Best Buy has a sale on right now... online most stuff is sold out, but you can still find the games in stores, and yes, they WILL ring up at the sale price -- none of these were marked in the store at the lower price, but at the register, they rung up as marked below. :) (List of titles on sale: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525096 )
These games are new.

Kirby Mass Attack - $8 - Looks pretty good... I've been interested in this one. I've played the demo, it seems fun... The game isn't listed on Best Buy's website, but does indeed ring up at the sale price if they have a copy, as this store did.
Lego Battles Ninjago, as a part of the Lego Ninjago Brickmaster Lego set and game collection - $10 (140 piece Lego set and the game above, which is the second of the two Lego Battles Lego-themed DS RTS games) - I put together the first Lego set option. This Brickmaster line has a small lego set with book that lists five different groups of models you can build, with instructions for each one, plus of course the game came in the box too. It's a small lego set and mediocre game, but still, the price is decent, so why not.

Pikmin 2 - $5 - Yes, I've never owned this game before. The Best Buy website claimed that they had no copies of the game, but in the actual store, there several copies were.
Used games (from other stores, of course, not Best Buy!)
PC

Curling 2: Take-Out Weight - $1, complete in box, maybe unopened. Yes, it's a curling simulation. Why did I get it? Well... it was $1, complete. The entertainment value alone of actually having such a thing has to be worth a dollar... this game was probably only released in Canada, too (the box is dual French/English, with fold-out stuff on each side in each language), so I wonder how it ended up here...
Piranha - $2, disc in jewelcase. Cheap, obviously low-budget Asteroids knockoff I'd never heard of before. OGt it because it looked moderately interesting, and promised a techno soundtrack... and I'd never heard of it, and it was pretty cheap. Why not try it out?
Saturn
--
NBA Jam T.E. - $4, complete - I have this for PC, SNES, and GB, but not PS1/Saturn... well, now I have one of those versions too. I do have the very similar College Slam for PS1, but not Jam TE.
Virtual Open Tennis - $2, complete - average looking Tennis game
Playstation
--
Rage Racer -$3, complete
Game Boy Color
--
Dragon Warrior III - $2, cart only - pretty good find I think!
