Showing a lack of understanding both RRP and the English language in a single post... Nice one :-P
For the vast majority of products, consumers determine the true value by what they are willing to pay, and that market value is all that matters. Otherwise discounts on RRP offered by retailers such as Sports Direct would be hot deals every day of the week.
"Coz" is an informal abbreviation recognised by the Oxford dictionary. "Cause" as you like to put it, is the wrong word, and makes no sense. It does however, "cause" you to come across a little hypocritical.
While I still disagree with you on RRP and the rip off merchants charging double the actual worth of this item solely due to a low supply I will humbly stand corrected on my use of the English language.
May wanna put a stock alert under 'misc' as there is no deal here.
Selling eBay on double price is a great deal mate !!!
It's RRP and a stock alert. Cause idiots are buying something on ebay at twice the price or cause CEX etc are trying to rip people off with inflated prices does not make RRP a deal. Sorry.
yes it does coz this is half its market value. literally half the price of any other avenue to purchase it.
Cheers, Smyths, now I've got your £50 pending stuck on my card until it's over with.
Stopped reading at "coz"
I totally agree about the rip-off merchants doubling the price, no question. But, I think that's slightly different, and soemthing like this can be a good deal at the same time. I paid £55 plus delivery for one of these, and was quite happy with that.
Or, maybe the majority of comments that come accross that way to some, were actually meant tongue in cheek or in a manner of jest. IDK ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They keep saying this since Christmas, can't trust them anymore
Emulation on these is about the best you'll get, it's very good
The emulation is excellent. The controller (designed as more of an add on for the Wii imo) and reset button can be a bit annoying to use though. I really wish it had a Bluetooth controller option built in - 3rd party ones with their dongle really ruin the aesthetics. Looks brilliant, and that encourages you to play it. Great community mods and hacks, which can only get better as availability improves (if it ever does).

Cock
nearest store says in stock between 26-29th but wont let me reserve one
is it easy and what games can you get?
You can essentially double the amount of games on it (as things stand). No one is entirely sure how much storage there is in them as it's not as simple as just connecting it to a PC and using it as a flash drive.
60 games is the vast majority of the best games on the system so is plenty. A quick Google will tell you all you need to know.
Is it lol? Just checked and it's oos
gone quick i did manage to get an order in fingers crossed
It will depend on whether you're already into classic Nintendo games. Most of them are difficult and frustrating and some of them people will have played to death over the years.
I bought this to allow me to sell my Nintendo collection, which is gathering dust on my shelf as the NES is temperamental, as are the games. It also allows me to play games which I can't be bothered to shell out massive money for just to play for an hour and finish.
Whether you come back to it will depend on a number of pre-existing factors. Do you like retro games? Have you any fondness for the titles that come pre-packaged? Do you like tough but short games?
Worth remembering that these games would cost £150 on Virtual Console alone (already ignoring Rasberry Pi crowd).
