Topic: Considering a Nintendo switch for my sons Christmas gift

Well Im sorry I suck at explaining ok sheesh..

Forgot to mention Mortal Kombat 11.

@DTMOF84 -_- Just no, that's tooooooo violent.

Rocket League would be a good addition as you can all play online together IF you have Nintendo Switch Online. That is cheaper than it's competitors (aka Xbox Live and PS Online) and you can buy it annually. However, it's best to buy it on the E-Shop (the Switch's online shop) rather than in stores as it costs much more in there. Also, if your child is wanting to play with friends online, there is no voice chat or messaging for some reason (with the unusual exception of Fortnite).

Is it possible to add funds to the eshop without buying the switch first? My in-laws gave us a gift card ( thought he already had it) but I can’t seen to find where to add funds.

I don't think so, @Ruthless4u .... Can't find anyway to do it on site in browser, at least

@Ruthless4u
Nope. You need the actual console first.

Dang.

Now I need to find a place to hide it where he won’t find it and I won’t forget I put it.

Not to delve into politics. But with the potential trade issues with China there has been a lot of speculation of various electronics prices increasing.

Would anyone consider this a possibility for the switch?
