so basically, the only way to find out if they are having this sale is to look for the ad in store, ask a clerk or call? I sure hope that my local eb is having a sale.. these sound like some great deals!

They gave me the ad when I picked up Space Channel 5:SE today(I have no rhythm so sad)

No scanner, so can't post it

Although, the ad for 9.99 games(Tenchu,taxi,t4,genoni,namco museum etc.) shows 5 specific titles but then says "and many more" as well.


Some of the deals

Castlevania:LoI 39.99 weekend special
Karaoke revolution 29.99 no mic weekend special
THUG 39.99 Weekend special
True Crime, receive $10 mail in voucher
Tak and the Power of JuJu 29.99 weekend special
The Hobbit 39.99 weekend special

Heh Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 34.99 with the amusing WHILE SUPPLIES LAST line, insinuating it's a hot price.

They had them out in the store for anyone to take. They always have a bunch of promotional crap all over the place.

I just stopped by the EB near me and the guy knew nothing of a trade-in deal for the games...he even went to the back and asked someone. He said they'd done it before but weren't doing it anymore.

Either he's completely in the dark, or not every store is doing this.

I got the flyer with the paper today. I'm confused about the deal where you buy two players choice/greatest hits/platnium hits games, because it says regularly priced @$19.99. This is strange, because it shows Super Smash Brothers Melee as one of the choices you can buy, when that is a $29.99 game. Does this mean that all player's choice games are included?

Dean, another Q: If I trade in my GBA towards an SP, can I still get the Pirates of the Carribbean free? (It is a 'system purchase' still, right?) Thx!

It was only supposed to be in papers within 3 miles of an EB.

I did not get one.

I guess I'll just have to call my EBGames tomorrow to see if they are participating?

I love within 2 miles of an EB and did not get one either. I did get a Gamestop ad, however.

I'll post my own answer to this when I get back. Question seems to have gotten lost because so many people feel the need to point out that they didn't get an EB flyer in the paper. (Like that matters to anyone else....)

BTW, the trade-in deals are in the flyer.

Just got back it from EB, I picked up max payne 2 and gta vice city for 30 bucks, and some other stuff, however, I did not get 10 dollars for each of my trade-in games. Rather than argue with the cashier, since I had no proof of the sale (I forgot to check for a flyer), I let it go.

So, does anyone have a scan of the ad for the trade ins? I would really appreciate it for recouping my loss this morning. Thanks a lot.

I just picked up Metroid Prime and Super Mario Sunshine for $25 total at EB, each is normally $29.99. I had to argue with the guy in the store because neither game actually has a Players Choice logo on the box, but both games are listed as Players Choice on Nintendo's website. He called someone higher up and they approved it.

Players Choice titles:

Metroid Prime
Luigi's Mansion
Spider-Man (GCN)
Pikmin
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
Star Fox Adventures
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader
Animal Crossing
Super Mario Sunshine
James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire
Resident Evil
