europe GAF please please help me, I've asked already three times in different threads and I've being ignored all times, not even a "we don't know! STFU!" response.

when and where can I preorder the special edition of the Zelda: Majoras Mask 3DS game which includes the steelbook, poster and other goodies in continental Europe?

it was announced in november! has nothing to do with yesterday's announcement and google has been fucking useless.

I need it in Germany but I'd be glad to learn from other amazon stores that are carrying it.

The only places I've seen it are game.co.uk (sold out) and Nintendo UKs official store, but I'm not sure if they ship out the country or not. Might be a specific retailer exclusive over there too?

Amazon.co.uk has a listing, but it's a 3rd party scalper.

Amazon.fr

I'm pretty sure amazon.de will put up a pre-order for it soon as well now that the release date is fixed.

May as well pre-order since Amazon don't charge until dispatch, then if it appears on .de, just cancel and pre-order there!

You asked that before. You can't.

 

[sphinx]

You asked that before. You can't.

I asked for the Uk amazon which uses pounds, not for the french one which uses Euros, just like Germany.

I guess I can't go into a random store, buy euro credit for amazon, and use it in the french site right?

EDIT: besides, why wont' amazon take paypal, such assholes

I used a Visa debit card to pre-order the New 3DS XL MM bundle this morning from Amazon.fr.

I used a Visa debit card to pre-order the New 3DS XL MM bundle this morning from Amazon.fr.

The type of card that everyone with a bank account in Germany has is a EC-Card, which is a special type of debit card that in most cases only works within Germany.

Visa and Master Card credit and debit cards are usually both referred to as credit cards and there's still a large number of people who don't own one, even though there really is no reason not to.

 

[Joni]

Any good deals on the Disney Infinity 2.0 stuff?

 

[ruttyboy]

For those in the UK (and presumably other countries), like me, who want the LE Monster Hunter 4U N3DS, but also want GAME to die in a fire, you can preorder it from Amazon.fr instead!

Including delivery, it actually saves you £30 on the hilarious £209.99 that GAME want and you don't have to support them, win-win.

Also, because you don't get a charger with it, it doesn't mater which country you get it from as you can buy a charger in your own country.

[Volotaire]

It seems like the N3DS will be around the £150 mark when it launches according to GAME preorders and £180 for the N3DSXL. How much is it to import a Australian N3DS again?

Cheaper, but about the same once you pay tax.

£165 or £185 on 365games http://www.365games.co.uk/search/new+3ds/sort-relevance

 

[gamerforever]

That's VAT inclusive - we don't add tax on after like some other countries do, which is pretty shocking.

 

[cluderi]

Not strictly a bargain but given stock levels it might be rare (sold fairly quickly in USA)

Nintendo Majoras Mask Limited Edition 3DS XL with game pre-loaded plus charger plus skill kid figurine for £209.99 on the Nintendo store.

Don't worry about it too much, I'm pretty sure it will be up on amazon.de within the next few days.
I also don't think it will sell out as fast as in the US.

 

[daxy]

15% Zavvi Netherlands code if anyone wants it. Works on pre-orders, including New 3DS. The Majora's Mask N3DS XL bundle, for example, drops down to 195 EUR. There have been 20% codes given out recently as well, so check your email or ask around if anyone's got one perhaps.

To add to this, because of the way Nintendo tend to make Collector's Editions and hardware bundles for Europe as a whole, containing documentation for all European languages, chances are the box you'd get off Amazon.fr is identical to one you'd get from GAME.

Also, as it stands, there's no way to get the Majora's Mask N3DS XL from the UK (that I know of), but it's available on Amazon.fr.

EDIT: It appears that the Official UK Nintendo Store has put up the MM 3DS XL in the last hour.

Nah, I meant the import one was cheaper unless you get hit with the tax bill once it comes into the UK.

 

[Fjolle]

You can order it on coolshop.de as far as I can see, and pay with paypal...

But it's danish prices

Hilarious, it actually works out cheaper to order the MH4 (or Majora's Mask) Special Edition from Amazon France as I posted above.

Yeah. They used to have them cheaper but they kept marking up due to popularity.

any uk-based stockists selling n3ds coverplates? Can't be bothered with play-asia right now

Thanks, got it from there and will cancel my GAME order.

If I remember right, all MH games in the EU has a language selection menu in the beginning for the main EU languages so I don't think there is any reason to worry about importing this to UK.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Amazon uk has it for 27£.

Thanks for your response

 

[Benedict]

Will Amazon gift certificates work on all Amazon stores?
So if I have a £60 gift certificate for co.uk. Will I be able to use it on the .fr store as well?

I would doubt it but it'd be easy enough to try and checkout to see what happens.

no its for each website i THINK mate

Now sold out - I'm glad that I got my order in promptly!

 

[sphinx]

I went there, site is completely in german, but doesn't have the limited edition game it seems...


maybe it was there and it's sold out already?

It was there earlier today for 80€.. Both on the danish and german site. Now it seems to be gone...

Their "sold out" stuff is usually greyed out, but this one just disappeared.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Does anyone know the cheapest place to buy Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on PS4? I saw it pre-owned in Game yesterday for £13, and if there's not a comparable new price I'll probably pop back in and buy it.

Edit - I'm in the UK.

That sounds good to me. It only hit £20 not long ago

 

[evilvort3x]

if you can get a second copy of tombraider for 13 i will take one as still need it myself!

besides.... €80...??

are they fucking kidding us?

I don't remember any special edition game done by nintendo costing that much.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

With Rakuten.co.uk you can use the code JANGIFT10 to get £10 off when you spend £40 with a single merchant. I'm having a look around; may use it to get a couple of PS4 games I've been interested in. Prices on there don't seem great, but you can get a Blue DualShock 4 for £36.

 

[Fjolle]

I'm pretty sure it's because Coolshop is danish and games are expensive in Denmark..

They have it again here.

 

[Diablohead]

Thief for xbox one is £10 at tesco direct, sorry if this was already posted.

Advanced Warfare for xbox one is £25, lowest I have seen it.

Advanced warfare PS4 £25

Anyone know the best price for The Last of Us Remastered on PS4? I don't really mind digital or physical. It's £20 From cdkeys, I might go for that if there's not a better deal around.

$20 in a few places if you have (or can create) a US account

One example : http://gamedealdaily.com/playstation-4/playstation-4-downloads/

It was also on Groupon http://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-the-last-of-us-remastered-digital-download-card-for-ps4

Thanks, I think I might get it from Groupon if they take PayPal. Need to reactivate my NA account on my PS4. I take it there's no weird trickery to running a digital game from another territory, like I can play online as normal and it will detect patches as normal, etc?

Correct - you need a US account on your system - your machine set as that accounts 'home' system then you can download it and *any* account on your system can play that game as normal

It patches / updates the same as anything else the one thing you need to be wary of is DLC which *is* region locked - no worry for TLOU but is will be for other things - you need to buy the DLC from the region the game is from

So for example if you buy COD cheap right now from the US PSN sale you need to also buy the map packs from there - UK or European map packs would *not* work

 

[Uthred]

Anbody used http://www.gamesrocket.com before and if so did they get the German or EU version of the game? Pre-ordered Resident Evil HD but then I saw on the receipt that theyre a german company and the german version of RE HD is missing content.

Thanks for the help. It looks like Groupon need a US postal address to deliver the download card to, so I'm gonna have to pass on it for the moment. The other website, the game daily deals one is out of stock.
