Cheaper than retail! Surprising sale by konami... maybe to tie in with the recent update?

To be fair it's practically a different game since it was originally reviewed.

thirty quid for a 62 rated metacritic game is still a lot.
I know we're use to being ripped off one Nintendo consoles and theres hardly any games out.

South Africa Nintendo sells it for 390 rand which equates to less than £23. Got minecraft for around £15 the same way before and works fine. Just create a separate profile on your switch to buy from the South Africa store.

An OK price for physical but too much for digital IMHO

This article explains one of the big post launch updates that delivered significant improvement
Game wasn't very good at launch but has changed a lot since those initial reviews

Remember... A Switch isn't just for Zelda. It's for Nintendards who have more money than sense...

It's €29.99 on other European stores. There seems to be some sites that sell eshop € credit. Seagm has 2 €15 for £27.18. Of course you need to have a European Nintendo account to redeem and purchase.
Alternatively, back on the UK store, buy a £25 eshop card with 5% from cdkeys and pay the difference to get it for £27.80.
Anyone else found ways to shave the price down further?

As long as you don't have credit on your Nintendo account, you can change region at 'accounts.nintendo.com' but if you have any credit on your account you won't be able to change without contacting Nintendo, so don't change region then load it with credit, pay by debit/credit card.
As long as there is no credit on your Nintendo account it's very simple to change region as often as you like
Bomberman on Norway eShop works out as £23.79, so a fee-free card would get it for that, else there would be a small exchange fee by your payment method (usually 2% or 3%)

Wasn't Nintendo's decision actually. In recent years, sales of non Nintendo published games were always driven by the respective publisher.

Looks like a much better price. :smiley:
As I don't have a Switch yet, I'm a little out of touch with the digital purchasing rules; Are purchases tied to just one machine (like they are on the Wii U) or has that all changed now?
