Curious to see if any of these deals actually happen. Especially the Nintendo games like Super Mario RPG. They do not like making their games affordable anymore.
I miss Nintendo Select, Player's Choice, and the like.
This GameStop sale is strongest for Mario and Luigi: Brothership, Super Mario RPG, and Suikoden, with several pickups landing at $15 or less and some Pro stacks cutting the total further. The prices look especially good for Nintendo titles and for games that have held closer to $20 to $35 elsewhere. The main catch is inventory and fulfillment, since many listings are out of stock, pickup orders get canceled, and online orders can arrive open, gutted, or in generic cases instead of sealed. It is a sharp deal if local stock is available and condition matters less than price.
Players wanting a cheap single-player RPG, because Brothership is charming, lightweight, and worth $15 for kids or Paper Mario-style fans.
Availability is highly local: some stores had multiple copies on shelves even when the website showed out of stock, while other shoppers found nothing within 100 miles or no ship-to-home option. Checking in person can reveal stock the site misses.
Some copies arrive sealed, but others arrive open-box, gutted, or in generic black cases even when ordered as new. In-store pickup gives you a chance to inspect and refuse a copy that isn't sealed, while online orders can be a gamble on condition.
Yes, the $10 off 2 new games Pro promo can stack in store, and some shoppers also used a $5 monthly reward on top. That brought two new games down to about $15 total or roughly $16.xx out the door depending on tax.
At $15, Brothership is widely treated as a strong buy for Nintendo fans, especially if you want a charming, lightweight RPG. A practical caveat is that it is single-player, and some buyers dislike it or think it is only average.
The $13.99 listings are pre-owned copies, while $15 is the new-copy price. Some pages also show different prices depending on how you reach the listing, so the site can be inconsistent.
Brothership is pretty fun and any time you can get a Nintendo title at that price, it's a buy - but how they made a game based on the Mario Bros combining and managed to not make it a two player game is still baffling.
My kids were so disappointed they couldn't play it together.
🤣
Everywhere within 100 miles of me is out of stock on the ones I actually want. Figures. Best Buy won't price match GameStop. They say they're not their direct competitors, but Amazon is. Such BS.

Went in to pick up my order. They gave me two black cases not sealed original cases. Asked them I ordered new not used! They told me it's new game but just don't have the cases since people steals the prints all the time and decided to do different way to sell new games? I wonder if I got fooled. I haven't ordered games from game stop for a while and I don't understand why they changes so much.
They canceled my store pickup order for Mario RPG, so I ordered on to ship to my house instead AND they duplicated my order. God, I hate Gamestop so much.
Thanks OP, went to my local GS and they had one last copy of Brotherhood available (the infamous 'new' unsealed copy). They were OOS of Suikoden for switch/ps5 so I ended up grabbing Crisis Core.
$10 off 2 new games, stacked with $5 off for monthly pro and got both for $16.xx out the door!
I was gonna play brotherhood regardless so for this time it's ok that it wasn't sealed.
