esp. one acquired at less than the usual cost: The sale offered bargains galore.

I'm of the opinion that if one word can substitute two then it should be used.

I thought full price was a nice deal (since I've logged about 200 hours). I think $17 is a bargain.

xcwarrior, over half off any game is a bargain (yet alone on a game considered one of the best RPG's on the DS). I am conflicted, I would love to get the game for this price but I don't want to support them for political reasons.

for political reasons

Target probably isn't making money on that sale, this is your chance to strike back.

As little time as I've actually played DQ IX, I kind of wish I had waited for a sale like this...
