Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@JaxonH that's what I assumed. I wanted that digitally but I might wait on the inevitable 10 buck discount from Wal-Mart for physical.

@JaxonH "It's exciting times right now "

That's not the description that emerges from my mouth when I look at my monthly statement in 4 weeks.

Just take out a loan or do like me and get a second job. (I mean you are still going to cry...but think of the games!)

That is normal if you ask me and I believe that doing nothing else but playing video games/using the computer like many people do is absolutely unhealthy. I love having breaks and doing other things that I love and when I go back to video games I enjoy them much more.

@Ryu_Niiyama A loan to subsidize gaming miiiight just draw the wrong response from the cartel. And second jobs are self defeating if they rob you of time to play the games. Maybe we need to rob a train? It's easier, it's faster, and it works really really well in RDR2.....

Just sell things on ebay/locally, that's completely funded my gaming habit for almost a decade and takes very very little effort lol!

Been told that at work a switch mega is in the pipeline. So we get a mini now a mega. Sounds nuts it's a 12 inch screen with 500 gb. Sounds crazy I mean be good for house but taking that about would be a bit of a effort. Be nice though big screen

@redd214 It’s even better when it’s not your stuff!! (I’m joking, of course)

I tend to play the trade value market. It’s like turnips. Converted $25 cash to $51 trade the other day.

@ryobi85 Never listen to that person(s) again.

@NEStalgia LOL thats why I work gaming into my schedule. That way nothing is lost. (Used to game during lunch but I go to the gym instead because I can't be bothered to get up early right now). Then again I nearly threw my back out carrying that Amaterasu statue box... (not really but it WAS heavy)

It sounds crazy because it IS crazy. Nothing of the sort is in the works.

@HobbitGamer yeah its simple to do and doesnt take my work, surprised more people dont take advantage. Have spent less than $50 this week and have almost $150 in trade credit at GS because of the current promo. Going to hit up some yard sales this weekend and see if I can flip and make another $100 before it ends, free Switch Lite!!!

@ryobi85 Does he have an uncle who works at Nintendo or something? Why should we believe his/your information?

@ryobi85 Crazy is absolutely the very first word that came to my mind upon reading that.... I say that as someone on the record multiple times saying I'd love to have a 12" Switch.....

@redd214 Rob the train, then launder the stuff on eBay, got it! That's a great plan, you're a genius! I'll make sure you get all the credit for the plan! Now we just need hideout and we're all set! Maybe we can use @Ryu_Niiyama's Ami statue as our secret base?

Don't touch the statue! Took me a year to pay for it. (Although now I'm scared about the size of the Midna and AA statues I have coming down the pipe.)

EDIT: NOOOOO new gears of war statue! I'm going to die at Amazon...I just know it.

Hi,
I'm looking to get a new and larger sd card for my switch (256 or 400gb). I already have a 128 gb sd card so, I'm wondering what is the best way to tranfer data from the old one to a new one? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

@Ryu_Niiyama
This is why I now limit my collectibles to Fire Emblem, Monster Hunter, Xenoblade, Dragon Quest, Metroid, Zelda...

...

Ok that doesnt sound very "limited" at all.

Nevermind.

@JaxonH Doesn't get any cheaper really, you listed all A list properties with expensive merch (you are getting the DQ Switch...you know better)! LOL. I got into statues because I couldn't afford F4F (Zelda OoT) statues as a kid and my mom would have buried me in the back yard if I'd bought the (cheap now that I look back) statues that I wanted.

I was trying to go back to figma and sailor moon but every time I pay off a f4f they release something to replace it. Like everything while I'm paying off a big statue will be meh...As soon as I get the new box, "Oh hey here is a franchise you can't ignore, Ryu!" (granted this will keep me from trying to find the Sailor Moon pen that is like 500 dollars...rolls eye.) Like why didn't they just make another megaman statue?

...I just wish they had the payment plan when the TP Zelda came out. I had to cancel mine because I was a good adult and paid bills. The bad part is I'm mostly buying these so I don't have to pay some scalper 3x the price later. I have no where to put them until I move, and at this rate I'll have to rent a house instead of an apartment. lol. (I can't wait till I can afford to buy a house.)

I'm glad I don't bother with any of those.... I don't buy limited, special or collector's editions of games, either While I recently got a 'limited edition' XBox One s, it was pre-owned for the same as the normal one

^ Some stuff you have to though. Fates on one cartridge was worth the cash.

I miss when in the 360 era, special editions included the season passes if the game had one.
