The Switch was on special at some places in Australia yesterday so thought it was time to finally grab one.

Yes. My PSP & Talkie Toaster did as well.

Suicide Guy (free as alternative to another to a giveaway that was too popular, this game costs more than the one they run out of keys for)

Sunset overdrive (day one edition) $5
Dead rising 3 (day one edition) $12

I was In JB buying some other stuff (will get to that in proper thread) and figured since they were cutting me a deal I'd grab them cheap as well.

EB $50 Box of Fun

SNES Game Box Shaped Cork Coasters

Thought about getting Auto Modellista for a while but the cheapest copy in box on ebay is $20. Went to Cash Converters yesterday and found it in a big pile of games for $2 in box.

I was going to get the $20 Box of Fun/Crap, searched for reviews of it and found this weird video where the guy got some pretty good stuff, so went for the $50 to see if I can get even better stuff. Hopefully they don't put in any t-shirts or socks.

I got some of them too. when I got the bunch of merchandise. I also grabbed 6 of the SNES cups for $2 each. :osmile:
I am concerned that after 2 drinks the coasters will fall apart so I'm not inclined to use them as much as the playstation ones I bought (They were $25 though so you'd hope they'd be good, which they are)
Wipeout coaster is at work, Gran turismo is on my desk at home that I can't reach. other 2 are still in the packet.

I got some of the coasters a couple of months ago but they are only $2 now, so got some more.

And The Wonderful 101 along with Tales From The Abyss & Ever Oasis were in the EB 1/2 price sale, which was good. 3 more ticked off my want list.

Pokken Tournament (Wii U)

Target in Australia are dumping most of their Wii U games for $5 each. Lots of people are getting Zelda, Mario Maker, Splatoon etc. for dirt cheap. Unfortunately my local Target only had 3 copies of Just Dance and 2 of Pokken Tournament. Still, Pokken for $5 is pretty good.

That's a sweet deal, I think Pokken Tournament is still pretty expensive in the UK. I almost got my hands on a super cheap copy of Lego City from "Toys We're Us", but when I got to the counter they couldn't find any. Grrrrr!

Apart from that I'm patiently waIting for Colour Splash to drop in price, it's still £30 at most places.

That sucks. I'm waiting for that one to go cheap too, although for the Switch.

Damn. Pity my Target is granny central, it doesn't have much of a games section.

2 gears of war 4 Xbox one pads and next day shipping for $95. One normal pad for $80-90 or 2 for $95 seemed ok

PlayStation 4 pro
Ps vr
Gran turismo sport
The last guardian
Wipeout (again)

While gt sport updated I took out of my room and the shed:
Saturn
Dreamcast
gamecube
Snes mini

I had time to set each one up and play:
An 80 lap race on three rings speedway on Daytona Saturn
A full run of crazy taxi arcade (and finish the crazy box) on GameCube
5 fights in arcade mode of soul calibur on Dreamcast
The first 5 levels of yoshis island on the snes mini.

I then had time to re box up each console, and put them all away.
And it made me think, what’s the fucking point of console gaming.

It used to have a point: disc or cartridge in, play game, enjoy.

It’s been about 8 hours now so I am sure something else will need a fucking update
