I don't buy a lot of games on release so it's great for me. I tend to bulk-buy 3-5 older games (talking 4-5 months after release) with the help of player point discounts every now and then. With that system you replenish your points almost quicker than you can spend them.
But yeah, I don't use it when I want a new release anymore. Not cheap enough to justify the wait.

Yeah, that's almost exactly what I do, ha. Very few games will get a day one purchase from me. If I can't find games cheap on BSS groups on Facebook, I'll do a bit of a bulk buy on OGS after they've been out for a bit.
It's a shame though, I used to buy all my games from them. They were so far ahead of the pack at one point.

They're the reason I have a retail version of the original Xenoblade Chronicles. That was a great day for me.

More on topic, I upgraded my pre-orders for Sun and Moon to the Collector's Editions at EB. The extra tenner each seems decent. I've actually been shopping there more lately. I guess a bit like OGS, if you use their rewards program and price match, they can work out alright.

The only thing I use EB World for these days is their holding period for newly released preorders. But I have saved a good dollar with price matching as you've said.
I plan on recording a Sun Nuzlocke once it comes out, would love for you guys to have a look once the game comes out!
In the meantime I've started a Nuzlocke on Black 2. Would love some feedback if you ever get the need to watch thanks guys

Keen as, get to fly around on charizard hell yeah!
What the *... i am not a fan of the Z Moves, they just look stupidly over powered.
The new pokemom were mostly pretty dope. Ice Steel Sandslash is epic.
Seems to be no Gyms/Elite 4 confirmed.
I'll see how it is, but I swear if the games story line is some wishy washy help me do this, help me do that, i'll help you be the hero Extra G-Rated crap i'll be bored.
I want some ******* tension and excitement back in the game. Everyone's too bloody nice these days.

I don't know, quite a few "I'm getting too old for this" feels watching that vid.
Just do a Nuzlocke mate I lost that tension years ago but a Nuzlocke playthrough well and truely keeps you invested. Personally think the post game will be going back to Kalos to challenge the gyms there
Nuzlockes always have me on edge.
I'll do a Nuzlocke on these games as soon as they come out, in the meantime I'm doing one on Black 2 and even early on it has me on edge
I just want an actual Rival again, like Blue or Gold. I hate the stupid "friend" rivals like Wally, it takes all the fun out of the game.
I'm doing a Fire Red one and uploading it to Youtube atm. Just versed my rival in Cerulean. Tense moments there.
Yeah sadly those times seem gone and they where also the toughest to beat
I'll be sure to give it a look mate put a link on here when it's done!

ehh too many 'forms' and random stuff... Keep it simple but challenging.
Igloo
Not a mod
I'm not sure how to feel about that trailer. Some of it looks pretty cool, some definitely feels... not cool. I'm confused.
On face value, I can't say i'm a fan with getting rid of gyms and replacing them with what they have. That doesn't seem very Pokemony.

Love these designs, especially Ninetails and even Exeggutor. Don't know why they had to introduce Z moves which look way overpowered.
Its about damn time. There is so much you can do with the Pokemon RPGs, gyms have been stale since gen 2 or 3.
