Yes! Although I never thought I would see Paper Mario go down in price. Is this Players Choice done by copies sold?

Damnit I just bought Paper Mario! I got it used for $25 Cdn.

Oh well, at least I can get a copy of four swords :D

I've been waiting for a price drop on Four Swords for what's felt like ages. I might have to stop by Best Buy tonight if these are already in affect.

...are they?

ebgames.com has it listed as $19.99
and futureshop.com (Canada's version of Circuit City) has it listed at $29.99 Cdn

Oh, haha. I just mentioned these in another thread. We got most of them in where I work. It looked like Pikmin 2 was in an original package though, not best sellers, so I may pick that up. Paper Mario sadly was a player's choice, and I hate buying re-released versions.

W00t!!! Been wanting to get Paper Mario for a while now. So glad I waited for a price drop. As for Four Swords, do you have to connect your GBA to your GC in order to play that?

And Super Smash Bros STILL won't drop. Yes I know its the best selling game, but it was a launch title!

Damn it. I better hurry and pick up two of those titles before they get that ugly ass Player's Choice stamp on them. I refuse to own a Player's Choice game.

Yes, I have been wanting this game for sometime now. I won't pay 50 though for a game that's been about for 2 years already.

Actually, it wasn't a launch title, but came about soon after launch, December I think.

Mario kart: Double Dash
Mario Party 4
Mario Party 5
Mario Party 6
Mario Party 7
Super Smash Bros. Melee

EDIT: This does not include stores "Clearancing off games"

I have to pick up Paper Mario now. I got Pikmin 2 for $10 after Christmas during TRU's inventory. That ruled because the game is AWESOME!!!

Opinion.

Random Fact: No Mario Party game has ever been at a $19.99 price point.

It's great, isn't it? 4 days ago i went to KMart to buy rampage, But ended out buying Paper Mario! And yes, it is the original version. Actually, it was the only copy left. :)

While i was there i also noticed some GBA games in the bargain bin:

Sonic Advance 3
Warioware Twisted
Yoshi: Topsy-Turvy

YES.. Warioware at $20! Now i have to get a GBASP2. :/

If anyone can get Paper Mario and/or StarFox Assault without the Player's Choice banner OR the Best Seller logo, let's talk. :-)

Can anyone tell me if Starfox is worth 20 bucks? :hmm: I mean, I heard the on-foot shit was horrible, but how bout the flying? Thanks.

Assault is worth twenty bucks, but not much more than that. The flight stuff is good, but the way they screwed with the banking controls (R doesn't bank your craft right anymore, and L pulls double duty as the sole banking button) it's kind of unintuitive. There are only about three classic "corridor" levels though... the rest of the game is filled with "free flight areas", which translates into "fly the Arwing for five seconds before having to land it and explore on foot for half an hour".

I REALLY hope StarFox DS brings some much needed life back into the series.

Gah. Mine is original, only it says "BEST SELLER" - I did not consider this when i posted up my reply on the 14th.

Couldn't resist buying it, though. I had been wanting to play it for a LONG time.

I may end up buying the Best Seller version myself, but I'm still hopeful to find the plain one. I could get it if I go to GameStop and don't mind buying an already opened allegedly new one, but you know, I'd rather not do that.

I've found a surprisingly good amount of non-PC titles at a local Circuit City, probably because most people tend to go to the Best Buy just a few blocks down. I actually found a non-PC Super Monkey Ball there about two years ago, and I also got my non-BS Paper Mario there too (don't ask, I already looked the other day, they have no more).

Just try someplace that you know probably doesn't sell that many GC games, like perhaps a backwater Wal-Mart that most people are afraid to go to *L*.

My local Circuit City isn't all that good for GC at all, so nothing there. Most places around here don't have much GC stuff at all, really... But I'll keep looking.
