    Some good games there and I'm pretty tempted by a few. Was it 5 games for €150 the last time though?

    Thanks for that. Too good to pass up. Seems to be an annual amazon de thing.

    Ordered Yoshi, Pokémon and Smash.
    Will sell/trade smash 'cause we've got it already.
    Pokémon will be a birthday present for daughter.
    Was looking for a cheaper Yoshi.

    There was a 5 game and a 3 game offer before.
    5 game offer was for cheaper games.

    It only saved me €10 when I got to checkout so I guess it's only really worth it for the high priced items.

    If Luigi Mansion was in it I'd probably go for it, but gonna pass for now.

    They could add more, they did before, but the others might sell out. I have my German BOTW from before. Still the best game ever! You could always get an expensive first party game in the list and sell/trade for BOTW either straight away or later. I think Smash seems to hold its price over time. For some reason.

    (Edit)
    Although looking at CEX right now I see a 15 quid deficit on trade from smash to botw.

    Disclsimer: assuming CEX still taking German packaged games.

    Good offer one that peaks my interest is Tokyo Mirage but Argos will have it for €48.99 tomorrow so I think I'll just buy it there instead.

    All this buying games to trade in to save money is a younger man's game I'm tired Jerry tired and angry.

    I see that The Way Remastered is on sale for £0.89 on the UK eshop. Is it worth picking up?

    Hi all,
    Where's the best place to pick up a "new" 3DS XL new or used? Shocked how they are holding their value.
    Thanks.

    I'll be buying a switch in the next few months, I'm in no rush currently as I'm working through a crazy backlog on the 3ds. Would it be worth picking up a few games in the 3 for 111eur sales on amazon or are there frequent sales? The games would be games I'll 100% be buying later in the year!

    Smyths had them plus digital Mario Kart for €110 in the run-up to Christmas. I was so tempted to buy one myself, but resisted. I kind of regret that now. I know it's silly, but had it been €99 or €100 I probably would have bought it. Anyway, they're gone now. :(

    Nintendo first party physical games are rarely on sale. Worth picking up Mario kart, Mario odyssey and Mario maker 2. Brilliant games. Or Smash if you like smash. Basically you're getting a game for free.

    It looks like they've been quietly discontinued with the release of the Switch lite.

    Most sites / shops have pulled listings and display. Nowhere has any in stock.

    Same as you, I stupidly held off on the one in Smyths :(

    You can get a new 2ds xl from Amazon de for about 137 delivered if you really want one.
    Nintendo 2DS XL Weiß + Orange https://www.amazon.de/dp/B071HBQGNX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_IvfjEbSFZT0EV

    Amazon Italy have the yellow picachu one for a lot less from 3rd party sellers, but they don't ship directly to Ireland. So maybe parcel motel or whatever ???

    Ya, that's my thinking! Just read that mediamarkt is doing a similar sale but with a bigger collection!

    With Mario kart , odyssey and breath of the wild you won't need any other console :)

    I've never used that company ... Media markt ... So maybe double check etc etc before you order. Amazon app is great for Amazon de as it's in English .. and easy to use , but the selection on media markt is way better.

    I think it is worth getting - ive done a few levels

    Its harder than flashback - some of the puzzles take a while to figure out

    Out of interest, how did you manage to fill in the postal details ?
    It looks like it's needs a German postal code.
    ..

    (edit)
    Doh - If I register first then buy ... rather than buying directly from shopping cart ...

    Hmmm
    "Delivery is only possible within Germany."

    Anyway ... I've enough of a backlog :)
