My usual console accessories buying rule is always an extra controller followed by a charging station. I did that for my PS4 Pro and Nintendo Switch OLED.
My Sony PS5 “Slim” Digital Edition comes only with one DualSense Wireless Controller, so it is only natural to get another one so that I can play a two players game.
Sony PS5 “Slim” will be officially launching in Singapore on the 20th December 2023. I put the word “Slim” in quotes because Sony is not calling this PS5 Slim. They are still calling it the PS5, which makes it hard to differentiate. PS5 “Slim” model number is CFI-2000.
Sony revised the PS5 model once last year, and people already named it PS5 “Light,” and the model number is CFI-1200. For lack of a better word, the original PS5 “Fat” is CFI-1000.
After much procrastination since 2017, I finally decided to get the Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) after Li Xiang approves the purchase.
The RRP for Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) in Singapore is S$549 and is being distributed by Maxsoft. However, during 11/11 Singles’ Day, I managed to get it for S$481.85.
I bought it at the same place, Bic Camera Shinjuku West Store, for JP¥2,040 (S$26), excluding tax. In Singapore, the official retail price of it is S$36.90.
The official retail price is S$619 on Lazada, but on 11/11, it drops further to S$559. On top of that, Sony Store on Lazada is throwing in an S$50 voucher for a minimum spend of S$500. To make the deal even sweeter, I have an S$10 Lazada voucher, and I paid using UOB, which gives me an additional S$10 discount.
