You'll see a proper IE site appear the day Brexit is confirmed. The domain already exists, redirecting to Amazon UK atm, and they've opened up Prime to Irish accounts. If I'm not mistaken no other territory has Prime without a regional Amazon site.

They have already ruled that out, unless they are going to change their mind. The ie domain was vacant for a long time. I believe they purchased it for business/tax reasons maybe.

They may use it like amazon.nl, either way I wouldn't be banking on amazon.ie anytime soon.

Looks like they are doing a u-turn on Ireland. They had said that the Irish market was too small, so maybe they monitored it and changed their mind, either way it's good news.

Grandia collection better be in that sale or else

Sale is live now and Grandia is down to €28.

Definitely some good offers in the sale. Assassin's Creed 3 for €15 got me, as did Divinity II, Sayonara Wildhearts and Monster Boy. Just over €60 for the lot while using my gold points

Picked up Divinity on Xbox a few weeks back and loving it so far. If Switch version had cross save with Xbox I'd be very tempted, great game

Didn't realize Ashen was on Switch (and 20% off). Lovely art style and I enjoyed it on GamePass.

I gave up scrolling through the Sales tab on the eShop as there is so much trash in the eShop its drowning out good deals.
From my wishlist nothing is really tempting me, I might try the Banner Saga for €5 but I was hoping Slay the Spire & Return of the Obra Dinn would be on sale.

Today's free QubicGames game is:

I think I bought too much... my revolut ended up refusing more SA payments at the end

snowstreams

Is there any trick to get your Revolut to work in SA? I tried buying a game off the US store with my newly created US account. But it failed to let me use Revolut. Prepaid cards seems to be the only option there.

Nope none at all, it should just work.

Today's free QubicGames game is #RaceDieRun

RobbingBandit

Not sure if this has been posted before found it last night looking for prices for eshop games might be useful to you world traveler types.

Mr E

Yep, I use it weekly. It's getting a bit unwieldy though. Too many games.

RobbingBandit

Very hard to navigate I was searching the Atelier series had to scroll through handy site if you've got patience to look through it.

I'm queuing the page of the next game, so I can just purchase on the morning.
At least, that was the plan, unfortunately it forces me to log in again and I then have to search for the title again...
Bugger....

RobbingBandit

Look for robonauts on the eshop search page click on quibicgames icon and it'll bring you to their internal listing the free game is 100% discount in the description that's how I've been doing it myself.

Ni No Kuni 1 is €30 in Smyths. Only Claremorris and Drogheda have stock though.

It's ~€32 on the Mexico or US eShop, over €40 everywhere else.

According to NintendoLife, the final Qubic giveaway on Christmas Eve will be Space Pioneer.

RobbingBandit

Are any of their games not in this freebie worth playing/paying for?

I see they have a cheap 3D game called mini trains for 1€.
It seems good for kids who like train tracks anyway.
It's a port of a VR game, seems like qubic do a lot of porting.

Underwhelming.

The penultimate free qubic game is mana spark available now.

Mana-Spark

snowstreams

Looks like Fysh was correct with space pioneer alright.
It should be free in 10 minutes.
It was a fun 10 days following it anyway.

That was a nice bit of fun ahead of the Christmas, nevertheless.
I'm not sure Qubic were losing a whole lot of money on games no one was buying, but it's certainly raised their profile.

I'd say they sold a lot of games with people trying to get the chain going again after missing a game.

They got a whole 99c from me!
But you make a good point
