I agree with you on this disc only games suck . They had a copy of trilogy at the same store but no case otherwise i would have pick it up... On a kind of related note, pandora's tower is priced $20 new and $19 used at gamestop.

Go figure, the one I bought is dirt cheap now, and the one I missed out on is expensive.

Yeah, I might bite at the $90 Metroid Prime Trilogy, should any Gamestops in Canada get copies. If not, I might be SOL again.
If it's a game I really want, I don't mind paying market value. What I really have a problem with is that these games are being sold "used" even though they are technically new. I'll happily pay $90 for a brand new, SEALED copy of MPT, and even though the only difference is the lack of plastic wrap, it bugs the hell outta me.
Retro Deckades:
Considered ordering a copy of MPT through GameStop's website, but they want $20 to ship the game to Canada. F*** that noise!

For years I have always contended that Gamestop is actually a front for Satan and his Hellish empire. Any kind of dealing with that business boils down to a Faustian bargain. You have to sell your soul to get a good deal at that place. Of course Nintendo plays a hand in this due to them only releasing a limited number of the games into the US. If they were smart they would relase a second wave of the game at all retailers and then put the game on the eShop of the Wii U.
