$4.99 games at Circuit City

[Half Japanese]

Yes, much like Best Buy recently did, CC is clearing out older games for cheap. An official list hits Tuesday but the price drops are already in effect in the computer, so I scanned as much as I could in my free time today at work to see what rang up cheap. Here are my findings:

GBA:
Shining Soul
Robotech: Macross Saga

ps2:
Aliens vs Predator
Bloody Roar 4
Devil May Cry 2
Frequency
Jet X20
Rygar
Robot Alchemic Drive
Roadkill
Sled Storm
Ico
Metropolismania
My Street


Xbox:
Aliens vs Predator
Crimson Sea
Toejam & Earl III
Dino Crisis 3
Burnout 2
Evil Dead
State of Emergency
Roadkill


GCN:
MegaMan Battle Network


These (above) are all titles I have confirmed personally (and can remember). I have speculated on some others that are probably $4.99 and they are listed as follows:

Monster Rancher 3 (ps2)
Mark of Kri (ps2)
Primal (ps2)
Super Bust a Move (ps2)
Drake (Xbox)
Dragons Lair 3D (Xbox)
Dave Mirra 2 (GCN)
E.T. (GBA)
Dead to Rights (GCN)
Big Mutha Truckers (all 3)


I have no idea if the list of markdowns is completed yet, as some I really expected to be on there aren't at the $4.99 pricepoint yet. They may just be doing a few per day and doing the rest tomorrow or Tuesday, I have no idea. This isn't set to be advertised at all until the 10th, but I've already had one CAG regular come into my store looking for certain titles, so the word is out. Get it while the gettin's good!

When does Circuit City close and open. I am wondering because I work a night shift at Meijer, and could go before or after work.

Off topic, but are shipping boxes for game related stuff worth anything?

Thanks for the heads up. Hope they got a few copies of shining soul,megaman NT and toejam and earl 3 at my local store.

Good luck. My store had 1 copy of SS, 1 copy of TJ&E and 2 copies of MMNT. Go as soon as possible to ensure you aren't left with crap like Drake to choose from.

Resident Evil: Dead Aim (PS2)
Dynasty Warriors 4 (PS2)

I'll pay cost + some trade or extra cash for em! I need those titles for my collection! PM me if you can get any for me!

Thanks!

Stupid Canada doesn't have Circuit City!

I know *sniff* it sucks up here

Too bad this couldn't have started a week or so earlier as I was just in the US on vacation last Friday through Sunday

[Half Japanese]

Not yet, but they bought some Canadian store out and you should have them soon. I know this becuase they woke me up at 9AM to tell me this shit about a month ago in a storewide meeting...whooptie-fuck-do.


Also, good luck finding a lot of those $5 games Cmosfm listed from CAG. I haven't seen some of them in ages, and some of them I don't remember EVER seeing at my store. Hopefully the CAG crowd won't turn the next week into a hellride. We have 2 guys that are pretty nice that come in when we run deals (one offered to give up the last copy of Rez because I had mentioned considering it), but most of the rest are just assholes.

[Richter]

CAG thread is too cluttered x.x

[gamingnoise]

Man, this is why I love reading posts from this board. Picked up 13 of these bad boys today for 68 bucks total. Damn, what a sweet deal! One of my best bargain hauls ever. I really wanted Ape Escape 2, Kung-Fu Chaos, and Dragon's Lair, but those weren't there. I have two more tries tomorrow morning at 11!

Thanks again for the heads-up.

PS: Add City Crisis (PS2) to your list as well as Dead or Alive Volleyball (XBOX).

[Half Japanese]

I didn't post anything at CAG, since that place is a breeding ground for greedy gamemongers (not that DP is completely void of those ), I figured I'd let DP in on this now-not-so-secret deal first. Thanks for those two you mentioned, I might have to try out DOA Volleyball for $5. I have a whole stack of games set aside at work to pick up later this week.

I might start a definitive list culled from personal experience and DP users input if the interest is there. Keep in mind that this deal runs until the 30th!

[-hellvin-]

Thank you for this wonderful heads up, as I do not always check in at CAG. Got around 8 great titles, all in the weekend finds =D. Disgaea will easily make almost all my money back on ebay since I already have it.

[jonjandran]

Not a SINGLE one of those games were at the Circuit City in Mobile, Alabama.

Someone must have picked it clean earlier.

[Half Japanese]

Mobile, Alabama

I think that's where your problem lies...

[vespertillio]

Thanks so much. As a dad with 3 kids, I don't get much chance to get games too much except for used and for my antiquated retro systems (Which they find boring ). Thanks to you folks I picked up 7 (6 kid friendly ) titles for their GameCube. I aways heard great things about Viewtiful Joe; now we can finally play it.
Thanks again for the heads up. Have a great 4th folks.

I happened to pick up the Dragon's Lair title for the Cube today at that sale. If you want it, I'd be glad to trade it to you if you don't find it tomorrow. I bought it because I was curious how this title turned out, so I'm not partial to it, and I'll give fair value in trade (Meaning, $5 & shipping).

[Crush Crawfish]

:Is burning with determination:

I missed best buy, I missed game rush, I WILL NOT MISS THIS!!!!!!!!!

NOTE: Just realized that tommorow's july 4th. Is circuit city still open? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LET IT BE OPEN!!!!!!

[-hellvin-]

I WILL NOT MISS THIS!!!!!!!!!

WOW, you seem quite determined! There's still a few CC's I gotta hit tomorrow for a few titles I didn't find. Might go back to another to get Shining Soul. Heard it sucked, but for 5, might as well throw it in the collection.
