@imgrowinglegs but.. Would you even buy those games even if they weren't on a PS Plus sale? Paying to being able to pay for sales. If everything is just a perk, you're paying for something allright
@imgrowinglegs No, not really, PC/Switch here. That just means you've been paying for Indies on PS that you could've had on Switch
Also: no HAMSTER ACA discounts in US/EU, so just in JP? Edit: never mind, I see they are up in EU so will probably also come to US. I'll probably get Alpha Mission II with that 40% discount
@Al_Godoy Change country on accounts.nintendo.com to US and put it on your wishlist on the eShop. Switch back to Mexico and it will be available to buy in your eShop wishlist.
@Ernest_The_Crab Well, NoE isn't all that. Except UK we didn't have any physical Nintendo point rewards. Plus years of neglect regarding 1st party (physical or not at all) releases that came out in Japan and NoA but skipping NoE.
Besides, Switch is region free, so although you aren't used to it, with a bit of effort you can still make use of these sales
Wow! A meaty discount on MK8DLX, Splatoon 2, ARMS and DOOM, it looks like Nintendo really changed since WiiU times? (they are 29 euro in the South-African eShop btw).
Wow awesome, it worked! Apparently wishlists are same per region and not your country. Sorry for doubting you @rushiosan, just seemed weird it didn't work for a EU wishlist item.
@John_Deacon account region of course. Just like the gold coins, they are kept separate. Although this was PAL region to MX and back, I'll try USA specifically and back now.
I got the Cyber Gadget grip for Switch more then a year ago, and it's awesome (just like its 3DS brother before it). Slides in the dock with the Joy-con attachments still on just fine. It was $30 from Amazon Japan, so perhaps a bit pricey. Though not as pricey as this one it seems, with $17 extra shipping to EU.
Damnit, just bought this on Steam a few days ago. Has very good reviews there. I shall now, again, think twice when buying multiplayer focused games on Steam. Just didn't expect this at all.
I still have the PS3 HD version unplayed on (imported) physical disc and Move controllers ready to use. I've not yet read anywhere how the controls compare to the Switch edition, if anyone can shine some light on that I'd be very curious to find out
Yeah, Paradox game on Switch = instant buy. Sadly I don't see them doing it any time soon. Here's hoping a quality team is willing to port it for a fair price on behalf of Paradox.
Weird they let the New 3DS die so soon while it's the best of the series. A friend wanted to buy one for his nephew, but only saw inferior 2DS's in shops. Time for a New New 3DS.
Just to be clear, a certain percentage of LAUNCH models such as mine seem to have this problem. I just put a bit of tape on it for now, but I must say it is disappointing being an early adopter once again.
ALSO: I've taken great care of my unit, never fell down and used it about 70% docked. Twitter is full of it, don't attack the consumer who has done nothing wrong, thanks.
@holygeez03 As seen in this IGN (yeah, I know) video the 4-person local multiplayer is NOT splitscreen, or is the 'party mode' the cause of that? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riOZGyPfQ2o (after 27m)
It seems that 2-player is splitscreen (in the Nintendo Treehouse videos), so you could get more tactical in gameplay. And 4-player is considered a party-mode, since that is not splitscreen. Anyway, I'll pre-order it right now on the eShop because that's fine by me
@holygeez03 Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out, I was assuming local mp to be on one screen like this in Ultra (which was very fun): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2YuAKwcLTjA
@Dethmunk Have you played Ultra Smash? One court (there was only one), many character models/move sets and basic gameplay are the same. I have no problems with it, since it now has a lot more gameplay, environments and actual bosses.
@JHDK What are you talking about? Because he supposedly is from middle class, he can't rap about the many problems facing the US today? This is not the place to get political about it imo.
"Nintendo has a philosophy and we’ve spoken to them a lot. The one thing is that there’s never been any pressure regarding dates, there’s been nothing but support."
That's one way of putting it I think the momentum for most sales has passed on for now on Switch, people have been wanting this since Switch's release while the developers have been making promises after promises to their fanbase. But who knows, we might've a new Stardew sales-wise on our hands after all.
@OorWullie Thanks, I keep forgetting these actually do let you change AR. But since they are stretched in the review I was inclined to think otherwise. Are you satisfied with the current screen filters and no pixelmode in Bad Dudes though?

@joedick there's a few Neo Geo games, yeah. Check NL's EU eShop update!

Re: Review: The Messenger (Switch eShop)
@John_Deacon @rushiosan Swapping regions with same NNiD gives the same effect: no overlapping wishlists.
Re: Review: The Messenger (Switch eShop)
@rushiosan The eShop seems to have seperate wishlists unfortunately.
Re: Streets Of Rage 4 Is Really Happening, Thanks To The Team Behind The Wonder Boy Reboot
Yeah, where's Golden Axe on Switch? Will it be released through Sega AGES series?
Re: Review: Prison Architect: Nintendo Switch Edition (Switch eShop)
Just wait 30 days and it will be 30-40% off.
Re: Nintendo Was "Pumped" When Blizzard Pitched Diablo III For The Switch
Isn't the plural of Joy-con spelled Joy-con? Just like amiibo can already be plural.
Re: Nintendo Switch Nindies Showcase Summer 2018 Announced For 28th August
Here's hoping Starwhal gets a release on Switch anytime soon, perfect couch multiplayer game.

Re: Nintendo Reveals New Switch Bundle Exclusive To Walmart In The US
Smart bundle, so people will buy the must-haves BotW and Odyssey separately. Although I love Aces' gameplay.
Re: Motion Twin Apologises For Frame Rate Drops In Switch Version Of Dead Cells
I'm wondering if these percentages aren't a lot higher when playing docked, since people aren't specifiying which way they are playing.
Re: Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! Will Receive Drum Set And Physical Release In Europe
So can I just use my Gamecube Bongos together with the Gamecube adapter on my Switch?

Re: Review: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Switch)
Should be a 9, amazingly charming game.
Re: Poll: Is Your Nintendo Switch Cracking Under The Pressure?
We're talking launch models here, I won't be surprised if 25% have them. Waiting for cloud save until guarantee case swap.
Re: Poll: Is Your Nintendo Switch Cracking Under The Pressure?
Got it near the powerbutton as well (launchmodel), i just put a bit of tape on it :x

This is something I'd want digitally! Can't wait for the kickstarter vertical grip to arrive in October
Re: Titan Quest Will Support Local Co-Op From Launch On Nintendo Switch
This was an awesome game on PC, especially with co-op back in the day. Very interested in how the Switch port will run!
Re: Review: Lumines Remastered (Switch eShop)
Does not support the use of the left thumbstick, which seems pretty weird to me since I'm not always a fan of the 4-button 'D-pad' on the Joy-con...

Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is Unveiled For Switch, Every Previous Character Returns
@MikeW Same.. no story mode, so I'll just stick to the version with no enhancements on Wii U
Re: Review: Just Shapes & Beats (Switch eShop)
Really loving this! Also, perhaps a bit less ethical but it's 7.5 euro ($10) in the MX eShop!
Re: Nintendo Download: 7th June (Europe)
Just Shapes and Beats from the US/MX eShop for me, already having a blast with it
Re: Review: Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection (Switch)

Why is this $58 in Europe, Capcom?

Re: Review: Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition (Switch)
Felt a bit boring to me, but can understand the addictive gameplay.
P.S. Don't let Dagmar read this review.
