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!

Was there many there at that stage? I was in at 5 and they had none.

The guy didn't say, he just went into the back and grabbed one for me, so no idea if there were any left or if I got the last one going!

How much is Mario Golf by the way, and is it any good?

Online is very good, won my first tournament last week, good value for €20.

I found it a tough game to keep up with on a casual basis as a total hoarder. The amount of online competitions with collectable prizes was overwhelming. Good fun though.

Got Splinter Cell Wii U for €1 in Smyths sale yesterday.

Allyall

Shop assistant in swords never heard of Wii party U, said he stocks all of the games.
Got the 2nd last Wii U fit, and a lady picked up the last one.
There was nothing else of any value there today. But I'm going to check again tomorrow.

I got an email there from my friends in Amazon. Fr
Monster hunter 4 price drop to 33.90!

CiDeRmAn

Also now getting adverts for Amazon.fr on my phone as I browse Boards!
While reading about the latest Ninty news I also know there's some damn fine bargains to be had there in Majorette toy cars!
Win!

@Corholio - was splinter cell on the shelf and stickered @€;1?

Amazon have Resi REvelations WiiU for £11.99 - it's been that low before but not for a while on there. Also, if you were lucky enough to get the Walking Dead Compendium #1 for £10.94 the other week, it's jumped up to £40 so it's a good time to swing by the page and feel smugly self-satisfied

What's the difference between MH4U 2DS for €34 and the MH4U 3DS for €65 on amazon.fr?

Star Lord

None, other than one is obviously trying to rip someone off.

Yes it was. I'ts actually missing the front cover and the manual is inside the plastic instead. It has a pre-owned sticker but the disc is definitely brand new.

Nice, but just make sure there's not an Argos book stuffed inside instead of a game.

splinter cell was an alirght game, co-op is worthless though.

Omg that's amazing! But I thought hmv didn't sell the WiiU anymore? which hmv?

pasta-solo

Hmv in Galway, they have a very small poster in the window and none on display, they're behind the counter.

I was only in their recently and they had them out in the shelf. Nothing at a good price either.

Jesus! I'd have bought a second one on principle for that price.

I was in HMV Dundrum today, it was crap. Tiny selection of WiiU games, none of which were among the best games on the system. Didn't have Majora's Mask either, which just made me cross.

Not the bargain of the century, but possibly the best price around at the minute - (And may take 1 - 2 months to dispatch)
Official Wii U 2550mAh Gamepad Battery Pack - €16.83 (€24.51 Delivered) from Amazon France

RobbingBandit

No deal on Wii U in Dublin stores I've been calling still full price

Grabbed one myself yesterday, alas there's a 1-2 month lead time on them currently but still worth ordering now for when they come back in stock.

AmazonWatch reporting in
Etrian Odyssey IV - Legends of the Titan for £29.99 (down from £34.35)
Watchdogs down to £16.99 from £18.85
Also bayonetta 2 has dropped about 50p but that puts it just under £30, on £29.99, and psychologically that might be enough to tip you over the edge.

Banjo

That wasn't there this morning...

Etrian Odyssey is still expensive, isn't it, I paid €44.99 for moved in GS last month.
I think Argos has the best price on Bayonetta 1/2 right now, don't they?

Just a note on Etrian Odyssey. If anyone is on the fence about it, you can download the demo from the eshop. If you like it and buy the full game, your save file will transfer over from the demo so you won't lose any progress.
