    I brought this up last week. I thought it was a good deal but delighted I held off because I got a second hand 32 gb with Mk8, smash bros, 3Dworld, new super Mario Bros U and some Disney crap as well. Everything working and delivered to my door for €250.

    Nice one! The games alone are worth over €200.

    It gets you €28 cash or €35 store credit. You can buy it with postage for less than €23 posted.

    There's 36 copies in stock at CEX. Maybe a few people are buying and trading it in for a profit or maybe it's as bad as people say.

    I'm guessing it's as bad as they say... Which is a pity, because despite the delays, they did still publish it on the Wii U.
    On a brighter note (for them) Sales will be through the roof at this rate :D

    What amazon deals?

    There's £10 off £50 until midnight and some customers can receive £10 credit when buying a £40 gift card. The credit isn't added to your account immediately, so you won't be able to use it in conjunction with the £50 offer now.

    Just read the add again. It says €220 and then below it €200. Didn't see the €200 when I originally posted.

    I presume it's still €200 so.

    It's that price in Argos also, which gives alternative options to some people. :)

    Is it a promotion of some description or did they have a flood or something, been smited by the gods for selling games at too high a markup to gullible idiots who never heard of pricespy, or shopping around for that matter.

    I didn't ask, didn't look flooded or nothing, just wasn't open and the games were out of the shop.

    Should be, most EU games come with at least 5 languages on them.

    As for selecting languages, usually it uses the system's language to choose.
