Some random bits I got over the last week

And my total tesco haul excluding doubles and stuff I picked up for other people. Too much to show it all individually. All in all it was €81 for everything here which is a steal.

Add to that everything else I got this month and there went my plans for not buying much this month!!

Avatan I have Super Street Fighter IV for the 3DS too, PM me your friend code so that we can battle online some time! :-)

€5. Should scan in at a fiver even if it's marked full price. All the same games are on sale in all tescos.

Thanks man, might head up and pick that up great game and would like to replay it. My Dark Souls 2 guide book arrived this morning

Its lovely, really happy I went for the american version so it matched the souls 1 guide in size

Completes my souls colletion nicely and is a great read.

Cex for €32. Don't worry, it wasn't a fiver or anything :P

Myrddin · 24-04-2014 10:04AM

The GET!'s continue, thanks again to Atavan for The Last Story

Spirit Tracks wasn't from the Tesco sale was it? The only decent DS game on sale in my local was De Blob 2 (€3).

Some Tesco's had it, alas none I was in. So I ended up buying it from Adverts from someone who did pick it up. I paid €12 for it, which isn't half bad for a new/sealed one really.

o1s1n · 24-04-2014 10:23AM

There were no decent 3DS games in my local Tesco, only shovelware.

Did pick up a few 360 games though for a fiver each.

CiDeRmAn · 24-04-2014 10:40AM

Just got the very fun Hugmonster for my Android phone, with the latest in HD ascii graphics!

Flaregon · 24-04-2014 11:22AM

Can't find the last story at any of the 4 tesco I went to lol, metroid was a long shot, seem last story was 2

o1s1n · 24-04-2014 11:31AM

My mam was the one looking in Tesco for me.

'Okay so some of the Wii games for €5, Singstar, Cooking blah blah, Metroid, some Guitar Hero or something..'

'Metroid?! is it Metroid Prime Trilogy?! (almost certain it is after seeing folks here picking it up)

'No, it's called something else, Metroid ...... Other M'

Just when you think you can't get burned any more by that game, it goes and does it again.

Keithgeo was at that too.
Luckily I got one. I love Kilrush. There's actually loads in CEx in limerick and they are mint like. €35 but still.

Retr0gamer · 24-04-2014 02:54PM

So picked up some games in the Rage. Ended up talking to some customers in there for ages.

I picked up The Note on PS1. Never heard of it. Supposedly it's a very bad but interesting horror game. Seems really rare, never came out in the US and the price was a bit lower than ebay so took a chance. It's in absolutely perfect nick as well.

Also took a chance on a NES game called Blue Shadow. It looked decent in the screenshots and was a 1990 game from Taito so figured it would be decent if not great.

Turns out it's the European name for Shadow of the Ninja which is an absolutely cracking ninja game from Natsume, delighted with that.

My mistake was worse haha, I know nothing about metroid if I'm honest so I checked here saying people where looking for it so being nice I bought 3 copies of it. Only when I got home I realised everyone was looking for trilogy not other m haha. .so I've 3 copies of it now.

It's a really good game, a bit like Shinobi/Ninja Gaiden with a bit of Bionic Commando thrown in.

Clare hall Tesco has a ton of PS3, 360 and DS stuff, in a few stands about the shop.
I picked up De Blob 2, Dragon Quest MJ2, Last Window and Viva Pinata, all for the DS. They had a decent selection of other bits and bobs.

Viva pinata on the DS is actually pretty decent if you liked the 360 version. I got it in tesco too but have played it previously via some other means...

Yeah, it sounded good when I read up on it. I'll get it again in the future for sure, when I have my AV Famicom. Any day now

Ah grand for me so, as according to Teso customer care I can just pop into Clarehall as its just down the road from me here in County Clare. :rolleyes:

Is that Dragon Quest MJ2 any good? I picked it up just cause it was Dragon Quest and cheap.

I got that for Cidonalad, his birthday is in a month or so and it's a game he's been after, at least part of his pressie anyway. And for €3 as well.
