Judging by the cosplays, girl Link is already a thing.

Thanks for the heads up.

Caved and ordered that and a bunch of PS4 games. Good deal.

Best Buy has the Kyrat Edition for the same price as the normal edition across all platforms. Might want to get in save a ton right now.

<$50 CDN versus $130 US retail.

Did Nintendo have that great of show? Aside from Smash Bros. (which we've known about for over a year), there was a kick ass 20 second clip of the new Zelda annnnnnd... That's about it.

I didn't think it was 'E3 winning' quality like I've seen some people and friends say. Splatoon was interesting and the robot chicken ads were cute but having such a short presentation left me wanting more especially since it was Nintendo.

I think the whole notion of "winning E3" is a dumb thing fanboys love to trot out. This E3 showed me a lot of interesting games that I am looking forward to playing. If we're talking about which of the big 3 gave a presentation that makes me want to run out and buy a console then I have to throw my hat in Nintendo's ring. They've got a lot of exciting games currently and more coming down the pipe and the big caveat here as that they're exclusives. Everything coming out for PS4 and Xbox One I'll be able to play on PC. The only exception to that is the new Guilty Gear and Halo collection.

Yeah that E3 deal is killer.

Hard to stay controlled when they don't charge your credit card until it ships and you can always just go in-store to return them if you change your mind.

In the video game circles I travel in Splatoon is getting huge hype and huge early following. If Nintendo takes all the positive attention towards Splatoon from this show to heart and puts a ton of time and resources behind it they could have another new IP massive hit on thier hands with this one.

Plenty of media at the show thinks it might challenge for "best shooter" at this E3.

E3 winner . . . the consumer!

Here are some more 1080p 60fps videos for some of the Nintendo games. Offscreen but still hyped!

EDIT: For Yoshi, Kirby, Smash Brothers and Splatoon

And . . . this is now dead. Price corrected back to $149.99!!!

Congrats if you scored the deal.

[chemgear]

And just a reminder for everybody (sorry for turning this into a shopping thread!) Likely the same timing for Best Buy.

Fine for me but has been a while since you posted.

Still doesn't work, I try to log in and it takes me to an error screen. I add items to a cart and check out, try to log in and I get an error.

Called customer service and they say it might take a couple days to find the problem, and that I can always buy them as a guest. I would rather just make a new profile though so I can actully log in and have an order history.

Looks like I better go make a new profile.

The best buy one seems better... got 21.50 off each instead of 20.

And the rewards points/free gift "card" return back on games!

EDIT: I think it's 2.5% back on gaming purchases you make.

New Star Fox, new epic yarn game, splatoon got a lot of buzz.

As far as IP delivery goes (which most people are really looking for) Nintendo crushed it.

Pre-ordered mine off Amazon, better deal than Best Buy or Futureshop I think.

NHL 15
Last of Us Remastered
Far Cry 4

$153 after tax, free two day shipping

I'm happy.

Yeah I went with Future Shop, total for 6 games was $314.94. All the games from last E3 came on time or a day early with standard shipping, so I figured I would go with them again.

Nice, I wish they did more 60fps videos for stuff like this.
