Update went to bestbuy because they had an online pre order they wouldn't sell me Sunday or Saturday claiming it had to be held. Was the very first customer Monday morning and oh surprisingly an employee bought it. Fml. So mad right now.

Write a complaint. I'm sure they'll at least throw you some store credit. That's bullshit.
This thread is making feel a bit guilty. I have a switch sitting in my basement waiting for my birthday in April. Someone could be playing it right now... But if they aren't restocking till mid April, I'm glad I'm in the clear. Only problem is, I wish I got the neon one and it doesn't seem likely that I'll have a chance to "switch" it out before my birthday. Sorry to all those still looking. Good luck!
IMO, in person, the grey looks really really nice and feels very high end in your hands.
Yeah, I'm coming around to it. I loved the grey in the reveal and I thought the neon looked too kiddy. But the more I look at the neon the more I think, why can't I be that whimsical and open to fun? But can I pull it off? I don't know...

Here's my final tracking log from Amazon.es, it moved extremely quickly for me once the package shipped and I've heard that experience is almost uniform for all orders. Regarding customs, I've been watching Amazon.es reports for a week now and haven't seen a single complaint of a shipment being delayed for customs on either end; as you can see, it took almost no time in my case either. Good luck to everyone waiting on Switches from Spain this week!

Mine was supposed to ship on the 10th, but no movement yet. I tried chatting with support, and was told that "The Switch is not available right now, but will be available from March 18, 2017. This is why you have not been sent on the established date"
I sure hope it ships before that, and am supposed to get getting some more information.
So my work runs a prof am where you can get recognized for work above and beyond. This recognition involves accruing points so that about 1pt is 2 dollars. And you trade these points for merchandise (or visa gift cards).
And today neon switch consoles appeared under the title "NES", so I flat bought one right away. Never been burned before so let's see if this thing comes in...
So work bought me a switch, thanks work!
It's against company policy. Tell the manager you're going to call corporate because they aren't allowed to do that shitYeah I was pretty pissed I didn't take it out on the guy behind the counter but I definitely left pretty ticked off lol. Well that was my grand plan to get a switch, I tried not to hype myself up but now I'm pretty disappointed. I could understand if another customer had beat me to it or if the person picked it up last minute but the fact that they said "nope an employee bought it" pretty much pissed me right off. Needless to say, I refuse to shop at that location anymore.
Woke up at 9 am got in my car and drove through the snow (nor easter) stood outside the store until open (15 mins or so, just in case) and was foiled by an employee of all things.
Amazon.es charged my card today for the order I made on Saturday. At the time, it said "back in stock on March 17." Now my order says delivery between March 15 and March 21, but no tracking or anything yet. Weird! I assumed it would take longer.
Yeah, I called my bank ahead of time and told them what was up and they said they would flag my account so the transaction would go through. Plus my order says "preparing for shipment" but I don't know how accurate that is at all.

.....If I did that at my store I would be fired on the spot...............Update went to bestbuy because they had an online pre order they wouldn't sell me Sunday or Saturday claiming it had to be held.

Should have done that.
It seems small whenever you look back, but when you're living it, the wait for a new console shipment is excruciating.
I'm pathetic, I know.
I'm glad I got in an order with Amazon.es but now I'm in this weird holding pattern point of no return where if I see something pop up like the Target listing a few minutes ago I can't buy it, haha. Feels bad.
Target neon switches was up for 20 minutes and that nowinstock website didn't even have target on their list
Seriously?
I've been following the comment thread on the nowinstock page, it's really active and people are being super helpful in sharing stuff. The Switch was actually in stock for a few minutes earlier at Jet.com and people shared it too.How did people find out about the Target listing? Did they actually have any for sale, or was it an error?
I gave into Scalpers because I am a weak person -_-
I paid $350, which including tax was pretty reasonable, I thought.
I got an email alert from zoolert, but the website still says they are out of stock
Also, apparently there's an eBay seller with a bunch of listings for $379 with free shipping to the continental US. Above retail + tax for sure, but not terrible if you just can't wait.
That's about how much I would have been prepared to pay if I hadn't preordered. Welcome aboard![]()
Amazon says it will have more Neon stock March 26th.
Package has been out for delivery for five hours now - 10 minutes before my confirmed delivery window begins:

UPS is now predicting errors in the future for packages that don't exist at any location. They're doing minority reports on their own upcoming failures.
Edit: I got confirmation that it's just a bug in their status system and the package is out for delivery in my confirmed window today; I assumed as much based on the weird circumstances, but it's still pretty funny
Still no pro controllers?
I don't regret paying the scalper price, Zelda is fucking incredible. I haven't felt this way about a game since I was a child, to be honest. That's worth the price of admission personally.
Where are you located? Check the Amazon Prime Now service if it's in your area. Pro Controllers have been available on Prime Now in Austin, TX since last week!
