Toys 'R' Us Black Friday Deals
Yup. More Black Friday deals. This time from Toys 'R' Us. Sure, they're not a blue chip games retailer, but if you're in the market for Guitar Hero or a PlayStation 2, they might be worth a look. Particularly for the PS2 deal, since every purchase nets you a DVD remote, a copy of...21 on DVD (OK, not so hot) and six free games. Those six are probably from a list, but hey, free is free.

Toys "R" Us Offers Buy 3 Get One free
Kotakuite Jose sends in news of the most recent Toys "R" Us game deal. In this week's circular they are advertising a Buy 3 Get 1 Free deal on their entire stock of video games. The sale runs from tomorrow, Dec. 16th through Dec. 24th. This is a great opportunity to fill in some of the gaps in your collection or pick up some games for holiday gifts. The offer is also good online so you won't have to wade through the crowds of stressed out parents and unruly ankle biters to get to your favorite titles. Sure, it's not the greatest gaming sale that ever was, but free is free and that's all good in my book. -

NPD Data Loses Toys R Us Sales
The most recent sales data from the NPD Group is missing a key retailer, reports GameDaily, as Toys R Us data was not factored into October's monthly sales charts. Martin Zagorsek VP at The NPD Group told GameDaily that "we typically add a few retailers and lose one or two" and defends the company's results, adding "overall our market coverage has not changed very much compared to last year." More details on the change in NPD numbers at the original report. More »

Toys "R" Us Offers $25 Gift Card With Super Mario Galaxy Purchase
It looks like the Super Mario Galaxy deals just keep on coming. First GameStop offers free two day shipping and now Toy "R" Us is getting in on the action too. Purchase your copy of the game that will make you dust off your Wii (in-store) from Toys "R" Us and you'll be rewarded with a $25 dollar gift card. Pretty sweet deal right there seeing as it's about half off of another new game (depending on the game). That's almost enough to make me want to get in the car, drive the ten miles to the nearest TRU and fight the hordes of screaming children to get it. More » -

Toys-R-Us Video Game Mania
This week's Toys-R-Us Sunday circular is boasting a huge sale on all video games. Buy two games and get one free. In case you were curious about the asterisk at the end, it refers to a note at the bottom of the page that states the obligatory "The free game will be the one that's the lowest price of the three." The sale is available online and in store and goes from today Oct. 14 until next Saturday, October 20. My guess is that as the week goes on, the pickings will get slim, so put on your running shoes and warm up the credit card, we're going shopping! More » -

Snag Manaphy At Toys R Us Saturday
Those of you who follow Pokemon fanatically know what a bitch it is to get your hands on a Manaphy, the legendary water Pokemon who can only be found via an egg transferred from Pokemon Ranger. Well kotakuite Agies has informed us that this Saturday from 12-3PM, Toys R Us stores around the country are offering the rare critter via in-store download, along with $5 off any DS game you buy when you stop by to continue your catching of them all. Otherwise you either have to trade or suffer through Pokemon Ranger, which is considered in some countries an advanced form of torture. -

The Littlest PS3 Hater
Angry fanboys are getting younger and younger these days. Fun Tech Talk is reporting that a thirteen year old South Carolina boy was picked up by Toys R Us security after it was discovered that he had written "PS3 Sucks" on twenty three plastic PS3 game security cases with indelible marker. The boy's parents couldn't be reached so he was put in the custody of child services (scary). When asked why he did it, the boy answered, "I have an Xbox and I hate Playstation. I found the marker lying on the shelf and I guess I was bored. Sorry." More » -

Toys "R" Us Jumps on the 360 Price Drop Bandwagon
The notorious Cheapy D brings even more proof that the rumored Xbox 360 price drop is indeed for real. Yesterday he had a Wal-mart ad showing the cut and now he has procured another (blurry) photo of an ad showing the 360 being priced at $349. This time the ad is from Toys R Us stating a "price break" and slated for an August 12 street date. As more and more information comes in it's becoming more difficult to brand this one as rumor, but of course without an official word from Microsoft on the subject it will have to remain as such. Still, I think we all know what's coming... More » -

Rumor: Wii's Available Tomorrow at TRU and Wal-Mart
The rumor mill is at it again and this time it's promising a windfall of Wiis! Joystiq is reporting that Wii's will be available tomorrow at Toys R Us and will appear in TRU's weekly ad. Commenters to the article included some Wal-Mart employees who claim that the elusive system will also be available at their stores. Website DigitalSomething.com seems to corroborate this information with their posting of several pages allegedly taken from the upcoming TRU circular. The scans however, do not show any dates so I can in no way confirm their accuracy. More » -

Toys R Us Overprices Wii Cards
Nintendo Wii Points are basically the equivalent of money to spend in the Wii Shopping Channel, with 100 Wii points being equal to $1. That is unless you buy them from Toys R Us. Kotakuite Bill discovered that his local Toys R Us is selling the 2000 point card for $24.99. It's the same price on their internet. More »

PlayStation 3 Kiosks Hits Toys "R" Us In NYC
Destructoid's Robert Summa, surely en route to scope out Tickle Me Extreme Elmo's to shill on eBay this holiday season, got some footage and photo snaps of the freshly installed PlayStation 3 kiosk at the flagship Toys "R" Us in Times Square. The above video shows that the kiosks are equipped with (at the very least) a Motorstorm demo, but not all are currently operational. Check the D for photos not nearly as artifacted as that YouTube clip. More »

Toys R Us Taking PS3 Pre-Orders
A Next Gen Insider went by a Toys R Us and put down a deposit for a Playstation 3. For a mere $50 he's guaranteed a Playstation 3, 60 GB hard drive and two games. Of course, he has no clue how much all of that will cost him. I wonder if they have started taking Nintendo Revolution pre-orders? More » -
