    Sell me Godfather Black Hand for £5 and charge Ashley £60 for Mario Party 5. Karma will be restored!

     

    Damn, I love The Godfather : Blackhand Edition, but I might sell it if I get the 360 version.

     

    @Katie : Thanks for the advice. I've been really into Assassin's Creed recently, so I'm not online enough to sell my games well. :/

    Checked Amazon, Play and Game for prices.

    Hmm I have been hankering to play a Mario Party game lately, how much would you consider for Mario Party 8? Or, more probably (as I be broke), 5?

     

    5 sells for roughly £16 on Ebay and I'm not too keen to sell it for so little, so that's why I didn't put it on Ebay. :/

     

    As for Mario Party 8, £30 maybe? I'll double check Amazon and Play now to be certain. EDIT : £30 inc. P&P?

     

    Sorry if I seem extortionate, it's like a moral conflict I'm having inside of me where I feel guilty for charging too much, or I feel stupid for charging too little. >_>

    You expect people to pay £37.50 for Mario Party 8 pre-owned when the brand new RRP is £35? O_O

     

    Sorry for not responding. I couldn't access these forums yesterday. :/

     

    P&P is not profit for me, then minus the Ebay and PayPal fees and I'm left with about £30. I personally prefer to do private sales on forums like these because it cuts out the middlemen, but I understand that lots of people are apprehensive about such deals because there are no "guarantees" that I'm trustworthy.

     

    As for my prices, the Ebay ones were a shot in the dark. I needed to either reap maximum profit or nothing at all, because the fees would ensure that I'd lose a fair bit of cash.

     

    As for Flameboy's comments, I assume that you believe all of my goods should be sold for second hand prices. If so, then that is why I'm willing to go through hell and high water to prove the quality of my products. I'll gladly supply photos to anyone who asks. Also, I want to get more money than I would do if I sold them at CEX, that's why I'm here. Yet, I'm also selling them for less than CEX would. I believe I made a mistake earlier with the prices, but I guess I must've been rushing at the time.

     

    If anyone else has any questions, please ask. :)

    What would you be wanting for Pokemon Ruby and Fire Red?

     

    What would you be offering? They're worth £10 - £15 each at my local CEX (that's how much they'll pay me) so I'd be willing to sell them to you for less than their price (for selling, probably between £20 - £30. Not sure though) but more than how much they'll buy it for (£10 - £15).

     

    Even then, I'll have to clear all of my Pokémon off them, and I do enjoy the games, I just never have enough time for them anymore. :(

    The rumour sounded really exciting...until...

     

     

     

    ...

     

     

     

    ...

     

     

     

     

    That sentence killed all my excitement.

     

    Seconded. This would RUIN F-Zero completely! Also, go back to thrash metal BGM, it kicked ass!

     

    Play Mario Kart for friggin weapons, not a proper racer like F-Zero! I still think Ridge Racer 64 was the best Racing game to grace a Nintendo console, and yes, I have Burnout and Burnout 2.

    Part 2 is awesome, giving you only a handle full of units to use in each map against of ton of enemies usually. very short though.

     

    I just use Marcia for Chapter 3 there. Geoffrey is only needed to get rid of the Bowguns. Danved sucks in comparison to Nephenee, Astrid is very average, I never bothered with Makalov on PoR, Kieran is just annoying (though he is decent) and Geoffrey has average level ups. Marcia pwns them all so I let her hog the EXP there!

     

    And it really annoys the hell out of me, how the yank narrator calls Geoffrey, "Jee-OH-free". Speak English dammit!

    There probably are more, but i've not seen any that stick in my head like the Ike's Dad vs Black Night one from PoR. That'll be the difference maker.

     

    There's also really obvious places where more should have been added. The battle field engine is used WAY too much for telling stores, it doesn't look good and would be a lot better in FMV. I'd still like them to keep the text + picture conversations though, and the world map sequences.

     

    There are more FMVs in RD than in PoR. About 12 maybe more in RD, only 6 in PoR! Keep your eyes on Part 3, that's where the best stuff is at!

     

    The story gets very interesting as soon as you beat the Part 3 Endgame!

  11. Posted

    I'm on Part 3 Chapter 13! The PoR save data upload gives you're best FE characters stat boosts, and you can carry over coins from PoR which are now used in forging! There is also a PoR Support Conversation Gallery that opens up.

     

    Jill is the best character ever!

    I have Easy save data on my GC memory card and it works fine. I didn't try to upload the Easy data though, but it's supposed to freeze even if it's just present. So I'd say it's all fixed ;) ! It's actually becoming scarce in shops already so if you want a copy and don't want to have to spend £60 on Ebay for one, you'd better get RD tomorrow. Let's hope the bad reviews don't put off the next Wii FE game from being released over here! And yes, I think the reviews (ONM) are wrong, it's the best FE yet!

    how many hours would it take me again rufffly to complete the gc version on normal ?

     

    If you've never played it before and you don't want any characters to die, I'd say 40 hours minimum, up to 70 max! It isn't short or easy, not for first timers!

    So you now have two guns to choose from? Some of the weapons you'll unlock are rifles and some are handguns, so if you wanted a completely immersive experience, you could switch between the Squad Gun and BigBen! ;)

     

    Zechs, ephidel, which in-game gun do you use for your high scores?

     

    Awww, if I told you that you'd be cheating!

     

    Oh well, I use the XMW21. Level 99 isn't easy to reach either, it's very boring.

  15. Posted

    That's my point though, at that level the bonus of having the reticule off really doesn't seem to outweigh the increaed accuracy of having it on!

     

    Well I'm No. 1, Hawke is another pseudonym of mine. I intend to go back and get No. 3 in the world but with Fire Emblem coming out, I can't see myself doing that anytime soon.

     

    It's better if you're a Marshal and have the reticule off! How else did I get such a high score? As for mission levels, level 8 for 1, level 4 for 2, and level 6 for 8 are the best. Make sure you get all 5 SUCCESSes in missions 1 and 3 that includes the H2H bits. Actually, there is so much to tell you, I don't have the time currently. I've recently set up a clan at officialnintendomagazine.co.uk (still can't post urls) in the Nintendo Online Gaming thread. It's for ALL online Wii games, including Ghost Squad.

     

    Drop me a PM if you any questions, either about a game you might be stuck on or about the clan :) .

    Well, it may say I'm new to the forums, but I'm most certainly not new to MoH : H2.

     

    I am Eph1del, and I lead the Black Fang, a relaxed clan which recruits ANY player regardless of skill level. We view ourselves as a "Brotherhood of Gaming" and we are not "elitist" like so many other clans out there.

     

    So if you're up for some good fun games, then we're here to arrange that :) ! I may be one of the best players out there, but the whole point of gaming is lost as soon as you remove that "fun" aspect.

     

    We are also recruiting good players for clan wars, and even better, our clan has no overwhelming responsibilities, we're just here on a part-time basis.

     

    So, if you're interested come visit our thread on officialnintendomagazine.co.uk (I would have posted a working url here, but the forums says "No!" :( ) and check for our thread in Nintendo Online Gaming. Yeah, we haven't got our own forums yet (>_<) well, I did tell you it was relaxed :indeed: !

    You need Star Trek Conquest put on the list. It's out on the 22nd February, and it's decent! A lack of strategy games means this budget title (only £20) should be up there.

     

    It's been delayed until the 14th now. Just thought I'd keep you updated on it :) .

  20. Posted

    It's EPHIDEL, you know, off Fire Emblem : Sword of Flame, Black Fang, Nergal, Morphs. Oh well :indeed:

     

    Waiting for up to 5 months longer than the Americans though, for one of the definitive Wii titles and half, no I mean a third, of the reason why I bought a Wii. Brawl, BWii, and Radiant Dawn are all gaming gold, strategy combined with action, is my forte. We'll all have to stop using the net until it's released :shakehead Imagine if they delayed it 'till Chrimbo 08, that wouldn't surprise me.

     

    On a side note any VGM fans here?

  21. Posted

    Right, I'm new here and I am no spammer (damn you gamefaqs.com), but bear with me whilst I suggest this. There is, if you didn't know, a petition (groan!) about the overall constant delays we keep getting from NoE, and the recent Brawl delay was the last straw for many. If you want to support it here's the web address,

     

    petitiononline /noe123/petition.html

     

    Also, if you don't believe complaining at Nintendo works, then read this,

     

    destructoid /nintendo-finally-does-the-smart-thing-improving-release-dates-outside-japan-57709.phtml

     

    These are both .com addresses but I'm not allowed to post up links until I've done 15 posts, great :( Now that may be only relevant to Australian Nintendo fans, but it proves complaining works with Nintendo.

     

    Now, despite my plugging this petition all over the internet (the petition isn't mine you see), I think I've come up with a better idea. I quite simply think that NoE should e-mail all Club Nintendo (EU) members and ask one very simple question, which game do you want most/first? Mario Kart Wii or Super Smash Bros. Brawl? I think this would end all the current negative feelings towards NoE and simplify NoE's handling of the situation. I know (rightly or wrongly) that Brawl will be the most popular by far, and if it is NoE can prioritise it above Mario Kart. Brawl will undoubtedly be one of the definitive titles of the Wii's life and I feel that up to 5 months of internet spoilers and videos from America and Japan will undoubtedly ruin the experience for some people out there.

     

    I've joined this forum in the hope of finding like-minded, hardcore gamers like myself, not to plug some petition so please don't judge me on this first post of mine.
