    And here was me thinking I'd have ages to pick it up at my leisure. Oh well ><

    They had a stack of Chibi Robo for the 3DS, with the Amiibo, on the counter in Smyth's.
    Can't even leave it out to let it get robbed, not even the thieves want it!

    I picked my Poochy&Yoshi with the Amiibo in Gamestop, for my sins, because I happened to have a voucher.
    It was €55 but that's not so bad, only a fiver over the Smyth's price.
    There's still a few dotted around, Dublin at least link

    1-2-Switch (Digital) for £1.99 on Amazon. Surely an error but worth a punt if you have a UK address on your account.

    Wow that was an awesome share, Id like this game but not as a 35stg!!!

    I played it and its good for a laugh, but not outright buy, but having it digitally means its always there to demo it to others that dont have a Switch.
    How its should have been Nintendo as a Packin!

    Preordered, Thanks a million!!!

    1-2 Switch [Switch Download Code]
    Sold by: Amazon Media EU Sarl
    £1.99

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,563 ✭✭✭✭OwaynOTT


    That's about the right price for it. Bomberman too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,263 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    I just missed it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,435 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    Missed it here too, been trying for 5 minutes but Amazon kept on saying the order way unavailable for my country.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,018 ✭✭✭✭sligeach

    why should bomberman be that? fine it could be argued it shouldnt be the same price as say Botw but its actually 10 cheaper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,263 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    yeah said that then when I changed it said it was unavailable in the UK then was unavailable completely


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,263 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Wonder if they'll honour it

    To be fair to that pack, I definitely got my 15 euro value from that pack.

    Zip lash is a solid game, the Amiibo is adorable, and the Amiibo functionality with the game is cool.

    My only issue is that the way you unlock outfits in the game is really stupid, forces you to consult an online spreadsheet and beat every level at least twice.

    No way to 100% the game in a single playthrough.

    Has to be an error though Amazon are fairly good at honouring their mistakes.

    They should all be that price. :pac:

    The inevitable has happened. Amazon have cancelled all the £1.99 1,2 Switch orders.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,018 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Smyths have knocked a whopping €2 off The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Wii U. Grab a bargain, now only €62.99. :rolleyes:

    I'm getting a Switch on Friday. Any idea where the cheapest micro SD is? I guess I need 128GB ... I mean 256 would be great. But that price is usually a lot. But 128GB might fill up soon enough.

    If anyone finds a better deal on the snipperclips with neon reverse joycon set. You better post here. 100 seems too high.

    I see a 128GB micro SD card on Adverts for €30.
    Thing is, it's half the price it should be, it's sealed and she has multiple ones for sale.
    Smells like a fake to me, maybe it'll work, maybe it won't and who knows the failure rate.
    I was going to get one but decided against it.
    I'll pick one up for around €50 from a note legit source.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,457 ✭✭✭Danick


    Getting a Switch on Friday - apart from Zelda - are there any other day one games that you guys are going to pick up?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    I ordered a 128GB U3 SD card for £33 on Amazon, thought that was a pretty good price for decent speed.

    I'll be getting Super Bomberman R, and digital download of Snipperclips.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,626 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    1,2 Switch and Binding of Isaac are what I'm getting in addition to Zelda, but I'm tempted by Snipperclips/Joycon pack now as well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭SMC92Ian


    If you don't like 1,2 Switch or Zelda what am I supposed to get?

    I was the same re: Snipperclips but figure Zelda will keep me busy until the 10th so can get it for free/reduced with the second set of Joy-cons.

    Keeping an eye on the eventual price for the bundle, I'd say it'll be a bargain one way or another.
