    This arrived in the post the other day. Been playing it for a few hours and it's quite good. Rather difficult though and not sure how I feel about the points system.

    Hope you enjoy it, pity the box and manual was a bit tatty.

    I'll swap out the box for a shovelware title, & re the manual, I'll keep my eye out for one but wouldn't be overly bothered by it. The price for this was less than most cart only counterparts, so I'm happy enough with it :)

    Just got Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga this morning, courtesy of eBay and parcel motel, around a tenner.
    My son really likes the series so, rather than use some sort of filthy flash cart, gonna buy them, go legit....

    Superstar Saga is fantastic, as is Partners in Time.
    I'd say your son'll love it Cidey!

    I think we'll make my position as one of the A&R moderators into a hereditary post.
    As a result y'all better be nice to Jack at the next Beers in mine!
    Sera, you're probably in his good books so you're ok!

    Absolutely loved the game

    Just paid a visit to Bookmart and Games exchange and picked up Indiana Jones and Super Pang for the Snes, Incoming for the DC and Street Fighter Anniversary for the Xbox.
    All for 40, happy days!

    How's the selection there now?

    I go by on the bus every day and always mean to stop in and have a look.

    You can't go wrong with a bit of Pang. Maybe you have baloonaphobia..

    Oh, they're unboxed, and the selection isn't incredible, however he has the intention of competing with RAGE and reckons he'll have a similar variety of stock but priced considerably keener.
    So, I'd say call in, he has a good deal on PS/2/Xbox/DC/GC games with 3 games for 20.

    No, but he did mention the deal isn't available to hermaphrodites....
    Which seems unfair

    Cross dressers, alcoholics and now hermaphrodites. Sure it's no wonder people go to Jamma+

    Needed a new Multimeter and a ESR meter is handy to check for bad caps in circuit without de-soldering, came with a free LCR meter which looks mighty impressive but I'm not yet sure how to use .

    I always feel so technical just before they explode in my face :pac:


    And a nice pile of assorted Eproms ready to burn .

    Yep, it's the UT61E .
    It's no Fluke or Gossen but a hell of a lot better than the € 5,- life dangering fuse less thing I had, that burned out after just 3 seconds of 240v .

    No, never called you that!

    So, to buy a Wii Mini at €55 or not to?
    Aware that they're unhackable but it's a Ninty device I don't own....
    A Ninty device with no perceivable purpose, as I have a Wii and WiiU.....
    Help me out my fellow A&R peeps!!!

    Presume it's used at that price? I'd buy it for that money & pack it away, might be an interesting little curiosity/collectible in the future, who knows...but for €55 you won't be too short changed if its not

    It's the photo of the game on the 3DS, meaning while having a dump he had the 3DS on his naked lap and his camera/phone poised to take a picture.
    Now, I don't know about you, but I'd find it difficult to focus on my primary reason to be in there with all that other stuff to organise!

    Plus, I would recommend giving his 3DS a clean with a hygienic wipe before you try it, given the proximity to his wiener during this whole experience (pun very much intended!)
