Thanks to Ryan Millar for the heads up.

Still waiting for Theatrhythm Dragon Quest to hit the US.
Are any of these tempting??? Almost all of them are. Just look at those prices!!
Nice but it is still full price on the eshop
The first Theatrhythm is more expensive than Curtain Call, go figure.
I'm tempted to get FFCC Echoes of Time.
Darn. You had me thinking these were eShop prices...then I realized that Dream Drop Distance isn't a retail download on the eShop.
I assume these are USD prices. Anyone know what shipping costs are to Canada?
Well thanks on the impulse purchase, NL. Hahaha, too bad the lowest shipping option is $7. Still the cheapest option anywhere for Chrono Trigger. Now I have to be even more conservative with how much I spend during the Steam fall sale.
I'd like a few of the DS releases.
They have better deals on their Nintendo games than what Nintendo has on their games.
@ikki5 Most of them are DS games though...
Everyone do yo your self a favor and buy Chrono Trigger. It's one of the best games ever!
Dang I've been looking out for Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light for over a year now and this is a REALLY good deal...
But I still have Christmas Shopping to do... >.>
I was so excited to see Curtain Call for ten, but after that ridiculous shipping and handling it's only a little cheaper than eBay. I bought a copy of TWEWY, which was an okay deal, to balance it out. So each game is costing me thirteen dollars. Not too bad.
Shipping is a lot though, that turned me off of the few i wanted
I was just going to buy Chrono Trigger again, but the shipping is more than the game when its on sale lol just can't do it
I wanted another copy of TWEWY for my sister, 358/2 Days as well as Re:coded. Plus Dream Drop Distance as I still have yet to play it. Shame all of them are on the waiting list -_-
Waiting for them to hopefully come in stock before I grab them. The only game out the ones I wanted is Theatrhythm. Might as well just pick up Chrono Trigger again.
The shipping is indeed a turn off, and I'll only bite if I get some more games in cart.
Those prices are a steal. Anyone who doesn't have these games, now is the time!!
@Falchion how much was it?
And I assume it may be more for Canada...
@yokokazuo $8 for 5-10 days, thats outrageous especially cuz i only want to get 1 to 2 games. I am in the US btw
I woulda got TWEWY for my brother but no stock bro.
I would consider "Chrono Trigger" and "Final Fantasy IV" at those prices, but when you add shipping it would still be cheaper to grab the SNES versions off the Wii Shop Channel. Is there anything extra in those DS ports that would make it worth paying a little extra and settling for playing on a small screen?
Shoot. Dragon Quest V is sold out.
Oh well. Seemed to good to be true, turns out it was.
@cmlobue I'm with you. I would snap up a Dragon Quest version right away
Darn i really want to get into the Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts series but shipping is horrible. It's hard trying to get much into those series having mostly only Nintendo consoles as it is.
Sadly, most of the comments around the web are about the shipping. Buying only a game or two makes it not a huge discount, but if you went for a big haul, probably worth it.
I picked up Tactics A2 and WEWY. Square Enix should have offered free shipping for this weekend, or AT LEAST for people who spent over $20-25. My shipping was up to $8.99 for two games. Ugh.
Thanks for the heads up. I just picked up Theatrhythm Curtain Call which is still $39.99 on the Eshop :/ ???
Dang it! Just bought Dragon Quest IV last week for full price!
I tried to order 3 games and apparently, their site's getting SLAMMED! sigh I guess I'll try to order later...
I'm not seeing ANY of these DS games...
@ejamer
Dragon Quest IV and V were in stock this morning when I made my purchase. Probably sold out after the article went up and thousands more Nintendo fans flocked to the website
Early this morning I ordered a crap load of games from their site.
Everything was in stock then. Idk about now but...
$8 for shipping. Haha, I don't think so. That almost doubles the cost of what I want (Curtain Call). Wish these were eShop deals.
Guess I'll have to look around on eBay for it then.
@BulbasaurusRex Chrono Trigger is basically a direct port of the SNES version, with an only an extra cutscene that hints at Magus transforming into Guile from Chrono Cross. Final Fantasy IV, however, has updated 3D graphics and cutscenes.
$6 for DS Chrono Trigger? That's amazing!
Amazon has physical copies of Deus Ex for $14.49. Great game if you don't already have it.
Now that's a sale! I wonder if Curtain Call is that price on the eShop though...
Gotta love when Nintendo life notices Kingdom Hearts.
I never got around to DQ 4 & 5... Maybe now is the time.
I went back to the store, but Chrono Trigger wasn't there anymore.
Chrono Trigger left right before I could but it and that sucks
All of the games I want are now in waiting list -_-
I am really tempted to buy a couple. I have about $40 to spend. Help me community! Give me your top 3 to play out of the DS games. I have Chrono Trigger already. Thanks!
Aw...all the good stuff was delisted or sold out.
Wow, should have just jumped on any deal! They are all waiting list now. I'm guessing that means sold out. Those were incredible deals. $6 for awesome games.
hahah I wanted to get one game. 7.99 for the super saver shipping.... makes it not worth it
UK store doesn't keep old games in stock. I'd buy at least three of those if I could.
Bought Chrono Trigger DS. I'm satisfied.
O_o
I had to bought a used Draque V(E) for 39€ and a unused Chrono(U) for 34€ last month after waiting a year for price drops who never occured... to see this hurts my pouch so bad. xD
Sweet. Chrono Trigger and Theatrhythm it is, then.
EDIT: Dang ol' darn! It won't let me check out with Chrono Trigger. Must have just run out, or there's an error.
Amazing deals. Will be getting Crystal Chronicles games and might get TWEWY.
I remember getting an email from Square about this yesterday seeing the DQ IV and V prices and freaking out, only to realize they were sold out pretty much instantly.
I just checked NA eShop and Deus Ex is still full price. When is this supposed to go live?
And the game's normal price is $49.99, not $39.99.
I know 'cause I'm looking right at it now and it's been on my wishlist for two years now, lol - I've been waiting for a price drop for that long.
Ugh, just realizing this is physical copies... not eShop. My bad. I'm bombarded with e-deals lately so my mind interpreted this info in that way as well.
Oh well.
Great deals, if you buy 5-8 games. Shipping has always been ridiculous with SE's games. Should do free or cheap shipping over 50, but let's face it. They're way too stingy for that. We've all seen the DQ8 / FF7 App Store pricing.
