You can buy retailer codes and gift them later.
Also buying codes from retailers gives more gold coins.

I've warned players to download the DEMO first. And I totally stand by that. If a slickdealer gets all enthralled and rushes to pull the trigger because of some underwhelming "sale" then they might set themselves up for disappointment. They should try the demo 1st. If they love it, then great. They'll know exactly what they're getting. For me, the demo was super informative. I find the game to be a MASSIVE disappointment. And that demo saved me a nice chunk of money!

IeShop has same prices for these games but you get %5 in gold points from $41.99 (240) on eShop, on Amazon %5 from full retail price $59.99 (300).
Also on eShop you can't buy code if you do not have Nintendo Switch and you can't buy it for your child's Switch.

So - this is a better deal that buying from eShop

Tempting, might wait for Black Friday around the corner though.

Amazon kept trying to verify my cc. Which I never have to do but only for this item. Very odd. Ordered from Nintendo directly on the other thread.

My guess is you're trying to order a digital code which maybe isn't normal for your account, and thus tripped up a red flag. I could see digital codes being a popular item for hijacked accounts. They're just making sure it's you.

No. They used to but they stopped doing that a few years ago.

Agreed. Ive been buying $10 eshop gcs with the $5 monthly Gamestop coupons. So it would be additional 50% off to me.

Super tempting for Triangle Strategy. It just came out for Steam at full price so I was going to wait eventually for it to come into Game Pass (like Octopath did) but this will probably be the best price for it for a while. Maybe $40 on BF but either way, I'll probably bite on this now

Make sure you play the Triangle Strategy DEMO first. The game sucks. The visual "effects" look like garbage. And the audio acting sounds really badly forced & scripted. I wish they had just shown character portraits and used text only - it's THAT bad.
