Next-gen comes.....so what? All next gen negativity here please

Yeah but it's only Super Mario 3D Land with 4-player anyway.

[Pikate]

Yeah well that's what I'm hoping. Drive the price down. They are still selling Basics for ?190 the bastards. I've got a mad crave on for Mario.

Really? My basic Wii U was ?170 from CEX way back in March, apparently they were offering more than RRP at launch and got landed with loads of brand new, unopened consoles...

Shopto sell the Premium for ?199 via play.com now and again.

Otherwise this is about the best deal about at the moment, Premium with Mario & Luigi games and the new Marvel one for ?249 (special offer number three)

Yeah the early part of this year and the summer were definitely the cheapest point to get a Wii U. Now you're f*cked unless you want a load of Lego games and crap accessories. Ah well.

I really want a Basic one too. I much prefer it in white.

Hopefully one will pop up soon.

Not got a local Blockbuster near you? they must be selling them off cheap (stock permitting).

[J0e Musashi]

Jaja.

I want this. But I don't really want to drop 3 hunna, more around ~?200 - ?220 including SM3DW. I don't want any other games as I can borrow NSMBU and Pikmin 3 off a mate.

No Blockbusters particularly near me sadly. Not any more anyway.

J0e I'm gonna start calling you Jaja Binks.

[J0e Musashi]

I'll start calling you Dick.

What on earth happened to this thread.

[wakka]

It got ridiculously dramatic and then we just had to break it down and have a freestyle chill out session.

[speedlolita]

Well, okay.

I think my Famitsu Game Boy Light would fit Pikate's room nicely. Delicious white bezel. Om nom nom.
