cheapest retail Ive found is 41 euro for Tropical Freeze, so this was a bargain.
Same, the thing is when it comes to NES, SNES, and GBA games, I don't want to pay £4, £5 or £6 for them, because I can get PS1 games on PSN for better than those prices, often when they're not even on sale
I wish they'd just put all the VC games on sale, even just 40% off, just for one day, I'd end up spending loads, whereas I doubt I'll spend a single penny on the eShop over the next few days if this is all they can be arsed to do
When you buy a Nintendo system you do need to accept you'll be spending a lot more on games than you would for any other system, but at least throw us a bone digitally.
£5 for a 50hz PAL SNES ROM they have arbitrarily made dimmer than the original cart and then dumped onto the eShop is borderline insulting

Lol that you can find some of this games cheaper on physical on a mediamarkt.
NoE is doing great, but sales are not their strong point.

Didn't you get this "bargain app" last year on 3DS, where lots of games (even new and third party ones) were offered for really great prices? I was really jealous and still am tbh.

And the euro matters more than both of these combined. Sorry, not sorry.
Yeah, no. Euro matters the most since its the official currency in the most EU countries.
Don't expect you to research them, they do come up itt.
Fine, it was just a suggestion.

Not all of them, and with a delay.
It's not like there are pages of these deals to be browsed anyway. If you can't check them, you can't buy them either. I'm simply not doing this. If moderators feel offended on behalf of UK they can edit the OP themselves.

You seem offended that people want the £ prices.

The problem is, that Code Name STEAM was sold for just £5 this week on amazon. It would have been a great price, if it didn't sold so badly, that you can get it for bargain bin prices everywhere.
I already own the Kirby games and I have no desire to get Game & Wario ever. So... it's Day 3 and they still didn't sell me anything (I already own most of the reduced games to be fair).

Updated OP. Thanks, you two.
Maybe we all will figure out a simple method of grabbing multiple prices from eShop for the next sale. Right now, I am too tired to manage that all.

What are the chances of Smash being on sale tomorrow? Pretty slim I guess.
This will be remembered as the shittiest sales of recent years, even for the usual (pricey) Nintendo standards.
Good job, Nintendo. I checked the shop constantly these 2 days
I don't expect incredible discounts and offers but at least a good selection of N. games under the barrier of 20 but... No, I've expected too much.
I've just bought 6 Japanese games on Steam with 29.99 totally and now I'm super happy.
This is the digital service that deserve my money for the Black Friday weekend.

These deals are joke.

Yep no third party (once again a problem of America and Europe not communicating), no non-retail resulting is half as many deals and the whole affair is drawn out by "24 hours only" gimmicks (which actually has lost them at least one Super Mario 3D World sale).

I find the lack of third-party disturbing. But picked up Codename STEAM, because I want it digitally.

I bought Nes Remix, please don't judge me.
Don't count on it. I still remember NoE's E3 sale from last (?) year. Didn't hold a candle to NoA's one, which didn't exactly set the world on fire as well.
NoE is much better at giving games away for free to loyal customers, though. Maybe there will be some kind of give-away to people who switched to the new 3DS model early, again. It's probably already a little late for that, though. Maybe next year after their new loyalty program has started.
Yeah it was more of a token statement than any real belief
Thinking at least third parties will have some good sales though. These deals do make me wonder what the new reward program will actually be like... Play 1000 hours for £1 off? edit: also guess one of the issues here is the digital starting price so many months from release.
Which version of Xenoblade would you recommend? I know the Wii version is prettier, but I heard they improved some things in the 3DS game. Quest Management? I don't remember exactly.
Yes, it will still work.^^

Bought!
There aren't any actual gameplay improvements I think.
I played the 3DS version and that one played perfectly fine. Aside from some slowdowns in battles but you also get those in the Wii version.
It's just a matter if you prefer to play this on a console or a handheld.
