Today I bought my first Amiibo. It's Mr. Resetti, the rear end in a top hat mole from Animal Crossing; a game I have not played in years.
But it was 4 bucks and he's delightfully stern.

Kiss the Joycon to Kiss Zelda

Just got an email saying that my order of Bomberman was being prepared.

I don't remember Pre-ordering Bomberman but apparently I did??

The shop are charging the same amount as for BOTW though (€64.99), I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be cheaper. Oh well, I just won't buy it. If I want it I might just grab it on the eShop.

I'm not gonna lie I thought about cancelling my pre-order at least 20 times but I'm so loving hype to play some Zelda tomorrow, I don't care it's gonna be worth it.

Just let it shine through
So if you buy Shovel Knight Treasure Trove, which is the base game plus the additional canpaign(s), do you get Torment for free or do I have that wrong?

I had read the additional campaigns were free dlc, but I haven't really kept up with it so I'm kind of confused.

Thinking I'll get I am Setsuna and SKTT off the eShop tomorrow night.

So bummed I couldn't get tomorrow off work. Gonna be like 10pm til I get to unbox everything.

For anyone who had purchased Shovel Knight prior to the Spectre of Torment DLC, the additional campaigns are free. Going forward the campaigns are available separately, and Treasure Trove is the way to get them all at once.

Let me pickup my poo poo Best Buy. Apparently they're prepping orders before story openings. Anyone know if they'll have accessories available upon pickup that aren't available on the site? Aside from people that did pickups? Looking to grab some neon Joy Cons and hopefully a pro controller.



Also FYI Walmart has BoTW Special Editions available right now if you don't mind waiting until early next week. https://www.walmart.com/ip/The-Legend-of-Zelda-Breath-of-the-Wild-Special-Edition-Nintendo-Switch/55432569

Is this based on your Nintendo account or your Nintendo Network account? I'm still not even clear on what the difference is or why Nintendo makes me log in to two accounts.

The article that tweet links states that you have to swap accounts, but you can have multiple accounts from different regions on the same system so it's still pretty easy.

All Amazon orders (Switch, 1 2 switch, screen protector, etc.) are preparing for shipment. My Best Buy Pro Controllers and Amiibos shipped yesterday. Still waiting for my Gamestop Switch and Zelda SE to ship. My PDP Zelda earbuds shipped yesterday

May not have to go to Walmart tonight

Looks like Best Buy is giving out BOTW posters with the purchase of any Switch product, I wonder if that is for in-store at midnight only or if online orders will have one in the box? Otherwise, I may have to hit up Best Buy at midnight, haha

I got my Special Edition Zelda game today. The box is loving gigantic. I had no idea. It's 14" long and wide as well (penis joke here)

Also Best Buy packed it like absolute poo poo and the box is in pretty lovely condition. Might return it. I'll see.

Is the eShop up yet? In Germany and at work, Amazon says they delivered it at home but I'm going digital so no eShop means I can't actually play anything.

You can prepare your Switch for all these digital games you'll get - and man, what games - but the eshop has no releases listed for today and is thus empty.
