Topic: Your Latest Switch Purchase

Got the Cowabunga collection the past friday. Had a great nostalgia run with the SNES Turtles in Time. Then I tried out the arcade games and the SEGA game.
Couple of things that surprised me: How much smoother the arcade games were than the SNES title, and how much the SNES title added to Turtles in Time. Seeing as how the first arcade title was in '89, it really took over a half-decade (not century) for home consoles to catch up to that. The experience of playing Turtles in Time arcade and SNES titles and Hyperstone Heist was interesting, since I saw how much there was in sharing assets between the three games, and how much they remixed the levels and bosses.
Currently going through the first NES game and I finally understand why people hate the water level in it.
I thank the developers for including the strategy guides in the collection.

ONE PIECE: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition ( $4 easy pick)

Cowabunga Collection.

Just bought bridge constructor portal. Its on sale for 3 euro 74 cent down from 15 euro. Didn't bother with the physical release

I picked up Switch Sports for the wife and a double dose of Turtle Power for myself in Shredder's Revenge and the Cowabunga Collection.

Splatoon 3. Actually only happen to cost $20 for me, so I'm pretty happy with how this purchase panned out.

Prinny Presents NIS Classics Vol 3.

@Ralizah Firstly, HOW DID YOU GET IT FOR $20?!

Secondly, glad you're jumping on the Splatoon wagon as well! I plan on getting it sometime very soon (maybe even tomorrow if I'm lucky) as well so maybe we'll come across each other in matches, who knows XD

@Ralizah How bro!? If all works out, hope to get my copy tomorrow.

@Fizza @Snatcher

I've bought all the Splatoon games at launch to date. Very fun series. I think I have you guys in my friends list, so I should probably see y'all in the lobby.

So, base price for the game is $60. I gameshare with my nephew. I was originally gonna grab it physically (which was how I bought both previous games), but he didn't want to have to wait to borrow it off of me, so we agreed to a 40/20 split, and I'd have the game on my account.

So that's $40 left.

Then I redeemed Microsoft Rewards points I had for Amazon credit, and coverted those into a $20 reward code.

Thus, only cost me $20 out of pocket. Even less if you count the double gold coins ($6 equivalent) I got for preordering digitally, although I'll just count that off my next digital purchase instead, since they can't be applied to the purchase that gives them to you.

@Ralizah Wow! What A deal!

We should set up a NL team if we have the players.

@Ralizah I have @Snatcher but I don't believe I have you. What's your Switch username again? I'll be able to check whether I have you added or not by it (and if not, I'll give you my FC as soon as I get home from school today).

@Fizza Same as on here. My FC is in my sig, so just add me if you don't already have me in your list

Ah, the good old internet practice of pretending you got a great deal but really you paid regular price, just used different currencies (e.g. vouchers/loyalty point scheme). Gotta love it 😜

Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Pac-Man World Re-Pac (both physical)

Pac-Man World Re-Pac
Splatoon 3
Xenoblade Chronicles 3
Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon
Preordered Pokemon Scarlet

Splatoon 3, physical

@WoomyNNYes Those are some nice shades.

Splatoon 3, only played some Turf Wars and so far it’s fun

I’ve just picked up The Lost Child, it’s always been on my wish list but I’ve never pulled the trigger, but it’s a fiver at 90% off. I hear it’s a fairly average SMT style dungeon crawler.
