New Ninty Gets!

CiDeRmAn

Sorry to the most awesome mod in these parts for starting such a thread.
And I acknowledge the overlap between this forum and the retro game forum.
But I think Nintendo fans out there who love their WiiU and Wii, maybe love their new 3DSXL, should be aware of the Ninty fresh goodness out there and purchases of same.
Perhaps expanding knowledge and encouraging awesome spending on Nintendo gems they might never have come across.

Today I got three things of interest.

First was a lovely mint Gameboy Micro, dressed in black.
This console is a real peach, and hosts a tiny form factor and a small, crisp screen.
This is probably my 4th GB Micro over the years and a fabulous piece of kit.
No Nintendo owner who loves the company's output should be without one.
Like the GBA and GBA:SP it is compatible with the entire GBA back catalogue, but unlike those other machines the GB Micro won't run your Gameboy or Gameboy Color library.

I also picked up Boktai and Boktai 2, both made by Kojima, the gent behind Metal Gear Solid and Zone of Enders, very nice GBA rpgs they are too, using actual sunlight to power up your weapon.

So, a few very nice Nintendo gets there.
I can't recommend picking up Nintendo hardware enough, it is almost all worth having, aside perhaps for the badly made Wii Mini, piece of sh1te that it is.

I forgot to post my Shin Megami Tensei IV Final / Apocalypse that I got.

Love when stuff works out like that Ciderman BTW.

Got myself a €44.99 copy of LoZ:Twilight Princess including soundtrack/Amiibo in Argos Swords, had a €5 gift card and was owed €20 from somewhere else, so it cost me €20!
Woohoo!

Just got Monster Hunter Tri unopened for wii as a gift, pity I has it already.

Another get this morning, the top/jumper I wanted for the Christmas beers (typical). It's Mario themed in light blue. Not official Ninty of course

I was in CEX and got a couple of bits, the non Nintendo Outrun 2 for the Xbox and Moto Racer for the DS.
The latter I used to play on the PC, and I didn't know it was released on the DS, seems pretty nice too, plenty of content.

My Sanrio Amiibo cards came this morning, very cute, looking forward to using them.
Ridiculous size box though, could have been sent in an envelope with cardboard.

Still don't know what game...

He bid £39.??, I bid £40.?? just in case someone bid £40 or a few pence extra. This guy must have some amount of money. There was at least 26 bids on video games in the past hour, like I said that was all that could fit on the page. 650 individual bids on 650 separate games. It really irked me and a similar thing happened with a Wii U game in the past couple of weeks. I maybe should have left it. I'm having a rotten time of late buying online, cancelled orders, waiting over a month for refunds, slow post. And this morning a game arrived with no manual. I hate that, they said it did. A game with no manual, it ruins the whole purchase. I don't know where I'm going to find that. I probably won't.

CastorTroy

Which game?
Thing is that he wouldn't know how much you bid, unless there's a way to find out. So by him bidding, he must've just wanted the game and wasn't willing to go over the amount he bid, since it's only then your higher amount would kick in.

I bought a rare game for Wii on Ebay this morning. It's even rarer again because it's brand new and sealed. However, I'm annoyed as my bid was pushed to the limit and double what the previous price was. It went from £20 to over £40 by one flyby bidder and a single bid with seconds to go. Looking at his bidding history in the past hour it couldn't list all his bids as the page was filled, all on video games. 650 bids on 650 games in the past month alone. He sucked all the enjoyment out of winning the auction. What are people like him at? I think he enjoys driving the prices of games up on people. I nearly feel like selling the game on when I get it as it went from a collectible bargain to a wreckless impulse buy. Did you ever hear of mailbox baseball? That's exactly what it feels like this guy is doing.

I'm frantically trying to scan that screenshot on my n3DS but it's just not working. Curse you NFC and your brutal murder of the QR Code!

I got my 2 favourite characters in AC's Amiibo cards.

No More Heroes 2 is hard to find these days.
I picked it up eventually though, along with the PS3 remake of the original.

RobbingBandit

Guilty Gear what an overlooked franchise, No More Heroes is such a great game too, Pikmin needs no words great set of bargains.

Picked up these three in CeX for €12.50 total. The Wii is such a a great console, what an amazing line up and variation of games (admittedly amongst heaps of rubbish.)

Well whatever you do don't selling the Go Plus to CEX, I have a 7 year old who's Pokemon mad these days and would love it.

There may be some movement on that one.
Cidonalad loves the other Niantic game, Ingress, but if Pokemon Go is off the table you'll be the first. And it'll be the retail only, none of that "r@re" sh1te.

Damn, looks like I jumped the gun with buying the two Fire Emblem games for my son for Christmas...
Now he wants Dishonored 2, so there carts will be heading for CEX!

Doesn't seem pushed on Pokémon Go either, which makes my buying him the Pokémon Go Plus device seem a little premature....

Dammit!

I saw the next wave of gen 2 Pokemon are due soon, not sure if it's reliable so don't give up just yet.

Is Corpse Party good? Loving that theme song on the estore

Found it more sad than scary, was talking a bit about it on the horrorthon thread in gaming general.
So far I'd recommend it, the newer 3DS version looks really good, I'm playing it on PSP ATM.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions arrived in the post. Looking forward to giving it a go not yet though, I'm enjoying Corpse Party right now

I cracked, gods damn I love Darunia, Robin Williams would have been a lock to play him in a live action Zelda film.
