    I got the Luigi faceplate but it's not floating my boat.
    I should've gotten the wooden faceplate for the extra tenner, but they hadn't one in stock :(
    Bugger.....

    Had a quick gawk in the local Gamestop this morning on my travels, Wii-U section shrinking all the time. Mostly eye-watering prices but I spotted the below, no idea if it's any good but thought it might be worth a chance at a tenner.

    Sickening that the Wii section seems to be many times bigger than the Wii U section.
    Sell the white boxes off cheap and put more blue boxes in there. :)

    Lego Marvel is great, especially for multiplayer. Just remember, it's a pain in the arse to switch out from being the Hulk or Spiderman, because the button press you usually use to bring up the character select matrix is the same one to transform into Bruce Banner or Peter Parker. So let your kids / significant other / mates be Hulk and then laugh as you effortlessly switch from Dr. Doom to Johnny Storm.

    Just had a horrible image flash into my mind as I typed Johnny Storm. Be glad vyou're not me...

    Alright so, that hulk x button thing is doing my head in; how do I change to someone else??!! Change the button config?

    Just bought Wario Land; The Shake Dimension, Zelda; Spirit Tracks and Mass Effect 3 for Wii U. Should be fun times, I have a real soft spot for the Wario Land games.

    Yup. These are for the regular New 3DS that I'll inevitably pick up at some stage :o

    That was my question when he ordered them! :D

    For the collection rather than for use I believe!


    Never mind, the man himself beat me to it! :D

    [edit]

    My only gripe with them is why didn't they use black screws, like they did in the plain black cover that came with the console!

    If I'm honest, they'll in all likelyhood never see any use at all. Being Zelda related, they were insta-get's for me, otherwise, I could take or leave them. I will pick up a regular new 3ds at some point though, so maybe :)

    My majora's mask one is in use already, from as soon as I could swap the covers around! Just couldn't resist then!

    I have the promo CD that came with DKC, I wonder if that's on it?

    Edit: nope :(

    There for appear to be some official ost available in Japan though for the SNES game, released on CD, but the prices on ebay are nuts.

    This is going in Argos for €38.99 at the mo'

    Postman is still busy

    Games don't need much explaining. The grip I got because from experience I find one is essential for the vita, I'm not so sure about the 3DS, it seems to add weight but not a huge amount of extra comfort. Plus the model I got blocks the cart port.


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,517 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Got these today in HMV in the Crescent in Limerick... See bargain thread for details. Nice haul. :)

    I got Fifa and Mass Affect thrown in with my Wii back in December. FIFA is still sealed and will quite likely stay that way for a long time.

    Played about an hour of Mass Affect and enjoyed it, need to set aside a long window to play that again.

    And I still have Zombie U since around the same time unplayed.
