I asked in the other thread but is Best Buy forming 2 separate lines for preorder and non preorder? I don't wanna stand in line until 1 AM
Nintendo Switch Preorder Thread (U.S.)
- Thread starter That Damn Kid
- Start date
Come say hi to me at the Braintree Best Buy
I'm in Medford, have a Switch preordered to ship but I was thinking about dropping by the Everett BB for a Pro Controller. How is the line at Braintree?
Lame.
What about the headphone jack on the Switch itself? Does it still output audio when docked?
Yes, you can set it to do that.

Just messed around and updated the system, changed settings in regards to the UI, everything is nice and snappy like a UI should be. The Joy-cons are a blast to use 1 in each hand while navigating. I will upload some pics with the red joy-cons when I get some time, right now my system is charging. And for headphones users, they work fine while docked in case you care about that sort of thing, and I have a 3.5mm extention cable on the way so I don't have to be super close to the system to enjoy headphones
Not there yet haha. I figure I'd be safe going around 10. Someone in a thread said only about 10 pro controllers for their best buy so it maybe harder to get one of those than a switch.
Andre from GameXplain confirmed it does work.

Nice, doing the same thing with the red joy cons.

If I wake up tomorrow morning and my switch order hasn't shipped from Amazon, then it's time to start panicking.
Grey console from GameStop online shipped and is due for delivery tomorrow. Standard Zelda, neon joy cons, AC adapter, Hori tough case and Hori premium screen protector all shipped from Amazon and are due for delivery tomorrow. Only item still waiting to be shipped from Amazon is the guide for Zelda. So hyped for tomorrow!!
Dont you mean buy it and then sell your unopened copy?

They open at 11pm, you buy whatever you have to, but can only leave after midnight
so my Pro Con is showing that it is gonna ship today, with 2day shipping, but still del on Tuesday... Hrm.. Can't wait to see if the Amazon system updates delivery date as I should get it no later than Sunday, and if they didn't ship it with Sunday Delivery Imma gonna get some skin back on the deal....
Everything else should be delivered around midday tomorrow, so I got no worries.
Looking forward to a fun weekend.

Here at bestbuy just south of cleveland, you do the chilling outside.
Not there yet, I have a switch coming from Amazon going to go around 10 just for fun and see if I can get blue joy cons or zelda special edition. Oh and you know there is a Gamestop right next to that Best Buy doing a midnight launch so two places to try to score stuff.

If I don't wake up to a shipped console I am jumping off a 1 story building. If you don't hear from me ever again, it's because I twisted an ankle.

No. It's a money sink. There's no replayability. The puzzles are designing for toddlers. You're forced to repeat the mind numbing puzzles every time. Repeating these levels is the only way to level new figures. The combat is...Fine. Overall not worth it.

My Pro Controller shipped from Best Buy. No info yet where it is. I am in Southern California.
I never really figured it out, tbh. I think the "the WiiU has no games/is a flop" thing just became ingrained in people, and none of them ever bought one (/used mine lol), and then once the NX rumors and hype started to go up for the last year and a half or so, it just became "well I'll buy that when it comes out I guess"
They all have 3DSes

I'm sure it will be here tomorrow and UPS just shit to update, but its fun to get worried for a console release, part of the hype.
But if they end up UPSing me over, Imma be mad.

Absolutely
Saaaame here. I swear to god if they use that shitty ass Dynamex service that just drops packages outside of my door while I'm at work right as the high schoolers in my apartment complex get home, I'm gonna lose my shit.

Hey, do you remember how much charge was on the Switch when you got it? I have Zelda and Bomberman coming tomorrow, but would love to play some Shovel Knight tonight before charging for 3 hours.
