Couple hundred pounds of stuff. No furniture, but a bunch of electronics. Unfortunately, I'm going from Alberta to Ontario. Can you recommend any freight shipping companies to look at?
Has anyone else pre-ordered the Pokemon Go Plus bracelets from Amazon? I pre-ordered on June 29th and just got an email stating that my order had been delayed until the first week of September 
Also - yeah I know the game hasn't launched here yet but a 2-month delay is a long time and I can't tell if this is due to the demand for the bracelets, the fact that Pokemon Go hasn't launched here, the pending lockout or a combination of all three!

I pre-ordered one on June 15th, and I noticed earlier today that it finally showed a delivery date which was August 8th. Now mine has also been delayed until September. Not sure what this means but you're not the only one.

Just saw a huge thunderstorm warning for Toronto and I already heard thunder:

I must've slept through it. I love thunderstorms.
Yes.
Exact same situation for me.
I assume it's caused by a huge increase in business because everyone abandoned Canada Post (at least temporarily) since they are unstable and threatening work stoppages. Online retailers can't afford to play that game.

Can't wait to see the inevitable $79.99 CAD price tag on the Mini-NES.

I am fine with that.

The NES Mini is officially $79.99. Looks awesome, though.

Those MNES are going to be impossible to find. Hope I'm around whenever they hit Amazon. What a cool idea.
Better then $99.99
Yeah, that's what I was expecting.

A mini SNES would moisten the thighs.
As someone that has mostly avoided Nintendo consoles I would buy an entire series of preloaded consoles, all the way up to the Wii.
I would also be all over a preloaded mini PS1. Even though my PS TV is basically just that.
Where did you get that price from?
I'm having trouble understanding your issue. Are you saying that things you buy through PSN are defaulting to English when you play them?

The combined list of games would be a lot more expensive. I don't like the idea of hooking up another box. I really would rather just play them on a Wii U at this point but I might get it anyway for the novelty.
Seems like a gift for the 30/40 something mom, or dad this fall that would like a little flash back to their younger days. Gamers will have most of these in multiple formats already. NES controller is the real thing I need. The system is $79.99 CAD so, eh.. I like the tiny NES, it's cute, but no.

Est-ce que ton compte PSN est en français? Sinon vérifie dans les options du jeu, certains jeux permettent de changer la langue "in-game". Et ça t'arrive pour quel(s) jeu(x)? C'est rare, mais certains jeux n'ont pas de traduction française.
BTW if any scifi/fantasy fans are interested, TOR publishing is running a promotion for one free ebook each month. The first book is available until July 17th. Sign up here: http://ebookclub.tor.com/
I think it might be because certain games on PSN aren't localized with French subtitles, text, and/or dubbed audio tracks. It's best to check what languages are supported by each title before buying, is my advice. (But checking now, it appears that the PSN website doesn't even list what languages PSN downloadable titles support!!)
Some games are released in English and that's it, unfortunately.

Amazon just sent out my Lego Dimensions set....by Canada Post. Guess they're not worried anymore?

I mailed my passport renewal so I assume they are going to strike for real tonight. I have bad luck.
Wow, thanks for this, very cool. Plus the first book is awesome. Everyone jump on this!
Thought there wasn't any worries of a strike for a while more now?
And they work with the Wii too right? Solid price if so.

I think that's what they are suggesting. Hopefully that's the case. There have been so many false starts on a lockout/strike.
