Don't need a holster if you never stop shooting.

I had the $20 Hori preordered, then I saw that the guys who made the glass cover for my iphone are releasing a glass cover for the switch. I can't overstate how pleased I was with that one (no bubbles, insanely easy application), so I cancelled the Hori and went for the glass one.

It's this one:

I'm a poor who blew all her money on the Switch plus Zelda and is banking on the fact she's had her phone without a screen protector for three years without it shattering or scratching and I drop it way more than my 3DS or Wii U tablet.

Also my first game is physical, so I can hold off on the SD card for now.

What I'm saying is, my preorder list is

+Switch
+Zelda

But yo Snipperclips being confirmed for 3/3 D1 worldwide is a nice feather in the cap for the Switch launch.

If you can't afford 1-2-Switch, or don't want to at that price point, I think Snipperclips is going to be an excellent showcase game.

I think it'll be a better game, and have more lasting appeal frankly. Though I'm really waiting on the inevitable Warioware game to be the party game for the unit. A new Mario Party or Wario Ware would have been a real feather for them as a system seller that showed off all the various capabilities in fun ways that'll last in people's minds.

I hate that commercial in the most irrational way. Maybe it's the dude's exposed thighs. Nobody wants to see that. Or maybe it's the fact that it's a loving picture of a dude taking a poo poo.

Nintendo Switch looks cool. I need to distract myself from the fact that Target won't get my neon to me until the 6th.

Amazon has Zelda arriving Friday.

I'm in the same boat. I keep having daydreams that I'll check the Target order and the delivery date will have changed. Not yet though...

Same except I did buy a 128GB card because I don't intend to buy many physical games at all.

Walmart says I'll have my switch on the 7th. It sucks that I won't have it on launch but I have the rest of my life to own it, so I'm not that torn up.

My Breath of the Wild preorder is from Amazon, so I'll get it on the 12th of Never.

Saw that Amazon were still taking pro controller pre orders (in the U.K at least) so snagged one and a carry case. Haven't spent this much on accessories to play one game since steel battalion.

Is there a problem with Amazon besides the previous mass cancellations of the Master editions?

I also have this ordered but its doesn't appear they're going to hit the release date so I also preordered a HORI for the days until glass arrives. Not taking any chances on this thing.
