This is for Canadians only, and I have no real confirmation on this other than what the internet has told me, although multiple people on Reddit have claimed to call their local store and had it confirmed.

This probably doesn't apply to many people, but if you're like me and have a bunch of sports games collecting dust on your shelves, it might be worth checking out.

I'm going to bring in the last two years worth of Madden and NHL games tomorrow and see if I can come out with a nice $40 in credit.

EDIT: This tweet confirms it:

It's a thing. I've heard they're starting to restrict sports games as people have been abusing the system.

Protip: They're also currently offering double trade in credit on anytihng used toward a Nintendo Switch produce, pre-order or otherwise. I've seen countless people go from location to location getting $400ish to $1000 in trade in credit toward pre-orders and such on a bunch of crap games. $20 per old sport game and such when they were taking them. Definitely worth a check if you've got the stuff to trade.

If they stop the sports games they would have to stop the assassins creed games, call of duty games, and other yearly releases of the such.

Yeah, I've seen some people who've said that they were told no when they brought in a bunch of sports games, which is why I'm trying to get in early.

It's kind of dumb, though, because they specifically say "all" games, and they should have seen this coming.

Update: They took my sports games, and I managed to get $60 for the 4 because NHL 17 was worth almost $30.

I noticed a copy of Fire Emblem: Awakening on the shelf for $30 and hopped on it because I haven't been able to find it anywhere and it's over $60 on Amazon right now.

Also got XCOM 2 with it.

That ends up being pretty close to $60 Canadian anyway!

FE: Awakening and Bravely Default are my two white whale 3DS games. Ever since I bought a 3DS a year ago, I've been looking for them in stores whenever I get a chance because they've hovered around $60 online (Bravely Default is $70 right now), but until today I could never find either of them.

I enjoyed it overall, but something about it made it feel not as good as NHL 16, gameplay wise.

I do a bunch of GM mode but 90% of my time is spent in Ultimate Team, and I also didn't like the changes they made there with the collections and sets, so I fell off way faster this year. I'm not even sure if I'm going to but NHL 18, and NHL is the one franchise I've purchased yearly for as long as I an remember.

I could help you out with Bravely Default.
