I hope you responded with a :problem: , a middle finger and a "download this"

:oops:

My local Asda had the same 6 Vita games on the shelves from launch, removed them about 6 months later and now only sells the console (although I doubt it actually sells any). They've a very small 3/DS library and the WiiU stuff's extremely thin on the ground, almost nonexistent - I don't even think they have the console and the majority of what they do sell's just lame 3rd party accessories like rubber grips. The local Morrisons and Tesco have no handheld or WiiU stuff whatsoever and Sainsbury's has a very small selection and no Nintendo at all.

Game still has a bit of everything but it's Game :roll:

What was worse, in game, nintenso had nearly no shelf space, 1 section for wii, DS, 3ds and Wii U. All 3ds, DS and Wii stuff was sorted by spine. They didn't have any Mario games for the Wii U but 4 promo copies of MK8 on show. DK was £40 too.

I think Nintendo are **** in the UK.

Sad times.
Every game I've been in was like this. They didn't even have new vita games that came out. When I asked if the had a certain title I was told "you can download it" :roll:
I was looking for bravely default on 3ds and needless to say it wasn't there

Great! Amazing dynamics and a definite pre-order. Although...

...I was thinking just the same thing. Lighting effects always sacrifice some colour I suppose. Hopefully this was exaggerated by the recording and the LCD's output.

On the other hand, the console market proves that brown and grey is very in. :|

Ignore those other boys Nintendo.

Telly's off now...

An ode to Toad:

Banana skins all on the road, I'm certain it's that bellend Toad

He sent a Boo up in my grill which stole my only feather quill

He knocked me off of Rainbow Road, gawd I hate that **** Toad*

*He's my favourite actually :whoopsie:

Erm... I'll put the telly back on :palm:
