Ok guys. I'm about to bless you with a hall of famer.

$70 eShop Credit for $50 on Walmart website. Max purchase 2 per order, no limit on quantity of orders you can put in. I just snatched $560 of eShop cred for $400 (not to mention the 1.5% back with CC and 5% back in gold coins when using on games, which takes it to just under $600 net value.

One for the history books

Stuff your digital purse now with as much credit as you can afford. As long as you know you'll spend it eventually anyways, it's free money. It's a free additional 30% off for as many games as you're willing to front the cash for.

@JaxonH If we take it, is it valid outside of America? It is forced to choose in the address part. I used it in 3ds but how does it work on switch? While the ready Monster Hunter will be out in two months, it is very convenient.

@JokerCK
Honestly I'm not sure.

Could probably google it to see if NA eShop credit codes work in other region eShops. I don’t think they do, but if your balance is zero, you can change your region of your Switch to NA, and your eShop region. Then the card will work. But you’d have to spend it on the NA eShop, make sure to spend all of it, then switch it back.

Probably not worth the hassle if not in NA

@JaxonH thanks for the heads up. I need somebody to do that with the yen cards. I did snag 4 of these though. My 1TB is full so I'm buying less digital but this is a nice padding for later.

@JaxonH Thanks. Grabbed three cards. I was planning on going mostly physical this year (and still plan to with the Atlus games I want), but three of those cards is a free $60. That's a free full-price Switch game. It's even better than the voucher program Nintendo used to have.

@Ralizah @Ryu_Niiyama
Np. Deals this good don’t come around often. Usually I buy from Raise ever since you showed me that trick, but they’re down to like 8% back now. Still way better than full price, for sure, but 30% is too good to pass up.

My micro SD card filled with 500+ screenshots and some 30 sec videos of Animal Crossing New Horizons.
Also, i have more than 30 videos of Zanmato (Yojimbo's Overdrive) when i was playing FF X Switch.

Should I tell them? 😉

I’ve filled two 1TB cards, aside from 150gb free space on the second spare tucked in the Nyko kickstand. Granted, this was 100% digital. Have to keep archiving games on the main card and downloading on the spare. 2TB cards can’t come soon enough. Unfortunately the Lite has no kickstand, so no slot for a spare SD. That one is just constant musical chairs with the best 1TB of games, the other half are perma-archived. First world problems.

@JaxonH I thought buying a 256Gb card was overkill but I'm positively shocked! It must cost a lot to maintain this library of games. Granted I download less games digitally than you for sure (and less games in general) but some deals are too good to pass up.

I doubt my digital games would fit on a 1TB card at this point (despite me usually buying physical where I can) but I'm pretty content with sticking to my 400GB card and keeping most of my collection archived. If I've finished a game or aren't going to be playing it any time soon then it doesn't really matter if it's installed or not.

I'm all digital and have five SD cards totaling over 2 TB in circulation. In practice I have 4 of these as an alphabetical archive of games, and other one contains my current games. If I want to play a game that's not on my "current" SD card, I simply swap in the SD with the archived version. All-in-all still more convenient than physical, but not ideal.

Those SDs really do fill up quickly...

I've just got a 128GB card, the trick is to just delete the games you're not playing ;p

I feel slightly targeted that I somehow sparked a “who filled their SD card” convo but yeah y’all, I like games and I buy in two regions. It is often less expensive to buy digital as well.

Considering I am past the 400 + DLC/patches game mark and only about 160 or so (I haven’t counted recently or worked on my database so that number is low) physical, it’s not that weird that I filled up a 1TB card and internal storage. I do refuse to buy a new one until at least a 1.5 TB comes out so for now I have to delete games as I beat them, which I don’t like to do.

My 400 GB is full, it'll be nice when the 1TB drops to be cheap enough to buy. It doesn't help that a lot of space is dedicated to games with giant patches even if physical a la Doom, Borderlands etc

I have a 256 card I've almost filled, but I only buy digital for eShop digital games. So, in actuality, most of the 256 is taken up by games like DOOM and Spyro that I have physical but still needed substantial downloads. Pretty frustrating.

Lol - obviously you're not a "But I'm playing ALL these games" kind of person. That's ok. No-one's judging. You do you. Live your best life.

*Quietly weeps beneath mountain of terabytes backlog.

For realz tho - I'm sporting a bulging 256gb card. There's plenty on there yet to be played, and yet when it comes to finding room for a new digital purchase somehow the anguish is still so strong.

Kinda hilarious to think that Jax is holding out for a 2tb card that he'll fill the second his download speed will allow. Gonna need 3 of them minimum by the time they ever drop.
