Nah gamestop mate all my Xbox stuff is gone I'm now a fully fledged ninty head again

Hmv trade prices are now the worst I have ever seen. I may dislike gamestop to a point but their trade in prices ain't bad with 25% extra off per ordered games etc

Since GAME closed down HMV's game prices have rocketed.

No they don't, they launch between then and the end of March.

Edit: I'm talking about Rayman and Lego City here. The others are launch day releases.

Its actually €380 in HMV that one

Nollog · 28-10-2012 02:00AM

There'll be a nintendo direct dealing with miiverse sometime before release.

Yep HMV seem to have the best prices.

Yes when it comes to a straight cash price they beat gamestop but their trade in prices are seen they are shocking bad IMO!! Had a few games hmv offered 32 GameStop offered 80 and 25% bonus brought it up to 100..

Another example is FIFA 13 Xbox 35 trade in in GameStop and 20 in hmv and with 25% on 35 makes gamestop bout 43 trade in value!!! It's a no brainer if u have stuff to trade

Corholio · 30-10-2012 02:10AM

Does anyone have a confirmed list of the launch day releases? The list I'm finding only have a few titles on them, not like the list on the last page.

sham69 · 30-10-2012 12:29PM

bit the bullet and put a deposit on one (sold my vita)
I went in to HMV asked if I could put a deposit of 200 down they said no.
Only 10 euro was needed for the actual deposit but he suggested putting the other money on a gift card which he did.
Went for the premium pack with nintendoland.
As its kinda for the kids, I don't think Zombieu would be suitable.
I think I will buy Mario seperately
Looking forward to getting it now..

nitromaster · 02-11-2012 11:35PM

Anyone got prices for Tesco yet or have any idea what they usually are like regarding pricing/etc for console launches?

:cool:

wampyrus77 · 04-11-2012 07:04PM

They have in general giving 2.5% not 10% recently...

Was actually strange. Was in Smyths yesterday and they have 10% off AC3 but less off the Collector's edition.
Think it's 10% off new releases for a week and 2.5% off other games.

Not anymore. There's 10% off a few new releases but 2.5% off most of them

Yes smyths loyalty card means nothing now IMO. Last game I bought a boards user here gave me staff discount because discount with loyalty card was2.5%

U know who you are and thanks

On another note thinking of not buying Nintendo land doesn't seem worth full retail price for a game. It's kinda like a souped up wii u demo
