I'm pretty sure you can but better ask a Nintendo service representative to make sure before spending the money.
Can’t wait to play links awakening tomorrow, I play it probably once every 3 months so I’m ready for a fresh lick of paint.
Can't get ahold of Astral Chain in a physical copy. All out in Norway. 
Switch prices are nuts. £50 for a remake of a fecking SNES game, Nintendo can suck my ballsack.
Also anyone in Ireland, GameStop are doing an amazing offer right now. Trade in your old Switch and get a new 1.1 Switch for €30, absolute bargain.

Agreed - would love to get it - but not at that price
It's actually a gameboy game (it's not Zelda 3) and one of the best Zeldas. I got it for £55 with a cool teeny tiny rupee lighy because I'm a fool.

that makes it even worse!
Just picked up Zelda myself. €55 is quite step for a remake but I'll prob burn through it a couple of times and then just trade it in.
I agree.
Hopefully it'll be rereleased in a year or two under nintendo select for about £20.00 and I'll pick it up then.
It's the same reason I haven't got Mario Kart 8 or Zelda BOTW for the switch. I love both the games, but I'm not paying full price for Wii U ports, especially when I have both the games on the old console.
Problem with Nintendo and their games is that they rarely go down in price. They know that most people who buy their consoles will buy Mario, Zelda, Pokemon etc. anyway so why drop the price at all? Zelda and Mario are still basically the same price they were at launch.
I love the Switch but the price of the games is ridiculous at times. When you're paying more money for a fecking Zelda remake or Pokemon game than an AAA PS4/Xbox game then something is up.
Bought turqouise Switch lite. It looks very nice, I haven't played anything yet as I need to get back home to go through account transfer but I like how small it is, will definitely have it in my backpack everyday I go to work. Normal sized Switch is a bit too heavy and large for that.
It's always been the way. As I said, they might release them under Nintendo selects which are usually pretty much half price from their original rrp.
The games are usually so good that they're worth the money, hence the reason almost everybody buys them. I'm under a massive backlog, so I can afford to wait it out, as any new games would just sit on the shelf anyway.
Having said that, I will pick up Astral Chain and AI: The somnium files when they drop in price and I have Luigi's Mansion 3 on pre-order. Something I usually never do, but I loved the previous two mansion games.
Having not seen one, is there really that much difference?
Astral Chain was £42 which is a lot more reasonable I think. I bought it anyway as it looks great.
Fire Emblem was a bargain at £45, already sunk 100 hours into it.
But Zelda at £50 just irks me seeing as it's a remake and supposedly only like 15 hours long!
I wasn't justifying it, just claryfying a common misconception that it's not the same game
Having said that, the game is awesome and a very well done complete remake. The price is too steep though, they always are.
I'm guessing they're hoping everyone who hasn't played it will think the price is alright. I've never played it so I'm not too fussed about it and will pick it up at some point.I wasn't justifying it, just claryfying a common misconception that it's not the same game

I feel the same, never played it, completely justified for me, also it's a complete remake not like it's just a remaster.
End of September or when stock runs out I believe.When does this deal end???
I bought it full price too, one of my favourite ever games and this version is so nice. The quality of life improvements to how gear is equipped make it so much nicer to play than the original.I wasn't justifying it, just claryfying a common misconception that it's not the same game

It's a shame about the price, because some are going to miss out on what is truly an excellent game with some of the weirdest Nintendo characters ever. And that's saying something
I've never played the original, the new one looks so good from the clips I've seen
Have never played the original, but bought this on thursday. I just finished the fourth dungeon and I'm loving every minute of this game. It's just so much fun and there's always something to explore even though the map is quite small. Best game of the year so far.
Dunno if anyone here is still playing Mario Maker but I finally decided to try making a level. I wanted to do one that I felt seemed like it came from an official Mario game, and nothing too wacky or impossibly hard. It is quite challenging though.
Code is FJM-KM4-00H

I still don't have a Switch but have really gotten into watching ryu's GSA SMM2 league games. They're an hour long but oddly captivating.
lilkirbs and thabeast721 are also very good.
I've heard about Thabeast, not seen either of them play though. Did watch iiPK against ryu and he waslilkirbs and thabeast721 are also very good.
so good. Even despite the loss, he topped the table for a while because he cleared against so many people. His average clear rate is insane too.
TheBeast is on a different level than Ryu, also CarlSagan surprisingly won more races than anyone, specially good at speed runs.
So my thoughts on Link's Awakening after playing it for the first time ever, 6 dungeons in, wtf was the director smoking creating that and how did these ideas and mechanics work on a gameboy in 1993? Absolutely fantastic game, but very trippy.
Lately only been able to play games one day a week so really stuggling to keep up with SMM2, good thing is though that this game will last for the whole Switch life time probably.
Ah yeah fair enough!
It's the only thing I've played since I got it
Hopefully I'll get Zelda and give that a go pretty soon though.Cool! I’ll check that one out mate!
Nice
It is a fantastic game, but Nintendo refused to let me play it for long enough by releasing FE, Astral Chain, and LA in consecutive months after it.Ah yeah fair enough!

Yeah that is a bit much if you're interested in all of themIt is a fantastic game, but Nintendo refused to let me play it for long enough by releasing FE, Astral Chain, and LA in consecutive months after it.
Luckily I'm pretty simple to please these days, 2D Mario is almost all I need.
Still LM3 and Pokemon coming up, and you know I'll drop all games for Pokemon.Yeah that is a bit much if you're interested in all of them

To be fair. Ryu is on a whole different level to the rest as a entertainer.
Yesss, looking forward to Luigi's Mansion for sure, looks good
Never finished 2 on the 3DS but this looks easier to drop in and out of so I'll play it quite a bit I'm sure.
Yes RYU is an amazing entertainer, I like Paco as well but Paco I feel like drops some right wing hints at times, I cringe every time he says I hate the left when choosing a path.To be fair. Ryu is on a whole different level to the rest as a entertainer.
Another guy who is really good is Barbarian, but he is kind of an asshole.
I played the original Link's Awakening, but watching ryu on stream, I'm sure the remake has way more Mario references than the original unless I'm remembering wrongly.
I also found the other GSA YouTube account and came across this:
I'm liking that format more than the tournament one as they get to play the same levels and there's the odd one in there that is more challenging than you'd see on a regular Expert run.
Watched Thabeast play Fuzzyness today and yeah he looks quality. Would have to see more of him but
I think his 3-0 whitewash in every game so far with 8+ clear average speaks for itself.

I'm quite keen on Sayonara Wild Hearts. Has anybody played it? Looks like pure bubblegum.
The developer, Simogo, made a brilliant text adventure called Device 6 -- sort of like an updated, text-driven version of The Prisoner (iOS only).
Also Year Walk if anybody played that (probably the Scandies).
