wow. That was quick.

Quote from slicksder : wow. That was quick.

It's still in stock, if you click on the link instead of seeing the the sold out, you can still order it.

I mean the price cut.

Nice deal. Will make a nice addition to an Easter basket. Thanks.

I bought this at BestBuy.com maybe 3 weeks ago for $15. Do they price match themselves? It is still unopened (like most of the games I buy but never get around to playing).

Update: Called and they issue the $3 credit without any problems. The call took 12 and 1/2 minutes though so I'm not sure it was worth it! Oh well, thanks for the headsup Op!

Crap, paid way too much for a Christmas gift. Really fun game for my 7 year old (not sure younger kids could handle)

I popped on it. I think my 13 yr old will like to play it, and my 4 yr old will love watching and acting it out. = )

Thanks

Yes they'll pricematch you up to 30 days for their own (or even other major stores) prices. If they hassle you just return your copy since its unopened then rebuy it right away at the new discount price.

While the first one holds a 74 on metacritic, be warned that this has a 64. There are better cheap games out there, even for a kid.

It appears the amazon reviews show it the other way. (see attachment)
I was torn between this and the original Mickey game, but the reviews comment a lot about camera tracking problems in the original game. On the flip side, it appears this second game is quite a bit shorter.

Do you have any other suggestions for better games around this price?
Lots of folks here always on the lookout for fun games for their kids.

Thanks.

Amazon reviews are just as useless as Netflix reviews. GameRankings also has this game at a 67

Your list seems legit. Kirby's epic Yarn shows pictures of the moves so that no reading is required. Zack & Wiki is kind of brainy (may want to skip it). Rayman Origins is amazing, however, there are some parts that require gaming skills. Pikmin is super fun.
