Dillon's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger (eShop)
Gentleben replied to Retro_Link's topic in Nintendo Gaming
I really wanted to play the first game, but lack of left handed friendly controls and high price really put me off. Unless this game fixes some of those issues it will be another 'no thanks' from me. -
Successful trip for the Manchester Streetpass meet today. Got all the pink pieces on the newest Kirby puzzle, and only need 15 more pieces to fully complete every puzzle.

I've decided I'm going to the Streetpass Meetup next Satuday in Manchester. It's easily done as a day trip from Birmingham on the coach, and free to me. Hopefully will be enough people attending to finish my last puzzle. If anyone else wants to attend here's the link: http://www.facebook.com/events/list#!/events/554232747943823/

New stuff added. Paper Mario Sticker star Note pads. Looks like there are 3 sets and each set comes with 3 (memo type size note paper) Each set is 1,000 stars.

Just on the final boss of my 8th play of Streetpass quest 2 (secret quest) I should have all the hats by the time I finish my 10th play. Slow progress.. Also need about 30 pieces to complete finish all the current puzzles. If anyone needs pink pieces I have em all (bar a few on the new Kirby puzzle.)

Since there is a topic about this and I've been looking for a new series to get hooked on, I purchased two boxsets today. Fringe Season 1 and 2 on Blu Ray (£30) I hope I won't be disappointed.
-
New items added: x3 Coloured Yoshi Cleaning cloths. Each 1500 stars. Yellow, pink and Green. Take your pick!
-
Yeah it's one of those games that doesn't seem to drop in value.
-
Hmm, my first thought is that your stars expired, but if you entered them all in the last month or so this shouldn't have happened. My advice is to contact codestorm hq and query it with them.
-
Hmm there is one game I never got around to playing on the Wii, Kirby Adventure: Return to Dreamland. If you have this I'd consider a temp trade. Maybe we could each hold on to each other games for a month then trade back- that way we could both experience the games we want too. Assuming you have the Kirby game I'm looking for.

Really not feeling this game, would anyone like to consider a swap for another Wii U title? Apart fom Mario or Nintendoland. (already got those)
-
Ordered some coloured Wiimote straps for the catalogue before Christmas, and they have arrived today. Also registered x4 sets of points, think I'II register as I earn instead of stockpiling codes next time. The Survey is really annoying.

Got all 5 stars on my file early hours of this morning, now I can move onto either Zombi U or Paper Mario Sticker Star on the 3DS. Was a fun game, some tricky parts in the later levels and some of the challenges are evil. More please

My local cinema is the Cineworld @ Broad street in Birmingham. I've got an Unlimited card, and since I've been a member more than 1 year I've just been upgraded to their new Premium Unlimited membership. Now I don't pay any uplift fee for 3D movies (used to be £1.50) and I get 25%off food and drink. However IMAX movies still carry a shocking uplift fee of £4.00! I also live directly opposite the Odeon @ Broadway Plaza in Birmingham. I've got 3 free tickets from earlier this year. They chose to replace the AMC sign with an Odeon sign across 2 nights (1am-3am) in the early hours of the morning, caused a right racket so I complained. I won't be using them since I prefer the Cineworld, so because I'm feeling a little festive I'm going to give 1 away. If anyone wants it, post a reply with a justified reason why and I'II drop it in the post.

There was no error code displayed and also the write protection look was not enabled. We have also tried 2 different types of SD card brand and nothing working. Beginning to wonder if it is the SD card drive that is not working... anymore ideas anyone?

I had no problems doing my transfer across, but I've just spent the best part of this evening trying to help a friend via facetime who was stuggling. He has downloaded both Transfer tools and starts off on the Wii U putting in an SD card when prompted to prepare for use on the Wii. Everytime it just skips to the next step without preparing the card or connecting to the Internet. Anyone got any ideas why?

# Where was everyone else in that video? and why do I link snow with being lonely?

Congrats on the catch.

You've Got your Wii U - Talk about it/Show it off here
Gentleben replied to Mokong's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Here's a portion of the email I sent Blockbuster, which relates to what happened when collecting our Wii U from their Erdington store on Friday afternoon with my friend. The Complaint! Back when the Wii U was first avaiable to preorder at Blockbuster my friend and me visited your Erdington Store Ref 60002. You had a deal which included a Black 32GB wii U Zombi U (bundle) + Nintendo land for only £329.99. It was the best deal across all the high street shops and we both placed preorders. Since the deal seemed so amazing we confirmed with staff on a number of occasions during repeat visits both games were included- and we were ALWAYS told yes. Skip to yesterday and we both go to collect our bundle and it's a different story. We were then told that the Nintendo land did not come with the Zombie U bundle, and it was only when we wouldn't back down that the Manager Rodger found the poster/paperwork which was displayed in your story that explained this. He clearly had NO IDEA about this deal, since he said to his assistant Manager 'who made up this poster'- or words to that effect. He then offered us 3 options 1) A refund 2) The Nintendoland game for an EXTRA £20 3)To remove the Pro Controller from the Bundle. We were both frustrated and annoyed and I said the Pro Controller is part of the bundle, why would you remove it? his counter point was the Pro Controller was not included on the poster which had been displayed in the store during the preorder period. He went away and spoke to His District Manager Paul outside of our ear shot- (likely putting his own spin on own story) and returned to say Paul had agreed with his 3 options. I said I would be complaining, and while Rodger was sorry and did apologise we were both being CHEATED out of the deal. I requested he remove MY pro controller from THE BUNDLE and my friend Warren paid the extra £20. We left the store and grabbed a bite to eat and both phoned Customer services, but it was an answering machine. I rang back the store and spoke to Simon the assistant Manager, asking for Paul Digmans number but it was refused to me THREE TIMES! and they were not even prepared to pass on my number for Paul to ring me back, because he is 'not customer facing' and was 'in a meeting for the rest of the day' also the Manager Rodger had since gone home. All very convinient. I told Simon we would not go away, and continue to complain, and he suggested I leave a message on the customer service line which normally yields a call back within an hour. We both left a voicemail message and headed back to my friends house. While there Simon rang my friends home phone and said he had emailed headoffice- clearly your stores have no problems getting in touch- but us mere customers have to jump a lot of hoops. Simon explained HQ Customer services had agreed to either refund my friends £20 or put it towards a £20 game , which was another deal you were doing for people buying Wii U. He then spoke to me and said I could come and collect my Pro controller when next in the store. -
Completed Unova Dex all seen and owned, now I need to start my National Dex.
-
Seen all Unova dex pokemon, and I'm about 20 away from catching them all. I have to say I think the Oval Charm reward is pretty crap considering eggs are easily given when breeding.

Guess it's a good thing I'm not in London.
