It's on! Who will win the Switch and the other cool prizes? Follow the drawing event live on Twitch.

On January 1st we announced a big giveaway with a bunch of cool stuff for everyone to win. A week later, almost 400 users had registered to enter. So what's it going to be? who will win?



Prize #1: a brand new Nintendo Switch console delivered to your doorstep!

If you win the 4th prize, you get to pick first. If you win the 5th prize, you get to pick second. And so on. (Reminder: this list will be reduced from 29 to 11 games once the winners from the first and second competitions pick their choice).

Never even heard of or seen any of the winners on the list active on the forum other than Issac lol.

And this is a fact that will be present on all competitions and prize giveaways.

It's just a fact of life, that people will come to get free stuff. We can either accept it, or shake our fists at the computer screen and hope that will solve it.

Making these raffles also attracts newcomers which might at one point be an active member of the GBAtemp forum, or even (for all you and I know), contribute to the gaming scene.

In any case, congratulations to the winners!

No offense, but I also never even heard of you before you posted this. :P Gbatemp is a big site, and we don't read or post in the same threads, obviously. That said, I won a steam game, but not sure to use it. I'll probably give it to someone else, but waiting for confirmation first.

I wasn't even complaining though, just stating it.

I also haven't been posting very much the past year. Just a post here and there. Wasn't complaining though just thought it was funny.

The man has 534 posts. I'd say that more than qualifies him as an active member.

Just some more high-quality content!

Comedy gold.

yes, and I know you aren't complaining but I'm replying anyway.

we hold raffles not only to reward our most loyal members, but also to draw new members in. The community needs new members to compensate for the people leaving, thats how it's always been :)

who knows, maybe the guy who won the switch will become a super active & important member of the community and rock everyone's buttocks, right?

And I have 631. Those numbers don't mean much, as far as I'm concerned. He hasn't posted much in the last year, as he was saying, and neither have I. That means not very many people will recognize him or me as an active member.
