Oh come on. Splattlefield and Sonic Paranoia are very plausible titles...
A genius who spent years thinking of it.
Etika just put tape on his eyes to keep them opened. He is about to pass out after streaming for 20 hours straight lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I3ykPrt59E
edit: damn it he just removed the tape already ha.

For a console launch, this is pretty impressive. Good going, NoA. Hopefully it's a similar situation at other retailers.

I'll be surprised if they get into that. Would be nice to know, though.

First Ive see you in this thread! Glad your hype is in check!
If the answer is anything other than rare, you're doing it wrong.
Doubt it. There are litterally 1000s of titles across 6-7 generations of nintendo consoles that could be added to a subscription based Virtual Console service. No one could play them all in a month.
Besides people regularly replay games

Likely. But they sure look gorgeous like this don't they?

Can confirm. Every contact I have at GS still was in this range.
If I remember correctly preorders for the PS4 and XB1 were in a similar range at most of the stores when I was working there.
Thats a lot better then I thought it was going to be.
Will be curious to see how quickly they get sold out online.

Any news on Best Buy preorders?
It's not as bad as many feared. That initial GoNintendo info frightened folks.
An hour
Settle in folks, we are in for a ride. Got the kids in bed. Going to spend a few hours watching bad TV and cuddling with my wife. Then in just under 3 hours going to tune into the folks at EZA for a little pre-show. Then on to the main event. If either Zelda or 3DVD Mario is at launch it is day 1. Anything other than that would be icing on the cake. Stap in!
I for one am looking forward to Metroid Prime Rib - Confection.from gamestop employee
i think its fake tho

He specially said GC games and the way Nintendo trickles games out it's not like there's going to be 50 GC games right away. We might be lucky to see 20 GC games in the Switches life.
Thanks
Is it? It seems like very little to me, but I'm not knowledgable on this production stuff.
I just hope Amazon UK and GAME get enough to fulfil the mammoth preorders they'll be receiving. Or simply just cut it off once the limit on allocation has been met.

No idea if this have been posted before but, like 20 minutes ago a chilean store (one of the biggest around here) published this on their facebook fanpage, claiming that "while we wait for the reveal, take a look at this accesories", basically confirming the Hori leak.
Two things called my attention tho, a grip for the controller in multiple colors and some sort of thumbs for the sticks that can be swapped. No idea if it is a stickers, a full swap, the store didn't specified.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Wouldn't surprise me in the least when the database flios to the next day in the middle of the night.
I'm probably fucked if that's the case, but I'll just solder on until I get my next option.

Reading a thread about users speculating about wii's price. It's incredible how ten years later the discussion is very similar.

The thought of Gamecube VC alone gets me hyped.
I'd be up for this just for Rogue Squadron alone. Everything else would be icing on the cake.

For context how many was it for PS4/xb1 per store? Anyone know

It's what most retailers receive for a new console launch during the holidays, if not a bit more. It's a good number.
The hope is that online retailers each receive a large allotment.

It better be an hour and 15, 20 minutes the minimum.

Will the stream be available to watch after the event? I have work tomorrow, so not sure I want to get up at 4am to watch the presentation, but I want to find out the info via the presentation rather than Twitter! So would prefer to watch it in the morning.
Also, I'm not going to sweat it about preorders. Realistically, Nintendo are aiming to capture the imagination of an audience way beyond people aware of tonight's presentation. Most people are going to find out about the Switch via the mainstream media and Nintendo's advertising over the next couple of months, so the product has to be available to them. Worst case scenario is a Wii situation, but even with the Wii release, it wasn't selling out on pre-orders two months in advance (at least not in the UK).
