The links don't work for Canada
Yeah website breaks when I try to login
I'm good, but I hope others will enjoy these (as soon as the links/site work correctly for everyone, that is)!
Super. Thank you! This will give me a bit of a discount towards Ash vs. Evil Dead & Sonic X Shadow
Just impulse bought Silent Hill 2 so I'm probably good on game purchases for awhile (other than already having a voucher to use on Mario Party) but hey, lot of stuff of interest on the horizon right now for other folks.
Wow %5 off. Calm down. Are you sure you won't lose money with this discount?
UK links not working
I'll check out a new Switch Membership and Expansion tomorrow when I get paid. €40 is a no brainer.
Not sure what I'll be spending it on, but always worth picking up some discounted credit!
@Sabruka @AndyRogan It all seems to be working fine for me, but I've asked our code store partners to look into what might be causing issues for you.
In the meantime, try heading through this link and see if this helps: codes.nintendolife.com
Maybe it's just me, but 5% discounts seem kind of insulting.
@AngelSlayer I agree! I feel like they look down on me as if I was a beggar. Gimme a penny, sir! Dear sir, gimme a penny!
@AngelSlayer There has been a 10% discount before IIRC, but 5% is still better than nothing, right? Plus you can stack discounts in the eShop - vouchers, sales, gold points...
Although I will add myself to the list of people who can't access the site!
@ryancraddock @Buizel The address has a ' www. ' too much in the begining. Just removing that, and it worked for me.
5% is still nice, and you're supporting NL.
The site rejected my auto-generated password even though it matched the criteria, then it rejected my valid UK phone number, then it rejected my valid UK postcode (country is of course set to UK). Probably needs some work guys.
Edit: it also doesn't work with Safari auto-fill for credit cards. Not really sure why you'd make it as difficult as possible to buy from you.
Edit 2: "Something went wrong" error after completing payment, even though my card was immediately charged. Bravo, guys.
Edit 3: For anyone interested/concerned, despite all the above, and having to remove the "0" from the beginning of my phone number and use a totally different, random US zip code, the code did in fact appear in "My Account" after all. Honestly for 5%, this is too sketchy to be worth it imo.
Well, I nearly got through to buying a 25 pound voucher, then got a "400 Bad Request
Request Header Or Cookie Too Large
nginx"
And now none of the links work for me.
(UK)
@jmap Same. It didn't like my postcode or phone number, both valid.
Guess I will try again later.
@AngelSlayer I mean, if someone said “here, I’ll give you £50 if you give me £47.5”, you’d be like, “cool!” Use that money for something on discount on your wish list, use a few gold coins even, and earn a few more… are you still insulted?
@ryancraddock page still not working, removing the www gets the 40 bad request error
5% off? Holy, Batman, it must be Christmas!
@Mana_Knight That is all I get too!
Will any of these work for New Zealand?
@booker_steve Oh, boo.
Hope this gets fixed.
@Mana_Knight Yeah it makes no sense. Strangely this happened to me on the PureXBOX codes site, but not the old Nintendolife Codes site.
@Mana_Knight So I just logged in using Chrome on an incognito window. Edited my address details and date of birth etc. Now it works!
@booker_steve Alas, looks like I will miss out.
Tried again....popped a card in the card and went to check out.
"400 Bad Request
Request Header Or Cookie Too Large
nginx"
Not to be again this time around....
@Ryancraddock - can this please be looked at for next time around? Not sure if it is something that I am doing wrong.
I'm from the UK and I tried to buy a code but the site wouldn't accept my postal code. Maybe next time.
