Nintendo eShop

So what's believed to be the first jailbreak of the Switch 2 was reported last week.

Using the now delisted program Smile Basic 4, which is like a programming software from the eShop, the exploit lets a user run homebrew, reverse engineer, and mod Switch 2 games and backup save files.

Since it's a software-only exploit, it doesn't seem like a full jailbreak of the system yet.

Okay, interesting.

I need

those weapons.

Somewhat hilariously, back in 2016, Smile Basic on the 3DS eShop was delisted after also being used for jailbreaking.

Huh.

You can buy this and be confident that you'll have a good gaming experience trying to get the video game industry back on its feet in the United States.

And now I don't know if there's as much of an incentive for that because if you look at the Nintendo eShop, it's full of crap and has been since Switch 1 at least.

And I wonder if those... um, storefront digital storefront holders are less inclined to get rid of that because they're getting 30% off of it anyway.

Right.

begin to really speculate on i mean the whole time i was at retro nintendo of america had very little actual authority over any game stuff meaningfully so um i would do you think there'll be

metro prime 2 remastered thing no you don't think so either it's interesting because um with um so when the metroid ravenous trailer dropped it caused Metroid Dread to skyrocket, apparently, in the eShop globally.

And even Metroid Prime went up as well.

So, I don't know.

So it's unnerving.

Anyway, there's a Halloween sale on the eShop, which usually there is, and this is quite a big one, up to 70% off certain titles.

I wondered if you had any recommendations.

Like I can see Resident Evil Biohazard, which is seven, is there.

He's better at these things.

Yeah.

So published by Nintendo, yeah, I guess HAL is part of Nintendo, I think, or somehow they're very closely related and I think they're also responsible for Kirby, which explains why it's on the eShop or coming to the Switch Online Classics.

That's cool.

So if that's a system that if you like to play in the handheld mode, it's fantastic there.

And so if you're looking for a sale, this is one that I can absolutely see myself jumping on the eShop during holiday sale, Thanksgiving time or Christmas time.

And I'm like, oh, sweet.

It's $12 off.

Yeah, I've fallen for it once.

I wanted to get TCG Card Shop Simulator, and I bought what I thought was it on the Nintendo eShop, and it wasn't.

It wasn't it.

Instead of being called TCG Card Shop, it was called TCG Shop Simulator or something like that.

Okay.

could see that though you know I could see it being something like that I do think there's a chance of it being Bully I do think of there's a chance of it being GTA 4 probably I take any of them to be honest they're all great games so and Bully's a fantastic game it's a lot of fun maybe not as PC as it used to be but still very good time then for Mike's deals of the week It's a really good time to be buying on the eShop, but I'm going to start with some physicals first.

And if you want to pick up Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition from Amazon, you can pick it up on the Switch 2 for £26.97 at the moment, which I think is a really good price.

You've also got Luigi's Mansion 2 HD, and that is on Amazon for £31.79, which is as low as it's ever been for the physicals.

I'm waiting until it's sub £10.00. which I might be waiting forever, but it's a really good looking game, really well reviewed.

So those are my suggestions.

There's a whole bunch though on the eShop right now.

They've just released a whole bunch more deals.
