Big 3DS game sale at best buy next week (US ONLY)

So back on topic

Has anyone found out if sale is online too, or are we still in the dark about that until it *actually* happens?

It's probably real. Don't they usually come out and squash fake rumors like this? Especially when the news of it happening has exploded over the gaming community. Best Buy is really Nintendo friendly so I bet it's real.

lol oops sorry the old argument + the new question got me mixed up cause they were similar topics.

I mean if the sale will be available on their website or if its just in-store only.
 
Oh. I'd put my money on in-store only. I tried to look but see nothing online and no mention of online just people asking the same question as you.
 
Sunday when it happens probably...
Or it'll be a "secret" sale and they'll only do the paper advert along with a couple other minor things. I'm mostly worried that this is a stock clearance sale of sorts, where they'll have barely any games left, so people go and try and bogo whatever's left of their regular stock.

- - - Post Merge - - -

I don't want to go in for my awesome bogo sale and I only see Disney + Mario Party left. Even though I'm oddly okay with getting both of those.
 
My only concern is hopefully nothing will be sold out. I remember buying Disney Magical World on release day, only to find out it was sold out quickly in several locations. I ended up getting it at gamestop where they charge more - . -
 
You guys live near some weird Best Buys. Disney Magical World sold out and WiiU Pro controller not in stock.
 
NOOOOOOOO
; - ;

WHY CANT THEY HAVE THIS IS CANADA

Because the entire world hates Canada. Heck, we didn't even have a release time set for OR/AS until recently. Plus I noticed Pokemon events are going back to being US only when they're outside game events. Because **** Canada, right?(They'll soon learn.. Canada will, one day, rule the world.)
 
Mario Party Island Tour is NOT worth the money! I own it and beat it in 1 day, MAYBE 2. It's really only fun if you can convince other people to buy it too...there's nothing to collect, from my memory at least, and so you're stuck playing the horrendously short main boards. They're literally maybe 20-30 spaces long!

I want to thank you for pointing that out. I know that it depends on the person, but I like to choose a game based on reviews in addition to my personal taste. Since there are just so many games out there these days, it certainly helps narrow down the choices.

As for the sale itself.
I already have both Pokemon games thanks to that Nintendo Promotion back in April and Zelda: A Link Between Worlds was a day one purchase for me so I don't need them.

I guess I'm gonna buy Kirby since I had my eye on that one for a long time, despite it's short length it is suppose to be an easy game too. Which would contrast nicely with my second pick Bravely Default which I heard is pretty challenging and rather long.
I really wished they had Fire Emblem: Awakening but ah well. I certainly can't complain, this is a pretty good deal.

Pfft, Bravely Default isn't that hard if you know how to play JRPGs properly(plus once you get certain job/skill combos you become, literally, unbeatable and can let the game auto battle for from then on[such as Ninjas using a certain skill from the Red Mage job]

edit: Oh, and once you reach a certain level, the game becomes extremely easy; since nothing can kill you anyway(and the final boss is a joke. Way to easy to kill if you setup properly and are at the proper level)

Ah thanks for the heads up on that case. I haven't played a JRPG in ages unless you count Pokemon, so I'm a little intimidated by it. I think the last JRPG (not counting pokemon) I played was the World Ends with You? And that played very different from anything else.
 
I already have Pokemon X, Bravely Default and Tomodachi Life so hmm.. Maybe I'll try a Zelda game for once. I've never played one so idk lol. Maybe the freebie can be the Disney one.
 
IM TORN ON WHETHER I SHOULD DO THIS OR NOT. I only have $60, and I have no way to make money. Hyrule Warriors, Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, Super Smash Bros, Sims 4, are ALL coming out soon. I'm saving for one of the games, but idk which. My birthday is smack in the middle of all the release dates though, so I have that going for me. IIDDDDKKK! D:
 
I wouldn't recommend Bravely Default to anyone. It's a good game until the fourth chapter. I honestly really like it until that point, but someone would have to put a gun to my head for me to finish chapters 6-8.

I want to know why because that was one game I planned on getting. Was it just super boring?
 
I can't say without ruining the story. Suffice to say, you have to replay large segments of the game over and over again as part of the story with minor changes. While the first half is actually really long compared to the second half, the second half is just tedious. I'm sure some would disagree but I still have not finished it with 81 hours played. It was fun and a great game at first but it has a few very painful and not enjoyable chapters. It's been a few months and I still haven't had the urge to play.

- - - Post Merge - - -

But since it is buy one get one free, it really shouldn't matter. Go ahead and try it out. Some people can truck through the bad chapters and apparently the last few chapters are good. But you'll see a lot of people that feel the same why as I if you research the game's second half.
