Nintendo Adds Multiple New Games To Its Switch Voucher Program (North America)

Hmmm…. Tempting….. RPG wouldn’t be bad digital as I doubt my kiddos will wanna play that, but def need to get Wonder on cart so they can play on their switches too.

Really wish I could share digital games with my family without adjusting primary console and such….. would be a very nice feature!

I’d like to know whether they’ll cover the Baten Kaitos two-pack.

Have one left and was thinking of using it for Super Mario Bros. Wonder. 🤔

Maybe once there's more details.

SMBW and SMRPG are potential choices for the one I still have, but I'm willing to wait until something else even more enticing gets announced before May next year.

@VoodooTrumpet That’s a bandai namco game so that’s a no.

I’ve always regretted buying digital. Even with the savings, it’s not worth it to me.

I need rpg physical! I need it!

My wallet cried a little during the direct this morning. Hahaha!

Gonna wait to see if there is another $70 game first...

@Dm9982 That would be nice. The only way that kind of works would be to set one of the kids as primary, and then disconnect from the internet/turn on airplane mode. Then a second Switch could play it at the same time while connected to the internet.

I went ahead and got two vouchers for the sake of getting Wonder and RPG, but I am somewhat tempted to get a physical copy of RPG at some point too

@mattesdude Yeah, and I’ve done that before but it’s a hassle. I think with just a little checking for IP address/location and such, like Netflix is doing with their accounts, that Nintendo (or any of the companies) could implement a system where if you buy a game digital you can share it with others on your home ip network.

Especially for those listed under the family plan of NSO. We’ve got 3 switches at my house - mine, the wife’s and my eldest daughter has one. Hoping to get our youngest one this fall for her birthday. I largely signed up for the NSO+ family plan just because it was cheaper than buying 2+ copies of the animal crossing and Mario kart dlcs, and the N64/GBA/Genesis games are a bonus.

Family plans should most definitely be able to share digital games. Would give me WAAAAY more incentive to buy Mario, Pikmin, Pokémon and such digital. But as it currently stands I buy those physical so the girls can enjoy em too without having to take my switch. 😂

@ModdedInkling SMRPG, Mario Wonder, and Pikmin 4 are all $60. Warioware Move It is $50 (making it a very strange thing to buy with a voucher)

@Dm9982 Same situation here. I tend to to get physical as we have 3 switches. I gave my son a Switch for his birthday and put myself on there so he can play digital games as me...even though we are all on the family plan like you.
Ugh.

@Kynwal Honestly I’d even be fine with a gift system like Steam has - when you’re done with the game just gift it to a family member so they can have the digital rights for awhile. But I do believe Nintendo should look into a family digital management system, hopefully they’re reading this!

Tempting, but the physical (esrb) version usually cheaper than digital in my country, like physycal zelda totk is only about $46.5 compared to $70 for the digital version in eshop.

Just used two vouchers to buy SMW and SMRPG! 😌

Detective Pikachu and WarioWare are each $50 already. It's good to have more options to unload the vouchers in case they're not used on the next console, but listing these games makes it seem like they're tricking people into getting digital.

@Bret
Yeah, a $50 game with a voucher is an absolute waste of money.

If we get another 3D Mario game, or we get Metroid Prime 4, I definitely feel like they will be $70.
