I would get this right now instead of waiting. It's so incredibly cheap compared to recent months.
Eh sold out. goodluck next time.
Keep an eye out tomorrow, you might just get lucky.
Promised myself to only buy it if it's under $300. Not sure if I'll ever buy it lol.
Same, but don't know how much longer I can hold the promise.
Is the quality time you are missing on worth saving extra $39?
Yep, this is OzBargain. I also can't dent my budget ;)
It's only $29.85 cheaper than when I bought it last year… + now it has an un-exploitable hw revision.
Probably worth waiting until they release a game first.
Good luck. Gst will mean it'll be a while before we see that price.
Apologies for my ignorance how can i change the settings to US. when I do i can't give my local Australian address
Create a new account directly on US website. Enter a US address as Primary address then add a secondary Australian address. At the checkout select Australian address as delivery address.
excellent price!
Will the Switch hack ReiNX work ont this? will it be old firmware?
Even I am curious. But very hard to say.
There are two things to worry about
1, Hardware revision. This was changed a few months ago so retailers with faster turnover probably have the new hack proof switches. Google for a list of serials that are safe, otherwise you might be out of luck
2, Firmware version. Up until last week (FW 6.2 ) all versions were hackable. Afaik all switches ship with a lower version than that so it should be fine, just make sure you disable auto updates
CFW currently works with FW 6.1 and under on the older hardware revision consoles. However, Nintendo is much more secure about running custom code on their hardware, meaning that if you went online with a modified firmware and/or pirated games you're pretty much guaranteed a console ban
Any switch that you buy new these days is most likely going to be a model that has had the exploit patched. The firmware isn't the issue.
Unless you can check the serial numbers beforehand, you should not be buying a new switch if your goal is to mod it.
Don’t do hacks please, support these companies this is why gaming has moved to a new platform for P2W. And people who pirate illegal games should stop, why break the law ? Anyway there is no emulators working as of yet anyway.

Complete crap. Piracy has always been around, companies that are making mega profits are the ones adding in crappy dlc and lootboxes.
Switch is an amazing emulator machine, GBA / SNES etc are perfect and PS1 / N64 are getting pretty playable.
Not to mention PFBA (Final Burn Alpha) which is an amazing port of the Arcade emulator running all games at 100%.
How is Final Burn Alpha any better than MAME or RetroArch?
@serpserpserp: It's not, at least, not always. It doesn't even run half the games MAME does.
MAME has everything, FBA does not. So you'd reasonably think there has to be a reason FBA even exists, otherwise why would anyone bother? The reason is it generally has better emulation for the games it does have, especially on lower powered systems.
Second question regarding Retroarch:
Retroarch has an FBA core, so it's technically the same thing. However, I find dedicated emulators for different systems often work better than the "one size fits all" approach from Retroarch. I get better performance on the Switch with PFBA compared to the FBA retroarch core especially when running filters.
You can do the same with your phone though, with psp and ds too. Citra team said they're starting to work on 3ds emulator. So yeah, Switch emulation is cool, but I don't think it matters as much.
It's much nicer with a big screen and physical controls though.
@Merlict: You can get the physical control, in a form factor that's also pocketable.
But yeah, screen size being bigger is nice.
I think p2w model is simply more lucrative irrespective of any factors.
Fortnite, League of Legends etc. are free to play and they're the biggest money makers in their respective genre right now. Both of them are however not p2w. You only pay for skins and shitty dances.
Great stuff!
Followed the instructions from the original post and ordered it
Wouldn't let me pay by credit card so I used my paypal account instead
Xmas present sorted
Annnnnnd Poof Sold out
Good price.
is this code still working ???
Yeah worked for me still. Keep in mind you gotta buy through the Ebay mobile app for the code to work.
Great price! I think the cheapest so far? Gutted because I thought I missed it last night. Woke up this morning and saw the 'Out of stock' labelled removed so I jumped on it immediately. Thanks OP. Looking forward to Pokemon Let's Go!
Thanks, snaffled one!
I've changed my settings to united states but I can't find the product via search. Any ideas?
Add it to your cart from the desktop.
Search thegamesmenau as a user
Thanks! Just picked one up
For anyone having trouble make sure you
Sign up for a eBay.com account
Enter a US Postal address (like a hotel) as primary addresss, au address as non primary
Change the app region to US
Hey guys,
I can't seem to get it to work. I have changed it to a US address, changed the country and all, but I get the message that the seller doesn't post to your location and the code won't work. Even though I have an AU address too.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Same with me …tried all different things to get it to work but no luck
pops up in my cart when i change to Australia region but disappears when I change to US
UPDATE - its in my cart via US and changed to AU address at check out but can't enter code.
Maybe its over?
Keep getting the error: can't apply coupon code
Made a completely new account, tried to use the code and now getting the message that the code has expired
Worked for me! Thanks so much, was wanting to pick up a Switch for a while
Any tips?
I'm not sure if the code is still working; it said it ends at 8pm EST which is 12pm for us.
But if it is still working this is what I did:
1. Went onto ebay US and made an account; I put in a random hotel as my US address and used my AU phone number to get the account verified.
2. Added the US address as my primary address and my actual address as my secondary address.
3. Went onto the listing on desktop (from Go To Deal) and added it to my cart.
4. Went onto the ebay app (you can just download it from the Australian Google Play/App store) and then checked out. It will say that it doesn't ship to the primary US address, so just change it to your AU address. Add a form of payment, put in the coupon code (only works on the app) and you should be done.
Hopefully the code still works so that this is actually useful…
Yeah I'm getting 'code has expired' so that makes sense, I think it's ended now :(
Works for me as well.
What I did:
1) Use desktop to create a new eBay.com account
- Go to the account information tab
- There's a page for your Personal Information, in that add in a registration address (anywhere in the US) with your Australian mobile
- There's another page for Addresses, in that add in your Australian delivery address
2) Add the Nintendo Switch to the cart on the desktop
3) Login to your account using the eBay app on the phone
4) You should be able to see the item in the cart on the app
5) Check out
Afaik it has expired (8.07pm et)
That seemed to work, but code as expired… damn.
Try with the Aus code at 5pm I suppose
If you purchased less than 48 hours ago you can get a voucher from eBay price guarantee. Worked for me price matching to Amazon and got a $26 voucher back which I used for Pokemon Lets Go coming to $388 all together.
What seller did you buy Pokemon let's go from? How much was it?
So will this come with a US power supply?
