    Just got email with barcodes confirmed, I can collect midnight, from limerick smyths. Happy night:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Still no mail (carrickmines). Order status "being fulfilled" which makes it sound like my Switch is being played with behind my back by some filthy Smyth's warehouse hand. Im not heading over for midnight but they don't know that, and they're cutting it very fine for what I was told was a guaranteed Day 1 order...

    Just walked past GameStop on Henry St and 2 people are queuing! Hello fellow Switchies!! (I'm now calling all you that)

    So it appears Smyths won't allow online Switch pre-orders to upgrade to a bundle tomorrow? I won't buy Breath of the Wild from them if that's the case.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,411 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    The guy I was talking to was telling me about the stock they had. I'm sure he said they had 20 spare Switches. He expected more. 4 Special Edition Zeldas with 2 of them ordered. About 30 Pro Controllers with none preordered. Only about 6 or 7 copies of Bomberman.

    I know the Pro controller is about €7 cheaper in Argos.

    We won't know till 0:01 but its easy to be pessimistic. Plan B: Buy them, return them, buy them back at discount.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 688 ✭✭✭Irishbrick


    Anyone get the Barcode confirmation from jervis smyths yet?

    I saw them when I was in there. They're behind the main counter all stacked up and ready to go!

    Just realised it's the 'Treasure Trove' edition. Price justified so.

    Just got my Ready for Collection Email from Smyths Carrickmines. Not going to the midnight launch, but it is a relief to have it ready to collect tomorrow morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 293 ✭✭JohnnyJohnJohns


    No preorder- is it worth popping out to Carrickmines around 12 to see if there's any stock?

    That price returns to normal in about an hour, just in time for the treasure trove release. Buy it now on WiiU/3ds, it will upgrade to treasure trove at midnight (for the system you bought it for)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,502 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Damn I knew I dreamed up $19.99 for I am Setsuna, €39.99 is a lady dog of a price.

    I am off now to stalk a spider boy(really I am going to sleep for the next 8 hours then back to hospital)

    MERRY SWITCHMAS
    YA FILTHY ANIMALS!!!

    And to all a great night
    if you are out and about getting your switch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,431 ✭✭✭MilesMorales1


    40 quid for I Am Setsuna? They're having a laugh, no chance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,376 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    That's the price Setsuna is on PS4. Still think I'll get it.

    I'd say so, I was told to pop down to Smyth's and wait around til all the pre orders had been fulfilled and there should be stock enough for one....

    I'm really taking a chance but I've no other option at the moment... :(
