ShadowStar83x Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Amazon has announced a new benefit for their Amazon Prime and I'm actually quite excited. From the time a preorder is offered on Amazon.com to two weeks after release, Amazon will apply a 20% discount to any physical title. It's similar to Best Buy's Gamer's Club Unlocked. However, since Amazon has no sales tax in most states (for now, at least) and free release day delivery, I actually think it's better!Amazon Prime Offers 20% Off New Video GamesI've canceled all of my existing preorders (except the Megadimension Neptunia VII Limited Edition since Amazon doesn't offer it) and put them on Amazon.

1973456 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I've canceled all of my existing preorders (except the Megadimension Neptunia VII Limited Edition since Amazon doesn't offer it) and put them on Amazon. Did the same and put it all towards the Street Fighter V Collector's Edition which was on pre-order deal for $79.99 yesterday (prime-only). Not sure if that deal is still up for anyone that is interested, it appears at checkout. Seems like the better option for buying games for me at the moment, free shipping and no taxes. The only drawback is waiting for the game to arrive but I can live with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) free shipping and no taxes. If this comes to EU/UK Amazon, I'm sold, like, 100%. Edited January 13, 2016 by Satoshi Ookami 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 In the boardrooms of the shitty game developers right after getting the call that Amazon, possibly their largest retailer, is doing this: "Great news everybody! Update all development and release cycles to have day one downloadable content. If Amazon pulls the pre-order numbers that we expect with this new Prime deal, it won't matter what we ship! This is the easiest money we ever made!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEMON Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Sounds like a good deal if you shop from there often. Not sure if I would sub to it if it came to the UK version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_DeityX1 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Perfect for me. I always buy things on Amazon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLamb121 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I just saw this maybe 20 minutes ago. I think this is the best thing ever, as buy everything off of Amazon. I already saw that my Dark Souls 3 pre-order is down to basically $110 now. Yay for savings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowStar83x Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I did it for Dragon Quest VII and VIII 3DS last night. Had the discount done for VII, but not VIII. Still will use GCU for older titles since the 20% off is only the first two weeks. Edited January 19, 2016 by ShadowStar83x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
