    Can I get a reccommendation on where to go?

    I'm hoping to trade in my 3DS along with Ocarina of Time and Rayman 3D and put what I get towards the wifi model, Rayman Origins and a 16GB card.

    Any ideas how much I'll get off with the 3DS and where best to go for trade ins/bundles?

    Dying for it!

    I put a picture of that up :mad: but everyone said I was wrong.

    Wasn't trying to suggest that anyone was lying or making it up, but passing on the info that it wasn't a nationwide Argos offer based on the fact that both the website and Cork City branch don't have it.

    From what you are both saying it's clear that the offer seems to apply to Jervis St, but anyone looking for the deal elsewhere should be aware it may not be at their local branch.

    No matter. I'm finishing work early now and will have my toy to play with in just over a half an hour. :D

    Good luck with tonight's gaming, people!

    Wow. You know, if they do send me the code, I will be giving it away, but not to you. You're acting extremely immaturely and are quite frankly irritating. As I said in a message 10 mins ago to you, and on your whiny thread on FB, they could give you the code, but this petulance is just pathetic.

    There was 25% on trades in if you preordered the Vita. Traded in my 360 with a few games and got about 320 plus 25% extra along with some vouchers I got for Christmas!

    The only thing that is annoying - game bay ( if you can cal it that way ) takes awile to squizze my nail inside there. Just the whole thing is a bit ... Annoying...
    I think I will try to get digital copies of games if I can.

    From what I sow in rayman and wipeout demo I can say that this is really powerfull machine. If they will do console copies of games with just little downgrade in graphics then I will completely stop buying games for ps3/Xbox and get vita instead.

    Just rang Gamestop there. If I trade in my 3DS and one game I get the Vita for 100. Thing is I need to buy a memory card and game too. Which brings it up to 180 or so.

    Anyone know if I can trade in a DS Lite in addition to the 3DS? I've a tonne of games for it too.

    Got caught up now.

    chrislad did not fake a picture after grabbing it off an image search, and while there may be something cosmically unfair about a millionaire winning the lottery (wining the game and having it already). He did not cheat or mislead, he got a legitimate win.

    I have both of these pre-downloaded on my PS3 at home. I will test them as soon as I get home.

    Both work perfectly. No issues at all, they even seem to load a lot faster.

    Now to download more goodness!

    Couple of mentions on the thread - Sony are aware of the issue and will be emailing codes out.

    Discount codes weren't working, which is a shame as I wanted to play Escape Plan, which is what I opted for. New ones were due to be sent out today.

    Frobisher Says is decent enough though. It's definitely not a 'free' game though - it's very limited without buying the add on but if you liked Wario Ware, it's definitely worth a look.

    Unexpected - the 3G model can receive SMS messages, they show up under operator messages. You can also send messages via vodafone's site, obviously. Just a curious side thing :)

    My mate works in Sainsburys and can get 10% discount for me.

    he says they are offering £199 for vita wifi plus fifa. Bang in 8gb memory card for around £30 and it totals at around 230.

    take off 10% and all i pay is 207. good deal for vita fifa and 8gb memory? i can pick it up tomorrow

    damm. just found out from my mate that its £240 for the vita wifi and fifa. Fifa is not free :(

    So all in all with vita(199) + fifa(39.99) + 8gb(£28) = 266.99

    10% discount of that lot is around 240

    still a good deal?
