Hi everyone, just got a nintendo switch enhanced version recently biggrin.gif

Just wondering, for the online / region of nintendo account, should i set US / Canada / Mexico / South Africa?

Last time 3ds i set canada so that no need to pay tax, is switch also same?


From the old posts, found that Mexico / South Africa may have cheaper price for game on eshop, is this still the same for now?

Mexico and South Africa is for indie games only.
Normal is US region for Nintendo games.. You can use your local credit card now anyway even on 3ds.

You can have multiple account and just use one account to play them. Similar to how PS4 accounts work if you have a PS4 before, should know.

I see... Thanks for info biggrin.gif

I guess can make multiple nintendo account with multiple country, maybe 1 US and 1 Mexice / South Africa...

Well, i do not have PS4... the only PS i have is the first playstation tongue.gif

Thanks for the info of memory card, i also thinking of get a memory card as well biggrin.gif


BTW, anyone try nintendo switch with other controller?
I think for PS4 / Xbox one controller should be working with just the 8bit bluetooth dongle?
But i have a Xbox 360 wired controller, it seems like need another special adapter for Xbox 360 controller?



QUOTE(Rei7 @ Nov 9 2019, 10:39 PM)
Yup make multiple. Download/buy from other regional shop, then use just one main account, all the games will appear on it even if other account, that's how PS4 is as well. This also includes DLC/expansion you bought. Same for Nintendo Online sub as well.

I see... Thanks again biggrin.gif
Just make a nintendo account with US country, need to make another one, maybe mexico / south africa to see the price difference tongue.gif

No need to make one to see the difference in price, just use this site http://eshop-checker.xyz/

About other controller idk, most likely need those dongles.

I just realized that docking mode really heats up the switch. How do you all cool it down? and also cable extender such as this work? Is there any risk to bricking my switch?

Switch Cable Extender
*
Not sure about the cable, but if only cable, i think it won't brick the switch hmm.gif


For the heat, i saw there is fan accessory for the dock, but i only buy a cheap USB fan and put it at the back of the dock...
not sure how is the airflow of the switch when dock, i just open the cover of the back of the dock, and fan just blow to the dock...

Here i take pictures for the switch when i dock:

Of course you can buy it first but not download it.
Unlike PlayStation, you can use local credit card or PayPal too.
If you’re using a US account, just choose the right location for the lowest tax.

Thanks again for the info biggrin.gif

i think there is somewhere u can set for location for no tax hmm.gif

Thanks for sharing, the price quite nice biggrin.gif
But so many different spec, not sure which one to choose rclxub.gif

BTW, not sure about write speed, but i think switch memory card only support read speed of 100MB/s ?
anything higher speed will be a waste for switch?

When u 1st time insert and use the card in Switch, the console will format for u.

i see... Thanks biggrin.gif
maybe the update is format the memory card... when i insert the memory card in switch, it say there is update, then restart after update...


QUOTE(Rei7 @ Dec 4 2019, 12:31 AM)
SD Cards are usually already formatted for use. So yeah you don't need to do anything besides putting the memory card in the slot.
*
i see... Thanks biggrin.gif
Just not sure about switch since for computer / mobile phone, most of the memory card / pendrive already format and can use once u open the packaging...
