Hi,

Interested if anyone has a Nintendo Switch they are wanting to sell.

My kids are pooling their savings so trying to avoid the lottery and potential disappointment of a TradeMe purchase.

Games not necessarily a requirement but Animal Crossing, Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 would all be considered too.

Please PM me if you are interested. Based in Wellington, but happy to pay for shipping if needed.

Thanks

Simon.

Yeah, I agree about being extra-vigilant with s/h Switches; my kids purchased one off TM, and we've had problems with both Joycons - from day one both slipped out from the device without needing to press the buttons; further, one I fixed after purchasing parts off eBay (it was the buttons for two-player mode so not critical), but the other stopped working at all and I had to buy a s/h one from EB Games. Kinda wished we'd been more careful plus knew before purchasing how dodgy the Joycons are.

We brought a switch lite over the holidays , couldn’t believe how expensive the games are even second hand compared to the xbox

... which is a great reason to buy physical games not digital, as it's relatively easy to recover most of the cost by selling them on once the kids are bored and ready to move on.
