Meh. When I first saw the topic title, I thought it was confirmation that the Mana collection for Switch was being ported over to the US. Now THAT I would have been really excited about.


Instead, just a 3D remake of Secret of Mana for PS4? Meh. Not that exciting.

Wow. Gamespot gave it a 4/10.

Their main complaints are that it's missions are very repetitive and the dialogue sounds like it was written by a 12 year old that plays too much Call of Duty.

Are you staying at a hotel on Disney Property or off site? If you are staying on site, the best piece of advice i have is:

- ARRIVE EARLY and go back to the hotel around 1:00 or 2:00 for a mid-day nap.Getting there before opening is the most critical key to enjoying rides and/or meeting characters before lines get unbearably long. The more you wait in line, the more miserable everyone gets - and this is amplified with children.

- The midday nap is essential for everyone to recharge, especially if you want to arrive early to beat the lines and stay late to see the fireworks show. An hour or two in a cool, dark room does wonders for your energy and patience levels. The middle of the day (2-6 PM) is the hottest and busiest part of the day anyways, so you aren't missing much. Even if returning to your hotel is not feasible, go find a dark, air conditioned show like the Hall of Presidents, Carousel of Progress or Ellen's Energy Adventure where you can sit and let the girls nap for a bit. Take in two shows in a row if needed.

- Pack snacks and refillable bottles for water. It will save you tons of money. You can refill your bottles at the drinking fountains, but any quick service restaurant will also give you free cups of water that you can dump in your bottle.

- There is another excellent Princess Dinner at Akershus in Norway at Epcot. They have great, unique food and it's a great way to meet several more princesses.

- Use your Fastpasses! You can book a few rides/shows/ character meets ahead of time to skip the line save a ton of time.

Let me know if you have any more touring questions. I hope you have a great time!

So yesterday gamestop received emails that customers were really smart and were taking hella advantage of these deals by Trading in their games, getting a crapload of money, and then rebuying their games with the buy 2 get 1 free sale and having money leftover


This apparently pissed off corporate enough to send several warnings to not let customers do this.

As of right now, it looks like the value for all of the games have gone down to counteract this


I got 54 for tekken with these sales, it barely pulls 37 now


So it might not be worth it anymore at this point

If you got in on it on time, then congratulations!


That is hilarious, Punny. Did corporate tell you to check people's purchase history? Or deny trades if it felt fishy? Or to just deny incredibly stupid stuff like the idiots that wanted to trade in their games and buy them back in the same store or even in the same transaction?

Anything close to $1000 in one trade and the employees might look at you crazy - an overzealous employee might even give you a hard time. They won't take in more than one copy of each game per platform per store per day. And if you pass $2000 or trade in 5 copies of the same game, their system will ban you from further trade ins.

Otherwise, you are good to go. Just check the trade in value on Gamestop.com before you buy. If the base trade in value of a game is currently $25, the promo will give you $42.50 for it.

That Gamestop promo is beyond ridiculous right now. I really wanted to get a Switch this week, so I took $420 and turned that into:

A Nintendo Switch
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Zelda Botw
World of Final Fantasy Limited Edition
Atelier Sopnie
Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
Tales of Zestiria
Super Paper Mario (Non GH)

(all games were complete)

and another $850 in Trade Credit leftover.

It's the rare perfect storm of promos at the same time:

70% Bonus for trading in 6+ games
Buy 2 Get 1 free on all preowned games
End of the month trade in value boost

The promos run until July 4th. You can literally buy 6 First party 3DS games for about $140 and trade them in at another Gamestop for $255.

1996's lack of depth is being exposed with the dual-pictures. Meanwhile, 1997's new inclusions of the N64 versions of Mario Kart and Star Fox are likely strengthening the year. We'll see if it can keep this up, though.

Not really. Those pictures are just straight up sabotage.
There are plenty of options that could (and should) have been used over the likes of Suikoden, Metal Slug, and Nights into Dreams.
Any of Duke Nuken 3D, Quake, Resident Evil, Tekken 2, and Diablo would have been undeniably better choices.


I would take Suikoden on this site over Duke Nukem, Quake, Tekken 2 and mayyyyyyyybe even Diablo. Metal Slug and Nights are pretty useless, though.

So, of the 4 matches in the next round, which matches have the biggest upset potential?

I would list them (from toss up match to NO chance for an upset) -

1994 > 1991 - I could see this match going either way, especially if consoles make a difference.

1997 > 1996 - FF7 is still a beast (Even if it's not a Top 2 game anymore, it is certainly still Top 5) and I think 1997 has a bit more depth than 1996, which relies mainly on Mario games. But, again, if consoles matter, the N64 could give 1996 the push for an upset.

2001 > 1995 - It's possible Chrono Trigger pulls off a crazy upset, but seems unlikely at this point.

1998 > 2003 - Barring some major shenanigans, the 2003 upset isn't even a possibility.

No, it wouldn't of. FF12 barely has a fanbase (fun fact, FFX will be the last FF worth a damn in anything gfaqs contest related). KH2 doesnt have much contest strength anymore either. Most people have moved on to WRPGs anyway, and Skryim (despite it being meh imo) is praised by plenty of people.


Kingdom Hearts II and Final Fantasy XII would have ABSOLUTELY brought in more votes here than Gears of War and Oblivion (especially when Oblivion was matched up against Skyrim). On top of that, Okami should have been the bottom pic of that year - not the leading picture.

The US has just flipped over to 1987 earlier. That would explain why 1987 has been stalling 1995 for like the past 2 hours. 1987 hasn't put up any serious attempt at cutting away at this lead, but I do feel pretty safe that 1995 isn't going to blow this one.

1995 is currently performing 3% better overall compared to the US. This might be one of those matches where the winner doesn't win the popular vote in the US.
