I was going to justify this image with a convoluted comment on how President's Day is on Monday and without the Great Emancipator, we would not have a word like "badonkadonk" in the popular lexicon. Then I realized that Moon received a great price drop this week. Further proof that the simplest explanations are almost always the best ones.
Let's do that Discountoid thang. As mentioned, GameStop has cut the price of Renegade Kid's Moon by over 30%, which is pretty sexy for a game Dale North enjoyed. Target also has Wario Land: Shake It! for a great price that you should check out.
And then there's... not much. President's Day is known for having great sales, but they're usually limited to bigger ticket items like appliances. I think the retailers figure folks are going to be in stores anyway. Although, there might be a few surprises in store for you if you click the link below and see the full list of deals this week.

Also that's a shiny ass.
but if you need one you can always say it's because of the "shake it" in wario land
I approve hard.
For $20 I think it's a good buy, although you will end up backtracking through the levels after you get halfway through the game. If that sort of thing bothers you, then you will probably only play through the game once. Personally, I found the combat really enjoyable, so I ended up replaying the game two more times and beating DMD mode.
I've spent enough on games this past month anyway that I haven't even gotten close to playing.
"Moon" and "shake it" have been used. You guys left me NOTHING.
I'd like to (World Series) poke her... 2008.
That is one HUGE "discount"
Might pick up Devil May Cry. Not sure though.
"Logitech Driving Force GT for Xbox 360"
Tiny error in that. Don't mean to nag, but the Driving Force GT is PS3 only. I'm sure of that.
But who cares? Everyone is just looking at the pic.
Correct on both counts. Sorry for the errors. Thanks!
Probably going to finally get GTAIV.
It's not only Destructoid that needs more images like that. Life in general needs more images like this one.
And um yea about the games....what was I thinking about again?
Awwwwright.
I second that motion... motion... back and forth motion on Vida... hard...
WTF was I talking about?
