I wonder when Switch 15.0.0 will happen, generally we get 2 major system updates a year where the first is in March/April and the second is in September but September is coming to a close.

Best deal for Switch EVER!!!

Nintendo Switch OLED for $286 on Amazon via Amazon UK Global. Free Shipping means it's $302 shipped after tax if you're in a state like mine with 5.5% sales tax.

You'll just need a US power supply which is super cheap. And you likely already have one.

Go go go!

The Neon OLED is even $2 cheaper at $284!!! Comes to $299.66 after 5.5% sales tax (will vary by state, obviously). Use your Amazon VISA to earn another 5% back on purchase.

That's a grand total of $84 off MSRP + tax after discount and CC rewards

@JaxonH At least some can benefit from the absolute state pound sterling is in

Although I'm not the biggest Switch collector on this site, today's Amazon delivery should put me over 1k games in the Switch physical collection. Over the past five years I've been cycling games in and out of my physical collection. I probably would be the biggest collector for the platform on this site if I didn't do that, but I prefer keeping those games I enjoy playing (and intend to play again) rather than just having a box sit on a shelf.

-sigh-

I have never loved, and at the same time, hated a gaming console as much as I do the Switch.

Why did the joy-cons build quality have to be such garbage?

Love that it is dlc. Will pick up next payday. I guess I will start an un modded run on switch soon.

No problems on my end.

Man, I think I'm getting sucked back into Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak. Checked out the Title Update 2 content, and Holy moly there's so much new stuff added between Title Update 1 and 2.

Like, there's more content for post game then there was in the main story of Sunbreak. There's Afflicted Monster Investigations, a shop that sells rare mantles for Afflicted Coins, there's Qurios Crafting for armor with a whole RNG system (already got +19 Defense on an armor piece at the cost of losing 1 pt in Focus... done), Qurios Crafting for weapons with a whole slot mechanic, there's layered weapons now that work exactly like layered armor, there's new Master Rank Event Quests, new Follower Quests, new Support Survey Quests, new Anomoly Quests, Anomoly Investigations that rank up to Level 120 now, there's new Urgent Quests, like 7 new monsters- Lucent Nargacuga, Gold Rathian, Silver Rathalos, Seething Bazelguese, Risen Chameleos, Flaming Espinas and Violet Mizutsune, there's a new Arena with Forlorn Arena recreated from the 3rd gen...

And that's on top of all the content that already existed in the game from launch, which was like 250 Quests. It's overwhelming and I love it. Took down an Afflicted Great Izuchi and it was so much fun.

Oh, and armor can now be upgraded even further, and there's awesome new DLC layered armor. I'm rockin this Fall setup but with shades instead of a scarf, and it goes hard

'Grats on the 1k - that's quite the milestone. I'm nearly as impressed by the fact you've kept track of the number as I am in awe of the library you must have. I would like to know how big mine is, but can't find the time to catalogue it properly, and mine is likely no more than a third of yours.

Who here is a bigger Switch collector than you, do you think?

Also interested to know if your collecting of Switch games is mirrored by your collecting of Switch hardware. I currently have 8 different models.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

@shinobi87 Thank you for sharing that Argos tip and link. Only spotted it late tonight but they're still accepting orders so hopefully I'll get one.

Edit: I see Amazon UK are taking pre-order a for it as well now.

@Magician ok so how big is your game room? I’m in a smaller space (game room wise not overall) and the the lack of display real estate is making me rethink my whole setup. (That and I apparently seriously underestimated how much stuff I have in here. ) and I am not even a collector.

I've learned to really make the most of my space.

I literally just bought a drill gun, bit and driver set, digital level and stud finder, probably spent $60 in total (super cheap investment worth its weight in gold) and grabbed a 6 foot shelf and two 3 foot shelves. Gotta take advantage of vertical space if you wanna maximize.

@JaxonH Awesome setup, I’m especially a fan of that Metroid section!

I really want to set up my own area to display my collection. Don’t have the space for that yet but one day I will do it for sure.

@JaxonH Wow! That's a dope setup!

@StarPoint
It's fun setting up a collection on display. Just pace yourself. It doesn't grow overnight. It takes years, bit by bit.

@MsJubilee
Thanks. It's a constant battle with running out of space. Have to keep rearranging and finding creative ways to do more with less. Every square inch matters.

The trap you can fall into is overcrowding. I learned the hard way, displays actually look worse when things aren't spaced properly and are crowded too close together. There's always the temptation to crowd things closer together, fit more on a shelf, but I've learned it's better to box something up and not display it if the alternative is overcrowding. Cause that just makes the entire shelf look bad.
