Super Mario Sunshine deals?

Ok, so the week of SMS is upon us. I see that Best Buy really doesn't have that great of deal on it this weak (get 25 bucks if you buy it with a GC...that's great if you don't already own a GC i guess), so I'm wondering if ANY places have good deals on it this week.

I still have my copy pre-ordered at Toys-r-us, but I wanted to make sure that this is the deal to go with.

Is Circuit City, Target, or Walmart doing anything?

I didn't hear of any stores besides Toys R Us doing anything. And the only real deal I've seen is the one Nintendo is offering.

Circuit City and target both have it advertised for $49.99. You get a free Prima game guide at Circuit City.

Free game guide isn't too bad of a deal. I don't want a game guide though, b/c I'd be tempted to use it...and then the game would be over too quickly.

I'll stick with my free towel.
Thanks for the info though.

I'm gonna go for the Towel Deal at Toys R Us. I waited to see if any deals would pop up but it's getting into crunch time so I gotta spring now to make sure I can get a copy of this game before they're all sold out. My EB and Gamespot are all ready sold out in preorders.

Just a heads up to other people, Meijer's Midwest retail chain) sent out $5.00 off any Gamecube Game $19.99 and up in case your interested, but I think I'll spend the extra $5 and get that cool towel instead.

I always get the Game Guide for Mario games so the Circuit City is the deal for me.

Let's just hope they get it in this week.

As do I. So I decided to throw that sucker on ebay and got $20 for it. So my pending total for SMS is only $30! GOOD DEAL!

There's a $5 off video game software/hardware coupon for Best Buy in the October issue of EGM. You might want to check it out.

Thanks. About how long ago did you get it? I go to Meijer all the time. Did you do anything special to sign up for it?
