    Mario tennis 3d marked 5 euro on the shelf, 1c at the till. Truly those were the golden days.

    I don't think we'll see it again - the tend not to overprovision like they used to, except maybe on Lego and monster high dolls. Sure they're still trying to move umpteen copies if Stop Smoking DS, that Guitar playing app and all sorts of Imagine games 2 years later.

    We will see it again! Now shush.

    Couple of gamestop stores have lego city undercover limited edition wii u for 19.99e

    https://www.gamestop.ie/StoreLocator/Index?productId=44188

    Rang 5 of them this morning they all said none in stock. Tried to politely mention it says some in stock online.

    Nope.

    "None in stock in fifty-something shops in Ireland. I especially ordered on in for a customer 3 days ago, but that's the only one in Ireland." - Newbridge Gamestop 18.03.2016.

    If it makes you feel any better, the Chase McCain figure is unarmed and a scale-foot shorter than them, so he has a fierce time trying to get Emma, Andrea or any of the other Lego Friends to respect his authority. For him to be worth while you really need the 3DS Lego Batman 2 Lex Luthor - no one ignores a cop with a Kryptonite-powered positron collider.

    Sorry. Excuse my brain fart. I quite literally don't know what I was thinking.

    Edit: Now I remember, for some reason I had Pokken Tournament on the brain.

    Warriors Orochi 3 is £4 on Amazon and Call of Duty: Black Ops II is £4.40

    I didn't check shipping on either. I think BlopsII qualifies for free, not sure about Warriors Orochi.

    For Warriors Orochi 3, it says postage is £10.50 for delivery to UK only(so another €4 for Parcel Motel) and it's dispatched from Italy so I wouldn't be sure if this is the UK version of the game,

    Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival - including the two Amiibo & 3 Amiibo Cards is €14.97 on Amazon.de including postage it's just over €21. Which is a great price. Today only - ends at 11pm tonight.

    I heard the game isn't great but considering what you get for that price. I'm sure it has a higher trade in value.

    Is this a one size fits all bundle? I mean is this in German or is it like Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water where it was one Europe wide bundle?

    Edit: I think it's a Europe wide bundle.

    I think it's in English. The packaging looks so. Even with two amiibo and 3 cards for 20 it's not bad. Throw in the game and nice box ;) and we have a bargain! I ordered one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,020 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Yep it's a one size fits all bundle.

    Ordered that Animal crossing game for daughters birthday, thanks alekito.

    I know its supposedly a dreadful game but she'll use the amiibo and cards for the also pretty dreadful home designer game she has.

    Heh :) hope she likes it! I think I have to agree with you, even thought I bought it myself. Can't resist a bargain like that.

    There is always CEX ... but I'll keep the box! Love those big amiibo & game boxes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    Nice one, just ordered that animal crossing bundle. Can't really go wrong for €21!

    Ah, I missed out on Chibi Robo. Just online now but they work on German time. Would have been good for €14

    Damn, just bought Silhouette Mirage for the Saturn, can't spend any more! It's a great deal though, pity the game sucks though.

    Also, for anyone that missed it, Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival is on Amazon Italy for €24.98, so you could buy both and save on shipping.

    Not sure if it's a bargain really but Senran Kagura: Burst is €9.99 for 3DS in gamestop.

    It's sold out online but there's limited stock around the country.

    That's a great deal, the game was going for in the region of €35 in most places I'd seen it in up to now.
    Not a bad game, for a scrolling beat'em up, a bit repetitive but then it is a scrolling beat'em up, so repetitiveness is par for the course.

    Anyone seen the sequel cheap online anywhere? Cheapest I've seen it is £22 on amazon, not terrible but would rather spend €10 ;)
