Nintendo DS Games
Well as you may or may not know I stupidly left my DS Lite with all of my 8 games on the plane when we moved here, along with my ipod Nano and a TDK zip up speaker system, the TDK speaker system but the ipod inside and everything else, was taken, GUTTED! Luckily we had 'Go Walkabout' insurance and I have just managed to get all of the required documentation to prove ownership of said belongings. What held us up for the last three months was my partner's bank, First Direct getting the bank statement to us to prove he bought me the Nano. Anyhoo I digress, my question is this, I'm obviously looking to replace my games whilst here, once the claim is finalised. Howeverrrrrrrr I have searched 'Game' and 'Wow Sight and Sound' and am horrified to find that they don't stock some of the games. Namely 'Big Brain Academy' and '42 All-time Classics', does Australia have a different range of games to that in the UK? If so, I just tried amazon.co.uk and they don't deliver here, can anyone suggest any other sites that stock similar titles to UK ones that accept UK or Oz bank cards or Paypal? Some of my 8 games I won't be buying again, but some I do want to replace like for like...so.....any suggestions? Here's hoping...:fingerscrossed: (and before you say it, YES I AM A BIG KID!!!) :o

Re: Nintendo DS Games
EB Games Au and US Amazon have Big Brain Academy but not 42 All-time Classics. That one must be a UK one as Play.com have it but they don't ship to Aus either. Can you get a friend to buy it for you and send it out?

Hi Jen,
You could try Gametraders in Grand Central, the guys there are pretty helpful and they may be able to order the games you are looking for. We really should catch up for a coffee at some time :) Lisa

Re: Nintendo DS Games
Gotta wait til my insurance claim comes through, but if they're still for sale by then I'd definitely consider it. I doubt my paperwork has even reached the UK yet so I couldn't possibly give you a timescale, sorry....
