I bought Pokemon Diamond at Walmart today and it was $39.94?!? I found out after I bought it that literaly everywhere is selling it for $34.99. Even Nintendo SRP is $34.99! What gives? Why is Walmart charging $5 over and ripping people off?

I refuse to buy it until the price drops a little or some store puts it on sale. $45CDN is $10 more than every other DS release in the past year and is not cool. Obviously Nintendo (or the stores, or both) think they can gouge just because it's Pokemon, and judging by the masses of kids I saw today, it's working.

So much for voting with wallets.

Crikey! I just saw the Circuit City and Fry's ads. I will be taking both of these into Walmart and getting a refund of the difference. If they don't match prices, I'll get a refund and then buy it from Fry's...
