    Default Trace Memory DS at Target for $7.48!!

    I got the last one at my store. I don't know if the price drop is nationwide or regional. But I'd thought I'd pass on the deal. Good luck!

    At this price everyone should get this game. It's a great game. I bought it for $30, but now no one should miss out.
    All my meseta if you can guess what CMTZ stands for.

    I, too, paid $30 for this game, and didn't feel bad about. Anyone who likes puzzle/adventure, Myst-type games should jump on this.
    I only need 2 more NES games (US)!

    This deal isn't at all Target stores. A couple stores around here had it for $20. Found one for $15 though, so I snatched it up. Most Targets cleared Trace Memory out a couple months ago, so it might be tough to find any stores that are still carrying it.

    Yeah, definately a YMMV offer. My local Target still has it at full price. Then again, I never find any clearenced out stuff there, despite the stock never seeming to move. :/

    this game is so worth $8, takes advantage of many of DS' features. I bought it when it first came out and didnt regret it.

    In order to get the whole $8 dollars worth you must play it for more than 3 minutes.

    I am an hour into it and it is a great game. It's a little linear, like myst but highly enjoyable. Throwing the iron ball was something else.

    I did. I beat the game, but that only took about four hours. And if you get all of D's clues, there's absolutely no reason to play the game again.

    So you have a very short game, with little to no replay value. Unless you're buying to collect, there's really no reason to buy the game when you can just rent it. That's why I say I didn't get a full game's value for a full game's price.

    For $8, yeah, not a bad deal, but it's not worth more than that.

    Default You need to ask them to scan it...

    Target deals are very rarely YMMV. I picked it up when it dropped to $20 a month or so ago at Target. It has been sold out since.

    I am enjoying the game more. I am not a rpg kind of guy. Even though this isn't a true rpg. It's really fun. I am on Chapter 3 and the clues are getting easy to spot now that I know how the game fits together.

    I just finished it. It was quick but a great game. For me imo, too much dialogue. I am more of a shut up and play old school arcade guy. rpg's aren't for me, but it was a cool game to play. I liked myst back in the days too.
