  1. What are ya sellin'? [/merchant]
  2. I wouldn't say early, unless they got their dev kits 6months ago and news is just starting to trickle through. It takes 2 years to make a game for these current consoles, ones that are designed for the console at least and not ports, which is exactly what Nintendo no not need showcase their console with.
  3. They vary, the majority are £10+
  4. I haven't bought any Amiibo yet, but sods law that one of the two Amiibo I'm interested in (Kirby), isn't on their site.
  5. I don't unfortunately (kinda miss Kirby's Dream Land 2 and Wario Land), Like you I've sold games in the past to buy other games, or because I've needed the money. But nostalgia is really kicking in and I'm going to start celebrating and buying back a few games that were special to me. Pokémon Red is a game I'd never part with however. I'm wondering whether I look into sprucing up my GameBoy a little bit... with a new screen, and trying to un-yellow it. But there's also something to be said for celebrating your things in used condition.
  6. @dazzybee, but it's so ugly! Amiibo, Buy One Get One Free at Tesco: http://www.tesco.com/direct/search-results/results.page?catId=4294967294&searchquery=amiibo&SrchId=4294967294&sc_cmp=aff*nt*gmo*HotUKDeals_1018132&utm_medium=gmo&utm_source=tradedoubler&utm_campaign=aff*HotUKDeals_1018132
  7. Decided I'm going to start getting a few things out on display rather than stored away. Starting with my Gameboy and one of the most important games to me...
  8. I just don't even get how that came about... Push, yes... Shoulder barge, yes... Kick, yes... but who the fuck thinks 'I'll put a punch animation in' when faced with a boulder scenario?? :p The dude's not even wearing fingered gloves.
  9. EA has always been largely absent from my games collection too, but they did make one absolute beast!... Mirror's Edge Catalyst will be my first EA game in a LONG time. Grand Slam Tennis may have been the last!
  10. In. I think it's crazy to isolate ourselves. Also I don't want to live in a world with the views of Boris Johnson and Donald Trump at the forefront.
  11. Resi 5 along with Gears of War are the best co-op games out there; me and @Eddage had great times with them. My problem with Resi 5 is with it being a Resident Evil game. It takes place during the day, unlike 4 is never scary, has forgettable boss fights that aren't a patch on RE4, and I don't find it a satisfying conclusion to the Resident Evil/Wesker story, or those characters. When you look at how the characters were last portrayed in Code Veronica, Chris and Wesker are disappointing. I really don't like what they did with Jill in the game. Resident Evil 4 is a standalone side story, and actually I think it would be enjoyable to have other similar games that follow key characters on other missions. A bit like how the Marvel characters do their own thing and then assemble for The Avengers. The Dying Light character actor sounds a lot like Chris Redfield (if in fact it isn't), and it's kinda fun to think of that as being Chris on a solo mission.
  12. I have not felt the need to buy a Wii U, and yet before that I'd been quick to snap up any Nintendo console... bought the N64, Gamecube, Wii, Gameboy, GBC, DS original, DS, 3DS. For me it's the way Nintendo are using their franchises at the moment. Whilst some are being flat out ignored (and I've stated my disappointment on this numerous times), others I feel are being/beginning to feel cheapened. Over the generations Paper Mario should have evolved into something like Tearaway by now, but it's barely changed. StarFox should now be something more akin to Strike Vector EX, but it's still very much the same game. Mario Tennis, Golf, Party, instead of being refined are becoming gimmicky messes. I appreciate that Mario comes out each generation and tries something new (even if I wasn't a fan of the latest attempt, or chubby art style), and whilst I was one of the few who loved Skyward Sword, it's great to see the next Zelda going all out.
  13. Don't pretend as though 'points scoring' doesn't take place on here.
  14. Oh ok... ignore then.
  15. Just an idea @Hero\-of\-Time... Worth buying a Mint Smash Bros box? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/N64-SUPER-SMASH-BROS-BOX-ONLY-PAL-NEW-NO-GAME-NO-MANUAL-OEM/172076324611?_trksid=p2045573.c100034.m2102&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140107092241%26meid%3Dda19fc31a9424a26a01b896637cd2938%26pid%3D100034%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D301872954619, and buy the rest separately?
  16. I was tempted by Mickey's Speedway in the past and I think I almost looked into getting it a while back, hence watching some YouTube videos, where I soon learnt that the look of it was better than the delivery. Considering both were made by Rare it's not a patch on Diddy Kong Racing!! Maybe they were purposefully trying to go for something different, but the tracks are super wide and backdrops not great. Strange racer. But the boxart is awesome!
  17. I didn't want to click that video because quite frankly I didn't want to give him another view. When I did click it, I managed 20 seconds. --- At least there's this...
  18. Does anyone know where I can buy the Michael Cho run of variant covers for Marvel comics? There are a few on ebay but they're being sold with high postage. Haven't seen them show up on Forbidden Planet. Cheers for any info/sites/help/best ebay sellers.
  19. Woah I was expecting much higher prices for that condition!
  20. I don't get the Red Bull engine thing either. They're using a Renault engine, but it's a Tag Heuer branded Renault engine... Tag Heuer are solely a watch maker... it's not like Infiniti of the last few years. Someone explain.
  21. *orginal Third Party game.
  22. I would like to ask whether you think the N64 is Black or Charcoal?...
  23. ... oh dear god that Ferrari.
  24. Ronnie O'Sullivan Undoubtedly the greatest snooker player ever... but I think the guy's a tit. Most recent example was just this week when he turned down potting the final black to make 147, because it was 'only worth £10,000' and he didn't deem that worthy. But I'll never forget the years Paul Hunter was fighting for his life with cancer and yet still turning up to tournaments, meanwhile Ronnie was whinging after every match about how unsatisfying he found playing snooker.
