Nintendo Switch thread - Part 2

[htngwilliam]

Guys, if u walk into Qisahn shop and buy, is it same price as their Lazada promo? Or will the Lazada price be cheaper?

 

[lordlad0]

I just bought stardew valley (hoping multi-player will come on switch soon) and lovers in a dangerous spacetime for my gf and me to play tgt and I've been really impressed with lovers in a dangerous spacetime considered I got it at only $15 in the eshop.
Looking forward to buy Overcooked and Death Squared next!
Do you guys think they'll ever make these games online co-op one day cause most times I'm alone but I still want people to play with.
And are there actually any online co-op games already available?

you will need to pay to play online coming next year on Nintendo network...similiar to PS+ and Xbox Live Gold...

What do you get from the special edition games actually? Is it worth all the extra money?

Art book, maps, Nintendo Switch case... depends on what the publisher include inside the Special Edition...

Lazada can apply promo code, pay by card for rebates and use shopback...You go Qisahn and check whether you can get that price on Lazada after all the discounts...

So what is the issue? He asked for co-op games and you reply like this?

What I meant is without the Lazada discount.

Portal Knights
Splatoon 2
Nine Parchment
Phantom Breaker (online will be next year)

What are you trying to compare?

Example Qisahn sells on Lazada at $xxx, wil it be the same as going to the store and paying $xxx?

If yes, it will depend if the promotion discount on lazada is paid by lazada or by qisahn...

I still don't get it why you do not want to include discount that you can apply on lazada and not on going to the shop to pay by cash...

he said he want online coop games..

i am just reminding him pay to online is going to be a thing next year for nintendo network.......which most people seems to forget.

So if anyone ask where to purchase something online, you will remind them that the Government will be increasing tax next year? Reported for trolling...

Only small impact...How many people here buy most of their Nintendo Switch games on Amazon?

For other items, such as electronics, clothings and boardgames are definitely much more affected compared to buying Nintendo Switch games...

Also MSRP for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 SE in the USA is US$99.99...So now you have to pay $95 which is still below MSRP and does not need to chalk up US$125 which is sometimes unnecessary purchases to get free shipping, and you are still not happy paying below MSRP?

Like I say, other than Zelda, Fire Emblem Warriors and Xenoblade Chronicles 2, how many other Special Edition Nintendo Switch games are you trying to buy from Amazon USA?

MSRP is MSRP. What actually matters is what I pay. If still got free shipping I would've paid US$82 for the collector instead of US$95.
You don't need to make unnecessary purchases. I usually combine with friends and buy 2 LE to get free shipping.
Also I buy quite a bit of LE games, not only for Switch but also for PS4 and PSV previously. Example of upcoming one is Ni No Kuni 2.

yes...especially from amazon now that free shipping is no longer a thing.

also mate, you have rage issues.

So again how big of an impact is it on a Nintendo Switch owner?other than zelda, fire emblem warriors and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 which are already released and would have been part of FSSG if you had pre-ordered like almost everyone, how much more of an impact on a Nintendo Switch gamer?

Now no more free shipping, you don't want to pay shipping, no one is stopping you...it is not like the end of the world...

What's this "Amazon now no more free shipping" thing you guys keep talking about? Did Amazon specifically say that the policy is cancelled? Specifically this one:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?docId=1001225901

As Pyre posted a couple of pages back (here), free shipping is still available.

So is there really an announced change in Amazon's policy, or someone didn't get free shipping (due to ineligible items or Amazon's system bug - very common, as I have pointed out in the PS VR thread too, similar to Pyre's experience) and started a rumor?

They really need to have a switch version of Nino Kuni Damn that game was awesome.

The Amazon page about the free shipping over $125 policy I linked above is still accessible leh. And the chat transcript Pyre posted clearly showed that the cso acknowledged the free shipping is still in place.

Maybe that guy who said it's cancelled didn't clarify properly? Was there a chat transcript? Amazon cso handles many countries, perhaps one of them didn't check specifically for SG (the offer is only for Mexico and Singapore)?

It was reported on channelnewsasia and mothership as they contacted Amazon to verify the issue...Amazon came out with Prime for Singapore which is giving free shipping from Amazon USA for minimum spending of S$60...
