If you come to think of it, the games you mentioned cost around $100 each. $60 for the game, and then $30 for the Season Pass, and maybe add $10 for extra content.

By simply avoiding 3, 4, maybe 5 games taht end up like Watch Dogs or AC:U you can finally purchase a Wii U.

Now, seriously, everyone talks about $300 as if it were a fortune.Underpowered or not the console is overall good, the online is free (and most of the time decent) and it has some great quality games. Not suitable for primary console but it's absolutely perfect as a secondary console. Sure, you can't just pull out $300 at any moment, but if you can't spare $300 in the long term (one, two years maybe?), you probably shouldn't be purchasing any videogames at all. Opportunity costs bitches (yay I actually learnt something useful other than math in school)

Indeed! I own every console of this gen (except the XOne, which will follow soon!) and I don't have any money problems...

I sometimes wonder what people actually spend their money on, when they can't afford a system for a few games they want each year.

Dude you forgot to put the step where you have to go to the shop to buy it. That's a fucking hassle, I ain't doing that shit.

You can order it online as well! Isn't that just great?

Step one sounds easy enough, handing my money over is even easier.

For me it's just down to timing and acquiring a new TV since I got rid of my last one a year ago.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Life taught me to get Nintendo console first, because their games price rarely drops. And after that get another console, and buy the games for $10.

Dammit! Just return the game if possible!

Hm... might be worth a try, but you know what would be even better?

1) Buy Call of Duty at Walmart

2) Remove disc, replace with a used sock

3) Return to Walmart along with the packaging

4) ???

5) 60$ profit, which you can save up for your own Wii U and a COD Disc for your PS4

 

 

 

(... I'm just kidding, guys that are reading this, don't do that kinda stuff )

I think no one is that stupid.

Yea, what a waste of socks, put a used condom into the box instead!  O-)

Step 1 (alternative) spend the money on great games like Dragon Age, farcry4, alien isolation or The evil within and delay your Wii U purchase a little more.

Or ditch the Evil Within and get Zombi U, a much better survival horror game.
