ICYMI, Nintendo store is currently having sale

https://www.nintendo.com/games/sales-and-deals/#june-sale/

Just bought Just Dance there since it's quite heavily discounted in my opinion biggrin.gif

I don't have a nintendo switch yet. Planning to buy soon. Can I create a nintendo account and purchase the game first? Then when I get my switch only i download it?

I'm not really sure actually. I created my account from my Switch the first time I turned it on. Purchased from within switch itself which started the game download immediately. You can try I guess and report back biggrin.gif

LOL. I guess cannot. I created a Nintendo account and they ask me to login using the eShop from Switch. rclxub.gif

How often do we have this kind of sale? Is this a monthly thing?

And I will need to create a account using USA region in order to buy those discounted games right?

I just ordered mine from Impulse @ shopee as well on 25 June for RM1299 with 10% coins cashback too. Maxsoft Set
Price is around RM1169 spent.
Paired it together with Ring Fit Adventure for Rm309 as well.

So total paid for RM1578 (applied shopee coins for additional discount)
Feel very bargain with the price on the promotion as 2nd hand switch almost cost similar too

This will be the first nintendo system i bought for myself since Gameboy  laugh.gif

I wanted to buy when 12am but forgot to topup my shopee wallet. Once topup is done, the price went back up to RM1399 already. Not even 5 mins. So the RM1299 price maybe for few units only.

Then I waited until about 12.30am the price drop to RM1349.

Want ask. Are there any kids game suitable for really small kids? My daughter only 5 years old so still cannot read properly. Pity her stuck at home for 18 months so thinking of buying a switch for her so she can play games too (excuse so that the father can buy one switch la). Anyway, got any suitable games for kids that age that don't really need a lot of reading instructions and stuff and a bit educational too?

My daughter is 4 and she enjoys playing kirby star allies.

Anyone know if Nintendo switch will usually have promo on 11.11?

I found one for RM1279 Maxsoft set on Lowyat, not sure if this is the lowest price yet. Should I hold on to my purchase ?
*
I'm selling mine. Interested? Neon Maxsoft set from Impulse gaming. Receipt will be provided. Receipt date 25.06.2021. So warranty should be until 25.06.2022.

RM1100. All perfect condition. Tempered glass on since day 1. Only play docked. I upgraded to OLED version.

Thinking to get one on 11.11 as well, should go for OLED or standard one? hmm.gif

If you play docked all the time go for standard one will do. Totally zero benefit vs OLED.

Hi newbie here. I want to buy a Nintendo switch for my 3 kids (10/7/5).

Which model should I buy? And what about the games? Do I need to buy them separately?

Tq in advance.

Wait for Switch 2. Should be launching soon.
