Thinking of getting Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3, should I wait for price-drop or will price-drop

not happen anytime soon even tho game came out feb 19th or 20th. I know its Capcom, so the price of the game may stay at 40 bucks for awhile? Or do you think I should wait? This is the thing, it bothers me if I buy a game for 40 bucks but 2-4 weeks later you can get it for like 30-25 bucks.

What I also don't get is do publishers/developers decide to make a game the price tag of 40 bucks or is that a store? What I'm saying is I don't see why Walmart, Target, and Gamestop all sell it for the same price. You would think that one of those stores would want my business more even if it meant lowering the price to about 5 bucks less(I know gamestop does this for used games but I don't like buying used games for 5 bucks less because that doesn't seem worth it to me personally).

You should always wait (if you can) to buy new games. They always come out at the MSRP to maximize profit (and when demand is the greatest), usually within a few months after a game comes out there are usually sales or price drops. It just depends on how the game has sold.

OMG, I constantly looked up sales for it and didn't see it on sale for 29.99 at target. I'm pissed, now the deals dead?

I'm waiting now since you guys said that it should be getting lower sometime soon.

Yeah, I bought my copy from PSN the week before that sale .  It's worth waiting for sales; it can be a little slower with a brand new system, but new games tend to have sales even within a month of their release.  I did not wait on this since I just got my Vita that day; it was a bit of an impulse buy which I occassionally allow myself, for games (in this case, really for the system) I'm excited for.
