Target, Kmart and some other places sell for $89.99

Bestbuy, Gamestop, Nintendo official street price plus other places for $99

How come there is $10 difference?

Hmm.......????

I got my GBA for $100. I bet the $89.99 is just a temporary price or Nintendo is going to say something about it.

What the major chains are doing is taking a slight loss on the system, hoping you'll buy a couple of games and some accessories.

Accessories have a 100% or higher mark up, so that's where they make the money.

Bad thing is, they all get their systems on Wednseday the 13th, while stores like EB and Babbages get them on Monday the 11th.

Waiting may be worth it, but every minute is excurciating.. Card Fighters will keep me busy while I wait..

I C Best Buy has a deal where if you buy 3 accessories, you get $15 off. You end up paying 1/2 price for stuff. Not too bad. We all know worm lights, link cables and battery packs are essential for hardcore gaming right?
