What is the policy?
Presale listings must guarantee that the item will be posted within 40 days of purchase

@dartmonkey seeing as there was this initial report but it didn't show the question the person had asked ⚠️ and then 2 subsequent reports both stating these S2E physical games do come all on the cart . . . it seems only right to add a proper update to this article reflecting that . . .

the original report itself was only from a customer service rep anyway. but the fact the question asked was not visible, makes it unreliable . . .

the two subsequent reports are clearly talking about S2E physical games.

no reason not to update this article 🙂

you can always post a new article when you receive confirmation yourselves 💪

@NintendoLife PLEASE ADD A PROPER UPDATE TO THIS ATICLE 🚨

it isn't right to leave it like this after it being reported that no download is required, and a further report confirming these S2E physical games come all on the cartridge - https://x.com/nintyprime/status/1909274720924578183

@NintendoLife all on card confirmed by Nintendo Store UK https://www.resetera.com/threads/switch-2-editions-of-physical-games-are-switch-1-carts-with-an-upgrade-code-per-nintendo-uk-metroid-mario-party-kirby-botw-totk.1156137/page-9#post-138165708

perhaps could get to Rainbow Road via the rocket at the Space Port !?

@dartmonkey i can't see it in the post ? *ah i see it now . . . it's not very prevalent is it

@NintendoLife there was a significant update to this [12 hours ago 🤦] - https://www.reddit.com/r/switch2/s/Q2zpzyCJyp "Enhanced Editions Confirmed Not to Require a Download by Nintendo Support"

@Cakefish "preorder embargo" ??? wow, talk about making things up 😅 no such thing exists

@Mana_Knight i made an order with Very, as can spread cost over 12 months (interest free)

@Myggen Norway standard VAT rate is 25% so you need to divide by 1.25

@Mana_Knight i hope it becomes available again for you ! 🤞😁👍

@Mana_Knight Argos preorders were available yesterday

@Mana_Knight 😁👍

@Mana_Knight fyi when sharing links, you can delete a lot of the guff! (ebay: everything after the item number!)

@stuie1234 buy directly from SanDisk https://shop.sandisk.com/en-gb/products/memory-cards/microsd-cards/sandisk-microsd-express-memory-card?sku=SDSQXFN-128G-GN4NN 😁👍

the guy is either trolling or completely deluded if he really thinks there is even the tiniest possibility Nintendo would allow it on a Nintendo platform

haven't Xbox and PlayStation been offering accessibility controllers for years now ?

can Mario stand up ? 🙂

if he doesn't think it can last forever, that's a bit of a concerning view for the CEO to have. there's no reason at all to think it can't always exist

completely fails to mention the 'Piko Interactive Collection 4' (2024) cartridge release for Evercade consoles 🤦 #journalism

@Overzeal it isn't so much the conversions of 500 CAD that matter, more the differences in MSRP of current console

For reference, the Switch OLED model currently retails for $449.99 CAD / $348.99 USD / £309.99 GBP respectively.

can see the difference between Switch OLED at 450 CAD and this possible Switch2 price 500 CAD, is +⅑

so do the same to the US / EU Switch OLED MSRP and you get ~390 USD / EUR

(Nintendo's EUR & USD numbers match, FYI 🕵️‍♂️)

and do the same for UK Switch OLED RRP and you get ~345 GBP

@Medic_alert i'm sure they do realise that 💪

but i also think; something people often don't consider is that there is actually a danger of underpricing a product, which could lead to a perceived lower inherent value. so price point is a balancing act

@Medic_alert good points. i remember 3DS launching at a higher price, then Nintendo reduced it and "compensated" early adopters with ¿20? complimentary 'Virtual Console' games 🙂

@Medic_alert this article is about the Canadian price possibly being 500 CAD

and the article states

499 Canadian dollars converts to around 350 USD / 280 GBP at the time of writing

and

the Switch OLED model currently retails for $449.99 CAD / $348.99 USD / £309.99 GBP respectively.

Nintendo Switch2 hybrid console will not be comparable to PS5 home console & Xbox Series X home console

there is absolutely no reason to think Switch2 could be priced £500 🙂

it'll likely be around £350

#29 tgp-87

I'm unsure why £280 is being touted when the article has a much more accurate conversion to use:

"For reference, the Switch OLED model currently retails for $449.99 CAD / $348.99 USD / £309.99 GBP respectively."

If $450 CAD = £310, then $500 CAD would be £344. If that holding price proves accurate, I would expect the UK launch price to be £349.99, which is not unrealistic.

^ this 💪

@Medic_alert

#20 Medic_alert "I don't think families are up for another £500 system at this point - especially not a Nintendo one."

@Tober i see now that the 5% GST is not included in displayed prices 😉 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goods_and_services_tax_(Canada)

@Tober oh. my bad then. i got it from here https://wise.com/gb/vat/canada

@Medic_alert CAD ≠ GBP

so far away we'll be on British Summer Time ! 👴🪦🙏

@Jack_Goetz also Hyrule Warriors released for Wii U, 3DS, Switch 🙂

@AlienigenX game sales

@AlienigenX buying a used copy of a game counts for nothing fyi

@Haruki_NLI Switch doesn't "register" physical carts to your account 🤔 it just keeps a record of played games

@Jack_Goetz Captain Toad Treasure Tracker has been released for Wii U, 3DS & Switch (though I think the 3DS & Switch versions released at the same time)

@1UP_MARIO actually it's less now as they lowered the price from £49.99 to £45.99. so anyone who ordered it at £39.99 using the 20% off code can now contact Currys to ask for the difference back, or to cancel your order, then reorder at the new price £36.79 using the code "DONKEY20" - there's 2 listings: one including the themed cleaning cloth, one without.

@NintendoLife over £5 cheaper elsewhere: game + themed cleaning cloth £36.79 using code DONKEY20 at currys.co.uk free delivery

game + themed cleaning cloth £36.79 using code DONKEY20 at currys.co.uk free delivery

@Uncle_Franklin RDR was developed for PS3 and Xbox 360. RDR2 was developed for PS4 and Xbox One 🙂

@FreakAxident i just don't think you've thought it through. the side piece which sticks out of the joy-con will insert into a slot on the side of the console (have you seen the previous leaked image of the side of the console ?). given the depth of the slot, this will provide very substantial stability, it will be very rigid. the magnets will keep it attached, and the shape of the insert & slot will keep it rigid. that's it

@FreakAxident if you look at the top and bottom of the edge you can see a round shape which could be the magnets, the round shape at the top has a smaller circle inside which could push the top of the joy-con away from the console enough to allow the joy-con to be detached 🧐 i can't imagine nintendo deciding to go with magnetic connection only for it to require additional locking as well. i've been hoping the release button may also be usable as an additional trigger button when using the individual joy-con held horizontally 🙂

i don't understand everyone banging on about OLED screens. i personally did not like the oversaturated vibrant look of the Switch OLED Model (with the 'vibrant mode' [or however it's named] enabled [as it is by default]). there is absolutely nothing wrong with the regular Switch model screen, my launch model Switch is the one i prefer to use over the Lite and the OLED model.

also, everyone seems to have completely forgotten that Sharp announced years ago that they would be supplying their IGZO displays for an upcoming Nintendo console 🧐 granted, this announcement happened years ago, at a time when Nintendo were likely planning Switch Pro (which got cancelled), but it's likely they would be used now in the new console. IGZO displays have far superior power efficiency, along with other beneficial features.

i am still in shock at Xbox announcing no more console exclusives 😮 IMO that is platform suicide 😵 R.I.P. Xbox consoles 🪦

a dream partnership ! 😍

@Earl_Grey the US website won't ship to other regions. doesn't Sweden have My Nintendo Store ? i can see Netherlands does https://store.nintendo.nl/nl

what happens when you sign-in on https://my.nintendo.com ?

@Ninetaled i saw a separate video all about that video he did, so i know about it. and while i was very disappointed to hear about it, and at the time i actually decided i wouldn't watch any of his videos anymore, i am so glad i didn't stick to that, and the fact it was deleted says a lot.

but anything else he has done has no effect on how incredibly insightful and eye-opening this "Nintendo v. Palworld" video is

@rjejr that launched 3 months ago. LEGO Fortnite is renaming to LEGO Fortnite Odyssey

@LadyCharlie if you actually care about truth you should watch this https://youtu.be/8apzrwv75i0
