I assume that this is Samus Returns that you're referring to? You've got me somewhat worried now - where have we seen it listed so far (other than Amazon.fr, as below)?

It looks like it's not yet gone up on the Nintendo UK online store at least, but they do have a "register your interest" page now.

It got cancelled, all you missed out on was a 5 euro voucher.
 
Amazon's 20% off selected Warehouse items for Prime members has kicked in again and runs for the next week. Just had PSVR (like new) listed for £226.10. Will be tonnes of other good offers throughout the week but getting them is tricky as anything decent usually sells out within minutes of being listed.

I got my PS4 Pro for £255 using this last November. It was listed as Like New and the only fault was a tiny rip on the bottom of the box. Everything else was still sealed and unopened and I've had no issues with it

Got a PS4 Pro for £265 a couple of weeks ago and an Xbox One a couple of years ago for £250 on Warehouse deals. All that was wrong with them was tiny dents on the boxes with everything sealed and unused.

Also managed to pick up a 27 inch monitor that had £150 off the RRP due to slight damage on the box and no issues with the monitor itself.

Warehouse deals can be great and I tend to look at them first to try and pick up a bargain.
 
Just grabbed the Sony Platinum headset for £61 after the discount

(The item may come repackaged. Missing shrink-wrap, activation codes for bonus online content may be missing or expired.)

Also ordered the LG SJ9 Dolby Atmos soundbar the other day from a Czech republic store at £650 instead of the £999 over here.

Was reading that pro and vr were not working with the 20% off. Haven't tried it myself.

VR worked as I had one in my basket for a friend, but he decided he didn't want it.

It's on Amazon Germany at the moment for 99 Euro's (which could drop before release) if you're still after it.

For anyone who has one, how's the D-pad? I heard some negative views online, quite negative in fact, which seemed weird.

Had mine since launch and I use it all the time.
Never had a single issue with mine, even in Puyo Puyo Tetris where most of the complaints seem to stem from.

I was in a Saturn a few weeks ago and saw they had Pokemon White 2 for 60 Euros and a look on their website afterward found some of the old DS era Pokemon games for the same price
but not HG/SS or Platinum which I seem to recall are the ones in high demand
so I wonder if it is someone thinking "oh vintage" about this.

The old DS Pokémon games got so expensive because of Pokémon Go. They aren't even sold by Nintendo anymore, but by ak tronik, a publisher that takes old games and sells them at cheap prices. I'm not sure if they simply had old stock of those DS games and made big money, or if they did another print run which would explain the high costs.

In this case it's not the DS games though. It's a new product ID (that means the code you always see underneath the barcode, and in this case it is indeed linked to Nintendo), and the product is supposed to launch the same date as the VC versions.

Nintendo officially complete ended production of all DS games a while back, so it must be old stock ...(or fakes, lol).

Didn't find anything wrong with it.., only played a little played Zelda and the arms demo/test anyway, also it works on pc, but only tried in bayo2 on cemu. So maybe those aren't the best games to talk about the D-pad.

They just charge me this morning, but the page only says " In Progress, charged", not dispatched or posted, yours?
Click to expand...

Not been charged yet, on the website mine says "In Progress" and if I click on it it says "Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age - Includes a T-Shirt on PS4 - Hold"

Probably dispatched tomorrow then.

Although my Zelda got dispatched at like 3pm from Simply.

Maybe it's something like this, just with a download code for the original game:
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B014RF9G0S/

Or some other "special edition".

Like mentioned before, it's no ak tronic stuff reselling the old DS games.
 
Did anyone get a dispatch for FFXII with TGC yet? Not bothered about getting it early, but I preordered a bunch of things in one order so I just want to make sure they don't for something stupid like wait until the last thing is in stock.

Those were sold for 50 EUR though, 69.99 EUR is very steep. I also asked Saturn but they said they have no further information yet.

Those were originally sold for 99 or 109 EUR. Perhaps it's really this though and they are trying to get rid of 2DS stock.

Probably a price holder. It's not unsual for Saturn (or Media Markt) to put things out for 69,99€ at first if they haven't any further information at the time given. From my observations it's mostly a thing for Nintendo stuff.

Looks like a solid deal, but hows the game and dlc?
Click to expand...

I grabbed it on PC at the steam sale and am really enjoying it.
It's along the lines of games where you take over territory by shooting things rather than GTA style where its lots of different missions. Might be repetitive and grindey for some because it's basically an open world third person shooter so the nearest games would be Saboteur, Red Faction Guerrilla (without the destruction), Watch Dogs (only less iconic/ironic) and Just Cause (though more grounded).

Playing it now and loving it. I had a colleague who played it and haaaaated it.
Can't say about the DLC though.
