Yup. I can't say I was surprised--store's ghetto as Hell.

A couple quick questions:
Is this at regular Blockbuster stores or just the ones with the Game Rush add-ons?
Any idea how long the sale lasts?

The 2 stores in my area are the normal stores and both have these sales.

As long as the store is corporate owned, franchise stores have their own wacky rules.

OMG guys, you better get on this before they decide to raise the price back up! D=

Anyone ever heard of the Retro Duo Twin NES and SNES Console? If this thing actually works, it seems like a pretty good deal, forty bones for 2 systems in 1.

I've heard of it but I have never used one. The consensus seems to be that it works decently, but not as well as the official systems. I think there are a small number of games which don't work on it, and also the controllers are cheaply made and break easily.

EDIT: A bit more on topic, here's Best Buy's deal of the week which starts today.
Guitar Hero Aerosmith (game only): $10
Guitar Hero III (game only): $10

Available both in-store and online.

Your thread title fails for lack of specificity, which means, UNFORTUNATELY FOR YOU, that my post preempts your thread.

Sorry Flames, better luck next time!

ok, ok... I know... you win. =(

I think I'm going to pick up Strikers and Sluggers at $15 each at Blockbuster just for the Club Nintendo coins. I wonder how much I can get on those for trade-in?

Picked up a NEW copy of Kirby Superstar Ultra for $20 at Blockbuster. Alright!

They'd be worth more if you kept them sealed, though then you wouldn't be able to get the codes.
GameStop sells Mario Sluggers for $45 used and Mario Strikers is $40 used, so if you took store credit then they might give you $20 and $15, respectively. Not really worth it just for Cub Nintendo coins. You could probably do better on eBay though.

Mario Sluggers is a good game though, why not keep it at that price? I'm not fond of Mario Strikers myself but it is still something you might want to try out, especially at that price.

Amazon's VG DotD is Rune Factory: Frontier for $29.98.

Just picked up the Wireless sensor bar by Nyko at Best Buy for 10 bones. I'll let you know how it works.

Update: Meh, its definitely stronger and gives off a signal with less jutter, but still not perfect. Still glad I got it though, as it does help, and my Wii is surrounded by four giant sun filled windows.

GTA Chinatown Wars is 20 at Best Buy.

****, that can't speak well for ... something something.

Had crap luck with Nyko's Wireless Bar myself. Ate batteries like you wouldn't believe (though the red light was on but the signal strengh was laughable).

GTA Chinatown wars (DS) is on sale for $20 bucks (great deal IMO) at Bestbuy.

I found a few goodies at Blockbuster too:
Professor Layton (DS) for $10 (I bought mine months ago for $30)
Advance Wars Day of Ruin (DS) $15
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time (Ds) $20
Chrono Trigger (DS) $20
Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution (DS) $15
The World End's with You (DS) $15 (I freaking missed this one--they had one copy only and I went to talk with one employee and turned around it was GONE!!!)

Also of note in the Best Buy sale this week... Naked Brothers for $9.99, with Logitech microphone included.

That's a $25-30 microphone by itself, from what I've seen on Amazon/Newegg. Works with GH:WT, RB1, RB2, GH:M, and probably any other karaoke/voice game.

If you already had guitars and got game only, a sweet deal to pick up a mic. And FYI, Gamestop is currently giving $5 store credit for the game only. So I really got a $5 microphone, and put a reserve down for Tiger Woods.

Ebgames had Final Fantasy III (DS) for $15 and Final Fantasy Tactics A2(DS) for $20. Great deals on two great games.
