I just heard word from my boy that he just traded in 5 used DS games for a brand spankin' new Nintendo DS at EB Games... The crimson/black version....

It doesn't list it on the EB website....So I went to the EB Games at Scarborough Town Centre to check it out... and it's true! The only stipulation is that the value of the used game has to be listed at $8 or more, which isn't too bad, but you can also trade in old xbox or ps2 games too (but the $8 rule still applies).

You can't bundle up cheaper games to make up $8 either!

Since I've been wantin' the Crimson/Black DS for a while still, I figured this is a good time to clean house of some old games anyways, and try to get a new DS!

If you want a PSP too, they got a similar deal: Trade in 8 games and you get a PSP. (I think the value is greater than $8 too, but don't quote me on that.)

Go check it out if you don't play your older games once you finish 'em.... and I'm probably gonna look into a cyclo evolution (If you don't know about it, google it! It'll be worth your while!) =)

Makes sense though.

***Update***

I just came back from EB Games Markville, EB Games Scarborough Town Centre, & EB Games on Milner/Morningside. (Don't EVER try to trade your games at EB Marville though, the manager there is NOT helpful whatsoever, and made it pretty difficult to deal with. He even said "He'd get in trouble from the head office if he tried to help me out). Luckily the Scarborough Town Centre AND Milner/Morningside EB Games were both very helpful.... and all-in-all, I got my DS!

The Nintendo DS cost me:

(1) Super Mario Bros. (DS)
(1) Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team (DS)
(1) Metroid Prime Hunters (DS)
(1) NBA 2K7 (Xbox 360)
(1) Top Spin 2 (Xbox 360)

Total Value: $63 (At EB Re-Sale Value)

The regular price is $129.99 (+ taxes). So that's a savings of over $83!I highly recommend anyone with extra games to go out and get a free DS ('specially if you're NOT playing those games anyways!

I also traded in:
(1) NBA Ballers (Xbox)
(1) Feel The Magixc (DS)
(1) NBA Street Vol. 2 (Xbox)
(1) Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

for a set of protective stickers (for the Nintendo DS). All the stylus rubbing will form scratches on the DS screens over time...

Great deal, go check it out now!
