Helmsly Posted April 2 Posted April 2 I also got the email to say I can buy a Switch 2. Unsure if I will though.

I’d personally wait until larger ones come out myself… It really sucks that 2TB is gonna be the max that Switch 2 will ever support, since there’s no way it’s ever gonna fit my entire Switch 1 and 2 collection on one console… especially since Switch 2 games will be much larger than Switch 1 on average… Edited April 2 by Dcubed 1

Seems like they're being rolled out in waves rather than all at once. Huh. I wonder how long I need this list to be to get included? Kind of want to know how low down I must be

Bah, it is what it is, I was mentally preparing for needing to wait in queues and keep an eye on things anyway, so no change in plan for me plus, there's no denying that they're going about things the right way, with the people who play more and who have continuously used NSO being prioritised. At least here they're being pretty transparent about the criteria here, too, which I've got to respect – things in the past like the physical release Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition seemed like a real coin toss with no real rhyme or reason to it I turned on my Switch for...two games last year, I think? I'd be prioritising other players over me too if I were them!

Also, yes I was silly and didn't buy the Mario Kart World bundle...I want that physical copy

Julius Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Just now, Ike said: 6 minutes and still available? Has no one noticed? Seems like it, but I'm not complaining IGN Deals UK and other similar accounts I've turned notifications on for this haven't said a thing. Think everyone's asleep at the wheel assuming pre-orders go up everywhere on the 8th or after just because that's what's going on with the My Nintendo Store. ...which they should probably know isn't the case based on what happened with the PS5, but
Ike Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Guess every one was expecting it go up next week, Smyths caught every one off guard.
Dcubed Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Got one with Mario Kart from Smyths for my sister. I’ll be picking up my one (alongside 4 GCN controllers and a Switch 2 Pro Controller) from the Nintendo Store when their pre-order window opens up.
killthenet Posted April 2 Posted April 2 FFS, Smyths don't accept PayPal so I can't pre-order yet (need to do pay in 3 really) I've registered my interest on a couple of sites though so hopefully one of them pays off.
BowserBasher Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Got an invite link. No idea if I'm going to be able to afford to get it at such short notice to save for it. I know the Nintendo store don't take money until release day so there is that. The thing too is that I'd want to go with the console and physical MK game, but I'm not sure I can justify paying that much more over the digital bundle. And Damn, £75 for MK World!! I may have to go with digital bundle this time around. I'm still one that is for physical copies of games. But I need MK for our Thursday night gaming.
Happenstance Posted April 2 Posted April 2 I ended up getting a Smyths preorder in just in case I change my mind. I can always cancel.
Eddage Posted April 2 Posted April 2 I’m lucky that my job has had overtime for about a year now and it’ll last for the foreseeable future. Means I can immediately have enough money left over from one month’s pay! Already preorderd with Smyths but want to get one with Argos as I can get a discount through work.

Never seen them do this before, seems like a lot of people have learned from the mess that was the PS5 pre-order experience! Put my name in – will see what comes of it. Nintendo Store would still be my first choice so if I'm able to get that next week then great, if not then I should be covered with backups anyways 1
