I ordered the one off littlewoods and arrived today complete with mario cart deluxe 8 which was a surprise to me 305 euros

How come you got that for 305 Euro?

pollocks wrote: »

I have no idea, I ordered just the console for a Santa present and it came with the mario game inside for the estore and plastered all over the outer sleeve on the box was mario deluxe included. So it was either a mistake on their part or they just sent out those ones as standard? Anyone else order from littlewoods?

I've heard bad things about littlewoods. Definitely you were lucky!. How many days for the dispatch/delivery?

I paid 350 for the same thing in smyths. Littlewoods definitely didn’t have that package when I looked

But that's what I'm saying I didint order the package I just ordered the console which was advertised for 305.
Think it took 7 days from when I ordered to delivery but that was due to delivery driver acting the maggot should of been here in 5.

Basically , there is a chance that:
1- If you order from littlewoods, the parcel might arrive
2- If it arrives, then after ordering a plain switch from littlewoods gets you the Deluxe Mario Kart Digital Edition

I ordered a PSVR headset from Littlewoods in 2017 for about €350.

They sent me two boxes.

Also managed to get a 55" Samsung TV from them with a 20% off voucher, and normally you can never use their money-off coupons for televisions. Took about €300 off the price.

Anyone buying online make sure to check the postal service for cutoff dates.

Dead by daylight for €25 in Smyths looks interesting but probably just a few euro dearer than I'd like.

It's always good to reduce prices when there is no stock

I'm about 115 hours into Asphalt 9. I'd recommend it for your racing fix.

Downloaded for my nephew and he loves it. I think I'll get it myself too. Great game. Very arcadey.

Can you not just use Revolut directly on US/Canada eShop?

Was gonna get my online sub for Switch from Ninty itself but because I had it set to dpd address it cancelled because it's a forwarder (even though it was digital download, thought it would be fine)
Got it from Smyth's last year, best place to go?

And - Do you think there'll be another sale soon? Got an e shop card voucher (e15) and was looking at The Missing or Deadly Premonition

Thanks in advance

Best thing is to set up a family account and find 7 other to join you on Reddit, or join someone elses. Drops the cost of a sub to less than €5.

Isn't it still free with Amazon prime?

They finished the twitch offer in October so no more subs that way I'm interested in a family sub as I've two switch's but I'm probably gonna get Tetris 99 for €28 in Argos as that's the cart and a 12 month sub (not family unfortunately)

I want the cart just because

Tetris 99 is free digitally with any online sub I thought?

Cart has all the DLC too.

NINTENDO OF EUROPE BRINGING A ''FESTIVE OFFERS'' DIGITAL SALE, STARTING THIS THURSDAY

https://gonintendo.com/stories/351283-nintendo-of-europe-bringing-a-festive-offers-digital-sale-st

Nintendo almost immediately deleted the Tweet. Perhaps it was posted too early.

Edit: The Tweet's now officially live.

Geki Yaba Runner (today's game) is free now.

I had it on 3DS and it's a great little game.

Did you set up a nintendo account for him and download robonauts in the last 5 days?
If not, you've broken the chain and can't get any of the free games this week (unless they extended the robonauts free period)

My nephew is getting a Switch for xmas. Will he not get those free games if he only hooks the thing up on xmas morning?
As in, do you have to claim the games as they're made free, or can you get them in bulk on xmas day?

You will need to download robonauts onto the switch too to start the chain.
That's what I noticed with geki yaba runner. It didnt become free today until my switch recognised that robonauts was downloading.
This might be the case with each game too, so it would be awkward to do when you're trying to hide a santa gift.
