Redeem carts purchased by sticking them into your switch and doing a 'more info' on them. Store purchases are already included and you can check your balance on the my nintendo site now.

You should be able to get a neo geo game for free!

It's now, isn't it?
**** the eShop though.

Cleared Axiom Verge normal difficulty with 100/100 percentages. Managed an 80/96 clear without looking at a map - the 4% map remainder were entirely hidden parts relying on other entirely hidden items so didnt feel too bad consulting a map to at least see where the hidden map bits were.
Good game overall, very much an old school shareware feel to it.

Any chance of box pix please? Maybe some with size comparison next to another switch box?

Of the full pack? its longer and taller than the switch console box, but twice as thin. Or the steelbook? The games themselves are in standard boxes.

Not a bad Direct. Mario Tennis Ace with waggle controls, Smash Bros (not that it interests me but a system seller), Okami, Captain Toad, Dark Souls. Ports galore, something's clearly working.

Slightly suspicious Smash Bros is a another Wii U rehash. The Switch is a great console if you skipped the Wii U.

arrrgh , I'm meandering a bit with this "axiom verge ", still on 64% and haven't played much and the 2 occassions I did I've died o\
Now the dilema i have is my resident evil revelations cart is after arriving ..if I take axiom verge out it'll be a long while before I put it back in

the only upside of digital games is I can hope between them without uch effort ,not that changing cart is much hassle

although one of the resi's is digital
