I have tracking numbers now. I thought they would use DPD or something, not Royal Mail.

@Dcubed you leftnyour order id in there, dunno if you should remove it.

Still not been charged by Nintendo yet.

My payment failed for some reason, argh!  I've got no notifcations on any of my accounts.  I even used PayPal so it could go through all the accounts it needed to.  They've said they're going to try again in 4 days.

I would put the money into your PayPal wallet in advance if I were you.  I had quite a bit of trouble adding the funds initially (my bank rejected the PayPal wallet top-up transaction twice before I had to do the confirmation thingy that it was a genuine transaction; and only then did it let me add the funds).

If you fill up your PayPal wallet in advance, the payment should go through smoothly like mine did.

My tracking number is now working from Nintendo! Royal Mail have it as “we are expecting your item” and that it’s been dispatched from the sender. 
I’m sure Nintendo have all these Switch 2’s as DO NOT DELIVER BEFORE 5TH all over them.

I'm just imagining Miyamoto clones walking in and taking command of every postage facility across the world this weekend and for the next few days to make sure they don't get sent off any earlier than they should be :D

I preordered as soon as I could. Will be collecting it from Currys on Thursday.

I have tons of Switch games in the backlog. Still need to finish off Zelda TOTK. And just bought Fantasy Life.

I was eyeing up Cyberpunk but I do have the full game on PS5 still in its wrapper!

Oh wow! Curry's Oxford Street are also doing a Midnight Launch for Switch 2!!

Oh that's sick! I am loving this sudden revival of the Midnight Launch! :D

I would love to go, and totally would, but I literally can't make it this time around unfortunately.  Man, I used to LOVE midnight launches though, they were so much fun!

My Smyths preorder still 'In Progress'.

Yeah so is mine so I wouldn’t worry, I can just see the payment has been processed in my bank itself.

Edit: ok now it’s moved to ready for dispatch

These early dispatch notifications are really quite unfair given that we have DAYYYSS to go still! 

They're dangling the Ninty carrot and I don't like it!! 😭😛

I'm getting worried about my Argos order. No update to it at all since early April is making me nervous. No reason to assume anything would happen yet but I just want something to give me peace of mind everything is moving as expected.

They're obviously secretly a member here

Got an email from Argos too but it'll apparently be coming via Royal Mail instead of DPD like I expected which is a bit disappointing - means I'm less confident about getting it on launch day now

Still, it's happening! Just a couple more days to go!

Yep, I got an e-mail from Argos too, here's the exact wording...

Hello,

Great news! Nintendo switch2 is almost here so we’re preparing your pre order for delivery. You’ll receive tracking details from Wednesday and we’ll deliver to you on Thursday 5th June, you’ll be able to track your order from early hours on the delivery day (Thursday 5th June). 

Yours sincerely 

Argos 

@Glen-i not long now! :peace:

I think they’ve used Royal Mail on purpose here. I can only assume they have somehow done it so that parcels will be with Royal Mail before Thursday so that all get delivered on Thursday. Others may either just deliver early (as soon they get them) or late if they don’t get them in time.
