Don't think so, due to region locking.

Saw Conker's Bad Fur Day in cex for £95

CiDeRmAn · 29-01-2017 8:08am

Sure, a Wii from CEX is €30 now.
Just get one, soft mod it and, Bam, region free gaming.
It'll also play import GC games too!

For the n64? Didn't know that cex carried n64 games?

It was ported to the Xbox, after Rare were bought up by Microsoft.

CastorTroy · 29-01-2017 2:03pm

Was N64 unboxed. They also had NES and SNES games. This was in Derry

CiDeRmAn · 29-01-2017 2:21pm

Ah, slash city, no, we don't see retro games down here in CEX unfortunately.
And £95 is probably about right for that game, it is pretty expensive for the N64.
I sold my pal copy for similarly stupid money a couple of years ago.

Yep and all stock allocated to North America has already been shipped to retailers with no more in production.

No news about EU or AUS but I reckon the same.

There it goes. One of Ninty's own prototypes. A not quite high-powered enough mutant of some kind never even considered for mass consumption. Too weird to live, and too rare to die as it will live on as remakes/ports on the switch.

Do not go gently into the night and it won't with breath of the wild.

Now we sit back and watch the second-hand prices steadily climb with smug looks on our faces.

We Wii U owners...

*Looks dramatically into the sunset*

... We few.

If only they weren't rereleasing the whole catalogue on Switch we might have made a tasty price

Collectors would still go after the Wii U versions I'd say. The likes of that Super Luigi U in the green box will be one to look out for.

I've reported people for this but I think it's time...

Maybe the WiiU is dead....

Has that been confirmed?

Started playing devils third this evening. Cannot understand why it got such bad reviews. Sure it doesn't exactly strain the brain cells but I like the mindless fun run n gun style of it, reminds me of some old PS2 games for some reason. For a tenner it's well worth it. Nice to have a bit of gore from Nintendo now and again too.

spookmaster · 01-02-2017 2:14am

Anyone who has Super Mario Maker, I got bored and made a level based on the current storyline in Fair City. Kill me. Please.

Shame they sacked the online so quickly, supposedly quite good fun.

Any game in particular? Don't remember having an issue with sound, certainly not that I can recall.

Young lad was watching Netflix absolutely God awful noises and Mario 3d world aswell

Graham_B18C · 06-02-2017 2:13am

Herself bought me a Wii U for my birthday this week. Set it up this morning and I'd say I've been playing different Marios for about 10 hours now &#55357;&#56862;

I got Mario maker and new mario bros with it. I bought super mario world today and have smash bros and mario kart 8 on the way. Should keep me going for a while!

Can anyone recommend a decent cheap controller? Looking at this. Cheap and cheerful, anyone have one? I'll prob use that more when playing on the tv rather than the big gamepad

Tom Mann Centuria · 06-02-2017 8:54am

Anyone with a spare few thousand (five, Sterling to be more accurate) might be interested in this.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282346334466

No idea if they'll get that much money, or what it's really worth but it looks fantastic.

Just a shame those games aren't getting played, but I know there's value in sealed stuff. Lottery winning me would buy that collection and start playing with the games!
