that would explain why the games were 100 bucks when we were looking at them
in Canada
Other than that, I have heard nothing
100 dollars on top of 14% sales tax
thanks nintendo
good job
time to get an american zipcode and buy from the US e-shop i guess
I am seeing a lot of articles
on this
http://www.hardcoregamer.com/2017/06/09/upcoming-nintendo-switch-games-will-cost-99-99-in-canada/260317/
Although
A lot of people are also saying it is a placeholder price
and that this is an overreaction
or maybe it was testing the waters for a negative reaction Keeper
This man speaks the truth though
This is why shoppers is the fucking best
My mom collects points and gets like, 200-300 free dollars worth of shit a year every christmas
that seems like they'd go out of business if everyone started doing it
and got me 200 off my switch
Apparently no one fucking powergames shoppers
it is actually one of the best stores
the lack a lot of game stock though
it is hard to find games, ez to find switches
so you could get every physical release for even less than i'm getting them for
If I powergamed it
you could get mk8dx for $25
Shoppers does 20x the points events all the time
so it is easy to get a lot of points
gods, that is disgusting
welp time to move to canada

Shoppers is actually the godsend of stores my dude
It has almost nothing, but for what it does have, it fucking rocks
Apparently shoppers is a subsidiary of Loblaw
They were bought by them iirc
they sell drugs, so thats probably how they can afford all the sales
this is the standard, with there being 20x the points events every week or so
is it 10C = 10pts?
$.10 = 10pts
You can only redeem descrite quantities
So it actually is worth more the more you redeem at once
and idk which is correct the 5 or the 10 for points earned
thats a really nice system
nintendo should look at this
Shoppers is not that big tbh
1,253 stores total
But yeah
this is one of the best things of being Canadian
overall things are more expensive, but we get stores like shoppers
We do not get as crazy of deals for things like black friday though
no where close
it looks like nintendo only has 1 store outside of japan
thats 1252 less than shoppers
Keepo
Shoppers likely also can afford it because they partner with RBC
and do a combo credit card deal
to try and get people to sign up for RBC optimum point reward cards
Oh, I forgot the best part
Once a year in december, you can redeem 250 dollars
using your points
So if you shop stratigically, you can usually get 250 dollars free a year, while purchasing the things you need anyways
how much do the pikachu controllers cost up there?
they are apparently $11 at gamestop for us
what is it called
exactly
