I have about £7 worth of points to use at Shopto before the 31st or I lose them all, anyone got any suggestions? Can't use it on items that come out after the 31st unfortunately.

I have a question. Why are PlayStation 4 games cost more than PlayStation 3 games? They are identical game. It is not like the PlayStation 4 version has something extra that PlayStation 3 does not have. The only difference between the two is that PlayStation 4 version displays at higher resolution and runs at higher frame rate.

The Evil Within cost about £45 on PlayStation 4 version and about £35 on PlayStation 3 version. Why?

And I also noticed the Xbox One/Xbox 360 version are priced similar but they are noticeably a little bit cheaper than the PlayStation 4/3 versions. Why is that?
That's not going to be a problem in a year or so. PS4 is less than a year old. Have patience.

Well he wouldn't own a PS4, what'd be the point? It doesn't have any good exclusives and the multiformat stuff is identical to the PS3 stuff. It'd be an insane purchase.
...for now, but we all know that situation's not going to last. Just like Wii U's good games streak.

Plus, some people can deal with lower resolution and framerates just fine. Ask anyone with a PS Vita and a PS3/4, or a 3DS and anything else.

Bayonetta 2, you can bring the special edition of Bayonetta 1&2 down to the same price that Amazon had for their price mistake, just in case you didn't have it preordered there.

Amazon.de has the Bayo 2 first print availalbe. Be quick. The core game without Bayo 1 got reduced to 39.99€ as well. That's dirt cheap.

Wii U Basic with Wii Party U + White Wii Remote Plus + Nintendo Land + Bayonetta 1 + 2 only £179.84 at ShopTo.
 
Considering picking up the Bayonetta special edition I was wondering do you think the price will go down quickly or will it be like Mario games which never seem to lose their value?

This is thread worthy. "Do you want to play Bayonetta 2 and you don't have a Wii U? Just £179.84 for GOTG (plus GOTLG)."

Go ahead. I'd rather not see people making jokes about the price and how they'll wait for it to drop to whatever they think is low enough.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure one of the first posts will be "will get it when it's 100pounds" or something like that :/

180pounds is amazing for that deal

No way. Initially I said I'd wait until the Wii U was £200 but now that I see this deal, I think I'll wait until the Wii U is £100.

And there you go :( I feel trolled.

I think if this will help someone get it, it will worth the risk of trolling.

For me the problem with this deal is that while the price is good, I'm not at all interested in Nintendo Land, an additional Wiimote nor Wii Party U. So it doesn't really matter how good you guys think the price is for that collection. I don't want THAT collection so it's not really a useful deal to me. And that's not trolling. And saying that I would want Bayo 1+2 plus a Wii Basic/Premium for a nicer price without uninteresting tacked on products isn't either. Now, if I could trim down the price by removing those things, then we could talk about trolling, because that would be pretty awesome :) Unfortunately, shopto won't ship anything to Sweden last I checked so it doesn't really matter much to me anyhow, just saying.

You could sell Nintendo Land, an additional Wiimote and Wii Party U... you could probably get €40 total or so, maybe even more for those.

This bundle (Wii Party U bundle) is the cheapest bundle available anyhow, as far as I know, with or without games. It's £140 for the console, if you exclude Bayo 1 & 2.

Amazon.es has Captain Toad Treasure Tracker for 31€ if one of you is interested. They probably ship to your country too.

Edit: Meh already posted, sorry.

Thanks, cancelled my pre-order on amazon.co.uk (which would've been 43 euro including shipping) to this one (35 incl shipping) - and it comes 5-6 days earlier!
 
If anyone's got Nectar points, save 'em. In late November they're worth double* on videogames in Sainsbury's, so you could potentially pick up a half-price PS4 or Xbox One game.

(*in multiples of £10, you exchange £10 for a voucher worth £20, etc.)

In case they did ship, NintendoLand is surprisingly entertaining if you play with someone else. No clue about Wii Party U, though.

I couldn't find a topic where people give away Club Nintendo codes (I know there is one) - I got Japanese Wii U Pro Controller code up for grabs.

Did you order from Nippon Yassan?
If yes how long did the delivery take?
Thanks
 
What do you do when you cancelled an order from Zavvi and have not received an e-mail from them within an hour of your cancellation? And your order still say "Processing".

Anyone aware of any good deals/offers for a couple Wiimote Plus or motion plus add-ons, and WiiU Pro Controllers in the UK?

140 pounds would be a great price, agreed. Let's say I won't buy that many online titles from the WiiShop, will the lesser internal storage space matter all that much compared to the Premium's?

Granted, I know nothing of the games, I might like them, who knows :)

If you're planning to go digital on Wii U, the limited space in the basic barely matters. You'll need an external drive regardless as 32GB is nothing.

Which UK companies are still good at getting things to you the day before release? ShopTo has missed the last few I went for, alas, and I'd quite like to get onto Warlords of Draenor at midnight.

Shopto have always sent me preordered games a day before release.
