Topic: Ho Ho Ho - I plan on giving away digital games!

Every time I get paid between this upcoming Wednesday and Christmas I will give away a random code for an Indie darling. I am starting this off with a 3-month Individual Nintendo Online code:

C056PD59514GPKGC

Have fun! For the games I may do fun Nintendo Trivia questions and the first correct answer wins. (You can only win once)

That’s very generous of you! 😁

Remember to let folks know if you’ve grabbed a code, everyone. For example, someone already snagged this gift.

Future gifts will be DM'd direct to the winner of the Trivia Question. This was the only free for all lol.

No problem I want to spread some 2019 Indie love, games in which I feel are amazing titles that many didn't give a second glance at due to the cost of paying for an unknown game. Many feel more comfortable spending their video game money on 1st party Nintendo titles than on Katana Zero for example.

Also I love giving back to the community of my life long favorite hobby. I remember being a gamer growing up and the real struggle to afford games or to step out of my comfort zone with which games to purchase.

I'm not sure if making it a contest is a good idea, since it would be against the site rules.

And we don't have a messaging system you could use anyway.

@StableInvadeel
I was not aware of no Private Messaging system. Wouldn't have really been a contest just a way to prevent one person from using all the codes. This makes things tricky

If this thread stays up, that's very kind of you @Old_Man_Nintendo. The world needs kindness, as we all know. saying this very, VERY early but happy holidays

@NintendoByNature
Thank you for your kind words. I am wondering if an @admin could reach out to me and I could work out a way to get them the codes and distribute them in a fair way be it trivia questions or whatever idea they would like

I've reached out to Nintendo Life staff and if they can help me facilitate this by me providing them the codes and then distributing them in a fair way the four games I would donate a digital code for after the following:

Ape Out
Katana Zero
My Friend Pedro
Untitled Goose Game

I want to spread some joy but also expose the winners to four of the best Indie titles to hit the Switch in 2019

@Old_Man_Nintendo Awfully nice of you. Hopefully NL is receptive to the idea.

I'm actually kind of pleasantly surprised that this thread isn't locked yet, and there are definitely some nice games in that list that I might want to have a go at, so I'll be keeping an eye on how things will go here.

@ThanosReXXX if it was a new user I'd think it would've been locked asap. But he's a veteran at this point 😉

I'd imagine this could work if the winner had Facebook or Twitter. You could announce the winner here and ask the questions, but DM the code on social media. That's my opinion, but wait for a few others as well.

Yeah that would get sketchy quickly which is probably why we don't allow contests

I got a direct response from the contact us message I sent.

Hey Steven,

I’m sorry, but we do not permit that kind of thing on Nintendo Life as it would be something outside our control.

Therefore we suggest you use social media.

All the best and thanks for checking first.

Cheers

So it's over I will go to one of the other communities, most likely on Discord I frequent to be charitable

NOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Oh, well. It was a nice idea while it lasted...

Figured it would be like that. Thank you for asking them directly.

Well, I guess we can close this thread.
