That remix is awesome. Why have I never heard it before!
Did you make those? That's awesome.
Makes me want to do something now I'll need snack food and maybe a glass of wine for this thing. Wish I could invite friends over and make it a party but no one will be up.

Was too afraid to say this. I can't stand having one unread email let alone 25000.

Have a 24hr Walmart like five minutes from me. Might just drive over there after the Switch presentation and try to snag a pre-order if that sheet is legit. Assuming I can't get one off of Amazon.
Tomorrow in store.

Shit, I never would have thought of Walmart. Luckily all the monster chains are consolidated in one consumerist hellhole near me so I'll hit them all if I have to.
Whut? After the event or do you mean now
will you be in the movie theatre in the morning?
because the event is at 5AM and amazon.de will probably put pre-orders up around 7AM-8AM

Oh god I'm filming all day tomorrow - I really hope they're doing US Amazon pre-orders right after the presentation.

I wonder if they'll be available for preorder right after the presentation. I'll watch the presentation from my mobile device while in the store if so
This is first time Wal-Mart is doing a pre-order / pre-sell for a console. Wal-Mart threw money at Nintendo to get more quantity than GameStop. Also, GameStop and Nintendo relationship is currently on bad terms so that's why reduced quantity.

I'll trade my launch xbox one if I can get $150 towards a Switch
I have an S that is ready to be used
do it Gamestop
Damn, should have traded my Wii U the other day. It said the trade value was $150 and now today it's $120 for 32gb deluxe ver. Oh well, we'll see the trade deals.
Someone thought that cookie needed some uh.... "cream" to go along with. Welp.

Shit. Just realized. If the release date is March 17th, that's when I'm getting married. I'll be out of town. Should I try to preorder online and make them send it to where my wedding is going to be (uncle's house)?

Happy to order with Amazon UK and then cancel if I can get in early with someone else. Would prefer to go for SimplyGames or John Lewis.

Of all the shit that might be shown tonight this interests me almost more than anything.

I mean, you could. But always pay in full so they give your preorder priority.
To be fair there are fewer overall stores in Europe to distribute to. Every Gamestop in the US getting 20 Switches is still tens of thousands more overall units than every GAME in the UK getting 100.

Tomorrow as in 12:01am? Just trying to figure out when to go in.
Layaway usually closes by a certain time. So when layaway opens at your store on the 13th.

What are the chances of the Switch getting a normal power cable to charge it? I'm gonna want to use this thing for extended play sessions on my living room couch, and my housemate and I don't keep a TV in our living room. And if there is a power cable, will it bump the Switch out of downclocked mode like the dock does? I really hope so.

Or you could just do what a normal person would do and cancel the wedding? Jesus man, get your priorities straight!
PS4 Pro had a line here at gamestop.....imagine switch is going to be like riots outside the fucking door
You've been able to preorder from GAME and ShopTo for a long while now. I preordered mine at GAME (in-store) on Wednesday.
I am told this is a first corporate wide.
the 4chan list is not a "games on release" list.
it's a "games you're able to play at the nintendo switch event in europe"-list
Change your wedding venue to your nearest game shop or better yet have in New York at Nintendo World or whatever it's called. Job done. Happiest day of your life.....plus you'll also get married.

Skip the wedding. You can always find another bride / groom later. Console launches? Those are far more rare.
