Nintendo Switch thread - Part 2

No worries, you need one that is PD capable, usually PD chargers will have a USB-C out port, so you will also need a USB-C to USB-C cable.

1 thing to note is that not all type C charger comes with USB PD capability. For eg the Ravpower 26800mah without USB PD will charge the Switch at 10w (or less cant remember exact) but the other 26800mah with USB PD will charge it at 18w/30w.

Honestly I just use a xiaomi power bank pro.. It maintains the charge or charges slowly when I'm playing, and when I turn to sleep and let it charge its very fast

Maintain the charge isnt gd enough. Powerbank without USB PD such as Xiaomi power bank pro might be able to charge the Switch slowly (maybe 1-2% increase in 10 min) while playing non cpu/gpu intensive game but power bank with PD will increase the Switch capacity like 10% in few mins even when playing intensive game.

Here's how to choose your Switch charger:

I have the Ravpower without PD.
Works well, it do not charge up the switch when i am playing but rather it slows down the discharge significantly which i feel is good enough for me.
Of cos it still charges quite quickly when it is in sleep mode via the USB C output.

been using the switch or close to 1.5mths now, truthfully, did not find the need for power bank yet,

maybe my daily commute not that long journey. normally full charge will last me my daily game then when i go back, can either charge play or dock to play.

BOTW explorer edition is on Lazada at 73.90 before discounts.

I got the explorer edition and the guide book is notc really a full guide but more like explanation of the lore and guide to the 1st few hours of the game.

I usually buy my eShop games from the South Africa or Mexico stores as they are cheaper.

But today both sites will not accept my Singapore credit card.

Anyone else have this issue?

I can still use PayPal on the Mexico store but South Africa doesn't have this option.

Whoa nice. I thought now Christmas season so everything will be slower. Hope I can get it today!

What games did you get! So far I only planning to get BOTW and Splatoon but haven't ordered yet. Might wait till Christmas to see if got promo codes or any better deals. Doesn't matter if its EU version right? I thought no region lock so you can play games from any region!

Do not buy the Explorer's edition from Lazada. Mine came with 'rabbit's ear' and the corners were damaged. I had to return it.

Inside the stuff also damage?
For 73.90, the game plus the extra stuff is quite worth it

I did not open the box at all cos the box itself was damaged. I still have the pictures though.

And the issue was also no additional wrapping was done like putting bubble wrap or additional layer of film wrapping.

They practically put the item in an envelope with a slip of coupon and shipped the item.
