Good to hear. Like I said, it happened to me and I fucking panicked. And when the dentist finally told me he didn't see any chipped teeth, I kind of felt like a schmuck.
It's been sitting on the 30 euro mark for a while now on English/European online retailers - which is about 2/3 of full price. I think it will go down to 18-20 very shortly

TLOU has been holding its price pretty well; almost as well as a Nintendo franchise. Tomb Raider was on sale for $20 on PSN not to long ago, even cheaper for Plus subscribers.
Yeah I was sure after the next gen launches and the holidays that there would be lots of people selling off their copies. Still not quite the case. "Please sir, have mercy on a hobo gamer."
People forget about this stuff too easily. 3DS had about a year of negativity too and still barely has any decent 3rd party support outside a smattering of offerings. It's successful because of Nintendo. Even if Nintendo turn Wii U around the well has been pissed in and no one will take any 3rd party support seriously, unless it's exclusive. All Nintendo can do now is commission about 5 exclusives from partners per year and hope it's enough to maintain a fanbase for a few years. You don't even see publishers making smaller more innovative games like Wii got, I guess those are for smartphones now.
Well their previous console was a record breaker but mostly terrible for 3rd parties. Nintendo continues to do stuff their own way, ignoring the industry standards and they expect 3rd parties to go completely out of their way to make games for them with worse specs and basically no good online setup so they can sell like 40k copies. No one is going to do that.
Well, I have been using the Upad charge cradle for a couple weeks now. Whenever I'm done playing or just need a 10 minute break, I put it back on the cradle. So far, I haven't had any issues with the 3-hr battery anymore.
Yes?!!!
Leo's back!
Bloobers.
Bloopers.
Yay!
Heh, I thought Bowser's Castle was the Final Boss. I was just about to say that it was the shittiest final boss battle Nintendo has ever done, but then Bowser stole all of the fairies again, and opened up a new world.
Good to see you back Leo, hope you've been well.
Hope everybody had a great weekend. Mine just flew by. Didn't get to play any videogames. Even while on the bog I always reached for the kindle instead of the 3DS

Leo what is the game with the gem trophy?
Diablo III
Ah, going for that loot game goodness I see.
I've always used the craddle. It stores the Upad nicely, while also charging it. It's an essential part of the console in my opinion, and keeping the Upad charged without it would be such a fuss.
Thanks! About 2/3 of the way through Picross e2!
