2024 HAUL - FEBRUARY CHAPTER: BATCH #3
Just two games for this batch as there's a lot of items arriving much later in the month.
So last month a whole bunch of American fans noticed a select number of Nintendo first-party games were delisted or out of stock entirely, suggesting the Nintendo Selects budget label is making a return. Granted we have no clue if that will even happen so I wanted to ensure I have those original copies sorted as soon as possible. Last month I picked up four games that were among the ones listed and today we have another one.
Yoshi's Crafted World is a platformer that has honestly caught my eye ever since it was first revealed. Looked like a good time to check out and the last time I played a Yoshi game was probably Yoshi's Island DS over a decade ago. Now while the US are panicking about their stock, the UK/Europe side of things are mostly fine but both Paper Mario: The Origami King and Yoshi's Crafted World are both very limited in terms of availability and has been like this for about almost half a year. Retailers don't have them so it's down to the second market, so I paid retail price for a used copy though it's in pretty good condition. I did find a copy at CeX when I went into town but the condition was not as good and the price was £42 which is more than what I paid here.
The second instalment in the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy is almost here but I have yet to order it and on top of that, I also wanted to revisit the first game again because it's been almost four years since I had played the original PS4 version and there's added content exclusive to the PS5 remaster.
So with that said, I ordered and received Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade. To recap, this remake adapts the first disc of the original PlayStation version and expands it a lot with new content, stories and much more. I probably will start over the game from scratch than use the trophy/save transfer idea to be honest.
