Re: GAME Apparently Ending Physical Trade-Ins From Next Month (UK)

@jump Got a giant score of Xbox games for 99p each from my local one a couple of months ago.

You'd think they were preowned but no, all the day one edition/DLC codes worked for all of them, and there were a lot of em so it couldn't have been pure luck.

I think that'll start to happen more often as the excuses like profits going down from the preowned exit pile up and they decide to either close stores and put them all inside Sports Direct stores, or become even more a toy shop than they already are.

That said while it is sad to see new games no longer sold widely on the high street, I would most certain keep an eye out in-case they just attempt to get rid of stock at crazy low mark downs.

@WiiWareWave Multi region DVD Players are extremely common. Heck, you can look up your player model and chances are there are codes you perform on your remote to make DVD player region free.

Also Germany have quite a few Pokemon blu rays the US doesn't that include the English dub and work on a UK blu ray player.

Re: Analogue's CEO Reckons Not Even Nintendo Could Beat Its New 'N64'

I do wonder if they'll be able to cope with the amount of demand this thing will have.

There's been plenty of ways to play NES/SNES/Mega Drive/handheld games both carts and digitally for decades. The N64, not so much, and its got a big enough nostalgia following.

As much as I'd love one, I'm certain its going to sell out immediately and all restocks following the launch. It's gonna be tricky.

Re: 3DS And Wii U Online Play Ends In "Early April 2024"

@Paddle1 Except people have been already doing that. So many online games of Mario Kart 8 Wii U and Splatoon 1 have cheaters using hacked Wii U.

Plus the fact servers for MK8 Wii U and Splatoon 1 were taken offline for awhile by hackers earlier this year only made the decision much easier for them.
