Can you ask your RA for a temporary connection or something? (is a resident advisor even a thing in college dormrooms? Maybe movies tricked me)
It's been said for a while and even confirmed recently that the retail version runs better then what is being demoed at events. Even the issues the retail version might have seem like they're limited to the starting area based on some comments.
I'll see if I can ask someone, but I doubt it since the uni uses a third-party thing to take care of its internet.
EDIT: Of course it could support WPA-2 Enterprise but we just don't know it yet since nobody's tested it. It's not unprecedented considering they've also included other much-wanted settings such as full RGB range this time around, that and they have shown it being used in work & university settings (though this doesn't really say much).
Wish we had someone finding this stuff out.

have any of these previews spoken to the quality of the "d-pad" solution?

Wait, Waku Waku 7 is coming near launch? I love that game! Anyone hear when it's hitting the US?

I would have to guess they're preparing a planned statement and plan of action by next week. Corporate response between international sectors just before he weekend is less quick than a dev member responding to a bug.
It felt like 25 fps with fluctuation up and down, possibly some input lag - or maybe resulting in input lag. Baring in mind I only had 10 minutes with it. When I played it in portable mode, it was a tad better I think.
While it looked good (especially in portable mode, but not bad in TV mode either - I was super close to the TV) it was annoying, especially when I attacked.
The grass looks good, seems to fade in well, the enemies were cool and I can tell there was a fair bit going on mechanically...but as someone sensitive to fps and input, it bugged me.
People have replied a few times to say that there are reports of the final version being better than the preview build I played at the event, so there's hope if you're picky about that stuff too.
I don't feel like any preview I have read has taken it seriously.

It'll probably be look upon when they get other games the next week.

If they talk about the face buttons they're indirectly talking about the direction buttons. They're the same thing.
I like the joycon d-pad, they're not all that bad. I was skeptical. But I even preferred it to the Pro controller I tried, which was extremely stiff, but the pro controller itself was fantastic to hold (I felt it was better than X1 ergonomically - not the d-pad though).
The buttons on the joycon are close together and small so it's not quite rocking back and forth but not too far off to change buttons, and they were nice and soft but still a decent bit of resistance.

Damn, all thse neon switch previews
Grey just looks lifeless but let's be honest you wont' spend that much time looking at the controllers after a while.

I hope soon-ish so we can get reviews/previews of some of the downloadable games. Snipperclips, Specter of Torment, Fast RMX, etc.
Indeed, and I likely will when snipperclips comes out in the bundle, but man, grey looks lifeless now (as the other poster says)

The hyper I get the more games I want to get, I think I might get 1-2 Switch
The grey looked quite dark to me, didn't look that bad. Neon was quite nice too though 
Though the lighting was pretty dim at the event.

Is there even a place to still get one in the US
Preorder, no.
But there will be some walk-in stock available on release day at big retailers.

Neon is so much better to me than any nostalgia colors. I want Neon Yellow and Neon Green.

Nothing that I am aware of. I really want to hear about the damn online functions. I can wait and be grumpy about it.

Every time I think I'm happy with my Grey preorder, a Neon unboxing makes me want both.

He played USFII at a preview event and was pretty positive on it.
I'm not sure if he really liked USFII or was just angling for a free Switch though. haha

Nah... Neon although awesome would drive me insane not being uniform in color with the rest of the system.

Thanks for answering if I can't get one at launch ill just wait for the Re-Stock I guess.
Yeah, I'd like to know about that. Or at least if reviewers here remember when the day one update was rolled out for Wii U review units.

I think it's fine, but as someone who usually picks black/grey, I do like the Neon JoyCon. Almost picked that SKU but Best Buy sold out of it first.
Pls let this happen.

I didn't want to make a new thread, but...
Has anything been said about when we should see the Switch ports of Minecraft and Stardew Valley? These two games are games my daughter wants super bad.

Nothing yet but considering we've just had three launch games dated this week they're hopefully not too far off. Especially Minecraft.
