Has anyone seen Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Wii U under £40? Every site I've checked seems to have it £50-60 and with the discontinue of the Wii U I'm worried they will only do a short release of the Wii U edition.
It's going to be short. Amazon UK had it below £40 but they're sold out.
I didnt know they shipped to mainlad EU (thought it was UK only). Great!
Ended up ordering COD Infinite Warfare (played the beta and it wasok online, but I am the wierd guy that plays COD because of the single player lol so I will play it - in one day? - and then try to sell/exchange for The Last Guardian or another game released in the last few months). Also got a DMC Definitive Edition, which I was about to get on PSN (around 13 euros for me, BR store) now but I prefer physical (I can sell it later).
38 euros for both (23 COD, 15 DMC) was awesome, shipping included.
As of Horizon, I will just wait a little bit. I dont think it will flop, but with all last releases droping in price weeks after release, its worth waiting. And I have plenty to play meanwhile...
edit. out of curiosity I checked how much Game is paying for COD here: 30 euros! Hopefuly they wont change that value next week so I can even get a 7 euros profit out of it. this just gets better.
edit 2. and 20 for DMC. I will get horizon on launch if they do pay that much for my games

Is there not a U.S. version of this thread? I was thinking about making one. But because CheapAssGamer is so popular maybe I shouldn't bother.

Just make sure they accept UK versions of games. Not all retailers do, especially since DLC is tied to the version on the disc.I didnt know they shipped to mainlad EU (thought it was UK only). Great!

Usually good US deals get their own thread so I guess people figure it isn't worth having an individual one.

Amazing how Nintendo made its fanbase wait for years and now gonna charge through the nose for it.
Dragon Age: Inquisition GOTY edition PC digital download ONLY £5 AT GAME until Feb 22.
Total no-brainer for me, I was all over that as soon as I saw it on Eurogamer's Jelly Deals.

Thanks, just got it for £3.28 using up some game points. Won't have time to play it until the summer but I doubt it'll be cheaper than that.
Only chance of a price drop is after Scorpio comes out. Sony don't need to since the Slim is selling well and Microsoft haven't played their hand yet.
Also in the event the Switch actually does numbers, they might want to wait for Christmas for the same reason.

I think north americans just follow Wario64 on twitter. Guy is seriously a machine.
Yeah, I wish we had an EU Wario64.

In France we have some twitter accounts (like hamsterjoueur) which posts deals on twitter. It's pretty useful if you set up notifications, that's how I could order FE Fates LE or a NES Mini and score several deals. See if there is someone like that in your country ?
Very unlikely while stock can't keep up with demand. I'd guess after Christmas the price might drop, or maybe a free game bundle.
he is not just posting deals, but also freebies. you see constantly people getting retweeted giving away codes for games....
but yeah, i like this thread, which is also quite solid.
When Gravity Rush 2 released Amazon unfortunately screwed up my pre order and was going to get it to me a week late, so having little time to play it at the time I decided to cancel the order and thought I would grab it when the price dropped a little.
Now I'm looking at picking it up (a new copy as I want to support the game) but I'm looking and everywhere is either the same price as launch or more expensive, should I just bite the bullet on this one if its going to become difficult to get hold of?
I'm in the UK btw.

I'm wondering this too. And are there any other notable PS4 titles worth picking up before they're gone?

If gravity rush remastered is anything to go by either bite the bullet at £40-45 or hold out and buy it digitally when it's on offer.
The bullet has been bitten, thanks.
Edit: it's at £91 on Amazon 0.o
Gravity Rush 2 being completely sold out on Amazon was the warning for me. I ended up buying at £45 also - only other times I've payed that much for a game has been Halo 2 and Final Fantasy VII.
It's possible that Sony will reprint, but the first batch is starting to dissapear.

Or pcgamesupply or cdkeys
Cheers guys! Goodness knows how I missed that.... :/
Cdkeys were out of stock unfortunately, but pcgamesupply is another option as well. Thanks.

I don't think Sony does limited print runs for console games, I'm sure will be able to find it new at generations end still and for a low price. Not that you'll need wait that long.
They probably just undershipped it and things will level out over time. We not even got Platinum Hits line of PS4 yet.

To be fair it was moved back 2 days so it didn't come out the same day as the Switch/Zelda

half a year ago? roughly?
judging from the discussion in the last thread, it happened late September-ish
it's sort of a bummer, they're usually (at least among) the cheapest in the UK
This is complete nonsense. You can easily find a physical copy of gravity rush remastered for 20/25beans right now.

Amazon France has it for 51 EUR
https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B00KX3D43Y/
I know thats not what you are looking for ...
I am lucky I had a preorder at Amazon.de for 49.99 but I cancelled it and changed it to Amazon UK and got it for GBP 39.00
Domestic? Usually 2-3 days for me.

Depends on where you live and whether you ordered from Base (in UK) or BaseCH (in Switzerland).
Usually takes 2-3 days for my orders from them to arrive.

But it was only 30 when it released, dropping just 5 in a year isn't a lot.

Horizon is £43 at TGC, if you have reward points laying around it gets even better. Got it ordered for a lovely £38.
Also Wii U version of Zelda is £45 at SimplyGames which is one of the best deals for ordering this late. Having ordered both this week.
