Luigi all the way.

 

Or if your feeling generous, i can take it off your hands, and purchase Luigis Mansion with it?

 

Well that ain't happening. But even if it was, I can't - it's tied to my account.

This is probably the correct answer.

 

I just spent my second one on DQXI. I'll definitely be getting two more. Pokemon won't buy itself. Probs wait a bit to see if the price of credit drops a bit more on cdkeys though.

I traded in my launch day Switch for a new one with the more efficient processor/longer-lasting battery. On the old Switch I was getting a little over two hours on Dragon Quest XI, and now at least four and a half hours on the new Switch, both at medium brightness. Happy with that improvement. Also betrayed my grey homies and joined team neon. :ph34r:

 

I wasn't up for transfering all my shit from one Switch to another in the middle of fucking GAME (first time I've been in there in many years - I always feel grubby when I leave) so I unlinked my account and wiped everything off the old Switch beforehand, then got the new Switch, added a new user and just linked it to my existing account. Surprisingly straightforward for Nintendo. Unfortunately it forced me to delete all my games off my micro SD card (but let me keep all my screenshots, weirdly) so I'm having to download the whole lot again, but they're all in the eshop 'redownload' section - again, surprisingly straightforward compared to the old days. Downloading all my saves from the Nintendo Online cloud is working without any issues too.

 

RIP my Splatoon 2 save though, since the game's not compatible with cloud saves. Still, maybe it's a good excuse to play it all again...

How much did the trade cost you, out of interest?

 

GAME gave me £165 for the old Switch (I think that's ok for a console I've been using for 2.5 years although no doubt I would have got more selling privately) so I had to make up £115 for the new one. I put Link's Awakening and a few other games I'm done with towards the rest. It's rather a lot to pay for better battery life, but my justification is I also get a shiny new Switch with its shiny new pair of joycons and no money actually came out of my bank account...

Shit, I’ve just got a switch lite and totally forgot splatoon 2 doesn’t do cloud saves.

 

Is there any way to get my save from my original switch to my lite? 

 

In the Data Management section of the Switch's system settings, there's a Transfer Your Save Data option which then has an option to send save data to another console. Never tried it myself but maybe you can transfer your save to your Lite that way?

Before people go buying these vouchers, be aware it's cheaper just buying the games digitally from shopto. Almost all of their digital codes for first party Nintendo games are £39.99, rendering the £42 vouchers pointless.

If you buy your credit from Shopto they can work out cheaper than £39.99.  Last time I bought 3 £30 eshop vouchers for £24 each, a total of £72 pounds. So that's the vouchers for £36 each with £6 left over.

Yes, you can simply wirelessly transfer saves between two switches.

$25 in the US. £27 in the UK.

 

Brexit baby!

 

Ordered one anyway. Its smaller than I thought at 12cm * 7cm but should be more than comfortable enough. The dpads have the clickable buttons too which is just mad!

 

Might order the yellow afterwards if I end up liking it a lot.
