Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

Recommended Posts

I moved in to a new house in January, been decorating and stuff for a month. Just finished a few days ago so I'm moving all my stuff in.

 

Mounted a 65" TV on the living room wall so thats the first place i'll be hooking this thing up to when it arrives :D

 

I was envisioning you having two adjacent houses and started each morning by thinking "hmm, which house shall I live in today?"

Well I did it.

 

I went to Argos and picked it up.

 

My carry case... (so so tempted to buy the Switch and return my ShopTo one later!)

And some giant Cadbury buttons for later when I want a gaming snack. :heh:

 

Come the fuck on half 1.

It's at my local depot, but Royal Mail are always slow at getting parcels out as I live in the ass end of nowhere. A long wait is ahead I think, my thoughts are with you all who are awaiting parcels. :grin:

It was at my local depot at 05:50, I'm hoping to have a bit more luck than you as I live in Birmingham!

Been stalking this thread for a few days now, I'm so glad I kept the ShopTo pre-order and cancelled Amazon and NUK. I would have been going out of my mind if I was in some of your positions of not knowing if it'll arrive today.

 

I'm thankful DPD let you collect it from a Pickup location. As both myself & my partner will be at work all day, I've got my Switch and Zelda being delivered to my local Sainsbury's before 12. Ordered myself the official case and screen protector to collect on my way home from work as well.

 

Getting very excited now!

Both Argoses (Argi?) near me have grey Switches in stock, but are all out of Neon.

I just checked my local Argoses for neon ones, nope. Nintendo better not fuck me over.

Amazon are out for delivery and I have a functioning tracking number. Everything has worked out for me with Amazon so far, pretty happy.

Because on 'gaf, some peoples have:

 

a) got detailed tracking info

b) already got theirs

 

and me? I'm at c)

 

 

 

I'm not going without a Switch all weekend after getting this hyped :mad: used Paypal credit to buy one from Argos.

 

I called Nintendo, they said the tracking numbers on some orders are 'ghost numbers' so don't work. And reassured me they will all arrive today!!!

I got nervous/impatient and ordered the console via Amazon Prime Now and it's already arrived.

Prime Now is godly.

 

For anyone who's ordered with Nuk but had an incorrect tracking number, your order is likely coming via Hermes according to GAF.

 

Hope it doesn't mysteriously go missing..:woops:

Do you have the number for Nintendo?

That might explain why my RM tracking hasn't updated, this is some really bad communication from NUK.

 

Do I wait the rest of the day for Zelda to show up, or buy it on the eShop in the meantime..?

Oh my days this waiting is total torture.

I have another 3 hours left before my slot yet I am so tempted just to go back to Argos and do the Switch later. See what I did there.

Yeah, this is different to my case though. Some tracking numbers have been incorrectly assigned when they're actually coming by Hermes, so the code doesn't work at all, whereas mine just indicates no progress.

 

I'm getting one by the end of the day anyway, so as long as Simply Games hasn't let me down, I'll be on Zelda tonight regardless!

 

Even if my Neon console arrives from NUK today, their handling of the process has been very poor considering the time they had to prepare, so I don't think I'll use them again.
