Nintendo games/consoles bargain alert thread

Star Lord

Not a deal on a game/console as such, but for anyone looking for a micro SD card for the New 3DS, this could be a good one:

http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Micro-SDHC/Integral/Integral-32GB-UltimaPro-Micro-SDHC-Card-40MB_s-Including-Adapter---Class-10-

I've ordered from these guys myself in the past a bunch of times, currently using one of these in my 3DS, so swapping over to the New 3DS should be easy!

Copying from a standard SD to this is as simple as copying the files from one to the other on a PC / laptop.

HUKD steal
WiiU Infinity 1.0 set - £9.99 + Delivery, £11.99 total
I know, you're thinking that they should add 14.99 charge for hardware, but that's not what it does at checkout. Huzzah!

Cars, Toy Story and some other infinity stuff all reduced to very low prices in Tesco at the moment.
Skylander stuff too, if thats your bag.

Apparently Lone Ranger is the best set for gameplay. Cars gives you lots of cool pieces for building tracks in Toy Box. And then buy Wreckit Ralph and Vanellope to race on those tracks - sorted. Until Ralph gets made into Mariokart DLC

The Lone Ranger set is pretty good alright.
Although it is based on a film only about three of us have seen!
I loved it by the way!

€40 for the two of them is excellent.

CEX buy Wii Party U for €12 (no mention in the description of it coming with accessories) - so that's €8 for a wii mote and a horizontal Gamepad stand?

Wrong. They have it listed several times on the site. It's also bought at €6 WITH the WiiMote. Also, they'll only buy an official wiimote for €6, or an M+ wiimote for €1.70!
Now, I have never actually sold through CEX, so I'll defer to the more experienced members of Boards here, but I would not go marching down to Smyths with a handful of €20 notes and dreams of avarice.

great deal if you actually want the games though. Remember, in independent tests* the Pokémeter (which the WiiFit meter shares it's pedometer tech heritage with) was the most accurate commercial pedometer IN THE WORLD!
*(ok, one test. And I can't find the link)

Edit : Didn't see either in Carrickmines, but was too time-pressed to ask at the desk. They did have Mario Golf for €20 on the shelves and a couple of DS games (Sonic racing and Cut the Rope) for a tenner each, which doesn't feel like much of a bargain. Some tiny skylander figures with the cardboard backing missing for €1 (whatever his name was, the "enchanted" version was €5. And if you pick him up he falls out the back of the plastic and splits in half). Oh, and not a bargain but someone was looking for Luigi Amiibos in Dublin, well they had a few on the shelf. Smash, not Party. And it's practically in wicklow. But otherwise, job done!

Also, Red Wii for €50. 3 or 4 on the software desk. Because who doesn't want a crippled version of an obsolete console?

CiDeRmAn

Its a terrible version of the Wii as well, poor build quality, only for the completist out there who must have ALL Ninty hardware.
When standard Wii consoles are so so cheap and you can do so much with them too.

What's wrong with the red Wii?

Also, spotted a black Wii for €45 in CEX today, was thinking about buying it. I fiddled around with my original Wii a few years ago to back up the games and I've recently found out that is the reason my Gamecube games no longer run on it. However I would still like to play Gamecube games in 480p so is it sound enough for that?

CiDeRmAn

I'm talking about the Wii Mini, sorry, I assumed that's what he meant .

If your Gamecube games are PAL versions, they won't work in 480p no matter the version. It's only possible to play these games in 480p using mods.

Is the red Wii not the mini? My mistake if its not... As a man approaching 40 Red Wii is never a good sign. Am I right?

Bayonetta Double Pack is €46.99 in Argos, and you can add either Metroid: Other M, Fifa 13, or Mystery Case Files for 99c.

I don't know about you but what im reading between these lines is that you are the centre of the universe and Mr E and my purposes within that universe are to exist close to Smythses that you have access to. I find this both disturbing and liberating.....

CiDeRmAn

I want Wii fit but don't need it.
I want it because its a WiiU game I don't have, I don't need it as I already have a balance board and I can see my penis without the aid of a mirror.

Star Lord

You really should put some pants on...

I checked as many stores as I could, first went to Bray (they had nothing), then went to Carrickmines (they had Mario Golf) also went to tallaght and they had only had mario golf which I already had. Blanch was too far so asked my bro in limerick and he said he got both (wii u fit and party) for me (he better not be pulling my leg)

kingtut

Is the sale still on today or was it yesterday only?

Banjo

apparently it's running for 3 weeks or so with possible stock changes/renewals/etc

ionapaul

Thanks for the heads-up on those deals - grabbed a Wii Fit U for €20 in Smyths in Bray yesterday afternoon. Wife should be impressed!

bkrangle

No Wii fit U or Wii U party in Jervis St. Smyth's

Plenty of Mario Golf though

kwazar

If anybody spots Wii Party U, could you get it for me please?
