Had this with Shovel Knight near release, but couldn't get my card nor a Revolut one to work. Might work with Paypal now though? Will have to wait and see.

Where is the option to change profile settings? im seeing nothing under the account tab to change this?

Is there an easy way to check different eshop prices? I'm looking for a better price on Golf Story.

Here :smile:

Is it on the Mexican store now to buy and download, a pre order or just wait till Thursday?

I checked and as of yet it's not on the store but should be anytime now. It's up on other regions like South Africa for example. For reference it's just over £8 on the SA store.

Is there any confirmation that £6.16 is the actual price? I'm been trying to research the launch price for mexico in the eshop but cannot find any solid confirmation.

Which area are you selecting for Mexico? Latin America?

Great deal, but one of the only few games I'm happy to pay full price for. Well worth it.

I'm not getting a paypal option when trying to check out, or the ability to pay only the exact amount, any ideas on what to do?

didn't release it was being released so soon. Bought it a few months ago on pc, wish I waited

Is it available to purchase right now or should we wait until Thursday before switching? (excuse the pun)

I keep getting server errors. Am I doing something wrong?

Damn, that's now this and Sonic Mania I need to get from other countries' eshops, but I've got £50 on the shop to spend before I can swap stores. AND I don't really want to purchase much since it's all cheaper in the other stores. Any games that don't fit this criteria

Just to confirm, you can buy this on the mexico eshop but you can download the UK version when you change your region back?

Have people been able to successfully buy from Mexican eShop ?

I can't get this to work. I change my region on the webpage but I still have the same uk eshop on my switch

I'm on my account and changed it in settings using the same drop down menu as someone screenshotted earlier

It won't take payment yet what's the point as launch this price could change

Has anyone managed this through the browser only, without using the switch?

Never did get into this on my PS4, tempted to give another go on the switch!

This or Golf Story... :thinking:

I bought Sonic Mania from somewhere else (can't remember where). But i bought that entirely online.

Can you go on there now and pre order and download it on Thursday?

Is there a site to see diff e-shop prices, wish I knew before hand bout Golf Story,

This looks like a useful site, but it seems impossible to pay for games on foreign eshops unless you have a pre-paid eshop voucher code for that country, which will usually cost you more, ties up money that you might never spend, and adds hassle.

How are you paying for the games?

I used Revolut. Download the app from the apple/android app store. Create yourself an account and top up minimum of £10 and then you can choose a virtual card which you use the account details for the virtual card to purchase the game at the exchange rate price without the extra fees. It was really easy! Only downfall is that the language is in the country you change it to so you would have to remember the layout when purchasing through the eshop store. Also you will end up getting news feeds from that said country but that eventually gets pushed down when you select back to united kingdom. Hope that helps. :smile:

Sounds promising, thank you.

So if I top up £10 to Revolut, I can then spend £4 of that on the Japanese eshop, £6 on the Mexican eshop, for example?

I just used my mastercard on the different regions. Works fine.

When I go to the store it just says add to wishlist. How are people actually buying this?

Can you not use Paypal on the Mexican eshop?

That is correct. It is kind of like a prepaid cashcard.

what's wrong with credit card? The icing on the cake is using a foreign fee free one like Halifax's Clarity card, or Revolut.

I used mastercard too last time I did this. Your credit card may have its own load on top of the standard exchange conversion. It was the russian eshop I used last time. There may be something helpful for anyone buying online in the thread I used - hotukdeals.com/dea…979

Thanks for this, just what I was looking for

Nintendo's eshop just doesn't accept some cards from different regions. Russia is fine because it's still under the PAL regional banner (so is South Africa for that matter, hence why that works too), but the Mexican store might be more difficult.

I tried to buy something from the Mexican eshop near the Switches release and had no luck. I tried a debit, credit, revolut and entropay card. Didn't even try and charge, the shop just threw up an error as soon as I clicked the button after entering the card details. I mean it might have changed since then, but I'm not convinced.

I use eshop credit if I want to buy from the US or Japanese eshops instead.

I've tried my Mastercard today on the Japanese eshop and it doesn't go through (don't know what the error is reported as as I no reado the lingo).

Get the feeling Revolut may only work in Europe too. Anyone actually used Revolut successfully in the Japanese eshop or similar?

Do Revolut refund back to your card? I'm happy to give it a whirl if I can get my money back in my bank account if it doesn't work.

Just downloaded the Revolut app but they wanted a £50 min top up to get the card. thought it was £10?

yep looking like uk credit cards don't work on the mexican eshop. US credit cards do though. Most be similar to the pal russia thing

The other regions are all much of a muchness. Prob stick with the uk one then.

Not able to buy it from Mexico or South Africa yet, only add to wishlist.

Anyone have any idea when it'll actually be available?

5th October I believe.

Has anyone found a way to pay for this that doesnt require topping up $50 or owning a mastercard?

is this for a physical card or virtual?

It's for either, you can't get any card unless you top up £50, I deleted the app now, would not of bothered if I knew as now they have my phone num, which you have to give..

Wow, well they must have increased the minimum amount within the last month so I am sorry to hear that.

It don't matter to much, will try my debit card for this game tomoz, think it's only a few pence they charge, but I had read on here the Mexico store don't take uk credit cards..

It doesn't, that's the problem not no-one here has got a successful solution for, except maybe that anecdotal Halifax Clarity user. I've tried a UK debit (VISA) and UK credit (Mastercard) card in the last 24 hours in the Japanese and Mexican eshops and you can't get past the credit card details screen - it just keeps telling me to verify the details.

For those that can't purchase from Mexico the next best offer is South Africa which is about £2 more.

That's a pity, would of got this for just over £6, not sure bout the UK price as I am not totally convinced I will like it, and as ever buying digital if you buy a dud game your stuck with it, .. be interesting tomoz to see if, and how anybody gets this deal

Can you post back here tomorrow if you manage to somehow get it from the Mexico store, thanks

I bought double dragon 4 from the Mexico store fine yesterday around 6pm.

What payment method did you use? What sort of Mastercard is it?

I'll try my halifax clarity tomorrow and we can see if thats a thing then. Seems unlikely but maybe because it has not provider fees? Halifax don't add on top so perhaps it can be used in a wider region.?

I'll try tomorrow anyway and post back

just looking for some information from people that have bought games from different regions before.
I was wondering if you still get the gold coins for mynintendo from a eshop purchase in a different region?
Was looking to buy golf story and stardew but would like to know this before hand.
Thanks in advance!

Chucklefish (the team behind SDV) made prices fair for each respective region so everyone gets a fair deal and urged people not to abuse cross-region buying. £10.99 is actually a very fair price for this game at launch (exact same price as buying on steam despite Switch titles typically being more expensive).

I saw double dragon cheap on their I think if it still is gonna get that later off their can report back as will be using my Halifax card think it saw it for about £5

I hanvnt played Switch DD, did read negative reviews, I got Burning Fight, it's near enough the same as the old Final Fight, which I really liked esp two player..

Yes thanks for that just seen the review got 3.5 guess I will wait until 2morr then to try my card have my eye on a few other games also so see if they hit a good price

Meh. My Visa from Lloyds Bank hasn't been accepted and they don't have PayPal. Such a good deal that I'm not going to be able to get... :disappointed:

Is it up there now to buy?

Not yet but it has the release date for tomorrow. I just try to buy some cheap game a few hours ago and couldn't go through the confirmation. :disappointed:

FWIW, I've found my Mastercard does work in the South African eshop, so I can save a couple of quid compared to UK price still.

super. Is it not up on the mexican store yet then ?

It's apparently going live at 2pm today.

In the age of internet you have to link your 'apparently's.

Well apparently your source (?) was correct - downloading now.

Its a piece of cake if it does accept the credit card. Change region, purchase, change back. Simples

Also, tell that to all the people who won't pay £4 for iOS games and instead plough hours into free to play garbage

It didn't accept either of my cards when purchasing the cheapest game as a test so I bought it from the south Africa store instead. Cost just over £8 for a max 1 minute work around

Sorry I didn't try using PayPal. They might though because even when using my card it shows on my bank balance "PayPal nintendo"

This. My revolut doesn't work and neither does my debit or credit card. Can anyone confirm if they get theirs to work specifically for stardew in the Mexico store. Thanks!

I'm not actually having any luck with Mexico's store for Stardew Valley, using the same technique on the Nintendo website as I did for Golf Story.

I keep getting Error Code 904-1404 This site is not currently available in your region on the website when I go to the "buy digital" button for Stardew Valley.

I finally got to the payments screen no the switch itsself and neither my mastercard nor visa debit not visa credit card work

How did you pay?

What do you reckon to the game? I think it's got legs but need to get into it some more
