It isn't but game prices have gotten more accurate along the years.
yeah... I still have to pay 70€ for AAA releases, instead of 60$ and 400€ on launch PS4, instead of 400$.
Granted I don't have to pay taxes like the Americans do (since the Taxes are already inside the price) but I still have to pay more than Americans on average. Importing some games from Canada is legit cheaper than buying it in a local store on launch.

Portugal, Spain, France and UK typically have better pricing whereas Germany charges more than it should. Same goes for Australia.

I got a newsletter earlier, it was nothing new, just the same bollocks we already know about, adverts for the latest 'games'. If this Minecraft announcement really was it, then all I can say is that Nintendo and I have very different views on what does and does not constitute 'news'.

The Nintendo newsletter I received contains games out now for 3DS and Wii U. I'd dare to bet that the "big" announcement was unfortunately Minecraft. :(

An indie guy said on a podcast that there would be big news today.
Minecraft for Wii U is a big thing for an indie guy.

If it would've been bigger, it would've been communicated through more official channels.

Oh, and I believe that most of the peeps here who say "what's fun about minecraft" or "it's a pile of shit" are just pretending to be too cool for something popular.

Except it's a genuine opinion? I personally cannot stand Minecraft, it's boring to me and seems really quite pointless. It's a disappointment that this was the announcement.

It's not about being "edgy" or "cool" but simply how people feel about it. Really, it's no big deal that Minecraft's on Wii U, because it's just yet another platform it's available on.

    I hate ordering stuff online if I can go buy it somewhere close to me, and everywhere anymore will give you a discount only if you order it online, bs. Should be a discount if I go pick it up, not order online.

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.

    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.
