Cheap Arse Gaffer (Euro Gaming) Thread 2 - Add to your backlog with ease

Is there anywhere aside from Sainsbury's that sell 3DS e-shop cards? (preferably online) I've heard ASDA do as well but none of the ones I've tried have ever had any. Seems pretty ridiculous that the likes of GAME still don't sell them in-store or online :/
 
I found the PS3 version of Shadows the Damned for £14.99 In HMV (Belfast) today. So I bought it and cancelled my Zavvi order. I guess it's worth trying if the last shipment really has ran out at all the online retailers.
 
^ some Sony eBay outlet that takes like 2 years to ship anything.

Sadly you did; they were price matching Play who sold out (no need to take a loss after that, now if Amazon sells out first they keep the price low as a way to keep you going to them rather than the other retailer, sometimes even after other retailer has sold ot).

They're not, It took a while for them to cancel the cheap 16gb Vita Cards but they did. Also cancelled the cheap MGS HD Collection.

Saying that I do still have an FFXIV PS3 that was mispriced at £7.82 in November. It'd be nice if they don't cancel the orders but I fully expect them too.

You may be right in the end, but so far they're still all good. Fingers crossed!

Inazuma Eleven and Kingdom Hearts DS both £5 in my local Morrisons January sales/"please take this shit off our hands" aisle. Not bad at all!

Either expired or store specific. I found a copy in the regular section labelled £19.99 rang up as that.

On the other hand Morrisons do have Pilotwings Resort for £7 (or this is store specific too ugh...). It was in the chart section...well one of the two DS/3DS charts (there didn't seem to be any logic to why something was in one or the other).

Meaning I now have enough codes to enter the win a 3DS competition & free Kid Icarus 3D classic thing...or would have if I did not leave Mario Kart 7 at home (and really don't want to get into the whole "you're buying games for systems you don't even own" argument with my parents)

Resident Evil: Mercenaries is £17.49 at Amazon at the moment. That's about as cheap as I've seen it. Worth the pick up?

If you've got someone to play multiplayer with it certainly is, though I speak about local MP here, I can't vouch for the online. Single player is okay but it wont last very long.
I actually got it cheaper than that a month after its release on Amazon, the prices jumped back up it seems.

Actually GAME started stocking them on Wednesday, we were sent a pack each of the £15 and £25 vouchers. They should be displayed underneath the 3DS, DS and Wii hardware bundle sections, however you may have to ask as some of the stores might not have enough of the hooks required to display them.

Are you guys getting the limited edition Zelda eshop cards? I remember they were supposed to be released last year as a part of the Zelda 25th anniversary but I've never seen them anywhere in London. I've heard about them popping up in Europe though.

Just an off topic question but it would be great if you answer, how are ps vita preorders doing at your store, as i am in two minds whether to buy on release (and it gets a price drop 2 months later) or wait for a price drop.
 
Mega Monday is up and has some great prices this week

Dark Souls 14.95
Rayman 14.95
Shadows of the Damned 10.95
Final Fantasy 2 (PSP) £6.95
