Price is silly

not the mention the fact that a lot of people over the age of 10 have a nintendo console as their 2nd one. So on top of paying for Xbox Live or PSN you now have to pay for Nintendos online service as well which will probably annoy all that and then they just end up endlessly releasing shovelware titles like what happened to the Wii

My thoughts almost exactly Jon, the online service apparently only offers a free NES or SNES game for the month too... I wonder if they'll price it accordingly next to Live and PS+?

The way they've been going I won't be surprised if they charge more than those services - everything else seems to be 1up on price

Yikes!!!

Saw that Jon. Boggles the mind it really does. Is Nintendo aware it's 2017?

YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!!

i used to sink SO MUCH TIME into MicroMachine games!!

 

[RedAlix]

So is Battlefield 1 worth the price ? (currently on Amazon for £42.95)

 

[Jon]

Yes but I wouldn't pay anywhere near that price

What platform are you wanting to play it on?

PS4

I can't seem to find it anywhere cheaper than that.

 

[Jon]

Plenty on eBay ending around £30

 

[RedAlix]

Not sure I trust ebay, knowing me I'd end up with a scratched disc that won't play!

I have looked in CEX and Game second hand but they were both over £40!

 

[Chammy]

Shame it's not Xbone you're looking for - my January competition is a copy of it

I'm sure you wouldn't but even if you did you would just raise a PayPal dispute and get your money back

So, we bought a Switch yesterday after saying we weren't going to. AND Zelda: Breath of the Wild limited addition.

I lost somewhere between 2-3 hours last night on it ;D ;D ;D ;D

and now you have 2...

I am still wanting to try Playstation VR. Even if I don't buy the thing I just want to experience it and see what it's like in person...

I'm old enough to remember those days in the 90s when they thought it was going to be a massive thing and the only solution was those giant helmets they wanted you to wear!

I bought a Wii, twice! I'm not falling for Nintendo and their fancy marketing!

Still waiting for a reasonable PSVR kit. I could be waiting a long time.
