    Default EB clearing out N64?

    At my local EB in PA, I noticed yesterday that all of the used N64 games had been marked down...boxed Ocarina of Times (they had tons) were at $9.99, lots of boxed wrestling games $2.99-3.99, and I picked up Jet Force Gemini for $7.99...anyone know if the clearance is chain-wide?

    Haven't seen that in my burg yet. I'll see if I can swing by to see if the sale reached Wisconsin (the city I work in tends to get things last it seems, so it may be a good measuring stick to see if the sale is a local thing or if its making its way).

    This price adjustment hasn't hit my EB or EBX as of yet either.

    Being a store manager of EB, all the stores get the price changes and I can vouch that even though the game is marked $40 it will ring up at the right price, i.e. $9.99 (if that is the right price).

    Good Ones to get are

    mariio 64 9.99
    zelda 9.99
    jet force gemini 7.99
    winback 7.99
    Goldeneye 14.99

    Most expensive games marked at my local EB and Babagges are the Zeldas, Super Smash bros, Mario Party 3 and Paper Mario (that I can remember seeing). Cheapest I've seen are the football titles.

    As far as DC games going on clearance they haven't given us any indication as of yet. However, whats left of their NEW DC games have been marked down pretty much..

    The 64 Games are being marked down because there warehouse is overloaded with games and they are looking to start the new fiscal year with a clear warehouse.

    Also be on the lookout for PS games to drop soon. they have a bunch of them as well.

    EB has started their GMR mag now it is the same as GameStop's Game Informer. It is a introductory $10 Charge which gives you 10 issues of the mag and their EDGE card that saves you 10 % on all pre-own games and accessories. for the next 10 months, its a good deal for a collector.

    I alone have used the card enough to pay for the subscription twice over.

    Sorry didn't mean to plug the EDGE in there habbit of the job.

    Hmmm, I called the EB in my town and he didn't know of anything like that. Might have to stop by and see if they have any games I want and then press my luck.

    Well, I just verified all of the good deals that you have all been discussing.

    I just left an EB Games store and picked up the following:

    2 Boxed Brand New Sega DC controllers - $3.99 ea.

    N64:

    Majora's Mask (Collector's Edition - prism-type label) MINT in box, with MINT manual - $19.99

    Donkey Kong 64 - $9.99

    Goldeneye (with MINT manual) - $14.99

    I didn't pick up the Legend of Zelda or Jet Force Gemini, but they were both $9.99 each.

    It's all true!!
    Great to deal with: Leonk, AdamG, Cheesystick, DigitalPress, ButtaSuperb, Hydr0x, Darth Vader, Gary Gnu, Portnoyd, NexWave, Postermen, Kaine23, ARCZero, kai123, Buyatari, Minilek, DREW, bighab, AlanD, Flack
