@Thomas@laserdisc.party am now thinking about the best possible ads to run alongside Seventh Seal...maybe for chess.com, or Spirit Halloween for all of your death costume needs?

Anyone in A2 have a copy of Animal Crossing for the switch 1 that they would be willing to part with? My daughter wants to play it and I don't want to pay full retail prices for it if I can avoid it! We got a copy at Game Pawn that turned out to be broken and had to return it.
