You know what sucks is tomorrow scalpers will be selling them by the hundreds and people that legit wanted them will be stuck waiting until frig knows when for one.

Truly the Grinch who Stole Switchmas...

All my Best Buy stuff has shipped and has an expected delivery date of next Thursday, per Canada Post. ;_;

The Amazon stuff isn't out the door but given past experience it wouldn't surprise me to only see it on the 13th or 14th.

God I love living in New Brunswick.

 

[soultron]

I grabbed a pro controller thanks to the poster who posted the Amazon links to it being back in stock. I can't believe I just paid 100 for a controller...

 

[Sealtest]

So what are the odds Amazon shipped my special edition with my amiibos and just never updated the order? Because it's been at preparing for shipping since yesterday afternoon.

 

[mullet2000]

Well, amazon didn't ship my switch all night and it's been shipping now for over 12 hours.

What's the feasibility of going to pick one up this morning at a downtown Toronto ebgames/best buy? Possible?

 

[TheQueen'sOwn]

Out for delivery as of an hour ago!

BB Ottawa, waiting for it to say out for delivery but it is all (or Doon to be all) in town.

 

[hiim_haz]

All my Amazon stuff says shipping now but without any tracking information and the date still says March 7-8 ugh.

 

[antibolo]

Goddamnit. My Switch has arrived in Montreal at 05:31 but the estimated delivery has now changed to the 6th. Why the fuck are you doing this to me CP.

Shipped but looking like next Tuesday for best buy. I have a last second London drugs order for store pick up by the order status shows shipping which likely means it isn't local as I had hoped :/

Currently waiting inside doors are walmart here in winnipeg. 4th in line and I arrived at 5:30 (store opens in just over an hour). I'll be playing zelda today despite BB and LD shipping.

 

[MrFlooD]

First time being a Prime member isn't paying off. Zelda and my accessories arnt scheduled to ship till Monday...

Good thing I pre-order the switch at my local EB. Will either pickup Zelda from EB or digitally if they don't have stock.

 

[Dragonslayer_023]

Not shipped yet and they told it me would ship yesterday v.v

Man, talk about your troll jobs.

Now this is what I call hardcore effort. Two backup systems fell through and you're still pushing ahead strong to get a Switch for today.

 

[mullet2000]

Know what's ridiculous?

My switch didn't ship all night from amazon, but I can order one NOW that will arrive today with free same day shipping.

Might just do it and return the other one.

 

[Samemind]

Ah...
Watching daylight comeback is the nicest part of camping for a product release

Nevermind. You are all on Top of things.

 

[Dragonslayer_023]

Woah how are they still in stock, launch bomb?

 

[Mathematics]

The dreaded waiting for "out for delivery" status update

 

[Megasoum]

Got to Walmart at 7am and was like 6th in line but #3 for a grey one. I have my coupon and I'm warm inside the store.

Easy peasy

 

[Iamcorrupt]

Sooo yeah I'm apparently not going to get the overnight shipping because reasons?

 

[UberTag]

Woah how are they still in stock, launch bomb?

Launch bomb? No.
Launch over-supply due to misreading demand because of easily avoidable factors? Yes.

How's the BotW amiibo stock at Wal Mart? Thinking of heading there to grab some later today.

 

[mullet2000]

Does anyone in Toronto know if it makes sense to go to the EBgames across from Eaton's this morning? Did they sell out of walk ins last night?

No idea, we're locked in the lobby lol

 

[saskuatch]

Waited in line for 3.5 hours in the freezing cold and I got my neon switch!!!!!

 

[Quenk]

My Amazon order is still listed as "Shipping Today". It's been like that for almost 24 hours now and the expected delivery is 7th-8th. I'm really disappointed in them because if I ordered at 3am I would have had the option for 1-day and gotten it on the 6th.

If you have prime, you can order now for same day shipping NOW, at that.

I'm in the same boat as you. Mine's been "shipping now" for like 30 hours now.

 

[Ryne]

Got my master edition zelda sitting at my mom's home. My bro is telling me the sword thing feels nice and heavy.

Can't wait to pick it up.

 

[soultron]

Think I read in here that they handed out tickets last night so people would not have to wait in the cold. Those people can return just before opening to get one?

Or was that just for the midnight release?

 

[Samstrike]

My switch and Zelda still have not been shipped from Amazon even if the status is ''preparing for shipment'' since yesterday afternoon. Their shipping seem so random it's ridiculous. And I don't have any other option to get the switch today so too bad I guess...

 

[mullet2000]

I think it was a true midnight release. Don't know though.

I have prime but I'm outside the area for same day shipping. One day is the best I could do.

 

[Fuzzy]

Can't wait to pick it up.

I have to wait for mine to come from the US.

EDIT: Wait a minute, I might actually get it today? If I get the Zelda ME from the US before some of you get stuff from Canadian retailers that's some funny shit.

 

[Fumpster]

I'm in Ottawa with Amazon Prime and mine won't be shipping until Monday. Bummer. Seems to be all over the place in terms of shipping.

Says it should arrive on Wednesday, but I'm rooting for Tuesday at least.

 

[UberTag]

Congrats on the dedication! Hope you treated yourself to some cider or cocoa to warm up afterwards.

 

[soultron]

Ordered another copy of Zelda but with Prime same day shipping because it's supposed to get here today, apparently. FFS.

 

[Moppeh]

Lucky.

I gotta wait for Monday.

 

[ahdurian]

so i just was reading through the thread from overnight, and you guys were saying that the new shipment on Amazon is shipping with 1 day delivery...

just ordered another Switch, and now says will be here by 9pm.
im scared to cancel my original order now though...

 

[purpletentacle]

Got this this morning:

"Hello valued PlayStation customer,

We are writing to inform you that PlayStation®Store, including all services such as PlayStation Vue, PlayStation Plus, PlayStation Now, and PlayStation Music, will start collecting tax in your state starting April 1, 2017. The sales tax charged on each order is determined by your state, county and city tax rates."

The dream is dead

(sorry to interrupt all the Switch posts )

 

[NYR]

Double-posting, but this is important for AB-Gaf,

You may want to check your Best Buy orders... Mine says this now:



Scheduled to ship via Canada Post
Delivered Friday Mar. 3

We will issue a tracking number once your item(s) ships. You will be notified by email when this happens.

Mine says this too. So frustrating.

 

[Ryne]

I have to wait for mine to come from the US.

EDIT: Wait a minute, I might actually get it today? If I get the Zelda ME from the US before some of you get stuff from Canadian retailers that's some funny shit.

I ordered it from gamestop in the US as well. Came from Kentucky.

 

[Reich]

Zelda WiiU is coming today in Québec. Im a non-prime member.

DREAM.

 

[saskuatch]

Congrats on the dedication! Hope you treated yourself to some cider or cocoa to warm up afterwards.

Next time I think I will preorder a console even if I'm on the fence and cancel if I don't want

As sad as it is for our wallets, it's been pretty unfair that retail has to pay tax and online didn't. Screws over local businesses

 

[EvilMario]

A bunch of orders have started to update. Looks like next week for everything, including BotW SE. (Toronto, Prime)

Thankfully I have the console preordered in store, so I'll be playing mostly eShop stuff this weekend.

Uhm, we are the one who are paying these "sales taxes" and not the retailers.

It hasn't since you can resell your retail copy.

 

[kitschykitty]

On Xbox Live the Battlefield & Titanfall 2 Deluxe pack is $56 or 67% off. This happened a few days ago but I just noticed it, it's lower than normal.

 

[cube444]

I ordered it from gamestop in the US as well. Came from Kentucky.

That's where my stuff usually leaves as well before arriving to me in Toronto.
