Is this a new thing? Sounds altogether quite useful. 

I think so, not sure. It's only on certain products and I'm not sure if everyone can use it, I get the impression it's an account-specific offer. Even the switch -for me at least it's only valid on the lite and not any bundles. 

 

On the item page they make it look like a typical dodgy credit deal but if you click for more information it isn't.

 

Also it said you must have a credit card on your account to be eligible although it seemed to be allowing me to charge it to a debit card (but I put it on a credit card anyway as I think it should mean I get s75 cover). Sometimes American companies use the term interchangeably so I don't know.

Are either of the Blazblue games worth considering if I don't have a stick?

 

 

They're very pad friendly in my opinion. Cross Tag Battle has just been updated to 2.0 and will have more players than CF but it's also likely to be pretty dead online within a few weeks. Excellent game, though. 

 

If you haven't already got it, DBFZ is the only fighting game apart from Smash where I can still get a game online and it's much better than BB.

I'm going to be honest, the addition of Teddie in one of the Blazblues is the thing that drew me in earlier. I'll do some more research though, I would like a fighter that does somewhat take the controls into account. I have the SF 30th collection and it's heartbreaking to have all those games be various levels of unplayable.

We need to get another switch for youngest Xmas, I’ve been holding out for tomms but has anyone seen any deals in this pre Black Friday week?

 

 

 

Best one I've seen for OG Switch (with better battery) was on HUKD, comes with pokemon and MK8 for £300 https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nintendo-switch-2019-version-pokemon-sword-mario-kart-deluxe-29900-3345737

 

Or if you prefer Lego https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nintendo-switch-improved-battery-3345023

 

Think there was a Lite on for under £200 as well but really they're not discounting the hardware much.

Also if you need a code for 10% off the official Nintendo Store, give me a shout.

The two deals of note on the lite are amazon and Asda. 170 at Asda but only in physical shops and it seems to be only certain branches. 

 

Then it's 190 at amazon which isn't much of a reduction but still. I jumped in there. Don't have time to go hunting around asdas.

I didn’t see it at £185 and have been checking a lot.

 

My comment was based on the assumption that you were pointing out that £189.99 was less than £190.

 

Oh right, no. I was pointing out you'd already missed the price. Although it's possible it was a misprice or a 3rd party seller.

They have fluctuated by a few quid but as you said, 3rd party sellers popping up when amazons stock went. Sadly, I’ve had a wish list up with them on all day refreshing it :ph34r:

 

Thanks for clarifying :)

New switch owner as  of today (went for the lite). Been playing around with it. Really well designed bit of hardware. Too many good games to choose from too. 

 

So far loving Fire Emblem and Katana Zero.  FE is a bit clunky in the persona-ish 'walk around and talk to everyone' sections they've added to those but enjoying it otherwise.
