Re: Nintendo of America Says to Check Retailers as More Switch Stock is On the Way

freaksloan

I am in the States and was just able to grab a Switch today on Amazon.

I just went to Smyths Ireland web site, and over half the stores say the Grey Joycon Switch is in stock for pick-up or delivery.

Also checked the Neon's and they are even more available for pickup and delivery.

Every store has the Pro-Controller and they actually have them on sale for 5 Euro's off.

Re: Deals: Nintendo Switch Upcoming Goodies For March And April

I am out! I wasn't going to buy one, then my son bought BotW for Switch with his B-Day money so I decided to buy one.

Wal-Mart and Kohls both cancelled my order because they couldn't fulfill my orders.

So now going to return BotW to Walmart and son is going to by a new headset for his X-Box instead.

Not sure if and when I will jump on the Switch Train.

Re: UK Survey Shows Enthusiasm for Nintendo Switch and Its Concept, But Pricing is a Factor

I bet people complaining about the price don't think twice about buying a $750 cell phone.

Going to the bar with my buddies cost at least $50. Taking the family out to dinner at least another $50. Going to see a major sports team play is a minimum of a couple of hundred dollars. Last vacation was $3000.

So sorry not going to complain about spending $300 on something that will give my family hours upon hours and years of enjoyment.

Re: Nintendo Is Doubling Production of Switch Units

Here in the States, I had my Wal-Mart order cancelled because they could not fulfill it and then I had my Kohls order cancelled for the same reason.

There are no Switches available in the States for MSRP. Any retailer I have talked to have no clue when they will be getting any more.

Re: Parent Trap: ​A Family Gamer's Perspective On The Nintendo Switch

freaksloan

We are a gaming family. 14 yr old son, 12 yr old daughter and myself a 45 yr old dad. We have 2 Xbox Ones, Wii U, PS3, PS Vita, PSP, 2 Wii's, Vita TV, 3 3ds XL's, 3 DSi XL's, 2 Full Blown gaming PCs and too many Ipads, Androids tablets and smart phone to count.

I have no desire for the Switch, just don't see the need for it at this time. Might pick one up Holiday season 2018.

My kids know it exists, but have shown no interest in it. None of their friends are talking about it either.
