Please expand on this. Is this code good for other games as well?

edit: Nevermind. I found it.

edit2: Typical GameStop. If you pick in-store pickup, it invalidates the coupon. So you have to pay tax and wait for ground shipping, which makes the $7 off useless to me.

Totally scored some AMAZING Indian food tonight.

Yoshi, the promo code can be used for any game, and it expires tomorrow, so anyone wanting Yakuza 3 on release week had better act now to take advantage of it. I'm not a big fan of tax being added in, but my total came to $50, which is still $5 less than Amazon and I'll get a lot of use out of the 2-player DLC. Oh, and also bought the Cowboy Bebop: Anime Legends remastered series set for $34 on Amazon.

1-25 Edit - Got a new dishwasher at Best Buy for $250, a replacement slim PS2 for $70 to replace my fat PS2 that barely works, and bought Jak II for $6, Pride FC for $10, Disaster Report for $5, and RPG Maker 2 for $6. I was hoping to take advantage of Best Buy's buy 2 Plat. Hits, get 1 free deal, but the games I wanted were gone.

The posts broke inside the cover, probably from either getting squashed or someone overtightening the screws. It caused the LCD to function improperly and half the screen wouldn't light, but a little messing around with it fixed it! Too bad this version of DK3 is awful. Neat music though!

yikes. I only played it via Game & Watch Gallery 4 for DS, but it's still crappy. The modern version isn't any better either. For a Game & Watch that plays like the real DK3, I recommend playing Greenhouse. Very fun double screen game that is the precursor to that game. It's also in Game & Watch Gallery 3 for GBC.
