*** Nintendo Switch ***

Agreed on astral chain. Looking like a mega title. I am on the fence about Luigi's mansion. I think it looked like a well polished title and can see the appeal but it's just not jumping at me like I hoped.

Will think on it. No release date yet anyway which I thought was surprising.

Oct 31st would be pretty cool That’s only a couple of weeks before Pokemon though, so maybe they’ll hold it back for Christmas.

Witcher 3 is a must buy for me.

Same. Which is utter madness really, as it'll be the fourth platform I've bought it for. And I haven't finished it once yet...

Astral Chain looked great in the Treehouse shows! Hadn’t heard too much of it before, but it’s a def buy now along with Luigi’s Mansion. Looks a very strong second half of the year for Nintendo!

Yea astral chains looks fantastic! Cant wait for it to come out tbh

Can someone advise how to purchase from the american eshop? I've done other regions okay but this one won't accept any of my payment methods (Revo, Monzo).
Wanting to pick up NBA 2K19 ($2.99!).

Cheers

My cards don't work either. I just ended up buying eshop cards from other territories and doing it that way.

I don't understand how they can incorporate everything in this game onto the switch.. The size of the game for example...

It's genuinely impressive, are they including DLC as well?

Edit: yup DLC too, all on one cartridge, no download needed.

will we see cyberpink 2077 on switch?

I cannot see it happening.

It looks like a true next gen game. I'd be amazed if it ran on stock PS4 and Xbox One tbh.

My PC install is 38GB and there are 32GB switch carts. With how...'unique' the Switch port looks I doubt it's even getting close to 32GB to be honest.

No need for high res textures either as its only doing 720P docked.

Cant wait for end of the month.

Is there a cheaper way to get nintendo shop games via vouchers etc?

Buy the games from a different eshop region.

Har har. Dont give up your day job K

I meant can you buy Nintendo vouchers/credit for cheaper (e.g. similar how you can buy itunes vouchers for cheaper than their face value?)

Really happy there'll be a new Zelda with the BoTW engine on switch. Was thinking Nintendo might make us wait for Switch 2 or pro or whatever

I don't know what your aversion is to using the other eshops but you save 20-30% just by using the South African or Russian eshops.

The faf of having to reconfigure/have another account etc.
And I am not the only one with this aversion.

It’s really simple, takes less than a minute. (Unless buying from US as I learned today). But 99% of my games come from SA store, in fact I just leave my region set to this constantly as 9 times out of 10 it’s way cheaper than the UK.

I don’t multi account either, just the one.
