    i've been looking around dublin city centre lately and i cant find any good nintendo ds games (besides the ones i own), for instance, i havent seen diddy kong racing ds or mario and luigi partners in time in any shops. anyone know the best shop in dublin to pick up first party nintendo ds games, i dont really mind the price or if their second hand or not.

    any help appreciated :)

    Ebay might be good for second hand ones and try maybe Amazon for new ones?

    Would any of the games shops, the smaller ones like Game, Gamestop, order them for you?

    If any shop had thoses games preowned they would still cost upwards of €30 euro Hmv have just started preowned so mabey try there soon if you don't find then online.

    Agreed. Often the games aren't even a tenner cheaper for the pre-owned ones. The shops must make a killing on them as I reckon there is no way they give those kind of great prices on trade ins. I have seen wii games advertised as free when 2 other games are traded in.

    i've seen that and even took adavntage of it, nabbed advance wars dual strike and mortal kombat ds for 38 quid, but what i dont understand is that the games werent even second hand, the cases were absolutely emaculate aswell as the game itself and the manual

    Most of the trade in games are in immaculate condition, the carts are very robust as are the plastic clamshell boxes.

    Even if it is only a tenner the used game you get is often indistingusable form a new one and when you come to trade it in yourself you get the same (paltry) value as if you had bought it new.

    HMV are only starting out new in the preowned market, they took stock which was not selling new and transfered it to used, Op If I come across either of thoses games you want I will let you know.
