Switch consoles dont have region lock so it functions the same.

Difference is in the charger and warranty. If got issue you send back to seller instead of maxsoft repairs

How much did you get it for?
*
RM1699. Its ok seller just agree to refund me.

Ok, thanks for the info. Mine is not JP set then, as the box isn't in Japanese. There's a logo saying that it's 'Asia' set, whatever that means. No Maxsoft sticker on the box though, but there is a leaflet inside the box saying that I should contact MM Soft Sdn Bhd (Maxsoft?) for warranty issues, in addition to listing other companies/distributors for other countries e.g Singapore, etc.
*
Yheah that's under maxsoft. And iirc they also send back to SG maxsoft for repair and stuff.
How much did you buy yours?

Yeah, exactly. Fortunately I found it and thought the price was okay-ish considering the situation now. So jumped on it. Enjoying it so far. Still have 1 unused voucher. Debating whether to get Mario Kart or some other JRPG with it.

Glad you're having fun xD

Anyone know where can get reasonable price Switch lite or switch...regret did not buy b4 MCO sad.gif Hiaz..
*
Might wan to scoop around those local pshysical store and ask around. Most major store are either out of stock or price jack up. Everywhere is out of stock not just malaysia. So price is jacked up at this period. Better to wait or just buy it now and enjoy it. Ofcoz that only applies if you have extra cash laying around.

Ya true.. if able get below 900 still ok... not those 1200-1300... have no idea why still got ppl buy while they jack up the price till so high..
*
Just wan to enjoy it while you have time. Since MCO has nth to do most people are stuck at home. For lite i saw some deal around 1049-1199. You can try to search around. But new stock are all increasing. Better get it than late. Price wont be going down anytime soon imo. Since everywhere is shortage and scalper buying them non stop.

The price wont magiclly go down instantly in 1 night. After MCO is lifted. Will probaly go on for another few months. Estimate another 2-3 months for them to go back.

So if i were and have the extra cash lying around just get one. Or seek around for used unit if you dont mind.

Or you can wait till MCO is lifted. And see those people selling there used and panic buy unit. Or just buy one now and work harder later on. Ofcoz as i mention earlier. Only buy it now if you have extra cash lying around. No idea if they will extend MCO for another 2 weeks or not.

Agree~ just wait until then. I saw even used unit in Amazon is selling around 230-240USD. The only concern worried is whether it passed custom or not..

Lol wouldnt even bother. Better just get local set with that price range. Since warranty would be easier. Just went shopee/lazada. Most price tag are around 1149-1199 for now.

Guys,
Too tempted for switch right now due to ACNH.
Looking for new one but the price boleh buat sakit kepala.
So was thinking used unit. Mudah.my or caraosell better if want to hunt for used unit?
*
Better join those facebook group and wait for seller to post there unit for sales. Can arrange COD as well.
Carousell only deal through buyer proctection. If seller ask you to bank in to personal account just ignore them. Just ingore mudah.
As what andrewtho said. Just be rational and check the price. Dun fall for anything that is "too good to be true". Way too much scammer lurking around.

Also used unit are not far away from a new switch. Espicially those sohai selling v1 at 1.7k-2k for whatever fuking reason.
Buy now enjoy now. Ofcoz as i mention before. Only do that w hen you have extra cash lying around. No one knows when MCO will be lift. Since most people no income at this period.


Also impulse restock lite for 1099. Both maxsoft and japan set with different free gift at 1099. Better go check out before its sold out.
And they're selling at 2099/2399 for diffrent bundle as well. As always price wont be going down for another few months. Even with MCO lifted. The price also wont magicially go down in 1 night. Cheers

Thank you both of you.
Look at it again, i think price for new one and used one not far of much.
Not seeing any used one under 1000🤭

Btw will keep looking for better deals.
Arrrrgh why ACNH is waaaay too cool.
*
Go around shopee. I saw some deal label "raya promo" around 1899-1999. If that's within your price range.
Just ignore otakuya this store. biggrin.gif

Is it safe buy in lazada? Someone sell it 899 and manage to add into my cart...but it is pretty new shop...no idea should give it a shot or not...
*
Lol never. You already said it yourself its fishy. Just go impulse. They're doing pre order for RM1099 only.
Shopee is also a good choice.

Why not Otakuya?

Was looking at his page on Shopee but hesitated and went with others instead.

Bad after sales services. Pretty much only reply before/after payment. After that will ignore you and give alot shit reason to say he's busy.

Many complain on fb group also. There was 1 case on the buyer receive a switch v2 and notice battery bulging. Msg him no reply untill tthe buyer send a complain to shopee. Then otakuya baru reply rofl.

14/3 receive found out issue on 18/3. Msg the guy no reply untill sudmit complain to shopee then reply on April.

Otakuya bad as f. When Animal Crossing came out those who buy from them more than 2 weeks only get their game. Won't even refund.

This is what I heard a lot in the discord group on Malaysia server.
*
I heard 2 stories. Is otakuya straight cancel there order and claim no more stock but jackup there price. And another version was the who pre order or buy it before the price increase. He just didnt pos them out but keep jacking up the price and label "in stock"

Woah thats bad. No customer should endure these kind of bad service. Thanks for the heads up.

Oh yeah i forgot to mention. Otakuya claims that docking your switch will overcharge your switch. So that's why the battery bulge up.
While nintendo offical says this

I can clearly confirmed it that the battery will not bulge up when docking overnight. We put some serious endurance test in the set and battery. So no issue on that matter.
Im a service enginner for nintendo switch production line in kedah.
There are 2 production lines in factory in sg petani kedah under foxconn subsidaries company.
And since mco, production output is zero. So there will be market shortage after this.
Output perday should be about 2200++ sets ( the grey units).
Even tho i play/testing with switch everyday, still i have to buy my own set.
Hahaha.

Thanks for the clear info!

Heard them saying maxsoft force to shutdown due to locked down at SG. Now no stock supply till june?
