Pricing was visible until I created an account, now instead of the price, it shows "Pricing unavailable" and below that, "Eligible for up to points", with no # of points shown. I've turned of AdBlock, allowed, Flash, Popups,Redirects, etc. Any thoughts?

EDIT: Got the price to show, but now it requires me to log in on the Switch associated with the account to purchase. Since I was buying these in anticipation of getting a Switch, I guess I jumped the gun a little bit.

Buy Almost There first to get a gold point. Then use that to purchase Gurgamoth

I think your math is off unless your point is to make sure we capitalize on the $0.01 savings today versus some time in the near future when we buy yet another super cheap game.

Thanks for your 2 cents. Yes that is what I meant. That's what I get for tying to type something at 5am lol

I bought Gurgamoth a few weeks back when it was this price. It's actually not bad. Definitely worth the few pennies. Might check out Almost There this time since it looks like a decent Super Meat Boy clone.

To me Almost There looks like a cross of Super Meat Boy with N/N+/N++.

I'd really recommend checking out N++ since it's on the eShop, too. It's sublime. I won't bother with Almost There since if I'm looking for a nails-hard Switch platformer N++ scratches the itch.

Gurgamoth is a surprisingly fun couch multiplayer game. Just like Jackbox games, it is only fun when playing with others. I paid 10 cents for mine, and my boys and I have played several hours at this point.

Your "50" Metacritic score is not "meta" - that is the score from only one reviewer, and I assume they probably reviewed it alone...

If you want people to add you, you need to add your Nintendo friend code, found in your profile. Starts with "SW-" followed by numbers.

Yeah, it's a real bummer Nintendo doesn't let you buy digital games without already owning a Switch. It somewhat makes sense, but I was in the same boat as you last year ... wanted to buy cheap games on Black Friday before our Switch came in and couldn't.
