So to confirm, there is no 3 for 2 offer?

So,
I went in to buy it at 3 for 2.
I was told it was either the 3 for 2 or get them at 50% aka €3.50 each.
And at that, the till wouldn't ring up the offer so they had to take for the three weapon packs separately, at €3.50 each.

One of the characters has a passive skill that reduces the amount of random envounters. I didn't think it would be my kind of game but it is so good.

Octopath discount showing up now. Coming in at 27 bob on SA Store. Sorely tempted, just need to get over the random encounter thing. Must stop buying games ....But it is Christmas:)

When you reckon would be a good time to take the plunge?
Wanted to get one for myself for Christmas but wondering should I wait till after? How much better were the deals before in comparison?

Having the same problem. I was keeping tabs in the run up to Black Friday and while I saw a decent drop on amazon I didn’t see anything locally to blow me away.

Unsure wether to buy now or wait. I guess problem being Ive my Christmas holidays now where I can actually play the thing 😀

Just bought Octopath and Mario Rabids from the SA store for under 40e for both. Might have used some points though.

Anyone who bought Starlink make sure the game is in it!!

We just opened ours and it's missing the game, according to Google it's common.

Looks like starlink has gone back up to 24.99 again, on the website at least

Mr E

It was one of their 12 days of Christmas offers. One day only...

Finally purchased Resident Evil Revelations and Splintercell Blacklist off the Eshop for Wii U (remember that?!), €5.49 & €7.49 respectively. Good prices I think, and looking forward to playing them.

Blacklist is great. Has a 24 vibe about it (the TV show). A reminder of how well the gamepad can work too.

Bunch more games added to the eShop sale...including 50% off Starlink! Base digital version is now €40 (5 ships, 7 pilots, 12 weapons) and the Deluxe version (with all the ships/weapons) is only €50, a damn sight cheaper than trying to buy everything separate.

Also now included is Octopath Traveller, Okami HD, Mario + Rabbids, Puyo Puyo & Tetris, Crash N Sane Trilogy.

A word of warning €6.99 for Puzzle Bobble will likely result in missed meals, time away from family and the workplace and a almost certain decline in the quality of your personal hygiene.
A ridiculously addictive game.

You should keep an eye on the Russian eShop in future. You could have bought both for roughly €6.66(239 Rubles and 281 Rubles).

Do not start to play unless you can finish the job

Try Amazon.COM Prime (don't forget to cancel) and then you can order The End is Nigh - delivered to Ireland for $24.60/€21.62

I tried to get it on Pricespy and a few other sites but can't seem to get a proper price comparison. , so that makes this seem decent to me.
The results that do appear but don't lead anywhere on Pricespy are €28.80 anyway, so it still seems good.

Pretty sure it does, I had a second UK account for the Injustice dlc that I chickened out of buying. It's a pain having to select a profile every time you start up though.

Nintendo Switch Super Smash Bros Ultimate Bundle going for €350 at smyths, €20 cheaper than usual, great starter kit and decent price.

EDIT: Just copped its a download code version of the game, but its not really the kind of game you would want to trade in anyway..

If anybody is looking for a truly fantastic 2d platformer for their new (or old Switch) then Rayman Legends is on sale.

Few more deals popping up on Eshop. Dead Cells is discounted and can be had for around €15 in South Africa store (€19.99 on Ireland store). Broken Age has 70% off too.

I definitely don't need another game but tempted by Dead Cells

Have it on Xbox. Played a bit at the start but haven't played in a while. Ideal game for the Switch though. It's fairly addictive once you get a few good runs together and there's always the temptation to get that one last run in.

Sonic Mania down to €14.99 too.
