    Wait a minute, isn't Pikmin 3 included in that list?

    I had Pikmin 3 in the list but then I fired it too close to some water and it drowned.

    Holy crap!

    Wind Waker here I come

    Although, I already own 6 games on that list... I may have a problem...

    Ya only 5 are worth owning and it's a choice between Pikmin 3 or W101 for me. Pikmin 3 will hold its value better. I'll get W101 when it's hit rock bottom.

    Black Ops 2 is 12 euro on Game.co.uk preowned. Pristine condition when it arrived for me. Probably the best iteration of the Blops 2 imo

    Anyone know do tesco take money from your account straight away or when it's dispatched? I'd order now if I knew it's not taken immediatly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,012 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Is there not a way of buying this from Tesco Ireland either online or in store? It's too bad that you have buy from the UK and worry about postage charges. I presume there'd be no import duties. I thought Tesco were meant to have a deal with Nintendo but I've not seen anything Wii U in store bar a few stores when it launched. It doesn't affect me as I have my Wii U but what about other shoppers in Tesco stores? I didn't see a single change since the Tesco deal with Nintendo.

    Artane Tesco is the only Tesco I've seen any Wii U items in, in Dublin. They only have a few games, no console I saw.



    Rayman Legends is €11.63 on Base.com

    I think the Tesco site won't allow numbers when setting up your profile but you can add in your PM number at the payment stage when you select delivery/in store pick up as it allows you to modify the address and name fields.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    I last ordered from tesco at Christmas, I can't really remember, but I think I entered my details like:
    In my name like this:

    My NamePM1234

    or

    In the Address like this:

    1A McKinney Rd PM1234
    Newtownabbey
    Antrim
    BT36 4PE

    Did I hear something about if you buy mario kart you get another game free or was j dreaming that?

    If I was an actual thing I assume its digital download which I don't really want to do in fairness. MK will be a keeper. One for a boxed copy.

    Don't even have a wii U yet and have jumped on this great offer. I'll have a game or two when I get it. Shipping was €1.67 to France what a deal!

    Does anyone know where I can pick up a cheap wii U scart adapter (have an old TV none of this fancy HD business!) I know the wii I comes with all the cables for HD but I'm just using a regular RGB TV if that makes sense?

    Thanks in advance!

    I'd say you'll end up playing the bulk of your Wii U games on the gamepad if your telly isnt HD as it'll probably look a lot better on the gamepad.

    Rayman Legends is excellent btw. I played it loads, need to finish it though. Stopped short due to other games getting in the way. Might give it a bash this weekend actually. A nice change of pace from Little Kings Story which I'm currently rocking through on the PS Vita.

    The two mario games are superb as well if your looking for platforming goodness. The 2D one doesnt get the praise it deserves.

    Yeah I'm going to get the premium pack with Mario Bros U and Luigi U

    Then I'm gonna pick up Mario Kart 8 and Mario Land and that'll be me set for the next while at least!

    Are you in France?

    If so, FNAC have a good offer on.

    2 Wheels, a Keyring and MarioKart for €49.99 - Or the Collectors edition for €67.98.
    (Automatic reduction takes effect when you add them to the shopping cart)

    Anyone thinking of doing it here, add €10 (i think) for shipping.
