If they ever want to shift the Callie and Marie amiibos they should drop them to €5.99 or less. Tomorrow....

You'd wanna stop stealth watching me or you'll replace a certain mod at the top of my heartthrob list, he had all the hearts you only had half but I'm willing to share.

Can still order Flatout fairly cheaply online.

Can't believe GameStop are still looking for €50 for this, can get 3 copies of it for that price elsewhere.

For anyone still wondering, that offer in gamestop is still going on with the game trade on the list of games.

Just got Bayonetta 2 on the switch for 18.99 (traded game) + 14.99 extra.

€33.98 is pretty good value for a new game.

I've come up with a way to get the game for 32.50euro or 27.50euro if you are a level 3 GameStop member

Argos have COD WW2 or 50 and the opportunity to get MW Remastered for 12.50 with it..

So trade WW2 into GameStop get 50 cash or 55 cash if you are level 3 .. 52.50euro if level one.. Then trade in MW remastered for Bayonetta for 20..

Not sure how long the trade credit equals cash offer lasts however but GameStop are starting to actually be pretty decent lately that is.

The offer of trade credit matches cash?

Might have already been posted but Argos are now giving FIFA18 for free when you buy a Switch

Maybe this site was mentioned before?

https://eshop-prices.com/games?currency=EUR

came across this while looking for the cheapest place to buy payday 2, just type the game you want to look for and it pulls up where its the cheapest on eshop. seems norway and south africa are the only ones we can get near the top 4 /5

Banjo

You can buy credit for the us store online . Caveat is that you'll lose excess credit it you don't clear down your balance before switching back. Mexico is the problem.

Btw payday is€44 in Argos, which is only €3.50 more than the US/Mex price, but with resale value and far less messing with accounts and funding.

Yes I got Sonic from the Russian shop a few weeks ago half price compared to the Irish shop. I don't even understand how this system makes sense but will use it while it lasts!

Bayonetta 2 is down to €30 on the Irish Eshop so probably reduced elsewhere although even south Africa shows it as €40

I'll trade in my hard copy now as its probably worth 30 at least in GS as CeX are giving 29 cash or 34 credit.

Banjo

If you registered Bayonetta 1 you get a discount on B2. Since you're talking about trading in B2, I'm guessing you did. Still a handy -if circuitous- way of saving a fiver or so over Retail. Depending on when and where you bought it, and what you get on trade-in

I'm surprised more physical copy owners aren't selling on Bayonetta download codes.

I just prefer digital games for the Switch so it's handy to trade the hard copy for the digital. I'm almost sure that the GS level three boost will give me 50 credit on the trade.
Worse case is cex gives 29 so I'm even

Santy brought me that bundle for Christmas. Weird thing is the console knows that the Joycons are red. They appear red on screen in any notification/tutorial involving the Joycons.

yup, there's stuff in the firmware that identifies the colour for the joycons - you can change it with a tool I've seen online.

That's the same across the range afaik, mine has the neon controllers and it knows which one is which and displays same.

Doesn't seem to post to Ireland? Would normally turn to parcel motel I guess but it seems it's only pickup in store at an Argos. Not sure if they'd let you select a Dublin store.

That's only the case because you've activated the Bayonetta 1 code. It shows as Purchased, and because of that, there's a discount on Bayonetta 2. For people who haven't activated the code or bought Bayonetta 1 separately, it's 49.99 I believe.

They don't. Went to see if I could do a Click & Collect for Newry, as it's handy to get to for me, but there doesn't seem to be any in stock anywhere in the North at all. Ah well.

Gamestop has reduced the switch to 300 euro! Can't actually buy it right now, since none of the stores are gonna be open again till the weekend, but you can get it online.

So tempted to just trade in my switch and get 300 cash if that offer still on then buy new one ..I assume the offer is finished though wouldn't make sense to have it on people just trade in there switches for new one

The 300 trade in poster was gone from my GameStop Monday. I was going to take advantage of it but I snoozed.
I saw a ps4 on the poster too but didn't get to go into them.
Too much procrastination on my part...

Finished main part of Mario Odyssey (loads of the game still left anyway i know) and have FIFA and Mario Kart for times when I don't have too much playtime.


Was thinking Zelda digital will be my next purchase. Does the price come down ever? It pricey.

Love the switch btw. First Nintendo since the NES.
