Been trying to find good prices for 3DS games but haven't had much luck, mainly looking for Fire Emblem Awakening and Pokemon Y.
Just curious what sites (if any) you guys use to get the best deals.
For those interested, the best price I've found for Pokemon Y is 37.50 @ Beatthebomb. http://www.beatthebomb.com.au/games/3ds/pokemon_y
ozgamegoat isn't good at updating prices after a deal has expired and the prices when listed can be $2 to $4 different from the real price
Regarding the best place to buy games I would use a mix between Beat The Bomb, Target and Big W, although for me there's no local BigW so its just BTB and Target unless BigW's deal is amazing. The big importers + Blockbuster/Vid Ezy just sadly aren't worth it now.
I agree with Fire Emblem, its fantastic! Keep in mind for FE that its RRP is $70 while Pokemon is $60. Nintendo seemed to have changed their 3DS RRP about mid last year.
Yeah first party published games are tuff to find on decent sales after they've been out a while. Best bet is UK copies.
Big W has a heap of new releases for $44 in their latest catalogue.
However, you should probably steer clear of Yoshis New Island at that price.
Kirby forevaaas.
Games I play most on my 3DS are monster hunter 3U (cos I have a wii u), and pokemon x.
Id recommend bravely default, more so than fire emblem, but fire emblem was still a great game.
I too, back up your recommendation of Bravely Default, even if Ringabel ruins every single instance of dialogue lol.
However, back on topic, I picked up Paper Mario Sticker Star at EB yesterday for 28 bucks, which is the cheapest it has been anywhere, and you can get Kid Icarus Uprising for as little as 19 bucks if you manage to find a pre-owned one (And that game is amazing)
Go to EB during these sales. That's the best place for 3DS games right now.
Kinda wish Big W still had some older titles.
Do you think Ocarina of Time will be included in that? or Fire Emblem?
Neither of those are there anymore.
You could try to find them at EB during these sales for as little as $38 preowned I'd say
ozgamegoat is pretty good to compare prices, for example

Also pretty good to look at the different sites etc.
Lately I've been just buying games from big W or target when they are on special, it used to be ozgameshop.com before the aus dollar dropped making it a lot less competitive.
Ebay is usually pretty good for second hand games in my experience.
There was a bit of a shortage for Fire Emblem in Australia so you might have to import it, its $53 at ozgameshop. Fire Emblem is a great game would recommend out of ten.
