Sir Taxalot has got just the nicest way of looking at this! Indeed! There are so many worse things to have stuck on a tv screen. I could have been playing some WWII game and paused it with a dirty great swastika on there. *emails Graham Linehan with idea for script* |

From Lewie's post - You can basically setup a Nintendo account from any country You can pay for stuff on those using a credit card like Revolut (which will do the various currencies and not charge you for non sterling fee's) https://eshop-prices.com/ This website gives you the costs for anything on the eshop and will show you which ones are worth region shifting for. |

Did they employ children who have been blind since birth then tie their hands behind their back and make them type code with their feet after being submerged in ice water whilst wearing thick socks to do the art for Super Burger King? |

Your other options are slightly more limited : 1) Pay with your normal credit card and incur a non-standard fee , that can eat into the savings your getting by getting the games from another region 2) Buy 'pre paid' cards for the other regions , I've done this for both the US and Canadian store (and both the US and Canadian playstation store) via these guys http://www.pcgamesupply.com/ |

Well revolut does work for me, (after some hassling), but the problem is that it doesn't work with the american nintendo shop ..since they won't give me an american virtual card.. |

So Revolut is probably worthy of a thread of its own and I'll set that up in a sec and link it here but you dont need an american virtual card you can use any virtual card with your details and thats it - if you were in America you can quite happily use a non american Mastercard to pay for stuff and they charge it the same as any other. Your only thing would be you would need some currency on Revolut to pay for it but i'm assuming you've topped that up. Perhaps not on the thread but if you want to message me with the error you get when using it i can see if i can spot whats wrong.

Yes i topped it up, helpdesk say the virtual card is issued basis of your id , so probably dutch, and they are uk them selves... and that is not accepted by the american shop.. |

I've never been that into Pokemon games, but it's hard not to feel positive about the stuff in the video. Even if the first twenty seconds looks like some AR burglary app. |

I am going to get MARIO TENNIS ACES for when my chum comes over for his annual visit, although I suspect we'll play it in Classic mode so he doesn't get annoyed by all the special moves and me breaking his racquet. The GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT we have is that I will ceremonially purchase and install the game upon his arrival so he knows I haven't been doing any sneaky practice, and that we're both going into it as n00bs. |

'There are some Mario Tennis Aces players who are pretty furious right now. Redditor Ventus55 said forcing quickfire matches on players "removes all the deep analysis you sort through when battling a tough opponent. It belittles the mental warfare you and your opponent are having as you try to outplay one another. It dispatches the adaptability of techniques you need to utilise when your opponent has figured your playstyle out. It erases the incredible comeback victories you can have after being down 90 per cent of the match. It completely shatters the rewarding feeling of fighting tooth-and-nail for 20+ minutes to come out the victor by a tiny margin. It makes for very shallow gameplay for most matches because there isn't enough time to feel like you are developing a good strategy against your opponent."' Oh, come on. |

It's not a surprise that an arcade tennis game uses the 3 game format, is it? Sega tennis was the same iirc. Either way, it won't be as good as Pete Sampras tennis on the megadrive |

It's a surprise as all previous Mario Tennis games have let you customise match lengths since the dawn of time. I mean that guy above is obviously over-egging the pudding but it's a fair criticism. |

 Darius is coming to Switch. http://www.japanesenintendo.com/post/175465812744 Price is a bit of a gushing head-wound though. ~£40 for the basic version, or £125 if you want the full package. |
