As an almost 40 year old mom, I often see my passion for video games as something I should keep to myself…but I feel like this is a safe space, where I can admit my little addiction 😊 just bought Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen by the way 😎
As an almost 40 years old father, I make no apologies for being a gamer; I used to play with my dad in my youth, as I now play with my daughter and niece. It's a perfectly wholesome hobby in spite of all the violence it often involves :P
I recently saw a comment on another video saying that a backlog is not supposed to be viewed as a to do list that needs to be done but rather a wine cellar where you can gather and collect the finest games, occasionally indulging in one or the other, and I really like that perspective 😆
Unfortunately you have to set up a Walmart account requiring mobile number confirmation (couldn't fit mine in box) to buy, so it's a no-go for me. Unless someone knows some workaround
It’s DECEMBER already - SHEEEESH! What little deals has Marioclause lined up!? Let me know if you’re buying anything - most are the cheapest ever price - oof! Mark
5 dec i turn 59 and still love video games. I have seen it all, starting when i was 16 years old on a commodore 16 and later on amiga 500 an 1200. After that on PC and still on PC. Played on all PlayStations, Xboxes and now i have a PS5, XBox series X and a Nintendo switch. I play a lot on my switch because of the playability (handheld or TV). I play now core keeper on my switch and have a blast. Thank you for this nice video and i can tell that you’re never to old to game! 😉🙏🏻
I’m thrilled to share that I managed to survive Black Friday! Although I may need a wellness check-in after my pending purchases show up on my credit card bill. 😂
Happy to report Canadians can purchase the digital copy of TOTK from Walmart US. If it requires a US Mailing address look up a Walmart store address and enter that, the code will be emailed anyway so it doesn’t matter what the US address says. However if it’s any other digital game make sure it says code will be emailed and is not a code in a box.
I got the digital version of TOTK from Walmart for $30! What a steal!! Also Ember Knights is on sale for $10! But I had $10 worth of gold points so I got that one for free! Both are great fun games! Best Black Friday I’ve had in a long time!
Already blew my gaming budget on Steamworld Heist 2 and Alan Wake since they're both on sale. That Tears Of The Kingdom being so low priced is hard to pass up though I'm glad you mentioned it
Europa is such a lovely game, it's really worth trying out. Watched the announcement trailer, played the demo and was immediately hooked. Absolutely a gem in all aspects. ❤
I wasn't going to get anything but I ended up with persona 5, unicorn overlord, star ocean second story r, and shin megami tensei! Your reviews quite literally is why I bought each one! Love y'all! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
The tears of the kingdom deal (digital and physical) is at walmart. It is required to have a US number to sign up and verify an account... so it's a bit difficult when im in NZ 😢
Cool collection. About Hideo, when his team couldn't finish Metal Gear Rising and Platinum got involved they made a whole documentary about that process.
Imagine recording this video from bed and only realizing once it’s up on UA-cam we can all hear your alarm clock going off the entire time you’ve been speaking 🤪🤪🤪
I think you're spot on about Tarantino, especially once upon a time in Hollywood. That film was an absolute flex: 'look how much I can get away with'. But most of his movies are masterpieces so... he kinda earned it...?
Just playing the video in the bg and not really watching. I can't handle the sales anymore. But I'm leaving the mandatory view + like 😅 Cheers to you guys for keeping up with all the crazy sales, updates, patches and reviews. I can hardly keep up just watching the stuff. 😂 So yea. Hope you get a break with family down the line this month. 😅☃️
Curse you guys! I didn't know that Dredge had DLCs (I know...I dropped the ball) so of course I had to get them. And now I'm replaying Dredge and sh*tting my pants all over again. I'm too old to live in fear every night! 🙂
I impulse bought West of Loathing for $5 CAD today and it’s loads of fun. I think the sale ends tonight. There’s tons of shovelware games on the shop, unfortunately, but there are also some gems and this channel is really helpful finding them. 👍
Beacon Pines, Roots of Pacha AND Bear and Breakfast are on sale? It's time to curl up with your Switch, some hot cocoa and cozy games! Maybe add a mince pie too. 😆
Oh wow that Railbound game looks great, really love those Cuphead visuals , im grabbing that one after this message very curious what that faint alarm noise was that is bothering you when ya chillaxing, nothing wrong with chilling on ya bed with ya Switch, me n the misses do the same when we co-op Sea of Stars while the kids fight over Fortnite, we're considering getting other games for them and banning them from that game, they've been warned before to knock off there harpie screeching 🤣 the co-op update for sea of stars is heavenly, we loved that game before but this is next level fun, what a phenomenal game, would love to see you cover a co-op review on that game, definitely grabbing some games this sale, thanks again heaps for your coverage on this, take care until the next one 😊
Just thought I’d let you guys know I was in the top 0.1% of SwitchUp fans according to UA-cam’s year-end Gaming review. I watched 58x more content than the average SwitchUp viewer. LOL.
This video was a rollercoaster of emotions, oh pumpkin Jack looks good, no sale in NA, oh trinity fusion looks interesting, but my backlog, oh good deal on Dredge, but I already have it, but the DLC is ALSO on sale, but my backlog... still going to watch every sale video!
Mentioning Medievil, it's on PlayStation plus premium. I've been meaning to revisit Medievil since it was 1st released. There is a Medievil remastered now! I have had pumpkin jack on my wishlist for over 2 years! I need it!
Despite its Richard Scarry-like art style, Beacon Pines is NOT a children’s story. In case you were thinking it looked like a cute game to play with kids.
I'm really loving WAND Project; the upgrade system is one of the most interesting I've seen in a Vampire Survivors-like game. And I wholeheartedly recommend Trinity Fusion, a game so good I finished it on Switch shortly after finishing it on Xbox. It takes a lot from Dead Cells, but when has that been a bad thing.
Thanks for the breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
I looked on Amazon and some of the reviews on the MGS Master Collection say it didn't include any of the Solid games on the disk in the physical cart, but they have to be downloaded?
I yesterday picked up TOTK Physical from Walmart for only $30.00. Usually $69.99. That's a savings of $39.99. Couldn't pass that up. Was gonna pick it up later anyway. 👀
I am actually thrilled about railbound, i have been looking for a chill game like that for a relaxing time. Sometimes the best things comes i small packages.
I traded in 4 games to get Bloodborne, Witcher 3 and The Outer Worlds physical copies and it still cost me $60 so I'm all tapped out unless there is a cracking game on sale for under $10 on the eshop. Thanks for these sale updates though, my backlog mountain makes Everest look like a mole hill thanks to you gents lol. Cheers SwitchUp! Any idea as to why Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 and 2 remastered has disappeared from the eshop without communication from the developer?
@hangingon fully agree, i brought it digitally years ago but through fear of losing access to my PS account I wanted a physical copy of it in my library to ensure play for years to come. Its so awesome that FromSoftware games get so much love despite their reputation for tearing ones soul asunder lol
@@hangingon fully agree. I have it digitally but wanted a physical copy for safety, just in case I lose acess to my PS account. Been a long time since I played unfortunately but I look forward to a fresh start when I return to Yharnam and begin my hunt anew. Fear the old blood, good hunter
Hi @switchup team. I’m fairly new to your channel. Enjoying the sales videos and picked up Portal after watching your last video. I played Portal 1 & 2 on PC a long time ago and am looking forward to playing them again. Also want to share it with my 10 year old son.
I think you mentioned about DOOM ETERNAL on a recent video so to keep my backlog at bay I purchased the game along with both DLC campaigns for under £30
Quite like the new pricing info graphics at the bottom of the screen. Maybe its just a change of font but it looks very smart. (Maybe its been like this for a while and I wasn't paying attention!😀)
Tears Of The Kingdom for THIRTY DOLLARS??? I just sprayed a mouthful of Wotsits across my keyboard,,, (The new "Cheese Toastie" ones... they're rather nice)
Does bayonetta 2 ever go on sale? I played and beat 1 and bought 3 on sale ages ago figuring I'd pick 2 when it goes on sale..... but it never happened!
I'm so stuffed from the Black Friday sale here in the US, that my wallet is empty but my switch is bloated with backlog. Also if you were watching the 25/11 sale on Walmart you could have snagged the physical version of Zelda ToK they only had a limited number on sale. AND I SNAGED ONE AT MIDNIGHT OF 24/11!! LET'S GO!! BACKLOG!!
As an almost 40 year old mom, I often see my passion for video games as something I should keep to myself…but I feel like this is a safe space, where I can admit my little addiction 😊 just bought Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen by the way 😎
Never be ashamed. Im in my 30s and love video games and anime. Why not! 🎉🎉
@@SiobhanR28 yeah why not, you’re so right ❤️ thank you 😊

There is no shame in loving video games. Video games are awesome! 😊
Snap - same age. love having you here mate! Mark

Love that perspective! I really needed to see that haha
Oh great, now I have an actual excuse that makes sense ... 😁 _Backlog, you cannot shrink!_ (think Gandalf, _"[Balrog, ] You cannot pass!"_ 🧙🪄)
Thanks for validating me buying games that are on sale all the time haha
I only just recently bought a switch and found this channel amazing content no BS just straight to the point and giving us the information.
$30 for TOTK!? Now that is a dang good deal!
Crazy price! Mark

@@SwitchUpYt Thank you very much! I’m from the Netherlands btw 😉
I’m thrilled to share that I managed to survive Black Friday! Although I may need a wellness check-in after my pending purchases show up on my credit card bill. 😂
😂 ❤❤❤
My Amazon cart is full again but so far I have resisted! 😵
Beacon Pines is *so* good. Anyone who enjoys a good story owes it to themself to check it out. One of my favorite hidden gems from the past few years.

That comment on Metal Gear was spot on 😂😂😂😂
Wouldnt have played Dredge (probably) without you guys! Thx for your review on that! Out of the last DLC they are amazing!
100% bang on about Tarantino haha - clearly he’s a genius but if any other director made *certain* QT films people would think they’re insane
@@DG12th definitely haha. Mark
Thank you for these sale highlights! As always thanks for the great video and lineup of potential buys! ❤
I don't know why Mark's random tangents to everyday subjects are some of my favorite moments in the videos.. but hey I'll take it.
@@Gothicpolar cheers mate I certainly do like to waffle! Mark

What?? Railbound for under 1 euro? I can manage that 😂. Cheers guys!
I'd like to know who in the hell isn’t tempted at TotK for $30.
Since BOTW is just better
Pumpkin Jack at that price is a must, great game.
Already blew my gaming budget on Steamworld Heist 2 and Alan Wake since they're both on sale. That Tears Of The Kingdom being so low priced is hard to pass up though I'm glad you mentioned it
Btw I bought the physical version of Prince of Persia for 20 Bucks on Amazon
Yeah that’s a really good price! Mark
That's a damn good deal!
I always cry a little bit inside when i see a game i recently buyed go into deep discount. just heartbreaking. Cheers from uruguay.
I was thinking the same while watching the video. Saludos desde Chile.
Europa is such a lovely game, it's really worth trying out. Watched the announcement trailer, played the demo and was immediately hooked. Absolutely a gem in all aspects. ❤

Don't you dare forget to tell us about the alarm next week!
@@Joeyjoejo1306 hahaha it abruptly just stopped right after finishing the recording. Mark
The tears of the kingdom deal (digital and physical) is at walmart. It is required to have a US number to sign up and verify an account... so it's a bit difficult when im in NZ 😢
But al least now your not a lier. Committing small scale tax evasion. Screwing your country out of there $ like this channel encourages.
💯% facts.
I was able to pick up a physical Tears of the Kingdom from my Walmart for $30, oh happy days!!!
Cool collection. About Hideo, when his team couldn't finish Metal Gear Rising and Platinum got involved they made a whole documentary about that process.
Imagine recording this video from bed and only realizing once it’s up on UA-cam we can all hear your alarm clock going off the entire time you’ve been speaking 🤪🤪🤪
"More Tea vicar?" Brilliant 😂
Great video, going to download a couple of these. Thanks for the summary!
F1 and SwitchUp Sales... it's Sunday!
Glorious times haha ❤ Mark
So excited for Switchmas! It’s Christmas time!
TOTK at $30 is insane! I think I need to grab it!
Love it when you include some good physical copy sales!
Great video thanks 👍 Having fun with Wand Project
I really hope nine sols goes on sale quickly because I wanted to check it out but not for 30$

❤ yeah it’s got some cracking DLC - Mark
I impulse bought West of Loathing for $5 CAD today and it’s loads of fun. I think the sale ends tonight.
There’s tons of shovelware games on the shop, unfortunately, but there are also some gems and this channel is really helpful finding them. 👍
Mato Anomalies is still the only Black Friday game I picked up, I spent some money instead on the R36S. If you know you know!
😮 pumpkin jack!!! I might be able to finally get that. Thanks Mark, I'd have missed it if you hadn't put it here 🎉
Oooooo thanks for the tears of the kingdom shout out, just bought mine, and it’s physical
I know where all my vacation time and Christmas Bonus is going... this is why I have a list of backlogs XD
Metal gear solid 3 is, and possibly will always be, my favourite game ever!! Will see the remake...
Great video definitely need to pick up Dredge. My backlog is growing fast, but I'm not complaining
Pumpkin Jack was really fun! Played it last year and enjoyed it thoroughly ☺️
Beacon Pines, Roots of Pacha AND Bear and Breakfast are on sale? It's time to curl up with your Switch, some hot cocoa and cozy games! Maybe add a mince pie too. 😆
I saw totk on the intro and thought ha, bank balance is safe for today IV already got that, then I saw Europa...😂
Hahaha yeah that’s a nice little one for sure! Mark
They got me good this Black Friday, Loop Hero, Risk of Rain 2, and The Batman Arkham Collection(Physical). I never knew how good Risk of Rain 2 was!
Love your videos, making me pick up my switch this holiday season after leaving it idle for a while.
Got TOTK, thanks a bunch! Was really looking forward to getting Triangle Strategy, but it's not available for purchase on the eShop US. 😢
SwitchUp coming in clutch with the Zelda ToTK deal! I'm looking forward to jumping into Zelda on Switch for the first time ever. Cheers all around!
Sweet! I was looking for good short games. I need these so when my friends borrows my switch, they won't touch my main games save files 🤣
Sweet buttered crumpets! A few more hours to enjoy these sales!
Nice thumbnail bait. Metal Gear Solid 3 isn't on sale.
It is but anyway..
Its December? Shut the front door 😂😅 Ive spent today playing Metaphor. I feel like its never going to end, but man its good. My GOTY ❤
Oh yeah you said you were playing that one. Mark
Whew, I thought you would make me broke with this one 😅😅😅
Picked up Trinity Fusion. Thank you.
Do you know why the Australian eShop always miss out on a bunch of these sales? I love your content btw :)
So many good games.
Let this sale be over soon...
Want to buy them all!

Finally time to dive into Dredge!
Its SO darn good.
Man, it’s a shame to think games like pumpkin Jack can get missed so easily. That’s a pick up right there

Switch up game exclusive Mark and the Quest to sSilence the Siren. It's already a barjain when it releases! Lol.
Will definitely be picking up Citizen Sleeper and couldn’t ignore Unicorn Overlord at that price (even if, to me at least, it looks confusing AF) 😁
Unicorn Overlord helps you out a lot as you go, don’t sweat it. I’m partway through and really enjoying it!
@ Ah nice! That’s good to hear 😁 Cheers!
Great suggestions as always.
I picked up Core Keeper and have been addicted.
Picked up DLC for Dredge and Fire Emblem Engage, respectively. Does this count as 'adding to the backlog'? I 🤔
