That would be a disaster on the Switch. And being the first batch who knows what gremlins they will have. Plus no idea how I'd return it to Amazon having had it shipped via Parcel Motel. I'm in a mood as back decided to fall off my Samsung TV other day. Now everything is suspect.

At £89.99 it was just too expensive for what they were offering, that sword statue and CD isn't worth the extra £41 over the standard edition. It's a big shame we're not getting the same collector's edition as they are in the US - the Zelda carry case was the one thing I really would want.

Interesting times to be sure! Nintendo hardware launches are.... significant. I mean, without them it would be a cyclical release of incrementally improved FIFA/GTA/CoD delivery boxes every few years. At least with them, those devices still get released but they don't represent the sum total of what video gaming should or could be.

I made mistake of standard delivery too, id got and paid next day if I hadnt rushed it through. Surely it be Saturday not Friday if going via Parcel Motel in Belfast and then onto ROI? Lets hope else Ill end up a Midnight launch at GameStop Patrick St I was lucky I got my Switch for 290e with an amazon employee code Beats Gamestops 330e! Same Discount for Zelda Special Edition and Pro Controllers too. Saved me a good chunk of cash!

I have to wait maybe 5 more days to get it but its a 100 euro less so means more games . Have only been to two midnight releases in my life. Call of duty Black ops and gears of war 3.
