THAT IS CHEAP^^^ Well not really, but that's a nice price drop. Just saw a walmart commercial about NSMBW getting a rollback cut so I went to check the website because I didn't hear how big the price drop is.

Oh and walmart already lists Kinect is $149.99 as well, if anyone cares.

Ughh, I just realized i made a grammatical mistake on my thread title... : /

Oh, nice!



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

The title looks okay to me, or do you just mean the idiosyncratic "lucky you" instead of "you're lucky" or somesuch?

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I thought I needed a comma before yet. "If you haven't bought New Super Mario Bros. Wii, yet, then lucky you." I'm not sure if it is needed, though.

How are you using idiosyncratic in your reply? Are you using it by this definition, "A distinctive or peculiar feature or characteristic of a place or thing."

These prices have been like this for at least a month. Amazon has it for $36 with free shipping as well. It used to come with a $10 giftcard as well, thats why I bought it. It seems the big chains overstocked this one.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

No, putting a comma before "yet" would have been wrong in this case. 

Yeah, that was pretty much what I meant:  that "lucky you" is an ungrammatical turn of phrase, like "if you think (x), you've got another think coming", or "believe you me" (archaic grammar), which can be said 'correctly' even though it's not grammatically correct.

Ah, ok then. Thanks for the answer!
