New Ninty Gets!

Little brother got his switch and he ****ing loves it!
Downside, I'm now 3rd best sibling at Mario Kart out of the four of us.
Have to say it's some bit of kit.
It's getting more docked play in our house than handheld, which in suorised by.
Those little joycons are hard to use for any length of time longer than 5 mins.

Don't forget to put the slides on. We played all Christmas day without them and I found them in the box when I got home

And make sure you match them up correctly when putting them on, + to + and - to -. Thankfully I remembered reading about that issue long before I got my Switch.

What are they? I don't think they were on them to be honest.

So these chaps finally turned up today, ordered them my mymemory back on 18/12. Fairly decent build quality for the price actually. Tested them out with Mario Kart and they work fine.

MilesMorales1

Pleased with that.

Nope. Not jealous at all. Not a bit.

I was looking back at my amazon order for when I got that game. March 2012 for £17.39.

Surprised a remaster hasn't been announced yet

Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy

I think I paid around 20 for it.
Bought Okami HD for about 13 before New Years

RobbingBandit

Bought Ocarina 3d in Argos for €16.99 still my favourite zelda game (tingle rosey rupee land aside)

Nice get, that's a great price for still one of the best games of all time and one of the top two LoZ games of all time.
It's also a masterclass in how to remaster.

RobbingBandit

Very little stock of it about now and considering the price in CeX is €40 I'm chuffed specially as I've still got a gold box from the original launch so the cart will soon be resting in that.

wheresmahbombs

I stumbled upon Sonic Rush Adventure and took the chance to buy it for €15 in CeX.

RobbingBandit

Found a great deal in Golden Discs in Henry Street last weekend loads of games 5 for €10, best of the bunch was Majoras Mask, Tintin, Lego Indy, GTA Chinatown Wars and Sonic Racing ds version, I bought everything in sight saved me a bunch on Majora been trying to get in for months there are a few wii and ds games left but nothing worthwhile which is why I didn't post it in bargains thread.

After 2 years of looking I got myself Pokemon soul sliver fully boxed and a real cart and copy for 30 euros on donedeal.

Who would have tought would have been that hard to get one?. As I nearly bought one last year just the cart and was fake !!!.

Delighted is a understatement as been trying to 're buy all my Pokemon games for the past 2 years as my neaphow got sticky fingers and they went walking !!!

So, finally, The End Is Nigh arrived, and very nice it is too!

Comes with yet another witty manual as well as a little squishy Ash character.

The manual is clever because it not only includes instructions but also a perspective on the making of the game, with photos and production sketches, which is pretty cool.

So, another Nicalis physical release in the collection!

wheresmahbombs

Finally got it.

The End is Nigh is H.A.R.D. !!
And expensive!
I paid about €30 for the physical edition but it's €14.99 on the eShop.

RobbingBandit

Bought Pokemon Crystal in Argos gods damn the AI was brutally difficult even at the start of the game poison this, paralysing that, they don't make em like this any more that's for sure.

CiDeRmAn

I also collected my €24.99 PuyoPuyo Tetris for my Switch, and it seems to be great fun, is love to see Mr Driller: Drill Land come to the Switch, I have it on the GameCube and it's probably the definitive version of the game.

Gunmonkey

Amazon package arrived today...hooray, my brush soap!!

...oh yeah and Fire Emblem Warriors.

RobbingBandit

Picked up Fire Emblem Echoes for not so good €35 in CeX need it as a gift over weekend coming, might give it a go myself first though.

Just got Arms on eBay for €16 including postage. For that price it's worth a punt.

For that price it's an absolute steal. Great game that's had a lot for content out since its been released.

blockfighter

Even if it turns out to be not for me, CEX are offering €22 cash on trade in. So its a win win situation.

Ebay still takes punts?

Pac1Man

I failed miserably on my promise to go digital only for the Switch. A full game on a physical cart makes my bones fizz too much to ignore.

Picked up the Axiom Verge Multiverse Edition.





A couple of surprises. The reverse cover has a cyberpunk/apocalyptic version of Super Mario Bros.




Secondly, the very back page of the artbook contains a passage from this one-man developer Tom Happ stating that the publisher BadLand Games are donating 75% of all profit from the physical versions towards treatment for the developer's son who took ill with a life-long neurological condition shortly after birth. Nice touch.

That's a lovely thing alright, and at €39.99 in Gamestop a nice near price match with Amazon as well.
Must see what I have to trade in the pile and pick it up.

Nice get there Pac1Man. There's no difference in the game itself is there? Just bought it from the e-shop the other night before the sale ended. My first e-shop purchase. :pac:

No, no difference. Haven't started it yet though. Heard great things about it.

This arrived today. Smaller than I imagined from the photos.

They're not all Nintendo related but I'm too lazy to take two pictures.

I always loved Pilotwings 64 but never got the love that the Snes original received, and continues to receive.

wheresmahbombs

Still have to hook up my OG SNES eventually and give PW a try.

I got a heap of Minty Ninty Goodness this evening
Already posted them on the A&R forum but here's the relevant stuff
A Japanese GameCube, spice colour
A Super Controller 2 for the Famicom
Super Bomberman 2 for the Super Famicom
The following Famicom games
Rockman 4&5, Salamander.
Pretty nice haul.

Got dragon ball z xenoverse 2 for the switch last week.

25 euros new on Amazon I am loving the game!!!

It plays so well for a fighter on a handheld console.

Only think it eats battry on the switch !!!

Bayonetta Non Stop Climax Edition arrived last weekend from good old Japan. It was pricey but consider the price its now selling for I've made a nice little investment for myself.

Great to have both games on cartridges.

Corholio

Friend in US picked this up for me cheap in store closing down there. Released only in the US last year for Black Friday.

Sort of horrible and absolutely lovely all in the one go. Very envious.

Ooh, love it!

A lucky find in CeX, especially since my childhood copy ceases to function. And the price tag makes it more convenient, even more so for a GameCube game.

Mr.Saturn

Fun fact: playing the Link-less versions of Soul Calibur 2 is actually a crime against nature.

wheresmahbombs

An accidental double-post there. Woops :P!
