    if anyone gets a second copy of wither the mario kart or zelda I would be interested. I can't get to any of the stores as I broke my foot and my helpers are sick to the sight of me and won't go for me.

    These were mine for today. I did also spot someone with 5/6 copies of Metroid prime trilogy in their hand so missed out on those but they may be in other stores. A staff member was also saying she got a Wii console for €50, Id say it's the original Wii and not a Wii U, so check the console prices too.

    I'll also be honest and say I was very bold and did pick up a couple of copies of Ocarina and traded them in to CEX to cover the cost of Luigis mansion as that was full price.

    In nutgtove there are lots of wiis, some bundled with wii fit, for fifty quid, they're not near the game section itself though. All the copies of OOT were gone when I had a look an hour ago.

    Weren't the mini ones. Think they were just the black and white ones, maybe the Mario kart or wii sports resort pack.
    They had a batman psp pack for fifty (psp 3000 I think), and ds lights for fifty which were all gone.

    The Last Story is also in this for a fiver, so said my brother. He got me a copy but won't say if its the limited edition or not and he got Metroid Trilogy as well the little blither.
    Also Pokemon Park 2 for Wii is in it, I know there's at least one Pokemon lover in here.

    Yeah I spotted poképark wii for a fiver too but the last copy was also in the hands of that guy that had all the copies of metroid prime.

    Decided to pop back to Nutgrove just now to see if anything else was put out for the morning before the store closes. They have black wii mario kart console bundles for €99, kinects for €99, wii fit board only for €30, wii fit with game for €50, loads of mario karts for a tenner and the wii sports resort with the motion plus for a tenner. They had 2 of these left so I bought one for €50, and also picked up another tekken for Ciderman. No sign of metroid or xboxes. I've waaay overspent this month! :o

    And just discovered a bit of a problem upon unboxing the psp. The battery, presumably from so many years of non use, is swollen/bulging and I'd assume quite dangerous. So just beware if you do pick one up.

    Exact same thing happened to me over a year ago buying a reduced psp from Tesco.
    They sourced a new battery for me free of charge.

    Called into the store.
    Showed them the swollen battery and they took my details & got in contact a week later.

    Took another week for them to source a battery from their supplier if I remember correctly.

    Hey Atavan, my local Tesco hasn't got any of those Mario Kart but has the Pokemon yoke, if I can get one would you do a swap for the Mario Kart and I'd cover the difference. They also have Pokemon Rumble, that any use to you?

    Yeah sure! I'll pop in tomorrow evening and pick mario kart up. I have rumble so just pokepark would be fine.
