Man, you could get these for like €25 from nippon-yasan a couple of years ago. Should've ordered a ton more, lol...

Yeah.... I know. :(
Same with the Wii Plus controllers. They were dumping them for 16€ a pop once.
Bought a handful of them, but I somehow wish I got a couple more.

Not like the 40 or so Dreamcast controllers and VMU's that I still have boxed, but still. ;)

Yeah I regret not getting one from there. When I was going to they only had white in stock so I waited and then they put the prices up.

Ended up paying like 30 quid on amazon.

Well, when I came across a deal nearly 10 years ago of someone selling new VMU's for not even 2€ a pop and new official packaged Dreamcast controllers for 3€ a pop, I wasn't going to pass it up.
Bought them so I would be set for a lifetime.
System is still hooked up to a 65" plasma through a Framemaister, as is my Saturn, so it's not like they are all boxed up waiting for the prices to keep on rising so I can sell them for huge profits.

Guys, I think now you can really get the wii u pro controller for 36€ on amazon.de. :D I just checked on my phone and now the product page just shows the price and you can put it in the basket.

Yep, that worked. Thanks!

Time to hoard a bunch of these!

Yeah it's really weird. Grabbed one and now it's gone again on my end as well.

Shipping notice states that it should arrive 19-20 January.

If you really want one, I'd try to refresh the page now and again. You might get lucky. :-/

My local Grainger (Derby) are doing World of Final Fantasy PS4 for £30 as deal of the week. Seems to be £34.99 online though.
Cheapest I've seen it yet.

I'm wondering this myself but for the price it can't be that broken, plus I don't own a PS3 and my PC can barely run Infinite.

I own all three games on the 360, but havent played any of them lol. So guess it might be better not knowing and not end up wasting more money on this.

Is there anything I can spend Tesco mobile credit on? Found an old phone with like £8 credit on, tried to use it on PSN wallet but Tesco mobile isn't supported. :(

Would be a shame to let this £8 go to waste.

Try calling their customer support? At the very least they might let you convert it to store credit.

It's not an amazing remaster, but it's very far from being trash. Lots of improvements, a few niggling. (Talking about consoles here.)

Ok, but is it considered better than the 360-version? Decent framerate and such?

Retro Link, too?
Not today, and I wouldn't count on it. There were similar unlisted flash sales on Ness and Captain Falcon on the first and second of this month. Diddy and Ness have already been in the lower price spectrum (Diddy after Christmas had gone as low as ~7,5€), and Falcon is slightly above it. So that seems to be the pattern.

If anyone used eBay but haven't used it in a while check your emails, I had a £20 gift voucher to make me come back. The only condition was to spend £25.

"What could you buy with an extra £20"

Valid until the 12th January

I found a copy of Dishonored 2 on the PS4 for £25 and used the voucher to get it for £5

What is up with this Windows store piece of shit. Why does Horizon 3 not appear in my library. I have to go the games store page by search to install it or play it.
 
Probably would've jumped on that and upgraded to anniversary edition to play it. Oh well, I'm sure it'll be cheap again given the store it is on.

Can't you just pin it to the start menu or task bar?

Very happy to hear this! Probably picking it up then :)
Cool! Be aware that there is a (minor) save game issue: people have reported that the game limits the number of saves to ten for both Bioshock 1 and 2 combined. If you reach 10, you can't create a new save, and need to exit the game to delete a save.

It's not a big deal, but just FYI.

Right, thanks a lot for the information!
