Thanks Capcom! A Street Fighter X Tekken Weekend Deal blunder.

If anyone was online at the time of the new Weekend Deals on Steam today, they probably know what happened. If not, here's what I saw (for the lulz):

Capcom's morning:
Before 10:00 AM PST: Alright! We'll give Street Fighter X Tekken a price cut so people will buy it and give us more money!
10:00 AM PST: Hm... no buyers... IDEA! Let's make the game and DLCs 66% off for the weekend!
10:10 AM PST: AH GOD DANG IT THE BASE GAME IS 88% OFF!!! CHANGE THE PRICE NAO NAO NAO!!!
10:20 AM PST: Screw it. Abort the promotion. Let's leave the home page (But leave the game and DLC on sale lol.)
10:30 AM PST: ...you know what? Make base game full price and remove the price cut. Leave DLC on sale for now.
UPDATE 10:50 AM PST: Alright. Let's get rid of the costume DLC sales. I bet no one was going to buy them anyways.
UPDATE SOMETIME AFTER 11 AM PST ALRIGHT THIS SALE NEVER HAPPENED GO BACK TO IDLING FOR CARDS NOW.
(I didn't take a pic of the base game on sale, but select DLC was still on sale as of this post. :3)

I find these sale mistakes funny/exploitable. What was your favorite?

I got it for $3.59! I also got the Sonic collection for $7.50 during that price error:)

I knew I should've gotten Street Fighter X Tekken during the bug. It's just that no one would probably want it anyways. :3

Also saw the price error of the Sonic collection too. It wouldn't be beneficial to me since I already own most of the Sonic games. :3

Wah?

Must have just missed it, saw it at 66% and noticed in UK that the base game and complete pack are the same price, but never saw it cheaper :(

I might actually buy this if they ever go down to -95%.

You should thank Steam. Capcom had nothing to do with this error.

I'm pretty sure, the base game was on a 75% before, at some point.

Yes, but that was back when the base price was higher.
