sorted byTo be fair it's practically a different game since it was originally reviewed.
Controls have been fixed, frame rate doubled, net code fixed, ton of extra content.
I know we're use to being ripped off one Nintendo consoles and theres hardly any games out.
The download will show on the main screen. When you launch it, you will be prompted to select which account you wish to use. So just select your usual UK account
3rd party games never hold their price for too long regardless of hardware they're on. Nintendo though are completely reluctant to discount their own games...they hold their price for a long time.
It's also one of those games that are great out and about when sharing joycons
I've put in 30 hours already!

Not sure why there's hatred for Nintendo and the switch? I also have a gaming pc so thy compliment each other perfectly. I'm not going to get into an online argument on the merits or shortcomings of a particular company or product, that's pointless.
For me. I'm happy to pay an extra £10 to download it and not have to change the cartridge. Maybe it's because I game on a pc and I'm used to it. I no longer change a cd when I want to listen to different music so why with games? technology has gone past that point.
It just unlinks your NNID from your Nintendo Account
They can be relinked when the region's match again
(NNID is set to the region it's created with and cannot be changed)

One game is a Wii port (Mario kart)...the other, again to my knowledge, was released the same time on the switch...so not exactly a port no. But yes, the switch has the best versions of both these highly rated games. And again, it will have least one more of this gens top rated games by the end of the year.
But if decent games aren't enough of a reason for you to justify my switch purchase what is? tech? I guess it depends on how you look at it? weakest console...or most powerful handheld system made? personally I buy gaming machines for the games...happy with my purchase. Why that upsets you I don't know
Maybe if you're a good boy father Christmas will get you one this year, then you won't need to save your pocket money. win win!
I don't see why you need to be so defensive about the switch. I've seen a few people on here act exactly like that as if only their opinion counts. If you like the switch and the games then that's great. The thing though is that a load of nintendo fanboys feel the need to overly defend their platform. They are great games sure, but the fact that the 2 games are on the Wii U isn't really a big selling point to get a switch is it? Especially given the cost of both the games and the handset. They are very valid criticisms that people are allowed to have. Frankly if the Wii U didn't flop so hard, I'd imagine more people would be critical of it being a port platform. The switch is starting to get newer games which is great, but people aren't wrong to have their reservations over an expensive platform that has low battery life, low storage, expensive games, limited portfolio where it's better to wait until you buy a switch if interested. The switch is a good platform that allows a good handheld experience that can be docked, but there are a lot of things that also turn people off from the device currently.
Hopefully the games will start to drop in price. I don't really like how certain people try to justify the cost just because some of the games are good. Everyone makes games that attract certain people.
Alternatively, back on the UK store, buy a £25 eshop card with 5% from cdkeys and pay the difference to get it for £27.80.
Anyone else found ways to shave the price down further?
Free and much more fun.
How do I play that on my Switch? Thanks
Remember... A Switch isn't just for Zelda. It's for Nintendards who have more money than sense...
Haven't been on hukd much in the last few months - it's nice to see the Switch deals still bring in the same comments from the same people!
In the case of the Switch at least, physical and digital actually start off at the same price. Physical tends to start quite high due to the costs of cartridges and Nintendo wants digital to match this, so physical sales don't get dented.
However retailers will end up reduce the price of physical, they always do! But rare to see digital budge, especially 1st party stuff. This is one of those rare sales on the eShop for the switch at the moment
I dunno, I presume it has a web browser
Yeah, that's the problem. If it's the same as retail it's actually more expensive as you have to pay for the storage media.
Worse yet, physical always drops in price and can be resold... so basically digital becomes pointless for games already available physically.
With digital, you're basically buying convenience
I assume the two Switch games you are referring to are the glorified Wii U ports, yeah? Both of which sell for AAA prices, and are a means for Switch owners to justify it to themselves that their purchase was worth the necessary effort and expenses.
With regards to Nintendo's track record of making the best games, I assume you also mean to include recent turkeys such as Starfox 0, Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival and Metroid Federation Force, yeah? Because where I'm standing, having saved my money and time by not investing in such a worthless system, the likelihood of Nintendo making the best games is akin to stating that a broken clock is correct more than twice a day.
All fair points put in a considered manner.
As I don't have a Switch yet, I'm a little out of touch with the digital purchasing rules; Are purchases tied to just one machine (like they are on the Wii U) or has that all changed now?
This article explains one of the big post launch updates that delivered significant improvement

Game wasn't very good at launch but has changed a lot since those initial reviews
Wasn't Nintendo's decision actually. In recent years, sales of non Nintendo published games were always driven by the respective publisher.
As long as you don't have credit on your Nintendo account, you can change region at 'accounts.nintendo.com' but if you have any credit on your account you won't be able to change without contacting Nintendo, so don't change region then load it with credit, pay by debit/credit card.
As long as there is no credit on your Nintendo account it's very simple to change region as often as you like
Bomberman on Norway eShop works out as £23.79, so a fee-free card would get it for that, else there would be a small exchange fee by your payment method (usually 2% or 3%)
So can you switch accounts, buy from Norway, then switch back to UK and see it alongside your other software?
