Black Friday 2014

[banditwolf]

I was hoping to pick up PS+ as well. Maybe cyber monday.
I haven't seen too much either. A few games $20-25 I may grab and a few blu-rays and SD cards. I'm just not seeing the deals yet.

Black Friday is definitely hit or miss. Nothing can top the year where I wound up with a PS3 slim and 6 games for under $300. Crazy.

last year was meh.

The leaked or advertised deals thus far aren't too bad. Definitely not looking like one of those winding up with a fat stack of games black fridays. Shocked there's no discount deals on PS4s, but the ones on the NSAbox one look good. I will still likely wind up getting a WiiU despite their sucky deals.

Still hoping retailers are holding out till the last minute on revealing deals... Particularly Newegg. They USED to have killer BF/CM sales. Past couple of years have been lame. Still hoping for a great video card deal!

Amazon has had terrible deals. Simply just junk that they want to get rid of. At least last year, that had some good games, toys, etc. I remember getting SMT Soul Hackers and Skyrim for next to nothing

I feel the same way. But the real Amazon BF/CM deals are those spontaneous lightning deals you don't know what they are until they're there. The ones that seemingly sell out instantly as soon as they're revealed.

Nothing calls out my name much, really. I don't have a lot of money to spend right now so I guess that is a good thing. Gamestop is putting Gran Turismo 6 at 20 bucks, so I might get that. It would be nice to find a deal on another year is PS+ but haven't seen any thus far.

Yeah nothing is popping for that this year. A lot of people hoarded up big time last year.

Amazon has been trying to push Black Friday badly over here in recent years. It´s a tradition that´s completely unknown here to most people. Same with Halloween, btw, but the retail industry has managed to create some buzz over it. No trick-or-treating, but a lot of Halloween themed stuff in shops every year.

Anyway, Amazon´ve been holding sales (with lightning deals) for the whole week leading up the Black Friday for the last couple of years.

Amazon Germany deals page: http://www.amazon.de/gp/angebote/ref...pf_rd_i=301128

The first year, I got some fairly good stuff, but it´s become less and less interesting imo.

Not really, here in Canada they just started doing Black Friday within the past few years.

But it's not as big as say in the US were they have so many more deals and sales.

I looked at Amazon, and also looked at cheapassgamer.com and didn't really see anything noteworthy. I'll continue to look and update the first OP with anything good.

^Amazon has been adding stuff as they go, and many of them are just seeing what other retailers are doing and they are matching it. For instance the 16gb vita card from Gamestop will be onsale tomorrow on Amazon, but it is only the 16gb.

I have an 8GB Vita card I got for $7 shipped last black friday that I still have unopened and never got a Vita yet LOL.

Well, barring some surprises, my Black Friday shopping has basically been completed. I picked up a 2DS and some games for my nephew (shhhhh! I didn't ask his parents permission), and a bunch of movies for me. I might pick up a few Vita memory cards (it is live on Gamestop.com, but I will wait for Amazon for no tax or shipping) to give to some friends that picked up vitas/vitatvs.

One thing of potential note from Amazon is the SD and Micro SD Card sales for SanDisk and Samsung going on right now... but yeah, gaming wise it's pretty slim pickings unless you're following their hourly sales of certain games (that last for an hour only, I believe). The one I'd want to look into is at 12:10AM tonight, I think, and I have work in the morning tomorrow. Not gonna happen.
