Looking online at various Walmarts online, I see it for $9, $20, $40, 49.00. Crazy, and it's mostly only the Wii U one. That's what I want anyway, but the guitars are universal this time. (except the dongle, if there is one.)

Yeah, there is actually a sticker on mine that says $49.99.  I guess the store finally got tired of them sitting around and marked them down to $5.  The clerk in the Electronics area said some of the employees bought a couple to flip on ebay.

Ok, I was just out there the other day.  I'm not too concerned about missing out on Guitar Hero. Thanks.
Do you mind saying which one it was?  I was just at the GC Walmart and they didn't have much of anything.  All of their "clearance" stuff was pretty expensive.  I'm not really to eager to get Guitar Hero, but fort $5, I would probably grab one. 

Edwardsville.  There was only one other left when I got mine so it might be gone by now.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Just keep checking Walmart.com with different zip codes. I found it in Hilliard, OH (where I lived before temporarily moving to Florida) for $9.00 and had a friend pick up for me. Target here in Kissimmee/ Davenport/ Clermont (I'm not sure, it's near Orlando) had it for 19.99.

Picked up my preorder for Metroid: Samus Returns CE, the GS Keychain preorder bonus and the amiibo 2-pack

I only preordered the game from GS to get the Keychain, did not want the CE too much. I have the GCU from Bestbuy so I tend to buy there for the 20% off but once i had it in hand i just decided to keep it.

Fun so far, did not get too far yet. Only complaint is the perry move is a tad to slugish, making timing it difficult.

I know there's a difference between need and want. After careful consideration... I NEED that!
To be this good it takes AGES!

Nice, though the amiibo should be swapped, the Metroid is wider and covers the Samus image on the system a bit. :P

Yeah, but the Metroid Amiibo is actually facing the wrong way. Once turned around, he'll be leaning away from the 3DS and everything will look better! ;)

Picked up "Battlesport" CIB for Sega Saturn.  The PS1 version is super common, but apparently the Saturn version is quite rare.

Regarding Guitar Hero Live, I think every Target has em for every system for $11.98 now. They may be marked 19.99 (which is still pretty good), but for me, rang up 11.98. This was both in Ohio and Florida, so chances are pretty good to get it for 12 bucks. Not as good as Bear's $5.00, but pretty decent price. The battery packs were marked down to 12 or 13 also (may be cheaper, I didn't scan em), but ebay has those for about 5 bucks too.

Speaking of which, if anyone's had any luck getting composite video out on a Pi 3 to work, PM me the steps you took. I'm trying to confirm if my settings are correct before I order a new cable
