Re: Switch Online N64 Controllers Are Back In Stock Now

@Skunkfish I presumed you saw the reply from dartmonkey at 5:21pm "Skunkfish So it is! I've just added that to the post - thanks. "

So you should understand?

Like I said I noticed it in stock around a week or 2 ago (meaning the stock was not being scalped, likely as it hadn't been picked up on and reported on). I decided best not to share it in anyway, why perpetuate the problem

@Skunkfish well done πŸ˜’ they've been in stock on UK store for at least the past week or 2. Anyone who wanted to look to buy could have. Now thanks to your comment they will likely be scalped for profit once again the same as every time before. Food for thought

Re: Atlus Relaxes Persona 5 Royal's Strict Streaming Guidelines

Justin.tv was all movies and TV show streaming, obviously that wasn't ok, they then went to video games only and renamed to Twitch.tv, but how is that not still sharing something which a company has produced to sell to people ?

Sure, could be argued that video games are all about playing it yourself, but they also include a story, cinematic cutscenes, music ...

I'm surprised video game companies allow streaming of their products at all.

Re: Random: Some Fans Think They've Spotted A 'Mario Kart 10' Teaser In The Mario Movie

Maybe we need to take the numbers and rearrange them. 221203. So how about making 2023, which leaves 2 and 1, so could be 12. So December 2023. Which is when the last Booster Course Wave is due isn't it ?

Or they could need to be rearranged some other way. 221203. Taking out 23 for the year leaves 2210, Could possibly be 10 for October leaving 22 for the day, or 12 for December leaving 20 or 02 for the day Exciting!

Re: Glow-In-The-Dark Zelda: TOTK Keychain Now Available Via My Nintendo Rewards

@SlimPieEats So the description "Material: Zinc Alloy. Plating: Black Nickel" is just describing the keyring and little chain?? That is disgraceful

No it can't be ? It says Black Nickel. - How the hell can a silver ring/chain be Black Nickel ???

Update: Ok so it turns out in UK this is made of metal ! So I don't know if @SlimPieEats is in a different country/region ? (there must be a metal version and also a rubber version of this)

Re: Deals: Get A Discount On Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom's Digital Edition

jco83

@NintendoLife It doesn't seem like you are "busy keeping track of all the best deals at retail" for a start you haven't even listed the Currys game + luggage tag for Β£47.99 deal or that it's available from Smyths for Β£49.99, and other prices you have listed have changed price (Hit is now Β£49.85, Amazon game + Poster is now priced Β£54.49), one of which now leads to a dead link (TheGameCollection now relisted at Β£54.95 but does [and previously did] come with Poster)

Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Nintendo Treehouse Livestream Announced

jco83

Well at the time this starts the game will have already released 2 hours and 45 minutes ago in the UK. And obviously even earlier the more eastward the timezone.

AFAICT the farthest ahead timezone in the Nintendo account country list is New Zealand with Time zone (UTC+12:45) Pacific/Chatham.

So this should allow the digital game to be played earliest

Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom amiibo Goes Live On Amazon UK, Pre-Order Now

jco83

Shame NL never reported availability from Nintendo Store UK at just Β£12.99 with free delivery Β―\_ (ツ)_/Β―

I ordered on the 13th which was when it became available for anyone to order, after initially only being available for people who had previously "registered their interest" when that was a option.

I don't know whether it is still available now as it has a lifetime limit of 1 per customer so appears unavailable to anyone who has already ordered.

@hylianticipated Also - that Β£29.99 crossed-out price is BS. The RRP is Β£21.99. #Scamazon

Did you see how much they were charging for the TotK Amiibo ? ~Β£30 πŸ€‘ Do you think they will make it available again at a lower/reasonable price before release so the people who already ordered will pay that lower price ("Pre-Order Price Guarantee") ? Of course not 🀑 #Scamazon
