I was about to pull the trigger but I'm going to wait and see what's in the collector's and master editions first.
You don't think they'll sell out of the base version, do you?

If this doesn't go up soon and becomes an Amiibo/NES Classic situation, I'm gonna be pissed.

 

[leroidys]

Is this up anywhere?

You know its gonna be and i'm gonna be pissed right there with u. :|

 

[Savage_Otters]

Thanks for sharing this- just pre-ordered them both. Nice 20% discount for Prime members, it was a benefit I didn't know I had!

 

[Relix]

Hoping the Master Edition and the actual console go on. Come on Amazon, my eyes are starting to shut

 

[outunderthestars]

Argh. i want to go all digital but that Zelda set is making it tough.

 

[Marvie_3]

I need that Master Sword Edition.

 

[gwiz210]

Judging by history, when do ya'll think they'll put up the console itself for preorder?

 

[Meffer]

I hope so.

Im giving up at 2 AM EST, I got work for fucks sake

 

[Izayoi]

What the fuck, why are they doing this to us?

 

[Vanillalite]

Fuck it

Going to bed. I tried to wait. Oh well

 

[Biske]

Doesn't Amazon have some wonko relationship with Nintendo and hardware?

I remember not being able to get the Wii U from Amazon. Seems you still cant get one directly from them.


Are we sure they will be selling the Switch at all?

 

[Relix]

Yeah I am waiting 20 minutes and I am off to bed. Screw you Amazon, everyone else has it

 

[Meffer]

Im giving up at 2 AM EST, I got work for fucks sake

Yeah, I got homework to finish tomorrow. I need my 40 winks.

 

[Already Torn]

Ain't interested in Splatoon but I got Zelda

 

[IrishNinja]

holy hell @ those LE's, dying to know the price

 

[KenzinFive]

Pre-ordered Breath of the Wild. Even I don't get a Switch at launch, pre-ordering through Amazon lets me take off around $10 of the price. Nintendo games never really drop in price, so I guess it's better to snag it now and hope console pre-orders don't go up at 3am or something.

Amazon recently sold an exclusive lime green edition of the n3DS so I assumed they patched up their business relationship in time for the Switch.

 

[Steveo]

Is Amazon even selling the Switch? I seem to recall Amazon having an issue with Nintendo hardware and refused to sell it for a few years. Did they ever resolve the issue?

 

[ZeroMaverick]

So if I sign up for the email alert, will it alert me when pre orders are up? Will my email notification wake me up in time to preorder?!?

 

[takoyaki]

Amazon has a listing for the Switch and it says ”currently unavailable", but do we know for sure that they'll be selling the console directly?

They had his weird dispute with Nintendo because of damaged 3DS units that Nintendo refused to replace and Amazon stopped selling Nintendo hardware directly. Anyone know if this is still ongoing, all the available WiiU/3D hardware seems to be marketplace sellers?

They started selling hardware again a while back. They even got a exclusive green New 3DS XL.

They sold the black friday $99 3DS no problem

Well thats good news.


On the other hand, back to refreshing Amazon like a jackass.

 

[Piggus]

Would be nice if the hardware preorders would go up so that us people with actual jobs could go to bed. :/

 

[Already Torn]

It's not gonna be hard to get the games that come out in late 2017/2018

 

[jabuseika]

$60 games.

No.

 

[adversarial]

Couldn't pre-order through Best Buy due to getting paid tomorrow and not having $300 in my account, hopefully, Amazon doesn't place that hold like BestBuy / Walmart does.

Eurogamer claims 7am UK time so maybe 2am EST?

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I wish the hardware would go up

but I got 4 games pre-ordered

 

[vatstep]

I'd be surprised if console pre-orders go up tonight. Amazon plays by their own rules.

 

[Makki]

I have to buy it from Amazon or Target out of principle since you get 5% off lol...

 

[takoyaki]

I think they are at a good place with Amazon these days

Thanks, didn't know that. The wait continues.

I think they are at a good place with Amazon these days they sell digital stuff through them they sold 3Ds's, NES Classic and Wii-U is out of production so and Amazon UK is selling it why wouldn't Amazon US?

I would be baffled if Switch didn't go up for sale but knowing Amazon it's probably gonna be 3am or they will do one of those "Hey we will be selling it on X date at X time so scalpers get your 30 amazon accounts ready"

I don't think Amazon does a pre-auth.

 

[Reptars Revenge]

No.

Hahah what is going on today?

 

[Vanillalite]

Amazon doesn't charge till when they actually start processing your order to ship.

That's partly why people are waiting for Amazon vs say Best Buy

 

[Biske]

They don't.

They only charge you when it ships. Amazon is godly in that way.

Its a free pre-order and peace of mind until its actually on its way to you. Really nice to be able to pre-order things I'm not sure of and then just cancel the order if I want, no harm, no foul.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Street Fighter II is $40+ btw. LOL.

well really hope in 10 minutes

I fear going to sleep and waking up to not being able to get my pre-order with Amazon Prime

Crossing fingers for 2AM EST.....
