Animal Crossing Deals & Offers

All amiibo at Argos now £10.99 ready for Smash Ultimate!

I’m not biased toward either of the systems. The fact of the matter is however, the 2DS XL is only manufactured with the better IPS screens. There’s plenty of information available on this if you do your research.

LOL. And the usual 2DS console(s) misinformation starts.... what on earth are you saying man? Your just making stuff up. There are many reasons why a 2DS unit sucks compared to a 3DS XL. I have posted them many time before and could well post them again but I can't be bothered as there is just 2DS bias and nonsense that follows as already evidenced here. Like your 2DS by all means, but don't just make nonsense up and pretend it is better than a 3DS XL.

The 2DS XL all have the better screens, while with the 3DS XL it’s hit or miss which of the 2 different manufacturers screens you get. The only other difference spec wise is the stereoscopic 3D.

Yes, got it a month ago for such price.

They increased the price of things this morning. Shady practice. Code can’t be used on pre orders so waited for the release of a game today, they took it out of pre order and whacked the price up 10%

Thank you

back in stock as of 14:39

Precisely when I'm thinking of playing Will keep that time change tip in mind also (y)

I used to play it on my breaks at work, would change the time settings on the 3DS to evening and rinse the island for valuable bugs to flog. Good times

Wasted my remaining clubcard points, cheers!

Cheers been waiting for these to drop in price

Hell, you could sell the booster pack it comes with for three times what you pay.

Never thought I'd see the day that a 1st party Nintendo LE game would be £1.25 in poundland. They got this one very wrong indeed.

Already posted in a way! Went in friday and its all tat thats left https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/poundland-swindon-town-centre-closing-down-all-stock-must-go-75-off-2935379

Calling it a game is being generous. You literally press 1 button and the "game" plays itself. :D

They had stacks and stacks of these on rollers and loads on shelves

Ordered Mario Maker. Cheers OP! Don't forget 2% topcashback.

Mario Kart 7 is so expensive I can imagine most people would love a Selects Edition <3 Great they have added these three though so heat from me for this price 8)

Well that's too low now ! 3DS Selects RRP has always been £15.99 :)

I have MM on the 3DS & WiiU, i'd happily buy it for the switch if it came out. The lols on this game are great.

Nice deal for Mario maker!!!!! cheers

(angel) Are you thinking of the right game? AC is well known for being a fun and happy game :')

Weird atmosphere, you travel to a strange town and sit in ur spooky poorly lit haunted house

How so? :')

Dark and Disturbing Game as a Child (:I

Shocked theyre adding new leaf to selects, SUCH a good game!

Did this just ship for anyone else? Put an order in back when this was on but didn’t expect to get anything!

Quite a few in my local Poundland (Nottingham) if anyone wants this

Nice profile picture :D

I picked up in Poundland Beckton 2 days ago if anyones local £5.

Only bought it for the amiibo. I'll never touch the game as the Wii U is boxed away now

Zippo Wii U wise in Liverpool.

Game were doing this very deal about a year ago too

Looks terrible but I don't think I'm the target audience. As many people have said, it's probably a decent purchase for those with young kids. A good deal, but maybe not a good game.

True, it may not be for everyone. But, in my house over Christmas this is quite a nice way of wasting a few hours with your young kids

Heat (highfive)

Diddy Kong, Dr Mario and Waluigi all unlock outfits in Mario Odysee.

I don't think I've ever seen Diddy Kong in stock anywhere in the last 2 years

Diddy and Mario are out of stock now. Shame

Diddy Kong oos ffs.

Nice prices. CEX want £18 and £15 for Waluigi and Diddy Kong second hand (lol)

Found one pack in my local (highfive) also some in the Liskard store

What a surprise ..'out of stock'

My 2DS purchase went undelivered for two weeks and I had to fight to get my money back before Grainger disappeared into administration. Good luck with this. You're all braver than I am if you order.

My copy of ultra sun came factory sealed from Grainger Games on Monday, Nintendo wrapping nd all I’ve heard about receiving unsealed copies so I’m sure it’s just a bit of a gamble

Ordered! Thank OP!

Yea mate, new but not sealed.

Haha my bad “Used” games as “New”! Honestly just do a basic google search, there have been a fair few complaints about this. There is a thread on here about issues with them too. uk.trustpilot.com/review/graingergames.co.uk hotukdeals.com/discussions/grainger-games-reviews-2702186

Well that's counter-intuitive! (lol)

Anybody bought it from them yet? If you ordered new, did it come sealed? Research has taught me to be careful of Grainger Games selling ‘New’ games as used.

Would this have much longevity if played purely single player? I don’t have 3DS friends haha

Why would they, the game still sells at full price 5 years after it launched

I'm a huge Animal Crossing fan, but I can't help but notice that KK Slider doesn't quite look right.

Nah, don't do that. I'm voting hot. They'd be good for party bags if your child has geeky mates

Good point! I didn't even notice that. I may have to vote cold on my own deal now.

Yeah, I didn't know about them either, I like them. Overkill on this though, there are only 8 characters so you get 3 of each one. Good if you know 2 other people who would like them though.

For those that want to get the apparent £20.99 deal.... (cheeky)

I recall the price drop as well - went for PS4 edition and then saw Switch drop its price - Rage mode...

Big retailer in shock black Friday pricing scandal! (lol) (lol)

Toys R Us were given the rights to sell it for a short while before Xmas.

Mmmm weird, i remember contemplating which console 🤔 £20.99 lookin back through HotUk No idea where I put the receipt

Anyone know if the Happy Home Designer cards work with MK8D?

Only in stock in one store in a 9 mile radius for me :(

Sucks that amazon only let you have 2 and non of the argos near me stock them

It worked for me. I must have got lucky before they realised.

Don't seem to be able to see that option, only Prime, Standard, One-Day + Express Delivery

Got the Pikmin one for £5.99 quite good.

Also £3.99 on Amazon with Prime delivery available (y)

Thanks OP :) reserved!

I kinda want the Ness, even though I hate Amiibos and everything they stand for :S

If this is a hot deal ! Gawd help us :( - Who let the sheep out ? (shock)

Yay! I might be able to complete my collection! Heat added! :3 (party)

Price matching Argos http://www.argos.co.uk/product/6348584 http://www.argos.co.uk/product/4178299 Series 1 album with 1 pack of cards £4.99 http://www.argos.co.uk/product/4534376

They're £1.49 for Non-Prime members now!

Random. Cex buy some for decent money but it is a lottery.

They are totally random

Good price for the amiibo. Glad I missed this at a tenner a while ago.

The Amiibo cards are not cheap at all when you consider there is quite a lot of them. We have approx. 30-40 individual cards and there is no doubt many more don't have. And then you have to factor in you are going to get duplicate cards when you buy them. I don't think the cards even gloss over the Festival Wii U game or add anything myself. The cards are best used IMO with Happy Home Designer on 3DS. Now that is a good game for kids. The kids become designers in the Animal Crossing world and they take on projects, and the cards give them new projects to design.

@Evilmonkey Well, the main game itself has zero challenge, you just go around the board with a few animations and the one who collects most happy points wins. It's really just a game of chance mixed with a cartoon. The more interesting game is the island mini-game where you have to escape an island working cooperatively. It is still very simplistic, but it does require a bit of discussion about strategies etc. However I think it requires the amiibo cards, not just the figures that come with the box. The cards are not very expensive (less than a fiver for 3 cards I think) and I have ended up buying a few packs. They are somewhat collectable and each character has slightly different abilities so it's fun to mix and match (and part of the pre-game discussion with my daughters). That game might interest a 10 year old, but you'll probably only play it for a year.

Great price for the amiibo, but the game is absolutely horrendous, it's a joke

I am going to offer a differing opinion on what age group might likes it. My kid and his friend were ages 6-7, they played the game once and just found it annoying and stupid. My kid tried it again one further time, almost like just to make sure it is a crap game, and it was again a case of not wanting to play it. There is so little to it and it is dreadfully basic and poor even for a young kid. Leaf and Happy Home are both fantastic Animal Crossing games for kids. You would therefore think, this game even if not to those standards must be decent, but no it does not even get anywhere near close to being "decent". It must have been quickly produced, it is like they barely got started and finished the game off very early. Somewhere, there is someone digging a hole beside the ET hole for the remaining stock.
