Excited to nab PuyoPuyo Tetris when I get home from work and Mario Kart later in the week.
Last week saw Hamster release Fatal Fury for both PS4 and Switch.
I see they have "Galaxy Fight" out on PSN today, wonder if we'll get it on Switch Thursday? Anyone know if it's any good?

Wonder Boy? That's already out, no?
I don't see a release for this week with MK8 and stuff...or is that the only release?

Oh cool, I just saw Europe...Same releases in NA?->
Reminder that today is Tuesday, not Thursday.
No. We don't know yet what's coming for NA. Except for Kamiko on Switch. And MK8DX, I guess?

You do remember there's a schedule for when we know these things, right?
It's been a long time since I paid attention to these unfortunately :/
Wonder how long until Switch starts getting sales on the eShop.
Kamiko looks....decent, especially for only $5. Waiting for Blaster Master Zero & Voez to get discounts. Though I might give in to Kamiko just because it'd be nice to have a new game exclusive to the system that isn't a port of something I've already played....even if I'll probably get Cave Story+ & MK8 Deluxe down the line.

One of the advantages of subscribing to the online service is 'exclusive offers'... Sales probably won't begin until then and I wouldn't be surprised if all first party sales were offered to members only.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Ok so since I just got my Switch finally, and you are my OG Nintendo homies what should I prioritize from the eShop?
I plan on getting a $50 eShop card along with picking up Kart (physical). I'm already buying Snipperclips to play with my daughter. So that leaves me $30 give or take (I could always just spend a tad more).
I was thinking maybe Graceful Explosion and Master Blaster? Then I could just bank the left over credit while I play through what I got for now.

I loved Fast RMX (still playing it!), SnakePass and Blaster Master Zero. But with MK8 coming I would prioritize the last two. Graceful Explosion is worth it as well. Mr. Shifty is also a good game but I suggest waiting for the performance patch.
Puyo Puyo Tetris is fun and $30. You can play them separately or together.
It is tough but I have enjoyed Has-Been Heroes a lot, $20. Tutorial doesn't really tell you how to play the game the right well and can be very planny.
Kamiko comes out today for $5. Imagine a speedrun version of Link to the Past with four different characters that could be beat in about an hour and you have that game. People who DLed it from JP eShop have been raving about it and finally coming to US.
I only have one Neo-Geo game, Shock Troopers. But it is $8 and mighty fun. You have to have 2 joycons per person but it plays two players and a really nice side-scrolling shooter game.
FAST RMX is a crazy good racer game for $15 (or was it $20?) that allows 4 player split screen, 60fps, 1080p, online play, and more. It is F-Zero with color changing for boosts like Ikaruga.
That's all I currently have to recommend. I didn't like SnakePass and there is Zelda of course.
They can continue that "discounts only for members" mantra but they won't attract new buyers.
Non members will see the eShop and say "Just another day at the eShop" and close the webpage/app.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Fast was one of my most anticipated eShop games, but I too feel like if I'm already gonna get kart tomorrow I should probably prioritize something else. :/
I've spent over 125 hours on BotW and I'm not a big fan of 3D Zelda games, it's really fantastic.
I just finished Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap and it was a great game, if a bit short for the price. Around 5-7 hour range.
You can grab a demo for PuyoPuyo Tetris, and if you make a JP account you can also get demos for DQH1+2 and Spelunker.

Yeah I forgot to mention I got Zelda when I finally found a system earlier this week. That's all I got though until tomorrow.
That's all you need!
Zelda and Mario Kart will set you up for a looooong time

Glad Tumbleseed is out soon. That game looks unique and fun. I feel like I have a ton of stuff to play on Switch. Something worth grabbing each week.
Hi, I have a question regarding taxes when buying digital games from nintendo.com.
I live in South America and I'm getting a Switch on monday. I was planning on buying BotW digitally since I have some credit left.
So I went to nintendo.com but during checkout I noticed tax would be charged but when buying from nintendo eshop with my WiiU tax is $0.00.
Does the web store charge tax no matter the address registered in your account?
If it does I'll wait until Monday but thought I could save some time and do it before I get the console.
Thanks

In the U.S. I've always been charged tax on 3DS and Wii U, whether buying on the console or not.

Guys, is this the end for Wii U VC? Tell me it's not.
Not until Neutopia II is up.
And Mother 3.
*sobs*
I'm wanting to buy a few digital Switch games and I want to make sure my account is squared up.
I already own digital 3DS, Wii, and Wii U games. Is there anything I need to do in order to make sure my accounts are in sync? I don't want to be starting something new on accident. Thanks.

VC on Switch.
I suppose you use the same NNID for 3DS and WiiU? Link that with your Switch's NAcc.

Thanks for the help GAF with suggestions!
It'll be VC on Switch. Same as Mother 2 was VC on Wii U early on. May come to n3DS VC later, if n3DS is still around, but expect it on Switch early in the VC life there.
Yes, this.

Same waste of localization efforts for a 10$ release when you can sell and market a full-blown full-price remake for your 60m install base
