Canadian Gaming "Deals" and Discussion Thread 6: Sorry, We Can't Afford a New Thread

Not open for further replies.
Hello Everyone,

Looking to buy a game/gift for my young nephew who is 10. Game must be WiiU, anything out there that is "deal".

I can't think of anything on sale offhand but physical copies of Shovel Knight are $25 or $30. It's relatively new in print, easy to find in places like Walmart and the game is, of course, amazing.
 
I chatted with amazon, and they said since I have a promo on that order the promo will removed. So I asked if I can remove the game and make a new order with the other game and they make a discount on it. they said

=D

Edit: I haven't cancel the "old" game yet, wonder if they will cancel it? lol


Lucky, i asked and got "No, but you can make a new order without the discount."

Thanks pal.

And they more than likely will cancel the other game, but maybe you'll get lucky.
 
Is anybody looking to buy a digital copy in The Uncharted Collection for pS4? I have a code in looking to get rid of for $40

Also if anybody is looking for a tv in Toronto. I have a 32 inch 1080p Samsung smart tv I'm looking to sell for $150. The only catch is that it doesn't have a controller.
 
My Paper Jam got a delay because apparently it arrived at the incorrect carrier facility despite being processed in my city, and it says it is re-routed. Guess I am going to get another $5 credit from Amazon :/
 
Paper Jam coming from Dynamex, which basically means a dude in a Van that will call me when they're three blocks away.

It baffles me that Amazon continues to use this company
 
Yeah, it's a nice looking case, though. I've had it for a bit and like it.

I sometimes get deliveries from guys in white vans who carry clipboards that I need to sign on.

There's no company name on the vans or trucks though. And they don't call.

Is that them?
 
As I was browsing for my desperate pre-order of Gravity Rush Remastered... I asked the CS about whether or not Prime Savings was exclusive to Amazon.com... here is the "answer":

Amazon Canada said:
CS: Hello, my name is Samala. I'm glad to help you today.
Me: Hi!
CS: I understand that you'd like to get 20% off on your .ca order.
Me: ?
No... I was wondering if that promotion (and as a feature of being a Prime member) would ever come to Canada?
CS: Since, this is .ca issue, they'll be able to assist you according, please stay connected while I transfer the chat
Are you referring to Prime Savings mister?
Me: Yes!
My question is: Is Prime Saving a thing on Amazon.ca?
or is it exclusive to Amazon US website?
CS: Yes, I've checked it and it is currently only available for Amazon.com customers.
I've contacted the promotions team and they've updated saying the promotion will be available on amazon.ca soon for the Prime customers too.
Meanwhile, would you like me to forward your email address to the promotions team so that they'll notify you?
Me: Do we have any release window for such announcement?
Yes. Please.

Seems like the Prime Savings might come to Amazon.ca too... soony!
 
I got mine today. Red like Mario Kart 8; for a minute I thought I was getting a reprint. Has this been an on-going trend for newer 3DS games lately? It's scust.

I kinda hope that NoA would make black cases/boxart like they do for "mature and serious" games, but that's just me.
 
1 day PS+

3ADP-HRNR-N25K

Can't be bothered to turn on my ps4 to redeem this and never take advantage of a day of PS+ so whoever has use for this go for it.

I wouldn't have minded a black box for Bravely Default or Shin Megami Tensei 4. This red box business needs to stop though. I thought it would strictly apply to reprints past a certain point but I guess not.

I'll believe it when I see it. It seems like she had only the most basic grasp of what you were asking.
 
Kat's still young. give her longer than 2 weeks to develop

Lol damn typo. Maybe ppl that are interested in getting the retail copy should contact amazon too. Tell them the official release date is confirmed, price is also up on psn. What's the hold up? Give them some pressure.
 
Since Gravity Rush has a page up, i wonder if the same thing works that worked for me with Quantum Break. That had a page up for the longest time, till i contacted them, asking why i can't pre order the game. They send a notice to whatever department, and within a week it was available.

yeah, make sure you tell them the official release date is Feb 2 too, so they need to hurry up. I actually emailed them a couple times before they even had the page up, they told me it was only available for Amazon.com at the moment but was looking to expand their inventory and forwarded my request to the "right" department. And some time later it pop up on the amazon app on my phone but when I click on it said error. Now that the real page it up, I do think that they definitely want to sell it on Amazon.ca. The current CAD exchange rate is probably the major issue as they can't price it too high from PSN but too low they would loose money. I do hope that it will be 35 CAD max.

Would this possibly kill the E3 deal, then?
 
yeah, don't expect oil to stay up when Iran starts exporting....

And you also add the batcrazy nutbars running the province that's been the economic engine for the country . . . at least 3 more years of a government that literally wants to hurt itself.
 
Anyone know the best place to buy arcade parts? I want maybe an ipac and some seimitsu buttons. Getting this from an american store like focusattack is painful right now

Canadianjoysticks sells parts. I've never ordered from them but I've heard good things about them before.
