32,378 yen including tax from yodobashi. bring passport, get 8% tax rebate. wah shiok . if pay using CC, another 5% rebate.

¥29,980 without tax. That's honestly super cheap compared to SG (even when you minus the bundled games and amiibo)

If I ship from amazon I'll most likely need to pay 7% GST (unless amazon declares it as something else but that will never happen). Japan also has this new law about export of Li-ion batteries? Some guys on reddit had issues with tenso shipping out the switch.

Planning to get a Switch, is it worth getting? Many games released alr? Is $599 on Shopee & Qoo10 the cheapest deal ah?

Not worth it to get now since not that much games released yet. The price now is like an early adopter tax. Unless you're super into Zelda cause BOTW is really damn awesome.

This is my opinion as a switch owner play his first Zelda game.

Had the same issue with battery draining even when on sleep mode or totally turned off.
My battery was defective. You should continue to observe and call up Maxsoft if it persists.
They gave me a replacement for the main console which is good. The downside is your saved games will be gone.

Initially i have this problem. the switch shows 89% after fully charged to 100% and powered off.

Then i monitor the discharge for sleep mode, it was at 98% after 8hrs. so i kept my switch on sleep mode instead.

But recently i tried power off after charge to 100% again. after 24hrs, it's still at 100%. :s22::s13:

I guess you are on sleep mode?

And did you close the game you playing?

It wasn't on sleep mode I turned off the power, I think I closed the game before I turn it off. I just send it to Maxsoft hoping that they will send me a new one (I hope). But my Zelda saved game T_T

No battery issues now.
It used to run flat through the night in sleep mode.

However I did notice now my left joy con has sync issues. But they didn't change my joy cons.
I can't be sure if it's just that I didn't notice it as much when I was using the original console (with the battery issues).

Thanks for the reply. Though my right joy con is having lag issues or disconnecting issues. I just sent my unit down to Maxsoft. Will take one day or so to see the results. I miss my switch already

I just sent it to them. They will need to verify the issue on their end so they'll need my switch to replicate it. I hope they'll give me a new one by tomorrow
