Wal-Mart Miss-Priced Games, Great for everyone

[Amy]

Well, Kinda messed up, but ehh well... cheap NEW games are great and not sure your area Wal-Mart's mess up like this, but when they do always jump on it. :wink:

As is, yesterday I saw Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. a game I not have got yet, am not and was not ever a 'real' fan of the Prime series, first person shooters... blahhh give me the classic 2D ones better. So would NEVE pay soem $49.99 for the game, BUT an local area Wal-Mart had it 'misspriced' at $19.95 and with my brothers 'Wal-Mart employee discount card that is almost like $17.99 soooooo nice 'expensive' game sold at other wal-Marts and game stores for $49.95 I saw and grabbed for cheapo safe some money price of merely $20.00

Now I KNOW it was miss-priced well ebcause the sales paper says and claims it is Metroid Prome for $19.95, not the 'part 2' that is and was $49.95. It had both in the sale's paper and the Metroid Prime was only one marked to $19.95 which is not big thing, it is a greatest hits and otherwise anything over $19.95 even anything over $9.99 (as Game Stop has it for) is way too much for an old game anyway.

So again, it is something screwy here at my local Wal-Mart hope it happens there, but not sure, someoen was just asleep when they proced the games I would think, but they went to sleep and they have 8 of them for that much, well 7 now that I grabbed one, call it a win for the game players. :P

I do wonder if any other Wal-Mart done that or anyone else also found soemthing of a mistake btu great for you? hehe sorta reminds me of back in October when gas was so darn high also around in this state and way in the west those towel heads did nto know how to change the price becaus eit was so high and marked it at $3.15 a gallon, YET being non english towel heads, they were 'stupid' so the gas they were selling started getting gone fast and their boss foudn otu those idiots wee selling the gas at 13 cents a gallon. Gas back in October right after those Hurricanes hti was all high and mess and two towel heads being 'oil' muslins yet idiots started selling the mess for 13 cents, that was classic.... more stuff like that needs to happen, to some well, to soem place and somewhere it can be got away with easy. :P

Also like 'pleican' that time they 'offered' free upgrade CodeBreakers and I kept wrtting them saying 'always' they never sent mine til they stopped the mess and at the end I had 20 copies of version 8.1 to 9.0 for 'free' though I still fuss for them salign something , well selling ti to 'other' people' and NOT doing any customer support worth alot. :P

Anyway as is, win for the game players, now come on, as is, it costs like what one dollar to press a disc, two dollars for the info on the disc, so all in all somehting made for $3.00 and then sold for up to $50.00 well heck yeah when they slip up always, we the gammers 'slide' in. :P

Someone on subject, I bought my copy of Capcom VS SNK2 for PS2 for 20 dollars at walmart. Then after Capcom VS SNK2 Evo came out they jacked the PS2 game back up to 50 dollars. That was kinda cheap.

Neat, I remember that, it was done here too, but in all stores (Wal-Mart I mean anyway) I already had Capcom VS SNK2 for PS2 and even the 'new' Evos on GameCube, just was not enough there to make me buy it all over again. (kinda off topic/on topic heh I agree with Ugetab's rant he made recently about the 'DVD releases' 'Special Editions' vs normal Editions vs all other Ultimate Editions.) I do 'rebuy' some great stuff, if it is indeed great for 'both versions' but the Evo mess...was just not enough there to justify that, and otherwise, as is PS2 wise is and was 'bigger' so I can understand why they re-rasied' the price. It is all a money game to every store out there. :P
