Right. Two vouchers for 50 bucks a piece, 10 dollar upgrades to switch 2 version for each, it's cheaper even if you go switch 1 + upgrade as long as you want 2 games, and even cheaper if you get cheap eshop points.

Also Trevor, if you get a second Switch 1 or 2 for the family, digital games can be shared between two systems if you register both as yours. However those digital games can not played at the same time on two different systems.

The two Zelda games are a good choice especially since Tears of the Kingdom is a $70 game already. As is Metroid Prime 4 since that game just came out. The upgrade for the switch 2 version is $10 on that one.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
That’s weird. I know I picked up Kids Farm coloring but it’s not showing that I did. So I don’t qualify for the last three.
Oh well, that’s the last time I bother doing that. Those games are absolute crap. Not worth the time and effort of downloading them or trying them out. The bodies and bullets twin stick zombie shooter is the closest thing resembling an actual game and may be worth a little bit of time. But there are a lot those types of games out there that are a lot better.
Thanks for posting every day though.

Amazon has the DK/Pauline amiibo for $20. I should hold until at least $15, the SF and TotK went down to $6, but I went ahead and picked it up.
This is why I want them to keep upping the price of the Amiibos. Nobody will buy them for what they’re asking and I’ll sweep in and pick them up on the cheap.

Cyberpunk for switch 2 is 17.49 (75% off). This might be a mistake because that's really cheap for something that just came out, cheaper than even the DLC on other consoles:

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
Well I finally joined the switch 2 family officially. I had bought the system at launch even though it was an Xmas present because I was worried about supply issues, which proved to be unfounded considering there were actually deals on the bundle leading up to Xmas, but oh well.
Seems like the Stardew Valley switch 2 update was borked somehow, and the developer has promised to fix it.
The two system linked limit is a further annoyance because it kind of renders our "old" family switch unusable for digital games (my daughter already takes up the one linked spot on her switch) which kinda sucks. Also while I kinda want the "free" upgrades for both Zeldas I still can't justify upgrading my family switch online account to the next tier.
BTW some fantastic sales on the eshop right now (not Nintendo games though). Tempted by Silksong and Hades 2 even though the discount isn't that much, Baten Kaitos is the lowest it's ever been, etc.

A Switch 2 edition of Pikmin 3 has been rated in Europe. Even more Deluxe! None more Deluxe.

What setting do you use for picture; Standard (Game) or FPS game or it would depend on what kind of game you’re playing. Obviously, FPS seems a little brighter, but Standard looks darker. I prefer bright visual but neither are too bright.

I think I posted his first video on how to setup the Switch 2 for HDR. This is his update. If you want the quick and dirty go to 7:00

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
In this case, Google would be your friend. Search "Dynamic Tone Mapping" and the brand and model of your TV and it will tell you the analogous menus and processes (if any) that you will need to look for.
Good luck.
