So Metroid Prime 4, Kirby, and Yoshi are all posted at 99.99 preorders too. This actually seems to be what Nintendo is doing in Canada. Brutal.

Xenoblade 2 is still 79.99 so if you want it you should probably drop a preorder before Amazon figures out its Nintendo published.

kingdom battle is still showing at $79 minus the discount on Amazon also so probably good time to order.

Edit: Splatoon 2 also. Pre order on Amazon while waiting for Wal Mart just in case

It's up for pre-order on Best Buy now, who havee the 20% off until the end of today:

Unfortunately, it looks like Nintendo's great Canadian rip-off is extending to 3DS as well. Pretty steep for an enhanced GBA port.

Good lord. I didn't even notice the 3ds bump for these games this year. It's probably best to preorder and get the discount now since it sure isn't going to happen for a while.

Metroid is still $49.99 on Amazon + 20% off. It's $59.99 on Best Buy now. If you want it and haven't pre-ordered it'd be best to do Amazon right away before they bump it up.

Bungie Says There Are No Specific XB1X Enhancements Planned for Destiny 2; “Same Experience”

However, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Bakken said that Bungie is aiming to deliver the same experience on all platforms and so far, there are no specific enhancements planned for the Xbox One X. Bakken also stated that on PC, Destiny 2 will have aim assist if you are using a gamepad but it won’t have it when playing with mouse and keyboard.

Looks like Amazon E3 pricing is over.

Hmmm with this news and the changes to reduce character customization I think Bungie is really missing the mark. The only saving grace so far for this game is that Anthem doesn't release till Holiday 2018

More accurately the $50 pricing on some games is gone. 20% still there for now.

Walmart pricing is done also and Mario Odyssey went from $50-$79-$100 I wonder if they actually honor the $50 price.

I wonder how accurate Switch pricing is on Amazon. Rocket League is $59.99 on Amazon.ca not to mention the $100 games. I was considering trying to get a Switch but if Amazon pricing is accurate there is no f'ing way.

For anybody still looking for a Switch Wal-Mart Marlborough Mall has what looks like 4 of them on the shelf right now. Neon and Grey.

$100 is supposedly the new Norm for switch games in Canada for the foreseeable future.

I thought Rocket League was announced to be the same price as every other system? It should be No more than $25
