I got Lost Legacy day of release. But never got a despatch email so was kind of worried for a day or two.

£29.99 (previously £25) if you want to try your luck with their 'cyclonic deal' - next available in about two-and-a-half days.
Got The Order from them on release day too.
... Almost wish I hadn't.

Depends on what country you're in, I think. I'm not sure if eShop cards denominated in Euros will work in any country with the Euro as its currency.
I pre-ordered it as well but it never arrived. Took almost two months to get a refund. Will never use them again
At this point, I think it's just an alternative GAF Gold joke. "Oh, gee, you guys didn't get Yakuza for a tenner? That's a shame."

Did anyone who managed to put in an order, actually get a copy yet though?
It's not due to be restocked until December.

Saw it for £19.99 on Simply Games. £19.85 at Base. Not sure if cheaper elsewhere. £25.00 on Amazon.

Not ordered from Base before but Simply are good.

This Yakuza 0 thing might dive me crazy. I was planning to buy it anyway and would have been willing to pay the current price for it but now that I know it's been a tenner...I'll never be able to pay more for it.

If nobody gets their £10 copies, it won't have been a tenner, if that's any consolation. ;-)

Hey fellow Europeans! Can you help me out with something? Today I pre-ordered both Mario Odyssey (43,47£) and Metro Exodus (36,74£) from GameSeek but was charged only 38,73£. Will they charge me more once the games come out? There was no indication of that anywhere during the order process. I'm really confused...
tryagainlater
Member
That is some consolation.
I have the same issue. I know the game is worth it for the current price but my mind will not let me buy it.

Has anyone come across Switch AC adapters other than the Nintendo ones? They are... quite pricey at £25, wondering if anyone has other solutions?

That seems very odd. GameSeek take payment when you order, so I wouldn't expect there to be any further charge, but I can't explain how you've ended up being charged that amount. Are you seeing that on your credit card or in PayPal? If the former and only just ordered, I wonder whether it's just being incorrectly reported for now and will update in a day or two. Does your order confirmation and/or order details in "my account" show the orders and price as you were expecting?
You might just have ended up benefiting from some sort of glitch in their payment system!

My PayPal was billed those 38,73£, and thats the same value that always appeared to me during checkout. Only went through with it because of this price, I mean, it's less than half of what it is supposed to be! Hope it is indeed a glitch, but I kind of feel bad for them, if true... Someone should try to se if they could also get this price.
I would also like to know this.
Thanks, I had spotted that Base deal but wondered if I could get an even better one (I guess not).

I use an iPad charger + the USB C cable that came with the Pro controller.
It doesnt charge the battery while in use (just stays at same %), but when in sleep it charges.

You need to be careful with USB C cables and chargers, some of them are bad for your battery/device.

I thought this was going to launch at full price, thinking of getting this even if I have to play Shadow of War and South Park this month alone.. :/

Mine says dispatched, arrived on Monday, let's hope it's true =D
I think the Switch does that by design, mine does that with the original charger, and any other charger that I tried, with some it even decreases very very little.
Yeah. Funnily enough, I'm sure I read even the Switch charger doesn't fully follow the USB-C specs. xD
USB-C really is such a mess in that sense.
For what it's worth anyway, I looked into USB-C PD chargers a while back, and decided that there wasn't anything cheaper that was also of good quality. The technology just seems to make them kind of expensive at the moment. I ended up leaving it, and I just use the one charger along with my USB-C PD power bank.
There's a bug with charging on the Switch, where you need to start the charging in sleep mode, and once the charging has started, you can go back to playing your game fine and it'll charge at the faster speed.
I've noticed it when using my power bank.

Just had a price alert on Nier Automata dropping to £11.99 on Amazon. Looks like its already sold out at the price but if anyones interested in the game it might be worth keeping an eye on the site today.
Great, another Amazon page to refresh constantly, only to miss the microsecond that the price actually drops.

Yes please, hope I can catch this one. Could've snatched up Yakuza 0 @ 10£ but I already have it. Was it actually an Amazon offer or another seller?

It was actually Amazon
If you're sitting at a computer all day just use a browser extension like Distill to automatically check.

Thanks to whoever put up about the Game trade in deal, managed to snag a ps4 pro this week.

Yeah, that's as good a price as you'll find anywhere, give or take a few pence - and they've been dispatching today. Personally, though, while Gameseek really haven't been good at release day delivery for me recently, as I was fortunate enough to get a £25 order from them for Shadow of War I'll stick with that... hopefully it'll arrive for Wednesday or Thursday.
As for Steam credit, It's not a huge discount, but cdkeys.com is probably your best bet, with £46.99 for £50 (and potential further £2.35 discount with their Facebook promotion), if you're happy to buy that much credit: https://www.cdkeys.com/top-up-cards/steam

Do you know if they ship outside of Germany? Cant select a different country when i register an account
Looks like it only works on their German shop, which only ships within Germany.
