You know you could just ask them, right?

That controller is for the Wii so you'll need to attach it to a Wii remote via the wire coming from the top of the controller. It's a different model to the Wii U Pro controller which is completely wireless.
I already tried, as well as asking if the "Wii U Lens Cleaning Kit" would be made available on the shop. They replied:-
However they are incorrect - the lens cleaning kit listed on their online shop is for the original Wii, not the Wii U version. This doesnt fill me with confidence that the person who replied actually knew what the difference was between the standard and pro Wii classic controllers.Nintendo UK said:
...Also, you said basically the same thing to me last time! What makes you think that Nintendo's UK customer support staff are so knowledgeable?
But why are you talking about the Wii U Pro controller? He is talking about the Wii Classic Controller Pro.
Hahah totally didn't notice that
They "should" know, that's why I keep suggesting it. You could ask them to clarify it again.
Your right, they should know - but in my experience thats rarely the case!Hahah totally didn't notice that

Maybe i'll try asking them again...
<EDIT> Just sent them another email also mentioning that the Red Wii Classic Controller Pro listed on the shop does specifically state its a Pro controller in both the title and description, which just adds to my gut feeling that the White controllers picture is incorrect and that it should actually show a picture of the standard/original Wii Classic Controller.

Vouchercloud has another 10% off GAME code up.
I can't get it to work. Clicking show code rarely shows it and when it does I copy and paste and GAME claims it is invalid.

Zelda Wind Waker HD is £29.99 at Zavvi - http://www.zavvi.com/games-wii-u/the-legend-of-zelda-the-wind-waker-hd/10798261.html
So I have just received a reply:-
Looks like my gut feeling was right after all!Nintendo UK said:
Also, apologies for taking this thread slightly off topic.
Well, I feel this issue deserves just as much discussion as the cheapest deals as it cleared up a confusing product listing and even helped out NoE with their bugged out inventory system

Great price!! Thanks!! Picked up Zelda and W101 with a 10% coupon and some reward points for a grand total of 68.95 EUR.
Now I'll just cross my fingers on the delivery. Games are in "awaiting stock pick" just now, last time it took a while before unlocking from this status and actually shipping; then almost 3 weeks to get to my home. Let's see.
EDIT: awaiting despatch, yay!
Had a go at trying to get the 32GB Vita card using Flubit last night. They offered it for £37, which I thought was interesting as Amazon didn't have stock. They took my money and said they'll source it.
Got an email earlier saying they couldn't source it and are refunding the money. Kind of expected that but with them taking the money, I had some hope that they might have found another retailer somewhere.
Oh well, back to looking for a card.

If I wasn't planning on buying a PC at the end of the year I'd jump on that so badly.

Yeah, I'd be annoyed about all these deals so close to getting mine, if I hadn't used it a ton already. My £150 Wifi model + Soul Sacrifice looks a little laughable compared to some of the deals going around just now. Great time to get one.
I hate you and I hate this thread for what you have done to my wallet! Just reserved one.
FYI the deal page online is here: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9387762.htm?cmpid=COJUN&catalogId=10001&_%24ja=tsid%3A11674|prd%3A1546795&storeId=10151&referredURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.argos.co.uk%2Fstatic%2FProduct%2FpartNumber%2F9387762.htm&referrer=COJUN#pdpPromotions (scroll down to special offers)

In store in Sainsbury's, I managed to pick up 2 black Wii Nunchucks (although, they had a couple of white ones too) for half price-ish £7.99 instead of £15.99. Also snagged Mario tennis Open 3DS for £9.99 and saw they had New Super Mario Bros U for £24.99. I would have got that for sure if I hadn't already paid £49.99 when WWHD was released *feelinsalty*
I'm wavering mightily on this too, but i'm conflicted over the new model that's launching...the micro USB port rather than the proprietary one, plus extra battery life is a real draw.

Wow, that's a damned tempting deal from Argos and there's one just round the corner.
Any info on how it meshes with the PS4 as that would sway me to an impulse buy.

Remote play (I believe) any PS4 title? Both on your home Wifi and out and about if you can find a decent enough connection.
I wish I could afford one myself, cracking deal.
I got invalid on that too - trying to apply it on a Wii U. I think it's just on games.

There were some great vita deals last Christmas, I wonder what will happen this year since there are already some crazy deals going on.
I wish someone would bundle it with P4G and a decent size card .

P4G seems like too much of a niche game to make that happen. But yeah: a decent memory card packed in would be a welcome change.

Not strictly gaming related. UK GAF. Amazon have free £2 Amazon MP3 credit over at Amazon local. It is applied to your Amazon account. There are some gaming related MP3s up on Amazon. You have until the 26th to spend it.
I'm applying it to games. GAME live support have told me it is invalid too...while the support conversation was fine I rated it 1 and left feedback stating they should not run promotions with vouchercloud if the code will not function.
So in other words I have to find a contact detail for vouchercloud...by which time GAME will pull the code as they always do. Edit: They have a form on the website.
It is not supposed to work on hardware anyway (but it always does, the message would be about basket contents if it did work).

Did anyone get the ten free games memory card from argos when they did that deal?

I know but I want a vita mainly because of that game so it would make the decision easier. A few years ago I would've pulled the trigger on the deals on this page without thinking but I'm pretty broke right now, will wait to see what black Friday brings.

I said DAYUM at that VIta offer. So tempted, even though payday isn't till the end of the month.
Resident Evil: Revelations (PC) @ Gamefly for £5.99 with the code "GFDOCT20UK"
So, is the game worth it?

Yes and almost any game is worth that much. Best RE since 4.
Bought!
Edit: Can't seem to get my key - the button for Get Activation Key appears on the page but when I click it it does nothing
Edit 2: It has appeared on my account page. Weird that the button does nothing :/
Popped into Blockbuster today for the first time in a while and they are doing 70% off a lot of older titles, and not just the standard Fifa 09s or 25 copies of Dark Sector.
I have no idea how well I've done here as these will be all be firsts for me but I got
- 70% off DMC 4 and Sin and Punishment: Successor of the Skies (£3.30 each instead of £11)
- 30% off Folklore (£9.80 from £14)
Are these any good? They had a lot of other good deals like Binary Domain and PoP: Forgotten Sands type stuff for £3.30 but I'd played most of them.
Now I'm sat here staring at them and I can't decide on which one to play first. What do I go with GAF?
