[Pre Order, Switch] Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (& More), $0 Trade-in of 2 PS5/XSX/Switch Games Valued ≥ $10 @ EB Games

890

Happy Nintendo Direct day, Ninty fans! 🎉

You know these deals…

Have (or find) two current gen console games that EB value at greater or equal to $10, pay no more for upcoming Switch releases, this time including:

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, release Sept-26 2024
Super Mario Party Jamboree, release Oct-17 2024
Mario & Luigi: Brothership, release Nov-7 2024
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, release Jan-16 2025

Also:
Currently available for Luigi's Mansion 2 HD, release Jun-27 2024
$19 on trade-in for Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, release Nov-15 2024

N.B.1 Expiry is 7 days post release, so trade-in is for pre-ordering or in first week of new release.

N.B.2 This is the last available list of eligible games at EB but it's from January and outdated. Employees aren't suppose to provide list, but they can quote the trade-in value when asked. As a rough rule, if the title is priced at ≥$28 pre-owned by EB it will generally slide in at or just above $10.

Happy hunting…

        Either or. I traded 1 PS5 game and 1 Switch game.

        I didn't think of the value itself, I just wanted to jump in on the freebie deal since it comes out in a day.

        If you have more modern/AAA PS5 titles or something more valuable it may very well indeed be worth waiting for better trade deal itself.

          Thanks! I'm waiting for sales end to try my copy of Monark.

            @akte: Oh let us know how that works, I still have mine too :P :P

            • @Stoibs: Sure thing!

            • +1

              @Stoibs: Called EB and they confirmed Monark PS5 is eligible.

              • @akte: Oh wow, thanks for getting back to me!

                I've already traded other things for Zelda, hmm will have to take a look at what else they have.

                Ace Attorney Investigations is part of the deal now apparently.. that's tempting even though it's a little cheaper than normal anyway :D

                  @Stoibs: They have quite a few trade deals for NS:
                  Dragon quest III + $19
                  Romancing saga 2 + $29
                  Couple new mario titles
                  Final Fantasy collection + $39
                  Donkey Kong
                  Sonic shadow generations

                    @akte: Nice. Shame Dragon Quest isn't a complete freebie.
                    I'm interested in Mario+Luigi Brothership also but hoping they do another showcase thingy before I commit.

                    @akte: Thanks again matey, double confirming myself that Monark works with my trade-in I did today 👍

                    Oof; now I have Astro Bot, my Astro Bot Controller, and Ace Attorney Investigations coming out all on the same day! Atleast we're saving some money with these trade promos :D

                      @Stoibs: Yeah, the trade deals are great when using cheaper games.

  • Anybody know if these eligible trade-ins are base price (no membership bonuses) or after? I've had conflicting information and my local have stated base price.

    • +1

      It'll be base price

    • +1

      Minimum $10 base value and before any membership bonus.

  • No

    Gotham Knights - XBX (rep said maybe after current sale ends)
    NBA 2K23 - XBX

    Yes

    Cyberpunk (Standard Edition) - XBX
    Sega Mega Drive Classics - NS

  • Also:
    Currently available for Luigi's Mansion 2 HD(ebgames.com.au), release Jun-27 2024

    N.B.1 Expiry is 7 days post release, so trade-in is for pre-ordering or in first week of new release.

    So you can or can't use these trade ins for Luigi?

  • Wow, some of my things I took in today were worth a little more than the $10 required, and in hindsight I should have dug through for some older stuff instead..

    PS5 - Dead Island 2 ($36 trade value @Lvl 3)
    Switch - 13 Sentinels (from Friday's Big W deal, $36 trade value @Lvl 3)

    Got Zelda Echoes of Wisdom ordered.

  • Found out the following info for these 3 switch games after going in-store today:

    Burnout preowned $28 - trade in for $10
    Need for Speed preowned $34 ($23 on sale) - trade in for $9
    Hotshot preowned $48 ($36 on sale) - trade in for $15

    Seems like they change with the sale price?

  • Traded the following games for Brothership AND Echoes of Wisdom:

    • NS - Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (base version)
    • NS - Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope (base version)
    • NS - Zoids Wild Beast Unleashed
    • NS - Overcooked 2 (original version)
  • +1

    Traded below for Donkey Kong using JB 2 for $30
    PS5 Avatar: The Last Airbender - Quest for Balance
    XBX Diablo IV

    • Hard to find JB stock for Avatar

        I found it in store even though the page said none in stock.

          Good tip.

          I used Diablo with this Switch game today, along with a JB $10 birthday voucher, so my pre-order for Donkey Kong comes in at $20 (and then I can salary package my CC repayments through work so it actually comes to net $10.60 lol).

          I spoke to EB yesterday and Way of the Hunter PS5 comes in at a great resale price. There's definitely a few new titles to JB's 2-for-$30 deal that will work atm, but EB are quick to adjust..

          That completes my pre-orders from this list. Now for the September Direct…

          • @muwu: Awesome! I'm actually planning to get that game to trade for Ace Attorney (still battling if i really want it), thanks for the tip!

      Someone in another post a week or so ago mentioned Metaphor Refantazio (All versions, even PC surprisingly enough) was viable for $39 also, although when they went in store to do the trade the system wouldn't let them.. 🤔

      • Yep system wont let them until the game is released then you can go into store to do the trade in deal

  • Until Dawn Remake for $39
    and Silent Hill 2 Remake for $49
