When I say win the holidays, I mean they will be sold out and steal all the Christmas hype in regards to PlayStation and Xbox. You'll see the Switch in all the news stories about the "must have" toy to get.

Rad Valtar posted:I grabbed this case as Wal-Mart and it's really good: https://www.amazon.com/Industries-N...nintendo+switch Man I really wish I could find one of these either online or in a local store. Gamestops, Targets, Walmart, and Toysrus were all bone dry when it came to in-stock cases (of any kind) over the weekend.

I said it was Walmarts fault for selling his preorder and that stock was still in circulation on launch day and that Japan had stock available now. I honestly don't know what is hard to connect here.

Google Translate on smartphones can do video translation live by the way! Very useful for browsing the Switch store JP

Don Lapre posted:They arn't going to win the holidays by shipping 5 a week to each store. It's still March. They'll have plenty of time to ramp up production. Between Zelda, Mario Kart, Mario Odyssey, and Splatoon 2, I assume they'll ship (and sell) lots of consoles this Christmas. Minecraft and Skyrim are a bit long in the tooth but having them won't hurt, either.

Switches are depleted here, too, though I'm not surprised because this city has 2 universities and a community college? Lot of hip young up-and-comers having rooftop parties in the freezing snow.

What exactly is nintendo using their production capacity for. You cant buy a wii u, 3ds, 2ds, nintendo mini, or switch. I bought the last 3ds at target near me and both of the last 2ds's. maybe all getting snatched up before 11.3 hits store shelf units.

Also, a lot of people want the pancakes but the pancakes have to be shipped by boat overseas to all the countries in the world. That, and the pancakes are portable.

I think what I have learned is I need to make friends with someone who works at a retail store. It's the only way to get a super popular item if you didn't pre order and don't want to wait. Or drive around like an Uber driver.

Managed to score one of these off Craigslist with almost no markup, then get a copy of Zelda at Best Buy and a pro controller from Amazon Prime Now. Zelda is very good. The system was unplayable in TV mode without the pro controller, though. The left joycon would frequently become unresponsive, and periodically would de-sync entirely. Standing close to the console helped, but even that didn't entirely get rid of the problem. The pro controller works flawlessly in TV mode, and there's no issue with the joycon when it's connected to the tablet. Seems like a lot of people have had similar issues?

I've been at work all day and I just wanna go home and play more Zelda. I would bring it with me but that would set a poor example for the people I am technically supervising. At least with a laptop I can pretend to be working. I am listening to the soundtrack though, man this poo poo is great. I love piano.

"I'm gonna take a 'wait and see' approach with this new console from Nintendo." *Waits a week* "WHY CAN'T I FIND A SWITCH ANYWHERE, JESUS CHRIST NINTENDO GET YOUR MANUFACTURING poo poo TOGETHER!" I'd feel bad for these people if this didn't happen all the time with like every new popular video game thing. Especially NIntendo products.
