Still sitting on the fence on your Super Smash Bros. Brawl purchase? Perhaps this Toys R Us deal, giving you 50% off a second game with a purchase of Brawl will light a fire under you. We're talking Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros Treasure for $15 or Mario & Sonic At the Olympic Games for $25, people.
Sure, the rest of the Wii offerings may peak at Tony Hawk's Proving Ground, but it's not such a bad deal. Head on over to the official Toys R Us site to see if there's anything that strikes your cheap-ass(TM) fancy.

You see, deals like this are why people have Completion Anxiety Disorder lol.
Already bought it, damn =p
Yeah, I got Zack and Wiki days before Galaxy. I still haven't finished Zack and Wiki!
I was considering doing this... Then I just went to Best Buy and they matched the deal :D Brawl + Zack & Wiki + RewardZone points = win =)
Was tempted to get Mario and Sonic and just sell it for profit...
Don't be fooled, it's only off select titles, of which Z&W is the only worthwhile deal.
Great deal for any who does not own Zack and Wiki and Brawl.
Nice... To bad it is already in possesion.
Yep, this is what I did, combined with my toys r us employee discount I definitely got a great deal.
However, Zack & Wiki is still wrapped....Brawl is just too damn fun.
To late i already have it im happy with it:)
Wtf? Toys R Us didn't have Zack & Wiki even cataloged online or in store just last week when I tried to buy it >:(
So Zack and Wiki is down to $30 now eh?
The question remains:
Why haven't I picked it up yet?
Then I realize... Backlog. Biiiiig backlog. And a newborn.
Oooh....I want to get the game "Super Smash Brothers Brawl Guide" for only $15 with the sale.
And now I really mourn my lack of a Wii.
Of course, if you bought a Wii just to play SSBB you won't have any of its older games, so Metroid 3, Zelda Twilight Princess, Resident Evil 4, or Super Mario Galaxy could fill the half price slot.
Don't be hating now; there are at least 6-7 really good Wii games out there that the 'core' audience can dig.
what about Canada?
"Still sitting on the fence on your Super Smash Bros. Brawl purchase?"
Oh yes, but I've got plenty of time, living in Ireland and all. Maybe when I get a launch date I'll make my mind up.
I was afraid that Zack and Wiki was going to disappear from shelves so I just bought it recently. I could always get a second copy since I know one of my friends will want one and by the time he gets around to buying it, the game will have probably disappeared from shelves.
And the rest of that list is incredibly underwhelming.
crap, already got no more heroes, zack & wiki and pre-paid smash.
that said, to all others:
Get No More Heroes. It is awesome. If they dont have that, get Zack & Wiki. Still nothing? uh, get Elebits.
Show the 3rd parties that we support fun & quality.
@TheIrishNinja: Elebits is indeed amusing as hell.
No More Heroes is an "interesting" experience also. ;D
Good picks there!
@bashpenguin: @TheIrishNinja: @Witzbold:
Too bad NMH isn't on the list. Sonic & Mario and Zack & Wiki are the two decent games you can get with this offer.
@IntelSilver: Yeah, I wouldn't mind knowing if this involves Canada as well.
I just got done a 2 and a half hour Brawl session.. Tell you what that Random Character feature is the best thing they put in the game. Also special brawl with high gravity with 1.4 damage ratio brings it close enough to Melee to make it playable.
BTW.. Pick up Zack and Wiki for the 15 dollars.. Best offer ever!
@Hiro0015: Too bad Toys R Us doesn't sell NMH.
@Hiro0015: ah, that's what i get for not reading it then. crap.
@Unlocked everyone in Brawl!: they dont? i bought my copy there the other week.
I'm in luck!
I have both Zack & Wiki and Sonic & Mario rented from GameTap.
I'm so trading them in!!!
I'll pass
Costco had a copy (and about 25 others) sitting on a shelf around 5 o'clock launch day.
I didn't even go there to get SSBB, it was just a bonus.
Oh yeah, and it was only $43.59 + tax
COSTCO FTW
I also have a handle of Jager as I play games online on Gamefly...
@mferrari: and if Costco still has a lenient return policy on video games - beat game, return for refund, repeat
why would you play another game if you already have brawl?
Damn you, pre-order!
:( I submitted this tip. Guess I didn't submit correctly or didn't use the tool.
@Hiro0015:
I have NMH as well. :D First game I played on the Wii, it was fun. I'm currently playing through it again on Bitter mode.
Meh, I don't own Zach & Wiki or Brawl... hmm might have to look into this :D
I bought both on Sunday... 5am when the Toys R Us ad got emailed to me I was like Sweeet.
awesome! SSBB is sold out every where in town right now... and a few people have been telling me to try Zack & Wiki. i actually wasn't going to buy either as i still have like 3 games on the Wii that are half done and one i never even played yet (MP3).
oh well... SSBB and Zack & Wiki are on their way to my mailbox now! can't really go wrong with a $15 game that reviewed as well as Zack & Wiki did.
Omg, and I just bought SSBB at Wal Mart. Like an hour ago. GRrrrr.
Damn it, when am I going to find a deal on LEGO Star Wars or NiGHTS?!
Ah shit, just bought both Smash Bros and Zack and Wiki for full price!
Ha, when I came to pick up my Pre-order from Brawl at Toys R Us, they showed the 50% off with Zack and Wiki. I instantly got it. :D
Yea, I picked up Zack & Wiki when I got my copy of Smash Bros. Brawl. I had to ask the clerk if $30 was the retail price or the discounted. So for $15, I couldn't go wrong.
I'm lovin' Zack & Wiki too! You guys didn't steer me wrong.
got this yesterday it was a good deal. i didnt know about the deal with Z&W until i checked out the game at the register, but the lady nicely exchanged my purchase and let me rebuy it with Z&W.
and finally got to use my $25 SMG gift certificate. $40 out the door with 2 great games
i'm sure capcom will be pleased with the sudden influx of sales for Z&W. albeit less than what they want to sell them for...
and risking a public flogging, i have to say i'm not liking SSBB. I never owned any Smash Bros. games, i fail to see the fun in this. is there any strategy to this? Do I need to get a GC controller to fully appreciate it?
and let me add one more thing: Where the f is Luigi!!!
No one has an excuse to not own Zack & Wiki now.
@VioletArrows:
I got NiGHTS for cheap, and I still regret it. If you can't rent it, don't bother with the game at all. It's SO bad. The voice acting is atrocious, the cut scenes are incredibly ugly as well as unskippable, the game doesn't control anywhere near as well as the original and the platforming sections are just plain un-fun.
You're better off trying to hunt down a Saturn and the original. Or modding your PS2 and importing the remake from Japan.
Got mine at Sam's Club ($50.98 with tax) and yes I am Sam's bitch :(
Lol. I didn't know cheap-ass had it's own trademark.
I somehow highly doubt that Toys-R-Us will have No More Heroes. Galaxy? Sure!
Maybe some Mario Party 8, since you already have at least 3 friend willing to mooch off your Wii anyway. Why not?
@Demaar: I actually already have those, but the Saturn needs a new motor to spin the disc. I dunno. I just feel like I have to, even though for most people it didn't live up to the 11 years of hype.
@VioletArrows:
Even ignoring the hype. It's just plain a bad game. One of the worst I've ever had the misfortune of owning.
