I know I am getting my switch cheaper but waiting the week while everyone plays theres is going to be the hardest ever .

I'm getting mine at the midnight launch however getting Zelda from Amazon which won't be here til about the 8th...

Nearly worse having he Switch at home taunting me and not having anything to play on it than not having it at all!

Where is selling this at midnight? Anyone know if pre-order is a definite must have?

Read a few pages back.

Still on tenderhooks about my online Smyths preorder with no cash down... feels like I'm rubbing bacon on my arse and shaking it in front of the lion enclosure in making plans for launch day that involve actually having a Switch...

Edit : @Hairball : Yeah, it helps a lot! Cheers!

Are You Making Nintendo Switch Games? Japanese Developers Answer That And More

Odd how there's always 1 "no vote" for every question. Who is that one developer who took the time to take the survey but not answer any of the questions. JERK!

I was worried about that too last week and went into the shop to ask, the fella behind the counter said that theres no guarantee you will get the switch on launch if you did the preorder online and that they stopped taking money orders instore. But that online was available stil w/o guarantee. I went to smyths online help chat and they assured me that i would get it at the midnight launch with an online order and which store said that so that they could stop the misinformation. So im hoping the online chat with the rep is right.

I just pinged them there so I'd have it in black and white, got the same message : all online pre-orders are being guaranteed for launch day and will be available for midnight pickup.

Roll on March 4th!
(I'll pick it up lunch time and use the friday for day 1 patches, charging and celebratory drinking, the Saturday is for wandering Hangoverule).

What can you say about that?

I'd say the person who originally posted that video in this thread ought to be ashamed of themselves! Stoning's too good for 'em! But it'll have to do. And you get to throw the first rock, on account of you exposing them for the charlatan that they are! Throw it good n' hard, boy!

On the one hand you see that a lot on trailers on the telly, but the trailers on the telly don't say they're for the Nintendo Switch and then show PS4 footage. Presumably there's already a PS4 video up on youtube... so what's the point in them uploading this? Exposure? as in negative publicity is still publicity?

The game's 2 weeks away from release. Couldn't they have made a Switch specific trailer? I didn't catch it myself about the PS4 footage but it's kicked off in a bad way elsewhere as a result. The game isn't getting a physical release either. Square-Enix aren't exactly breaking their back nor are they giving the Switch unequivocal support.

I hold out hope for Final Fantasy VII to go with the Cloud Amiibo making an appearance sometime down the line. But I am crazy.

Completely unrelated to current conversation topics, has anyone here talked about organising meet ups? Seeing as how the switch is bringing LAN back, I'd quite fancy that. Especially when Splatoon & MK Deluxe hit the stands

I was told never to meet strange men off the internet....

Jk, I'm new enough to this forum but I'd be up for that!

In other news... rumour that this is the Switch UI. Not sure if I'm too keen on it....

Very good! I'd love to get something together. I've gamer mates bit they've never seen the light that is the big N

Gamestop santry and clarehall both said pre orders are still guranteed for launch. And there's places online also guaranteeing for the 3rd. And argos of course.

The press are receiving their switch units!
