Poll of the Day > Finally getting a switch.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Found a used one with:

Brand new nintendo switch still has box comes with pokemon shield, a case and a bunch of games
Divinity original sin 2
Witcher
Zelda breath of the wild
Daemon x machina
Sword art online fatal bullet complete edition
Dragon dogma dark arisen
Monster hunter
Fortnight
Smite
Warframe
Super kirby clash

Being sold for $315 (paying $320 so he comes to my place and sets it up so I can make sure it works etc).

Smite/fortnight/warframe are all free, but I figure the other games are worth at least $100 right now (if I resold). I'll keep Witcher at least for now (see if I like it better on the switch).

Sell most of the others (Since I already own them), and get marvel ultimate alliance 3 and a few other games for the switch:)

---

Damn it comes with Fortnite???

---

pretty good deal

---

Yeah, but fortnite is free, so I don't see why that matters. I have no interest in playing it.

Not an FPS kinda guy.

---

Yoooo fortnite

---

I wouldve paid $320 just for it having fortnite. Good deal dude.

Lol u guys are 2 funny:)

---

Been on the fence awhile, but I really wanna play ultimate alliance 3, and I wanna give witcher another try (even if I already own it on PC, perhaps I will like it more on switch).

I heard Skyrim controls on switch are pretty cool as well, and it plays well portably which would be cool.

Down for replaying Odyssey as well, and I'm sure there are a few other games, so seems worth it.

I may actually ditch my WiU at this point (along with that version of BoTW + Mario + mario maker etc), and just keep my original wii, since I like galaxy/galaxy 2, Dragon warrior swords and some other Wii games.

Probably can get at least $50 for the WiiU and games, which will drop the switch price effectively even lower (or pay for new games on the switch like ultimate alliance.

Also many people have said Diablo 3 is actually more fun on the switch....I own it and all DLC on the pc already, but...portable D3 + supposedly better might be worth picking up.

---

Didn't you have one before, but sold it? Also, I'm guessing the game are physical if you're able to sell them, right?
---

Yeah, I had one when it released but the only game I wanted to play was Odyssey and I finished it in 2 days. I ended up returning the system to Best buy, and since I had the buyers club thing, I just sold the game to someone for the price I paid for it. So it was a net zero cost.

Still not a ton of games I want to play, but, it's another portable system and could let me play skyrim/witcher etc on the go...which is nice. I plan on traveling this spring, so was looking for a good deal. Also there is Ultimate alliance out now which I do want to play, and I'm sure a few other games.

hit me up

---

Oh, yeah. FC in the sig. Add me, wolfy!

Also, anyone with a switch, add me!
---

I will totally add you Link if I get it tonight, that would be awesome!!:)

Do you live near Tacoma WA Game_grumps? It wouldn't make sense to ship it.

---

why would that not make sense

Send it by carrier pigeon...
---

Cost to ship the Wii U + games would make it not worth just buying used at gamestop or something + chance of it getting damaged in the trip etc.

I keep trying to use carrier pigeons but they fly away and try and shit on me.

Damn pigeons.

---

Why ditch the Wii U when it can play Wii games as well?

Wouldn't it make more sense to ditch the Wii?


---

it's like $8-$14 to ship it via flat rate boxes through USPS.

id be more than willing to cover that.

you would still be getting more than GameStop would give you for it, id still be paying less than what GameStop wants for one

---

The Wii U, along with the games I have with it, are worth alot more than the Wii, and I don't really care about the games I have on it much (xenogears, BoTW, Super Mario 3d world, Super Mario Maker).

I could look into shipping it, I usually just sell on facebook marketplace though, Less than gamestop charges for used, but more than they give as well.

Anyway I still have to actually get the switch tonight before I would considering selling it...but i'll look into shipping costs (I just don't normally ship when selling).

xenogears

Xenoblade?

Lol yeah, II I think it was on the Wii U, I have the first on the WII but never got to play either of them.

I may just end up selling the Wii though and games Id on't care for, since I can play the wII games on the WII U, along with the WII U games.

I looked at the prices, gamestop would give only like $40 for the system and even if I sold it directly to someone I doubt I'd get $100 for it, maybe $100 or a bit more with the games. I can still sell the WII + games it looks like for $80 pretty easy on facebook etc (I have ALOT of wii games and only wanna keep a very few). So the difference is really small between them.

I'll worry about it once I actually get the switch, maybe i'll even just sell both of em and get rid of everything since I have not actually played either in over a year.

Should get rid of my 2 ps3 systems as well, and my ps2 system at this point. Have tons of games...which means they are probably worth at least $50 (since being sold with games) as well.

If I sold all that, I'd more then pay for the swiich and a few more games for it as well.

Then I still have my PS4 + games + VR and my 3ds and my laptop for gaming anywhere I go.

---

Well blah, usually doesn't happen through facebook, but the dude never got back to me today. Was supposed to come over after 8pm when he got off work, but no response after I sent him my address/phone number earlier.

Oh well, it was a good deal, but I don't need the games, I have most of em already, and the sell value of all of them is only around $100 or so.

I can get a system by itself for about $220 if I wait, and then not need to sell the games. So no biggie. And I only really want the switch for this spring/summer cause I totally wanna go traveling (and for my cruise next September).

Oh well.......such is life.

---

Divinity Original Sin 2 is a lot of fun. Still I wouldn't buy over Facebook personally.

---

Yeah, I have it on steam, I have never finished it though because I played it with friends and they always moved on to ooher games (and I followed them), so I need to sit down and play through myseef sometime....but I also have Pathfinder:Kingmaker to get back to and Pillars of Eternity 2 Deadmans to even start etc. It's the same old same old, waay to many games, I can't even start to catch up on.

I buy and sell primarily over facebook because you can see the persons history, you know way more about them then say craigslist or offer up, and it's all local. This is the first flake I have had on facebook tbh (for buying) many times I have been selling and got flakes though.....it's just part of the process when selling online (in the US at least).

I was helping people alot with facebook up until I moved here (a bit when I first moved here). Donated air conditions, got food to people who needed it etc, there are great groups for helping people in your area.

Since I'm not driving much anymore though, I mostly have stopped that, also don't have much to give away anymore.
