When I heard that Ashley was interested this was the first thing I thought he'd do.

It'll be great if they all merge then it's only one shop we need to avoid.

Imagine his version of HMV, fast and furious dvds, a wall of funkos, FIFA and COD only in the game section and prams, thousands of prams, a dress code of grey jogging bottoms and only one type of bag, a massive branded bag.

I'm sure it'll be a huge success, just look at how the British high street is booming and it's not like there is anything happening in the next few months that could slow down the economy.

And don't forget the giant mug you'll get free with your purchase.

After Christmas I popped into game in Newcastle, they had one of the Spyro totaku figure (it's like the Nintendo line but less classy) anyway, it comes packaged like action figures do. Piece of card, vacuum packed plastic over it.

However.... They had took this carded toy (12 quid or so normally) placed it in a box..... So it looks bigger... And upped the price.

Found a pic on Google.

No words

I wondered why some Totaku figures were in bigger boxes, is that a GAME thing then?

The ones in my local GAME were £10 like all the others, just to add.

I've got a boxed version like that for Lara Croft and Agent 47 and they're the same price as the normal Totaku.

But when it comes to prices, each Game store differs a lot.
I remember when I had two Games in my local town and both had hugely different prices on stuff, told the manager about it and he said it was due to supply and demand or some crap like that.

Was 12 for the Spyro one in my local game. It had been marked down to 8 (normal box) for weeks before. I was tempted when it was 8 as I love Spyro's design, but the face looked a bit weird.

Thought I'd pick up Resi 2 after a disappointing day at the Trafford Centre...

£44.99 :fp:

Everywhere else is selling for £39.99, unfortunately no retail presence. WHS only had Spider-Man and Curry's only had FIFA 19 in.

Do GAME not accept Wii U games for trade in any more? When I go onto the site, access the trade in part and try searching Wii U nothing comes up?

Doesn't look like it, the Nintendo section in my local GAME is entirely Switch and 3DS now.

There was a chav couple in there last time arguing about how they don't have DS games :lol:

You can't really put a price on ultimate gaming, 'Milner.

But, yeah, GAME have stopped taking in 360, PS3 and Wii U games.

Try CEX, I can't account for Wii U but my local has a sizeable PS3 and 360 section.

There were no Wii U gaems. Milner's imagination has run wild.
