    Skylanders 3DS starter pack thing for €10.

    In case it helps anyone looking for goodies in the current Tesco clearance sale, most of the games I mentioned above were in Tesco Clearwater, and there were plenty of them.

    (Wii Sports Resort and Wii Music, however, I saw in Tesco Phibsboro. Punch Out Wii may also be found on this shop's one lonely stand of clearance titles.)

    Only went in the evening time while I was doing other shopping but I got the last window for 3 euro which was a pleasant surprise.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin


    If anyone spots a LoZ Spirit Tracks, I'd appreciate it if they might pick it up for me? :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    Is pilot wings worth a tenner?
    I went to artane to have a look, mostly PS3/360 stuff but I got dragon quest VI for €3.

    Are Pokemon Pearl and Diamond popular games then? My knowledge of Pokemon isnt great.

    Would they be worth picking up cheap?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    I loved Diamond. My avatar is the starter from Diamond. As a single player experience they're worth it but if you want to experience pokemon that everyone is playing then I guess X and Y is your port of call. D/P is quite a few years old now.

    If Diamond is your first foray into pokemon though it'll be a damn good one. (Assuming you like turn based RPGs)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I love diamond and pearl even more than platinum :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Think they're turning off DS online support whichbwill mean no trading, battling or GTS for diamond / pearl. Awesome games though, still my fave gen I think.

    To the group at large - If you're ever in Loughlinstown during the week or Liffey valley at the weekend (These are locations I can meet to buy stuff off you, not locations of Tescos with tonnes of stock) and fancy picking up a spare Pokemon Diamond, loz Spirit Tracks or Metroid Trilogy I'd be delighted to make your acquaintance!

    Best I got myself was Ocarina of Time for a fiver and Skyward Sword for 1c on Friday.

    Mind if I ask, did you get Ocarina of Time in Tesco? Just to save me searching for it there if you didn't!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,753 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Not a massive selection in Carlow, but picked up Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands on the Wii for a fiver.

    Yes I did, they seem to all be gone now though, as is anything else half decent.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,559 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Some decent prices on preowned in Xtravision, at least in Letterkenny. Saw a couple DS Layton games and Mad World as part of 3 for €10. There were other games but those ones stood out.
    It's also where I got Darksiders II for €10.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,656 ✭✭✭✭OwaynOTT


    actually while I'm here - some €10 WiiU games in Parkway Xtravision ZombieU 10 euro and Mass effect 3 also only 10. some others knocked down as well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is €18.59 delivered from Zavvi
    and the
    Black Skull edition is £24.99STG (~€30) + €3.50 Parcel Motel from Grainger Games

    So roughly €34 delivered for the Black Skull Edition.. I'm struggling with this one.. I don't know whether or not to go for it. AAggh. :)
