That would be a day 1 buy for me. Big reason I cancelled my pre-order on my other system is that I'd much prefer it on the switch. That portability is everything to me.
Can't wait to get more levels. This is the one game that my wife loves to play as a team. She tried Overcooked with me and found that it was too stressful. I need more games like Snipperclips.
@GamePerson19 Totally agree with you. I love my Wii U but it did feel like a toy at times. I mean paint the game pad green & everyone would think I've got a leap frog. The Switch feels very different from that.
I really enjoyed a lot about the Switch reveal (MK8 on the go) but agree that Nintendo priced it at the top of the comfort zone.
The Joy-Cons are packed with tech and the $80 is reasonable but I'm going to wait to see if 2 is really needed & used (still feeling the Sega CD & 32X burn).
Where I think they dropped the ball is the lack of info on online, not showing the OS & nothing on virtual console. If they would of announced GC games coming to the e shop, people would of been so psyched. Right now it's a lot of unknowns and faith for that much $$$.
With that said, they've got my money & looking forward to Day 1. Nintendo don't fail me now!
So far I've been able to get them all but Lucina from Amazon. I just missed on her; she was in my cart and ready to checkout when she went out of stock.
I'm with you guys on the 2DS. The biggest drawback for me is that it led me to get a Wii U and getting caught up on tons of game for both systems. My poor wallet plus no relief in sight.
Oh man, I can't believe I forgot about Animal Crossing. So many hours spent on that game. Nothing like visiting my little island via the Gameboy Advance.
Loved this system, my top games were Pikmin, Paper Mario & Luigi's Mansion. I remember being so determined to beat Luigi's Mansion that I stayed up so late that I had to call in sick to work.
Yep, I really wish they would have given the codes out to all platinum members instead. Can't believe people are actually selling these things. Thanks again for letting me have my smash fix.
I guess it's time to crack open that wallet one more time and finally get Super Mario 3D World. Let's see what responsibilities I can fluff off to find more play time.
I'm with you, totally looking forward to Villager. Probably will get my butt kicked since I'm horrible at fighter games. Maybe the amiibo I've got preordered will help.
I've been playing it on the X1 since it came free with their gold program and was surprised at how much I got drawn in. The chances of me completing this game are slim to none since the last time I finished a game goes back to King Quest 6 or something like that. Damn you 24 hour days!!!
I haven't played a Smash game since the cube but I have to say the Nintendo hype machine is wearing me down. I should just give Nintendo direct access to my bank account.
I love these new systems. I've been itching to ditch the 2DS for a few months, but waiting until 2015 will be hard. Makes me wonder how ongoing 3DS/2DS sales will be in NA & EU until these come out.

This is channeling the old Epyx Winter and Summer games. I played those so much as a kid bouncing from the C64, Atari & NES.

Re: Infinite Minigolf Gets a 30% Discount on the Switch eShop
The Switch has so many good games. I need more time and $$$ for it all.
Re: Poll: One Week On - How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
I'm loving the system & Zelda. I've never enjoyed dying over & over this much before.
Re: Nintendo Switch Won't Have Video Streaming Services At Launch, But They're Being Considered
It really doesn't bother me that much. I never use my WiiU for steaming, that's what my XBONE is for. My Nintendo hardware is for games!
I think a 64GB memory card will be plenty considering I'll be going back to physical for this system so no USB drive support is no biggie.

Re: Amazon Confirms US amiibo Pre-Order Times for Wave 4, Splatoon and Silver Mario
Pac Man is in stock at Amazon for the normal $13 for anyone that wants to pick it up. 1 down, many to go.

I really love this board, true Nintendo fans are here. I was over at ign for a bit watching the code madness over there. Nuts!

Sorry, looks like I'm the culprit that got in after you.

Wow, did we double up on one & both get in. I used the first one too.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Update, Mercedes Karts and DLC Pre-Orders Now Live
@vonseux
I was just contemplating that too with the digital deluxe program. That is the gift that keeps on giving.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Update, Mercedes Karts and DLC Pre-Orders Now Live
That was some of the best money I've ever spent plus seeing my stats made me realize I need to play more. What a horrible win loss record.
Re: Talking Point: The Wii U May be Best as One of Two Consoles, Just Like Wii
I've got a WiiU & an XBox One. 95% of my gaming is on the WiiU while the Xbox is mainly an entertainment machine.
