I saw a sign up at the Paramus Bestbuy:

Buy a Gamecube console with 2 games 29.99 or higher with a memory card 59 or 251 and get $30 off instantly.

The date on the sign said 11/2 so I'm assuming that's when the promotion ends. Sux cuz BB has the platinum cube listed as an 11/5 release.


EDIT: In-store only

my local best buy gives only $10 off

I ordered the Platinum Gamecube but before I emailed them about whether it would ship it time and this is what they said.

Hello from EBgames.com,

As long as your order date is before the 27th Of October, then you will
be able to redeem the $50 voucher. When you mail in the rebate, just
let us know that it was a pre-order for the Platinum Gamecube.

Thank you and have a great day!

Sincerely,
Ria

I think that's the 10 off 2 games deal. The one I'm speaking of is not in this week's ad.

And EB does have a better deal if you don't mind waiting for the rebate. At BB, the $30 off is instant at checkout.

Thanks Iceman91. I've added Madden 2003 $29.99 to the list. I also noticed Smashing Drive is $9.99 at EBGames.com

Man... I just paid $30 shipped for a USED Madden 2003 last week. Figures it drops to $30 NEW this week.

I just called EB. The guy didn't know anything about a $20 coupon when you buy a Gamecube and Metroid. He said his manager would be in around 3:00 if I wanted to call back.

He did say that pre-paying for the Platinum should work for the $50 off.

I want a Platinum with the $50 and the $20 off. That would be HOT!!!

Wanted to mention that I no longer have my Gamecube. I will continue to update the top of this thread as needed, but it would be better for someone else to create a new thread for the BIG LIST.

If someone wants to take the responsibility for starting the new thread I can email the current text of the first post so that the new person would only have to copy and paste it into the new thread. I will continue to update the thread as long as needed though.

AUtiger: thanks for you all your help with this thread !

went to EB earlier today and got THPS4 for $10 after trading in 2 games (Residen Evil and Super Smash Bros... i never played either of them that much, THPS3 is the only game i really played a lot). this game RULES... if you liked THPS3, i suggest you run out to the store NOW and get THPS4. I can't say enough good things about this game, it is VERY fun. I only wish the gamecube version came w/ network adapter support

oh, one other problem... size options are somewhat limited in the 'create a skater' section... i wanted to make a really fat guy, but the largest i could get him was around 200lbs

oh well. the game still rules, u just can't play w/ fatties

I am considering stepping up to the plate as far as taking over the Gamecube Deals thread. I have access to AT every workday and I could spend 5 minutes of my time each weekday just to enter the new prices that people send me. About how much of time does this thread take out of your day AU Tiger?

Very interested, let me know,

CK

Looks like Eminem2K1 beat you to it CK!

GameCube Thread Ver.2

 

[AU Tiger]

Back from the dead. I decided the PS2 wasn't for me and picked up a new Gamecube today. I'm working to clean the thread up to eliminate dead deals and add new ones.

Many thanks to Eminem 2K1 for maintaining the thread.

A hypothetical deal, just posted for your amusement..

$150..Gamecube console
$50..Metroid Prime
$35..Wavebird
$235 TOTAL

Purchase the above at Circuitcity online using MS Wallet and credit card with price protection

$235
-$47 MSN Holiday reward
-$25 Nintendo console rebate
-$35 Circuit City Wavebird rebate
-$5 Nintendo Wavebird rebate
-$5 Metroid rebate
-$10 price match Metroid to CompUSA in Circuit City store
-$30 price match console to FAO price of $119.99 with credit card price protection

$78 GRAND TOTAL for Gamecube,Wavebird, and Metroid

I haven't read all the terms involved in all of the parts of this deal so it might not really be possible, I'm not recommending it to anyone, just hypothetical. I'm sure there must be something wrong somewhere because the end result is nuts.
