Ramagamma Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Between that, calling people cucks and throwing the triggered term about just suggests you have really strong opinions on Anita Sarkeesian. Other than having watched a handful of feminist frequency videos on YouTube, no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunglebonce Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 As someone who hadn't played Splatoon before, the test fire demo is pretty neat. The servers are only up for limited slots over this weekend. It's enough of a taster to make me keen to buy the release when it's out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knee jerk reaction Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Got mario kart but haven't had more than a couple of goes so far as i'm still plodding through zelda. My boy likes it, having completed the story in zelda he was needing something else and mario kart is fine, no control issues and a good game. You know what you're getting if you've played previous mario kart games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramagamma Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 You know what you're getting if you've played previous mario kart games. The exact same game you've played for 23 years? -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Anyone any clue where the best place to get one of these is now? Argos seems like the cheapest, apart from ebay, but I'm loathe to buy a pre-owned one as it's being bought as a gift. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only seen them at £279 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Seems to be £279 across the board. Personally wouldn't order one online, especially from Argos. Have seen it first hand, people's deliveries going 'missing' and the Yodel drivers changing their story 5 times over and not returning to the address, leaving the customer without an item and nearly £300 down. I just went into game and bought my brothers one for his birthday, got the last one in the shop actually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont order from anyone who uses Yodel then Amazon generally use DPD for high ticket items and they are superb. I use amazon next day delivery all the time Its not really possible for the customer to be without an item and out of pocket. Its the sellers responsibility to make sure the goods are delivered. If they're not you're perfectly entitled to another one or a refund. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely but another problem is the driver was saying he delivered it and someone signed for it. Then he said he left it in a bin, then left it with a neighbour. Total bullshit, I was going crazy about it in work, wasn't my department but everyone myself included was saying give them a refund ect because it ran out of stock. Yodel kept hanging up on the agents trying to get them to investigate it ect. Was going on for weeks. Don't know how it ended up i'll need to find out. I'd have went to the police personally, blatant theft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not always but more and more online retailers are making it more obvious who they use, and if you order regularly from the same place you'll have a pretty good idea - as I said, amazon prime use DPD mainly and sometimes Royal Mail. Oh, I get that it can be a major pain in the ass if you're having to deal with some of the nonsense the couriers get up to ... but then it was your company that chose Yodal, so no sympathy really Thank god I dont have to deal with any of that anymore. The worst I came across, in a previous job, was one courier driver who decided to throw the parcel over the fence into the garden because he heard dogs barking and didnt want to go in. Of course the dogs he heard ripped the parcel, of clothes, to shreds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Got a second hand one, neon. With a carry case, docking station, controller, Zelda and Mario Kart 8, for £350 all in. Happy enough with that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerSaint Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Can't wait until Mario comes out so I can get this. Good few games available now which was the reason I've held off buying it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebonce Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 Mario + Rabbids is out on Tuesday. Ubisoft's take on XCOM with Nintendo and Rabbid characters. I'm hyped. Currently playing through Sonic Mania, purchased for 699 rubles on the Russian eShop i.e. about six quid cheaper than the UK one. It's a doddle to change region on a web browser before going into the device's eshop to purchase. It saved me a tenner on Splatoon 2 as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
