IVE DONE IT IVE SUCCEEDED PICK UP AT MY LOCAL BEST BUY
Well I guess I’m going to bed then. I’m glad that most of you enjoyed it more than I did. *sigh* damn it school… 5 hours of sleep is going to be fun
🙁
I want to go to bed…. But it’s already time for me to wake up T_T
The whole idea that it’s a combination of every console is just mind blowing to think about. It takes almost every aspect of every system to make a complete, prefect hybrid of them all, along with awesome additions to it. Just thinking that what made every console awesome was forged into this is spectacular, awesome job Nintendo. ??
Lemme transfer over my digital library pleeeease. I have no problem paying a fee.
i think i got best buy
I guess I’ll stay up and wait for games, I’ve got 80 bucks of Gamestop cards and I want to make sure I have something to play.
BotW here I come.
So what’s coming at launch, Zelda and 1-2 Switch? Is that it?
and fanboys everywhere
(that was gross but I think its funny)
Maybe MK, who knows.
I heard that’s April, so very close to launch.
That’s fair. BotW should keep me fairly busy, but honestly launch is looking kinda sad.

AWAITING RELEASE DATE
Congratulations!
Though I thought you were refreshing Amazon…
who CARES MONEY IS NO ISSUE FOR ME
also i could buy the Master Edition on Amazon
It’s a great sign that Best Buy hasn’t sold out quite yet! This is just the initial pre-orders as well. The NES Classic would have been long gone by now.
Plus now I get day one with an in store pickup rather than getting it shipped days late!
I’m happy for you, I need to wait for Amazon though, or else I won’t be able to use my huge amount of credit. They better say something NOW.
Best of luck my avian friend, I hope you can secure a preorder soon!
Did you get the one with the neon Joy-Cons?
Nope, though I could’ve, I didn’t. I just know the mix matched colors would’ve driven me crazy.
Plus I’ve grown attached to that particular shade of switch grey.
Honestly All I need now is to know that it’ll be easy to add in fan translation patches and this thing will be the best thing ever for me. I can already see all my Jrpgs and strategy games on the horizon.
Hey wasn’t Elysium a place on the fallen arm?
No, it doesn’t seem to be. Tough it might be from the Xenogears series.
Just seeing all these graphics on the Switch…
And that Pokemon Stars is probably coming to the Switch. Like I am so pumped for what it will look like, plus the addition of walking with your Pokemon possibly.
Breath of the Wild Switch is up for pre-order on Amazon! Something is happening at least.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MS6MO77/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1484287059&sr=8-3&keywords=breath+of+the+wild
Actually, all of the games are up for pre-order! We just need the darn system.
Keep your third eye peeled.
Waiting on GS. I know it won’t sell out that fast (at least I’d hope) but I’d like to secure everything while I can.
Yeeee paid in full and can pick up in person via Best Buy
JP Launch Titles: https://www.nintendo.co.jp/software/switch/index.html
* Zelda Breath of the Wild
* 1 2 Switch
* Dragon Quest Heroes 1+2
* Nobunaga no Yabou Power Kit thingy (anime licensed game)
* I am Setsuna
* Puyo Puyo Tetris S
* Disgaea 5
* Super Bomberman R
Looks a bit sparse if you asked me. But I love my Puyo Puyo and I can import it.
Basically BotW and things people won’t care about.
It’s a really bad lineup D:
See my and Koji Kondo’s comments. 🙂
Besides that I think RPG and Strategy fans care about Disgaea though… plus Warriors fans exist for DQ Heroes…
you do not speak ill of Disgaea 5. I will sick a squad of Prinnies on you Dood.
There are a lot of people who cares about dragon quest
Bomberman!!! 😀
*whimpers* Errrrr I LOVE BOMBERMAN SO MUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Me and my Dad used to play it together, along with Super Mario 64 and Banjo Kazooie
All I need is Zelda. That alone will hold me over. I never buy more than one game at launch anyway.
Wait… I just thought of the best idea ever:
Overwatch for the Switch
ARMS looks pretty good to me too.
Ughhhhh the pre-orders for mario odyssey and Splat2 are up to i impulsively buy them now or later
only costs 11 bucks after my gift cards
I thought money wasn’t an issue… but assuming it is, obviously if you have spares…
Do you pay the entire thing up front? Or just some downpayment?
cold hard credit dawg
also i’m getting paid tomorrow so yeah, i’m kinda on a pre-order banaza
Oh, I was asking if you have to pay the entire cost of the game to pre-order, or just something token like $5 to reserve…
I would just go for it if it was the latter. But if the former… well… it seems like a pain to lose some money for something that doesn’t have a concrete release date…
Can we all go back to regular profile pics now though? I’m horrible with names, I recognize people mainly by their pictures.
I haven’t told anyone but….. I hate this prof pic, I will change it later
Good

im liking my new profile pic
No no, back to skiddo with an eyepatch or whatever it is you use these days
I have my name in parentheses! But yeah I’ll be back to Amethyst and Granbull tomorrow, plus simply being Malco.
I’m back I think, right?
Yep, welcome back, Marshadow!
Thank you!
Seeing all of the game pre-orders pop up on Amazon makes me think I should wait a while for the system to pop up tonight, what do you guys think?
ShinyXatu’s Darkside: Stay up all night. You’ll regret it if you miss out and it sells out.
I’m seriously willing to if there’s a possibility of it happening. I just remember Amazon announcing their NES Classic pre-order ahead of time.
who know’s really. Though as an aside it is kinda perfect that the darkside kermit meme takes almost no effort in editing for you.
Tbh… Xenoblade 2 and Oddessey hyped me… but that was it
Xenoblade 2 was sorta ugly. But I understand they they aren’t far into development so I forgive them.
But just the sheer idea that it is gonna happen excited me
There hasn’t been many interesting things in the Livestream tbh. btw gotta love that prof pic
Thank you!
I actually knew about Oddessey but DAMN it was so cool!
April 28 for MK8 Deluxe, everyone. I’m definitely hyped!
With Splatoon characters!
How are there no pokemon characters honestly?
Just let me be a Golisopod
Not araquanid?
As much as I’d love it, the proportions cannot work
Also, if we were going off favorites, Marshadow
Uh oh, Araquanid is falling out of favor…
No, I love Araquanid, but It can’t drive a car
So yeah
That’s what you think..
True, King Boo is a thing
It has two legs to hold the steering wheel. And two other legs for acceleration and brake. And two other legs for honking the horn and throwing items. It’s OK! 🙂
Hmmm… I’d see it more as having a vehicle themed after it
Hopefully! we haven’t seen all the new characters I assume
I hope there are more. King boo is a good start. Meh on splatoon. I generally think they should stay in their own game till we cover more of the holes they left in the roster
I’ll only be hyped if they give me my fucking queen bee and wiggler back!
(Curls up in a corner) I GOT MY CHILD BACK!! DRY BONES LEGION!
They gave us Dry bowser instead. :/ I’m still pissed they gave us all those damn baby variants and pink gold peach. Like WTF is that shit. And no, I don’t want to be cat suit mario for crying out fucking loud. I’ll play 3D world if I do
No but they added Dry bones into the dlc and I am stupidly happy
For deluxe
Ohhh well that’s good
That split second made me squeal
I love Dry Bones :3
Did they? I have it, but I guess forgot about him.

That’s all that launched with Wii… seemed to work out fine. 2008 was filled with game after game after game. Maybe 2018 will be the same haha
Is 1-2 Switch not a pack-in game?
It doesn’t say, but it’s likely the new Wii Sports / Nintendo Land.
It definitely is, so I’m sure it must be.
breathe of the wild is for me

WHY DOES LIFE HATE ME
You can still pre-order it though, there clearly isn’t as big of a rush as many people expected.
Ok I made credit card updates and its processing
Can we all just appreciate this Breath of the Wild trailer? It’s a piece of art.

I almost cried
In all honesty, I haven’y enjoyed a Zelda game since WW. I’m not going to be picking up BotD, but Nintendo really knocked this game out of the park in visuals. Now here’s hoping that the Gameplay will be good enough.
TP got me into the series and SS is the pinnacle of Zelda imo lmao Y We Alwayz Disagee!?
SS is great, but fighting demise as the big monster thing happened too many times and running around trying to find the light droplets or whatever without getting caught was so stressful. The desert place was also way too big. Still loved the game though (you can tell I haven’t played in a while)
Agreed for the most part. The 3rd Demise battle def gave me a headache. And the droplets were stressful, but, for me, more of a stress that you laugh off after completing the task. And I actually like how massive the desert is. But i get where you’re coming from.
It was just kind of hard to move around the desert for me. No good pathways to connect the different areas. I liked the forest realm and the water one better in SS.
Fair point
LBW was good. You didn’t like TP or SS?
I didn’t really like LBW. It was ok, but I played it more for the sake of playing it then enjoying it. I didn’t care for the darker, murky visuals of TP and I hate motion controls so SS was never for me.
Aw that’s a shame. At least the music was phenomenal though, no?
Oh yeah. The music in all Zelda games is amazing.
Before I go I just wanna apologize for how immature and rude I was. I gotta calm down. I mean I have a backlog of games I need to play anyways, it’s fine. Anyways goodnight for real this time
Good night!
It’s OK, good night!
And nice new avatar too.
