Gunstar Super Heroes $19.99 @ Target until Dec 19th

Post by superhitachi4 »

Hey, just letting you guys know that Gunstar Super Heroes is $19.99 at Target until December 19th. I was holiday shopping, and happened to be in Target (of course I casually wandered toward electronics like I normally do ;)), and there was a tiny ticket inside the GBA display case in front of Gunstar Super Heroes which stated it was on sale until Dec 19th. It must be an unadvertised special or something, as it was just a coincidence that I saw it. Anyway, I picked up my copy (there were only 2 left), and I'm enjoying it. :)

Yup, I picked it up at Target earlier in the week when I saw that price. Now if only I could get Metal Slug Advance for a decent price!

Argh...They didn't have it at my local target. They did have a "temporary price reduction" on God of War. So I picked that up instead for $28.99. I still need Gunstar Super Heroes though.

Damn, at one point I had 5 copies. A long time back, Walmart clearanced them for $8.00. I would've been happy to sell you one at cost, but now I only have one. :(

No way! They still cost $30 everywhere I go. Nice find.

Not on sale at my local Target either. Must be something special to your location superhitachi4, its definately not a nationwide thing (not in any flyer when I asked either). :(

Sorry to hear that, Dave_K. I actually was at two Targets though: The first store had the small tag showing the sale, but they were out of the game. The second store told me it wasn't on sale, but when I had them physically scan the game it came up $19.99 (sale price). Glad to hear Professor Ganson was able to get a copy anyway. ;)

My mom got GSH from Target. I don't know if she got it at the sale price, however.
The radio said, "No, John. You are the demons."
And then, John was a zombie.

Here's a heads up. Metal Slug Advance will drop to 9.98 at Toys R Us this Thursday. I'd jump on it, but I already managed to get a really good deal a few months ago.

Awsome. I'll check tomorrow when I go and sum up my x-mas shopping at Target.

I'll have to make a trip to Toy'R'Us in the near future too as I've just never gotten around to snagging Metal Slug.

I went back to that same Target store that told me it wasn't on sale. Asked a different sales person to get a copy and scan it for me (store wasn't as busy so he actually did it). Sure enough, came up $19.99. :D

Got my copy! Thanks!

Perhaps your ninja skills assisted you in getting this info. Thanks again: I picked up two copies at said price.

Now the only handheld games that are laughing at me with their $30+ price tags are:
Metroid Pinball
that Kirby mirror game (never can remember the name of that one)

I could not find Metal Slug at any Toy'R'us store near me. Care to sell me your extra copy?

Sorry for the confusion, Dave. Check your PMs. I meant $13.50 will cover everything.
