Got a call yesterday from Gamestop by my job. Said they'll have it in Friday but can't hold it past end of day Friday. Shouldn't be an issue.

Just hate carrying a console on the subway on launch day, lol.

 

[Version 3.0]

My Best Buy order status says the switch is ready for pickup right now. Zelda is still in progress though. Any pick theirs up in store yet?

Nah, you can't get it until midnight. If you signed up for text notifications, you should get a text that says pick up between March 3rd and 11th.

 

[FettS1]

Just got my official email from Gamestop!

FYI - I'm in Maryland. Apparently it's being overnight shipped from Kentucky.

 

[ThatMattZ]

Thanks. I've preordered hardware with overnight delivery from GameStop before and they have always delivered. I'm just super anxious about the Switch. Haven't been this hyped for a console since N64.

 

[Persona7]

Seems my Zelda SE and Switch are both coming in the same box. Switch just updated with the same tracking number.

 

[LotusHD]

They finally took my fucking money lol, Switch inbound!

 

[big_erk]

This has become my most anticipated console release in recent memory.

 

[BuggyMike]

Ayyye for anyone using Target (all 4 of you), give yours a check. My pre-order is on it's way, left at 9AM this morning.

 

[Ran Ran]

Amazon still says zelda and the switch is coming tomorrow but it still says preparing to ship. Should I be worried?

Mine is the same way. I don't know about you but I am lol

 

[VeryGooster]

Just got the shipment confirmation from GameStop

 

[shnurgleton]

this Amazon "Preparing for shipment" nonsense is KILLING me

 

[KevinG]

Switch and Pro Controller from Amazon have been wonky all day.

From Preparing, to Not Yet Shipped, back to Preparing, then to Shipping Today to Shipping Now and back to Shipping Today.

 

[Blunoise]

Cool GameStop emails coming in....still waiting on mine

 

[BFIB]

this Amazon "Preparing to ship" nonsense is KILLING me

They are probably doing a lot of orders today, so its possible your already on the pallet with a tracking #, the company handling the shipping just hasn't picked up yet.

 

[Vegetable Lasagna]

Last Night my order went from Preparing for Shipment to Not Yet Shipped, and it's now back at Preparing for Shipment. Charges have been in the pending state on my card for over 24 hours... Still says I'll receive it by tomorrow at 8pm though.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Gamestop shipped! It's happening

 

[WonkyPanda]

Best Buy

In-store: Zelda & Pro Controller - ready to pickup
Shipping: Gray Switch - preparing

:

I don't want to live in this "preparing" hell anymore

Is your switch being shipped?

 

[sadromeo]

Neon Switch arrived just now from BestBuy. East Coast US

Lucky, so lucky! Congrats!

 

[Lucario]

Switch and Pro Controller from Amazon have been wonky all day.

From Preparing, to Not Yet Shipped, back to Preparing, then to Shipping Today to Shipping Now and back to Shipping Today.

Same here. Pretty far from a distribution center too, so I'm not optimistic.

 

[Piggus]

Happy times.

 

[Lunarwhale]

my switch and zelda are still "preparing" to ship. not doing in-store pickup was a mistake

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

My Bomberman was set for a Tuesday delivery date, but it's shipping now. So I can hope it'll come with my Switch tomorrow or maybe the next day.

 

[Mihos]

If you live in or near a hub city, sometimes you won't get an individual tracking number because the system is on a pallet with other people in your areas units and will not be individualized until the pallet is broken down locally. I have had things from Best Buy not give me a tracking number until the same day as delivery, and have even looked up the tracking numbers sent to me to see it already has been delivered before.

 

[ShikabaneHime13]

Just got my official email from Gamestop!

FYI - I'm in Maryland. Apparently it's being overnight shipped from Kentucky.

No email yet but mine is coming from the same place. DC resident here

 

[Arcaenum]

Neon Switch and BotW just shipped from Amazon for me. That's weight off my shoulders.

 

[shiftplusone]

this Amazon "Preparing for shipment" nonsense is KILLING me

Mine was preparing at 6 am this morning and switched back to not yet shipped


Now, I'm in Texas and about 35 miles from the distribution center in Dallas but our USPS service is fucking terrible here. In the 2 years I've lived here I've gotten like 10 of those"sorry we missed you!" slips on anything heavier than 3 pounds

 

[vgamer1]

My Zelda Master Edition arrived at an Amazon Facility in Pittsburgh, PA.

I live in Pittsburgh, PA.

SO CLOSE

 

[ESBL]

No shipment info from Gamestop yet, but good news, I got my Airpods from Best Buy.

 

[Cowie]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Karspankey]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Congrats!

Spoiler

you lucky SOB

 

[ShikabaneHime13]

No shipment info from Gamestop yet, but good news, I got my Airpods from Best Buy.

That's always a win. Want them but 6 week shipping from Apple... No thanks. Got a set of Beats Solo3 wireless yesterday from Verizon and had them added to my bill

 

[Vargas]

For those of you getting the UPS update from your GameStop orders where are you located? Mine is still showing open and nothing in My Choice.

NYC

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

After an incident today of a co-worker opening a piece of furniture I had shipped to my workplace I'm gonna have to keep an ear out for UPS so I can intercept my package when it arrives.

 

[JimJamJones]

Both of my buddies got their GameStop Zelda shipping emails.

Mine still says Open.

 

[fluttershy]

Mine still says Open.

Same here. Trying not to freak out about it.

 

[ESBL]

That's always a win. Want them but 6 week shipping from Apple... No thanks. Got a set of Beats Solo3 wireless yesterday from Verizon and had them added to my bill

I'd reconsider the Airpods, these things are amazing, love the fact that there are no wires.

 

[J4mm1nJ03]

Woo, Pro Controller for Best Buy just shipped. I can't see the actual details yet but it should be coming tomorrow I assume. Now I'm just waiting for Amazon to ship my Switch, 1-2 Switch, and case, which are all marked as shipping today. Can't wait!

 

[DownWithTheShip]

My Best Buy pick up, ready to pick up?

Oh...but I guess we can't right?

Fuck

Same here. I was ready to run out and realized that they probably wont give it to me.

Edit: YES! My BB is having a midnight release!

 

[Gaspard]

Zelda shipped rn so i'm all good with preorders.

 

[Velocity:Design:Comfort]

Best Buy

In-store: Zelda & Pro Controller - ready to pickup
Shipping: Gray Switch - preparing

:\

Do you happen to live in the Southeast?

 

[ShikabaneHime13]

I'd reconsider the Airpods, these things are amazing, love the fact that there are no wires.

I will still get a pair. Just waiting for 1.) the product to be more readily available. I want to walk into a store and get them like you did. And 2.) I want to wait and see what the new iphone is like this fall

 

[dottme]

I've just found that there is a Zelda poster for Best Buy midnight release on there website.
So I'll try to grab my switch tonight.

 

[zreese]

Ahhh my Amazon pre-order now has a delivery date of Tuesday! I called customer service and they said it's already shipping so they can't do anything about it. Does anyone know of inventory numbers for Best Buy/Gamestop/Walmart? Might camp out for a walk-in at midnight.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

- Gamestop Grey Switch shipped, arriving tomorrow.
- Zelda from Amazon Shipped, arriving tomorrow (shipping via amazon shipping services ...)
- Amazon Neon Still says shipping soon...
- Pro Controller Ready for Pick up from Best Buy

Think I'm almost there!

 

[h0tp0ck3t]

Still nothing, come on Gamestop!

 

[Morts]

I got the shipping notification from Best Buy around 11 am. Tracking says Awaiting UPS pickup.

I probably should've ordered Zelda. And a Pro Controller.

 

[chronos4590]

Best Buy says "items ready for pickup"
What a tease. Why can't I just go there and pick it up right now 😫😫......🤔🤔🤔🤔

 

[LucidFlux]

Since this morning, 2/6 of my orders with Best Buy (Atlanta) have shipped. (Zelda and a Pro Controller)

The other 4 are still "preparing" (various amiibos, Switch Console, another pro controller, Zelda for Wii U)

All orders still say 3/3 arrival.

 

[The Futurist]

Just a heads up in case people are still waiting on Target.

They just shipped my Switch which will most likely arrive on Saturday.

Best Buy Switch and pro controller should arrive tomorrow.

 

[Dives]

You're cutting it real close Amazon.
