Topic: Ideas for the site

@Anti-Matter are they working again now?

@antdickens
Yup.
I can watch the YouTube video link here.
Thank you. 😊

The site is coming up with Bad Gateway errors and in general being rather slow.

When you select a game and add to your collection, could there be a Have(Digital) and Have(Physical) options or a tick box if physical?
I own two digital games and all the rest are physical, but a lot of them are classed as eShop games on this site.
To be honest I just want to show off that I have the physical versions

When making game reviews is there a way to include the current physical situation of the game?

1. Does it have a physical edition?
2. If it has a physical edition, is it worth it? (meaning is there content on the cartridge)

I know that it is extra effort to research or send requests to the publishers. But if they send you review codes maybe they have the info for future physical edition plans.

@antdickens

is there a basket option in eshop on Nintendo switch

@Ninfan Not sure why you're asking that on this thread, but there isn't a shopping basket. It's anyone's guess why Nintendo thought it was a good idea to force us to buy games one by one.

There’s a basket for when you’re buying dlc

But yeah that’s a bit off topic

Add Pokemon TCG app code to the game accounts in your profile

@Bunkerneath potentially... although I'm not sure there will be enough people that find it useful? We have a thread going though: https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/nintendo-mobile/pokemon_t...

@antdickens Well, you got the Pokemon Go one there (shrug)

I have another idea: could you make a message or indicator appear on screen that tells you that you’ve already sent messages to a forum before?

I know that it sounds maybe a bit unnecessary and useless, but recently I sent a new message to a forum that was inactive since 2023, and some others went to comment on the thread too but they realized that they accidentally repeated what they said on the thread before since they forgot about commenting on the forum because of it being inactive for nearly two years, and I feel like I might have inconvenienced others.

I think that a kind of indicator would be helpful, since there are quite a few super inactive forums that I comment on and I don’t want to inconvenience others that already commented on the forums, plus I sometimes forget what forums I have commented on in the past while chatting on the more active and popular forums.

@Pastellioli thanks for the suggestion... I like the idea and yes perhaps we can factor that into the forum revamp if/as/when that happens. It could be as simple as having a note "Your last post to this thread was day/month year" with a link, next to the reply box.

@antdickens That sounds helpful! Yes, and I think people could also use it to keep track of their posts to forums too, and maybe see the amount of times they posted on there.

@antdickens or anyone at @nintendolife is there something up with the buy Nintendo codes section of the site? I do the additional log in but then every page becomes "400 Bad Request".

I wanted to get some discounted eshop vouchers for the digital sales.

@antdickens The site's getting infected with Hero Wars ads, could you block them?

@Grumblevolcano can you send me a screenshot of what you are referring to?

@jump hmm, did you manage to get it working? Try resetting the location/language

@jump

This has happened to me too during the past 2 times I tried to buy discount vouchers via NL. Got so frustrating I ended up not getting any. Not tried again with the latest offer though.

@antdickens Nope, still not working. It's fine setting a location/language but then plays up once I sign in and I can't buy anything without signing in. I've tried it both on my phone and laptop.

@Mana_Knight @jump the supplier has asked that you get in touch directly and explain the problem, they can then try and figure out what is happening and fix the problem, go here: https://help.famehype.gg/

I appreciate the help, maybe if you can get it fixed it will help others too. Thanks!
