Oh dear, your loss.

Are places likely to restock Little Mac? Seems sold out everywhere and I'd rather not spend £23 on ebay to get one.

I've not started on this yet but it seems like the Maltesers of video games, you can't stop yourself from playing just one more level.

I'd be a little surprised to see ED release on consoles, they've got their hands full with the PC build so it could take a long time to happen, if ever. I like the look of No Man's Sky but the way it takes about 10 seconds to take off from one planet, to hyperspace and land on another is a little off-putting. Makes it feel like the galaxy is the size of the ocean in Wind Waker.

Erm, does anyone in here sound annoyed? On the contrary, we're thrilled.

Out of curiosity, how many of you interested in this have heard of Elite: Dangerous? Because it's a space sim with 10x the depth and scope No Man's Sky. http://www.elitedangerous.com/

The packaging definitely makes them even more desirable. Really nice, though that's to be expected coming from the big N.

I've not even played the full game and already I want a sequel.

Because @Wii "didn't ask for it" to be a retail release

Nice Christmas surprise after all! Wouldn't have felt right playing it in January.

Massive thanks for the heads up Serebii, mine's been shipped as well now. That tops Captain Turd and Amoeba. Stunning wit. Now if you didn't also have to rely on two decade old Simpsons gags to try and be funny you'd be grand.

I wonder if it will be in Game stores on Friday?

@Wii still doesn't realise that these are cool figurines first, unlockables second. Anyway IGN sums the situation up nicely...

I just ordered another 5, this is getting really silly. I'm powerless to stop!

That's Star Citizen, I was talking about Elite. Pay to win, SC's development just gets better and better [/sarcasm] I wouldn't hold your breath re: consoles. I doubt it'll ever appear on a console, at least not any time soon.

The only thing you spend real money on are optional paint jobs for your ships.

Strange how it's out of stock on amazon

I'm gobsmacked they left out Mario Kart 8, every Game of the Year watch since its release they've been raving about it.

What do you mean by mini transaction heavy? Star Citizen is a very long way off I think, those devs threw in as much content to get done in one go whereas the Elite devs wanted to get the core mechanics in place and working well, before expanding down the line. Release is in one hour!!

HAPPY RELEASE DAY EVERYONE !!!!!!!!!!!!! Goodbye social life....

Not your problem, so that's ok, we can all sleep easy

I hope it sells well so they can offer some DLC or better yet, sequels!

Apart from Elite: Dangerous (out tomorrow!!!), this is my most anticipated game as well. That gif you posted is amazing Can't wait for a Captain Toad amiibo

The game seems to be a reskinned, HD version of TP and SS. I'm getting a little bored of that engine to be honest, especially having played Wind Waker HD which was so much more fluid.

Oh yeah, an even better indicator of the modernisation, the lasers and futuristic arrows in Zelda U's trailer! Add that to the recent list then.
