What would I need to do? Buy a redemption code? Where should I do that?

Amazon, Best Buy, Target (kinda broke street date but wouldn't allow download)

https://ec.nintendo.com/my/ is for switch games and is down.

E: I got to the page and it didn't have a redeem notice like some sites said would be there

Thank you! Looks like i'm in the same boat regardless. Hopefully as more people give up this problem solves itself?

Ok look, there is enough bandwidth for one of us to download the game at a time, so let's all get in a line. I'll go first and the next poster can go behind me. Seems fair.

I managed to get through long enough to start downloading -- it's a slow download though, and I can't get back into the eshop.

They're likely slammed.

Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time
For y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
I was not offended
For I knew I had to rise above it all
Or drown in my own shit
i got it

here's what i did:
restart switch
from the unlock screen, tap the splatoon 2 out now ad on the left
on the news post on the top right will have "related products: splatoon 2"
tap that to open the eshop it takes you directly to the splatoon 2 page
from there hope you can get through payment

even if you get an error at the end of payment it may still go through. i was irritated that i got so far only to get errored out but it worked anyway.

If the eShop still gives anyone issues, you can buy it from the store here: http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/splatoon-2-switch

It started downloading on my Switch within a few seconds of completing the purchase.

You can also buy through Amazon digital, which is what I did, but then you still have to enter the code. But then you don't have to worry about entering CC info on buggy eshop.

It seems to be stable enough to enter the code exactly and not stopping to correct a typo.

so what's the diff between main abilities and sub abilities? do sub abilities not count until it hits some threshold or do they just provide a smaller percentage of the full thing?
