I'll mainly be using it to test cartridges out anyway, so I won't be using it for long periods of time. |

Just how sure do you have to be? The handheld MD, SNES and now NES that I've got are very convenient just to see if a cart is basically working. If it doesn't work in one of them though, then there's a chance they're not compatible with them, so I have to then test them on the various original consoles dotted around. I'm getting steadily more organised and efficient.. although the living room still needs a lot of work. Attachment: IMG_20190905_203707.jpg

 <136> 16 core 32 thread X99 Xeon (Broadwell E) engineering sample. Base clock on all cores is 2.3ghz, Turbo 3.0 goes 3.4 on up to 4 cores then 3.2 on 8.

Tbf Nintendo games rarely dip below £40, even when they’re a couple of years old. I bought Mario Maker 2 for £40 on release because I found a shop selling it for that much — it was £50 everywhere else. I’ve been waiting for Mario Kart 8 to hit £30 or under because I played it to death on the Wii U. I ended up borrowing Joans’s copy of Zelda: BotW because it was too expensive, even in sales. Plus he doesn’t pay tax so might as well splash out. |

Although now I've looked into it, I see it's a remake and not the original NES game. Still though, fifty quid. |

It’s by far, the least objectionable purchase. Everything is made completely from scratch. I think Super Mario Bros. U Switch Deluxe for full price; Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Breeze for full price; Captain Toads Treasure Tracker for full price or the other WiiU half assed conversion jobs for full price are more worthy of derision. |

| Post subject: | Re: WongaWatch - The Grand Game Expenditure Thread 2019 |
Captain Toad was never full price as far as I know. I bought it quite early on after missing it on the Wii U and I paid £25 I think. You are right in general about the price of Switch remakes though. |

Quote: Space Hulk: Tactics is a turn-based strategy game set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, pitting squads of Space Marine Terminators against swarms of alien Genestealers aboard massive amalgamations of abandoned starships called Space Hulks.
Based on the classic Games Workshop boardgame, Space Hulk: Tactics lets you pick between these two factions in full campaigns, solo vs. AI, or competitive online play. A new card system enhances the turn-based strategy gameplay, ensuring no two games are ever the same and giving you many more tactical options on every turn. With a map creation tool also available, you will never run out of new scenarios to play. |
