Probably the first switch game I'd actually class as a deal. Good to see the games coming down to more reasonable prices.

Anyone into this?? Played demo but seemed very basic???

I played the demo, and quite liked it, but the Switch has many other better games coming in the next couple of months that I have actually cancelled my pre order for this. Dragonball Xenoverse is apparently a better fighting game with more content than Pokken so most fighting fans will just get that. Personally I will wait for a £20 price point, either next year or as a Selects title.

Yeh the lineup is pretty good, am I right in thinking this seems basic though?? Seems to be a game to get bored of quickly

You might want to have a go at the Gameseek cyclonic deal on this at £25. I managed to get it Pre ordered. Xenoverse is available to for £25. Got to be quick of course though!

Keep hammering add to basket until it goes in. Noticed it can sometimes be up to 2 mins before it eventually adds to basket.

I got the Ninjago movie game in the basket earlier but that wasn't popular, theres a few titles im goin for when they come on, so you dont need refresh the page, just press add to basket??

Yes no need to refresh, make sure you are clicked in to the item page prior to to the timer reaching 0 then when the notifications button changes to add to basket just keep hitting it. Can take up to 90 seconds or so sometimes but eventually the stock comes through and it adds. Just checkout on these deals ASAP to make sure it stays in your basket. Sometimes if you leave it on your basket and don't check out straight away it puts the deal live again takes it out your basket.

Thanks for the heads up. I have never used it before so this will be a test run and hopefully I can grab FIFA 18 for £30 whenever that pops up again. Obviously they take money straight away but that isn't an issue with a game that is due out fairly soon.
Have you received a game bought using this method?

Yes several and my £198.50 switch :smile:

Looking forward to receiving Pokken for £25 then. If I don't like it then I will be able to sell it for more than that anyway. Win win. Cheers again and I will watch these cyclonic deals more closely in the future.

Glad you got it. I picked up Xenoverse 2 should work out £22 with the TCB £3 bonus. Like you if I don't like it should still be able to turn a profit. Pokken games generally hold value well. Just be aware that you will get it a few days after release more than likely. A small price to pay for the big saving.
Any joy?

Ye those new prices that were showing over the weekend seemed to have applied today or will apply on the next cycle. Shame they put the prices up but I've got the best of it so all good.

I wrote all the times and prices down last night so the change happened from last night, still £30 good price for Mario, I didn't even know about the thing until you mentioned it :thumbsup:
Kais to UltimatePhoenix
18 Sep 17#32
I was wondering whether it was just me because I had bought one or something. Every price went up at least £2.50 and some up £5. Still a good deal which is probably why they have snuck the prices up.
Hopefully I can snag Odyssey tomorrow morning at 06:20 ish.

Nope. Stock gone instantly. Probably only had 10 copies. I was confident of snagging one considering it was 06:20. :disappointed:

Guys just to let you know. Don't be getting up early for Mario. It's another 4 days now. They have fixed alot of the issues around the deals. Good news is the most popular games will be getting more stock as the deal goes live but with longer cycles in between, such as Mario Odyssey. So hopefully when it comes around we should all have a decent chance of snagging a copy.

Noticed the time had gone up, 77 hours to 96 hours :thinking: Shame they haven't kept the prices as low, Far Cry 5 went up a fiver without displaying a deal,. Good to know though cheers :thumbsup:
