Nintendo Switch Bargains Thread

I like all those games you mention and I'll love Sunshine but from what I played from Hats, I was like this is fine, I'll play it some day when nothing else to play.

I have on Xbox, so will come with me on Series X and so on

The Game Collection have started a Bank Holiday sale, with a handful of recent-ish Switch games being discounted:

https://www.thegamecollection.net/sale?platform=546 

Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy for £21, Burnout Paradise Remastered for £25 and Brain Training for £18 are decent deals, I think.

If you've got a PS4, Burnout Paradise is going for £17 on there, so I'd maybe avoid that on Switch unless it's your only option.

£17 seems expensive still as I'm sure it's often a fiver on XBL that surely same on PSN when that happens

Official Neon Joycon pair for £35 on Amazon!

These individually sell for more than this at CEX!

Super Mario 3D All Stars for £42.85 on ShopTo - a good seven quid cheaper than the other retailers so far:

ShopTo website has been forked all day. I'm still undecided though about getting or not urghh

If you can find


Also, Annapurna has a sale on at the moment on the eShop which I would say Donut County, What Remains of Edith Finch, Saynora Wild Hearts, Florence, Kentucky Route Zero are all worth checking out maybe even Telling Lies but I've not played that

Good stuff with the Labo deal, I'll have to see if I can get a couple of sets.

Another bargain - Contra: Rogue Corps is £5.99 on PS4, Xbox One and Switch at GAME. Not available online for Switch, but it's in stock at my local store. Maybe it'll be at yours too:

Somebody else recommended Kentucky Route Zero so I might well give that a blast.

If I had to guess The Lady would like it more than you

...yep I've looked into it and what it is and that was a baaaaaaaad recommendation!

Not really it's a highly regarded game on offer from a publisher with a good track record

How so? I've heard it's a solid adventure game - always meant to check it out myself.

I mean for me personally!  Looking at it, it seems to be very choice-dependant.  Also: very surreal.  I don't get on so much with directors (usually would-be auteurs) doing weird for the sake of weird, or for the sake of 'examining the human psyche', or something like that.

The 'somebody else' on the other hand gets hot and flustered at the mention of David Lynch, so I can see why it would work for her!

So I was right, that the lady would like it

She loathes David Lynch.

Ohh who's someone else then?

I have multiple game-playing female friends! This particular one I met in a queue for Welcome to Night Vale live because her mate said, 'In a moment, I'm watching this guy play Smash Bros.' (3DS version). Still my favourite meeting of someone ever.

Both Mario Kart Live Home Circuit sets are £86.85 each on base.com, £13 off the RRP:

That's a lot more palatable that price, hope it stays that cheap as I'd rather see a few reviews before forking out for it.

FIFA 20 Legacy Edition for a fiver at ASDA:

https://groceries.asda.com/product/nintendo-switch-games/nintendo-switch-legacy-edition-fifa-20/1000180895688

Ni No Kuni on the eShop of course for £8

Also 20% off on eBay at the moment including Game Collection who have put Demons Souls up at £75 but with discount is £60, so they may have jacked up something like Age of Calamity to £50 but would £40 with discount then other games of course

Anybody who doesn't hate JRPGs (which seems to be about half you lot) should be picking it up at that price. This is a gem - and at £8 it's like buying a diamond at a fish stall for the price of a salmon.

Ah yes, that well-known adage. My old mum always used to say that. (My new mum doesn't.)
