I can vouch for these all being good games at that price. Doubtful any will be rare or valuable later, but definitely not hard to get a buck's worth of value from playing them. (The snowboarding games really need a Wii Balance Board to be worth playing though.)

If you can find them their are some good games on this list. A lot of stores have started gutting Wii games valued at less then $10 resulting in a bunch of disc only games. A friend of mine who works at a store saves them instead of throwing them in case someone wants the case. His trunk is full of DS and Wii cases.

Not $1 but I did manage to pick up Lost in Shadow CIB for $4.50 yesterday. I've been looking for that one for a while now. Unfortunately I couldn't find 2 other games in that price range to take advantage of the B2G1 they had going.

Angry Birds Starwars ToysRUs Ebay $1.00 New shipped store
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Angry-Birds-Sta ... Sw4UtWRxgg

I know Angry Birds is a simple game, but the Wiimote seems perfectly matched for this style of game. A great price above, I jumped on this. I try to buy all disc based games CIB, looking online I found a PAL PDF manual.

From what I have read, the NTSC Wii Angry Birds Star Wars has no manual!

Angry Birds Trilogy comes with a thin Game Manual, but what about the Wii Angry Birds Star Wars version? Did it only come with the Safety precaution brochure?

Not one of my stores near me has it

Not one of my stores near me has it

Click the link to buy it for a buck and shipped free for pickup at your local ToysRUs.
Mine arriving on Dec 3rd, just in a couple of days.

[mas]

I did that and they returned my money back

[retrosportsgamer]

Yeah I just tried and got an error "Your request cannot be processed" in paypal and then they credited me back the $1.06 immediately. Now that store is no longer on the list when I go back. Going to try one more.

@crt now that is a way to for me to get into that too bad the closest store is a 22 mile roundtrip(not worth it for one game *sigh*)

Wii / 3DS Angry Birds Star Wars - $1.00 New ToysRUs
http://www.ebay.com/itm/361379001311?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT

I picked up Wii Angry Birds Star Wars which "arrived" early. I also placed an order for 2 copies of 3DS Angry Birds Star Wars just this morning, also only a dollar each! When I got to the store I asked if the 3DS versions were on the way, turns out the store had them in the back storeroom. This confirms the TRU titles are only available if in stock at the local store when placing the order. Strange that there are none at all on the store shelves. Maybe all copies are held in the back room from last Cyber Monday?

The regular ToysRUs site shows the games retail at $19.99 each
Both Wii and 3DS versions are brand new sealed and not refurbished at a buck only at the TRU Ebay links! This beats the Frys sealed used $7.99 Angry Bird Star Wars I bought a couple of days ago. The Frys store has a whole stack in a clearance basket; I thought they were just price label restickered new copies to used. The refurbish games have a center ring tape reinforcement stuck right on the game disc. I do no like this due to balance and slight chance of catching in a slot loading console. Refunded the Frys copy after picking up the TRU brand new copies.

Thinking about cheap Christmas gifts, I tried to order another ten each. Unfortunately though the selected stores show availability, the orders cannot be fully processed. I'll try again in a day or two after my old orders clear. Perhaps the TRU Ebay site limits one group order of each type per customer or it might get deleted due to the oops price? Glad I placed both copies of the 3DS in the same order.

Oh and I busted open the Wii version, confirmed Angry Birds Star Wars does in fact only come with a Safety Precautions brochure similiar to Gamecube game safety flyers. Unlike Wii Angry Birds Trilogy which comes with a skimpy manual, not even a single page of that silly safety brochure is dedicated to any sort of game related instructions. At least I have the PAL PDF color manual in case I want to print it out to make the game more of a CIB.
