Guest Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 What's the process now for buying on those stores? Do you have to add funds to your account through a webpage or something? Quote

Do you have to add funds to your account through a webpage or something? For the 3DS/Wii U store? If you link up your Switch account - which I’m assuming you can still do (someone can correct me if I’m wrong) - the funds carry over. That’s how I’ve been doing it, and there are some nice bargains on both stores right now, and some great pick-ups too. I might pull together a wee post before the store closes to highlight some of the gems I’ve bought. Quote
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted March 10, 2023 Paid Members Posted March 10, 2023 A Switch account is the only way to do it now yeah, something I don't have. Missed the deadline least year for adding funds to my 3DS account. Don't think there's anything I can do about it sadly. Quote

Same position my sister's in, but I supppppose (insert stroppy Kevin the Teenager pic) I could let her link up my Switch account with her Wii U. Sighhh. Quote
Merzbow Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 This is one reason why I'm so glad I've hacked all my old consoles, even without the closures of online stores there are delisted games I just couldn't buy either way. Quote
Guest Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Anyone who hasn't used their Wii U in a while, make sure it still works before committing funds to your Switch account. Some users are finding their console bricked by a memory error due to inactivity. Quote
DavidB6937 Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Apparently there's a Spring Steam sale starting today at some point so keep an eye out good to hear of any bargains anyone spots. Quote
Paid Members Carbomb Posted May 22, 2023 Paid Members Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) Amazon Prime Gaming has some free titles, including 3Count Bout, a Neo-Geo wrestling game from the 90s, and Planescape Torment, a highly-acclaimed RPG. https://gaming.amazon.com/home?signedIn=true EDIT: They've also got an instalment of one of my favourite fighting games ever! Samurai Shodown IV: Amakusa's Revenge. Also, Super Sidekicks - a football game for Neo-Geo in the early 90s, very reminiscent in style of Italia '90 that you could play in the arcades, looking at the screenshots.

Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted May 22, 2023 Paid Members Posted May 22, 2023 I didn't even realise Prime did games. How does it work, what do you play them through? Quote

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted May 23, 2023 Paid Members Posted May 23, 2023 It's the last day of this Capcom bundle.

I've put the most time into Dragon's Dogma, which is a lot of fun and plays well without any tweaking at all. Quote
