Super Nintardbros!

[cools]

Heh, I have a backlog of hundreds, maybe thousands of titles. More than I can remember.

Excited as hell

[skykappah]

Just got an email through.... It's in transit!!! Woooo haven't been this excited since the Megadrive and Snes.

Where from? Retailers aren't supposed to break the release date. Shopto often do with games but not consoles.

It makes sense to send it out today for it to arrive on Friday though. I bought mine from them good fellas at Gameseek. Who honoured their pricing mistake of £199.
But no, Gameseek aren't the only ones dispatching early. Amazon have and even Nintendo themselves sent my copy of Zelda BOTW spesh edition just this morning.

Amazon are supposed to be despatching today but no update yet ....

I'm expecting shipping notice tomorrow for mine - Amazon and Nintendo.

[Grandiloquence]

I've arranged to sell mine to a friend - the launch line up is weak and come April everything stops for Persona 5 anyway.

[geotrig]

Start offering refunds/make the games cheap/do physical releases please Nintendo.

Nice , the escapists 2 on the go has me excited : embarrassed.

[skykappah]

Come April, it's Mario Kart 8 for me! I skipped the Wii U. So really looking forward to it.

[Grandiloquence]

Some awesome games in that list, i just hope the aaa's will deliver too so this doesn't turn into another Vita.

Vita still alive and kicking and shows you don't need AAA titles to stick around. There are still some fine games for the system and more in the pipeline.

[Grandiloquence]

Come on, Vita was brought to market as a portable PS3-like console playing proper games, not the current sorry state as an indie machine with laughable support. Sometimes i doubt if Sony themselves even know they still sell the console. Nintendo can't afford to let the Switch turn into a Vita.

So how do you explain the roaring success that was the Wii-U? And I don't get the parallel between Switch and Vita. One is purely a hand-held console, the other is a hybrid...

Anyway i hope Nintendo will do better, the launch lineup doesn't interest me so i'm 90% sure i'm not getting this week,

Put an extra digit "1" in front of your 90% as pre-orders are on waves 5-6 (retail talk) where ever they are. Game have been making the internet news because they have cancelled some pre-orders and although hyperbole... Their place-holder dates for the next batch after initial fulfilment is "December"... Yes motha-fargin Christmas...
Amazon don't have such a warning, Tesco out of the coloured set... and roll on the next few days after launch... nobody is going to be able to get one next week.
