    Got a new 3ds in CeX for €185, traded in a pile of unwanted Blurays and stupidly enough Super Smash Bros 3D to get it, I'll be buying a 32gb micro sd for it tomorrow if #i can find one for €20.

    I also bought a screwdriver set to finally have a go at fixing my long dead 2ds, jebus that is one nasty machine once you get under the casing. I submitted to it about ten minutes ago as there are too many screws(that's what she said :D). I did also take apart my 3DS XL which was water damaged a few years back, still works but was fecked on the inside.

    In case anyone is looking for the screwdriver to open both the 2DS and 3DS/3DSXL/N3DS/N3DSXL casing it is a philips head 00 and 000 for the 2DS.

    I got this for my N3DS XL. It took about a week to arrive. I doubt you'll get a 32gb in a shop for 20.

    That Charizard tail better light up.

    A price drop from £41.25 to £27.85 meant I could finally justify picking up Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate.

    I'm somewhat tempted to get Hyrule Warriors next week just so I can say I've collected all the WiiU games I want before the next barrage of releases. :o

    Courtesy of Lidl today!

    They had a Donkey Kong one too (http://www.lidl.ie/en/Offers.htm?action=showDetail&id=24327)

    I was just in there and saw them.
    Nearly bought them but I actually have the original Game and Watch of DKjr, so I think I'd rather buy them in their original form, they're not that expensive.

    Disaster Day of Crisis. Turns out I knew next to nothing about this apart from its existence, the fact it wasn't released in the States, received mixed reviews and contains multiple types of gameplay. When I was looking at the case now, I realised it's a Nintendo IP. I thought it was third party. And only just watched a video of it now for the first time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,129 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Picked up Punch Out and Project Zero. They had Metroid Other M for about €3 as well. I know people complain about that game, but that is still a bargain.

    Fragile Dreams for the Wii arrived this morning, and minty fresh it is too.
    Its an unconventional but beautiful real time RPG and well worth owning on the console, putting to bed the notion that the Wii has little but Nintendo IP and mini game collections in its catalogue.

    Is it any good?

    That Project Zero 2 on Wii? How much? Been on my list of games to buy/play/turn off quickly & replace with Mario Kart to stave off the petrifiedness for a while now.

    Who knows. Will let you know in about a decade when it comes up in my backlog. :-)

    I bought Kirby Triple Deluxe on the 3DS eshop. It's my first Kirby game and it's so cute!

    They all are! Especially Epic Yarn on the Wii (and consequently, Yoshi's Wooly World looks equally adorable). The claymation look of the new Wii U Kirby game is stunning too.

    Picked up Kirby for the WiiU today.
    I figure it'll provide the right kind of high intensity training to get me in shape to beat the bosses in Bloodborne, I'm right aren't I?

    Jokes aside I think the combo of WiiU and PS4 has me pretty set for anything worth playing over the next while, with the occasional indie title on the PC or even the phone.
    Poor XboxOne, it is becoming a more and more distant purchase, maybe with Halo 5....

    I have a problem alright.

    Nice haul... Soul Bubbles is a cracker. :)


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


    Aye it was only 3 quid. Can't say no at that price.

    Well, aside from the wonderful Splatoon I picked up Game and Watch Collection Vol2 from my local CEX.
    A lovely DS game that was only available from Club Nintendo in Japan and the US, with a limited release on Club Nintendo in Aus as well.
    It contains two perfect recreations of Parachute and Octopus, two of the most iconic Game&Watch titles of all time, as well as a mash up game on the dual screens.

    Also as well as picking up the Splatoon bundle, Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush arrived Friday, and picked up Cursed Mountain yesterday

    Traded in my DS lite and 2 PS3 games for Super Mario 3D World at CEX today. Itching to play it now but have end of year assignment to finish. :/

    While looking for stuff to trade in I found a mint copy of Twilight Princess for the Wii in the middle of my DVD collection. I've never even played it yet and had completely forgotten about it. :cool:
