    prices on Nintendo games..up here in Canada they are about 50-60
    dollars a piece.Any help would be appreciated!

225.1Try Mall of N.H.CIMNET::TOMPKINSWed Mar 08 1989 14:5011
    I don't know the Merrimack area all that well, but if I were you,
    I'd find some way to get over to the Mall of New Hampshire in
    Manchester on Tuesday.  If I'm correct, they have a Kay-Bee Toy
    Store there, and Kay Bee gets new shipments on Tuesday (at least
    this is true for their Mass. stores).
    
    Sounds like you can save some money in the States...most games are
    $40 to $45 here.  Your problem is scarcity...the very popular games
    are still hard to get.

Child World in the Nashua Mall (not Pheasant Lane) has some games for $29.95,
but most were in the $44.00 ball park.

    Do prices of games normally go up during the Christmas season or is
    it just Child World.
    
    Last night I was at the Child World in Nashua.   Seems a lot of the
    games went up $5-$10.
    
    Batman was selling for $39.99 for the past few months.  Now up to
    $49.99.
    
    Crystalis was selling for either $44.99 or $49.99 and is now at $54.99.
    
    Duck Tales was $44.99 and is now $49.99.
    
    There were lots of others that I notices were higher.

    They probably do.  I noticed last year at Toys R Us that games were
    cheaper in Jan/Feb than in Dec.
