How much did the Switch cost again?, because of the external hard drive and ethernet adapter..........$600? lol Mandatory Switch purchases Screen protector ($10) SD Card ($20-$80) Pro Controller ($70) The Switch is about a $400+ system to bring into acceptable compliance. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bought a package of 3 screen protectors for $8. 128GB microSD card for $24. And just bought a Pro controller for $40. In other words, I got all of this for less than 1 year of XBL Gold and a couple of months of Xbox Game Pass. Don't talk to me about hidden fees, rubberdub. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your anecdotes from around black friday have zero bearing on general pricing and MSRP's found regularly in stores or online shops throughout the year. It's $400+ for the Switch to fall into the standards of acceptability as a console. Edited December 5, 2018 by DynamiteCop! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh that portable hard drive...........yup thats gotta be $120 at least. microSD card, oh year, that's like $80. Screen protector.....its a Belkin, super high quality, so like $40. I love the idea that I bought a brand new Wii U in 2012, and a brand new Switch in 2017 for almost the same amount of money as lemmings spent buying a LAUNCH Xbox One in 2013. lol And to think you guys had to buy a second console. And for some, a third! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember Bing rewards like 4 years ago, I signed up for it. I think I got most of my initial points like linking accounts or something. How much goddamn Bing usage would a person need to do in order to pay off an Xbox Live subscription? LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,308 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Wait a minute........five minutes of typing words in Bing and then hitting search? How many Bing searches is that? 10 seconds of typing and then hitting Enter. 6 searches per minute. So like 30 Bing searches per day? Maybe I could achieve that if I erased all of my bookmarks.

LOL No :/ Using Bing as your search engine gets you points. I'm not sure how many but you get X amount of points per X amount of searches . So basically just using Bing gets you points . Then there are multiple surveys per day you get points from . Takes only a few minutes . You get points for streaks and also buying games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
