Taken from CAG.

First go here, and create a new google account.

then go to Toys R Us and find Mario Party

when does this come out?

TRU says March. I went for this deal. Hopefully it goes through, if not, no biggie.

Note...has to be a NEW google checkout account.

Actually, it works on existing accounts. Go to http://checkout.google.com/signupbonus and follow the process as if you were signing up and simply reenter your same credit card info they already have on file and shop from there. Worked for me. Check out the deal thread for more detailed steps: http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=488642

I can confirm what pinata said. I did the same thing about an hour ago. Worth a shot for $25.

This is on CAG, here and Slickdeals already. They will probably all be cancelled here shortly.

thanks gave it a try!

for $27 shipped, I took a chance too. Would be nice to get it at that price.
It shows as backordered on the site and not as a pre-order. Have to wait and see I guess.

I figured WTH too, worst case, it gets cancelled.

Is $29.99 usually the price point on a new Mario Party game?

Nope. $49.99

depends what system. If its not portable, then 49.99 would be the MSRP

The MSRP is showing up at $49.99 for me now.

Oh well.

I got in on it while it was still listed at $30, but I'd be pretty surprised if they honor that price. Still worth a shot, though, so thanks for posting it, pilotwings.

Yeah.. Price now shows $49.99 and a release date of 3/5/07.

I received an email stating that the release date had changed and that my order would ship when it was released. So, there is still a chance that it will come at that point. But who knows. Would be nice at that price, but will have to see.

bumping for anyone who might have received this deal, to check the status.

**mods** change title to "DEAD" or something.

Mine is listed as "In Progress" at the Google Checkout page. I might use the "Contact Seller" link to get more information on my order status.

In progress here.

in progress here too. when is the release date? sometime this week?

today is the release date I believe.

I don't remember which email address that I used to place this order. :(

Release date on TRU.com is 6/1 now.

The ads in most B&M stores have it available tomorrow. Which means it should be at specialty gaming stores this afternoon.

My order got canceled because when I placed it, I used a credit card that expired between then and a week ago when it was canceled.

So, I lost my pre-order at that price.

If that's the case, we're all getting $20 at Circuit City tomorrow! :banana:

[But seriously, I already have a party planned around the release of the game tomorrow. If I am unable to pick the game up at Circuit City or Fry's for $39, heads will fucking roll.]
