Amazon.com has another good deal of the day today for Super Paper Mario. It's dropped $20 to $29.99 from the original $50.
This is one of the Wii's better games, so I'd recommend jumping on this while you can.
Also, don't forget, Amazon.com has video game related deals in their gold box lightning deals all day today, so keep your eyes peeled for other bargains, cheapskates.
Update: Their deal of the day, Super Paper Mario, has sold out along with their Lightning Deals for Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Metroid Prime 3 and MySims. There's only one more deal left at 9pm EST for a "super happy fun fun" game. My best guess would be Wario Ware: Smooth Moves. Better be quick if you plan on snapping these up, Metroid sold out in a matter of seconds (before I could snag a copy).
Another Update: the final game was The Simpsons Game. Needless to say, they're all gone by now.

Thriftbot: The Orange Box
It's always nice to see an Amazon deal of the day that isn't Hannah Montana or Bratz related, and today is a particularly nice treat.
Get The Orange Box for PC for $30. That's worth it for Portal and Team Fortress 2 alone. Consider Half Life 2 and HL2: Episodes 1 & 2 bonuses. Better act fact before it's replaced with some Suite Life of Zack and Cody game.

Thriftbot: Games on the Cheap
Do you like shooting aliens in the face? Do you like contrived sci-fi plotlines? Do you like being shot in the face by 12 year olds only to be called countless racist and homophobic slurs and be teabagged by them post-mortem? Then, if you’re one of the 4 Xbox360 owners that have yet to get their tickets onto the Halo 3 Hype-train now might be the time to do so.
Best Buy is currently serving up some Halo 3 for $38, $22 off the normal price.
I’d hop on it soon as this will probably be a limited time offer and I don’t foresee Microsoft’s multiplayer monolith getting another pricedrop like this until it inevitably becomes a “Greatest Hits” title.
If you own a Wii and, for some ungodly reason, do not yet own Zack and Wiki then now is your chance to experience one of the most excellent adventures since two dudes discovered a time traveling phone booth. Go buy now!
Why is it so important that you go out and buy this? Simple – if people don’t go out and buy good games, the good games don’t come back. Don’t let Zack & Wiki go the way of Psychonauts and Earthbound.
Need more incentive to pick it up? Fine, how about the fact that most retail outlets are carrying it for $10 off its already bargain price, dropping it to a svelte $30. I thought you’d see things my way. Now go buy!
