Nintendo

Pre-orders are available again on Argos for anyone still looking.

I can't decide whether I'm bothered about getting it on release or not yet. Legends ZA and the Kirby expansion are the only things appealing to me right now.Anyone know how long it usually takes (Nintendo) consoles to drop in price? Is it more than a year?

 

[undisco_me]

Same!

Did you add anything else into your basket? I got an SD card as I figure the MKW pack-in will be a download (hopefully pre-installed if so).

8 weeks - so long away yet no time at all.

A little bitter that the GameCube controller is only available to those in the official Nintendo presale, hopefully they’re not sold out by the time they open it up to everyone.

Also bitter I wasn’t selected but my recent play time has been minimal this year.

Does anyone know if Argos takes your money now or waits till it dispatches?

They take payment straight away. I think Amazon and Smyths wait until dispatch but you may need to double check that!

I need to get over my need for physical games.

As soon as you have to get up from the couch to switch to a different game you'll learn easily.

I ordered with Argos as was worried wouldn't get my Nintendo email and then I got my Nintendo email and I can't cancel my Argos order.

I was tempted to get Mario Party but thought I could download that in the shop.

I'll get a new SD card online.

Just wondering, is there any benefit of ordering with Nintendo which Argos doesn't offer?

Nintendo don't take the money out straight away or at least not from PayPal straight away.

I need to have WORDS with Nintendo. Why am I not in the elusive pre-order club!!1

It's fine. I don't care. I never did.

And yet....

Yoshi being the only one that still changes color, iconic! Also I expect each character gets 8 costumes.

Switch 2 pre-orders have also been delayed in Canada. What a shitshow.

This is a bit shit of them to do as I would love one of those GameCube controllers. It’s my favourite console ever and holds so many memories.

I’m also just salty as I’ve put countless hours in to my Switch but let my online subscription lapse for a while, so wasn’t eligible for preorder invites.

Not really. With delivery costs though Argos are more expensive than Nintendo. Their boxes are really nice too!

You might be right but I don’t mind getting up to change games after an hour or so.

Have we all seen Doug Bowser's statement on pricing?

 

[Harmonia]

I better see Mario Kart World on Switch 1 if he wants me to keep playing Switch 1.
