I just got NES Remix Pack, along with my only Black Friday purchase : A Link Between Worlds!  I can't wait to have some time to play them.

I want to pick up the NES Remix Pack myself. I'm curious if my save from the digital version will work with it. I've only played some of the 1st one, and if it doesn't work I'll just play the digital version, but it'd be nice if they were compatible.

I was curious myself, so I just went ahead and tried; the saves are separate

Welp, thanks for the update!

So even though I already have the Target exclusive Steel Book Edition of Tomb Raider I found a deal on the collectors edition I could not pass up ($20). So now I have both.



The collectors edition just had way too many goodies for me to resist.


I also picked up a like new classic controller for $14 for the WiiU since the game cube adapter is still crazily priced.

And found a copy of Gorf for Atari 2600 for $2.

Also, did a trade with fighterpilot562, and got a Sega CD Model 2, along with Double switch, so I thank him for helping me out!

Xenoblade Chronicles for $44 is an awesome deal.

Got my copy of Class of Heroes 2g in the mail today!

Agreement. Its still a load of crap that it was a Game Stop exclusive though.

I agree with that especially with the price bs during the first year of its release, where they jacked up the price elsewhere by limiting copies and making a second batch later on. I got a bit lucky on this as most of the Gamestop stores near me only had 1 pre-owned copy( near a few new copies) which were either sold out or missing the original case and manual, but an employee directed me to another one of their stores that had 3 complete copies, so I put a copy on hold, raced over there and got it.

It's still goes around $75 on amazon and ebay for a complete copy, so I'm guessing it may be pretty hard to find in places that don't have many Gamestops, or have one at all. I wish they could have made this available to all retailers to make it easier for consumers to get the game.  If the new 3DS port of Xenoblade comes to the US, it may affect the price of the original game, but knowing how things will probably play out, I think this original Wii version is going to continue to increase in value and be the more desireable version to play.

Somehow a local indi-game shop near me got about 5 copies in when it launched and I was luckily able to buy mine at retail from there. I agree though, it's crap that Gamestop still have exclusive rights to this game, especially since its sequel is being toted as one of the best RPGs of 2015.
