Switch 2 Pre-Orders. Did you get one?

MK Bundles
 
I did have one pre-ordered but I cancelled it since I know I'll barely play it and it'll just collect dust whilst I'm playing through all of my other games. Also, prices for games are ridiculous and the majority of third party games I've already played.

Maybe I'll revisit purchasing one when that new Fromsoft game launches, I'll see.
 
I was having a ton of trouble at both target and Walmart (MKW bundle), but my friend was able to pre order 1 from each 20 minutes before me when I was stuck in the buy menu. I paid her one of them and then all of sudden Walmart let me buy, so now I have 2. One for me and one for my daughter. Took about an hour and was pretty miserable.

It was a shitshow overall.

Walmart.com says I got one, but I'm skeptical of it being cancelled. Best Buy was my 1st choice and that was downright broken. Even tried Target with no luck. Oddly it looks like they're currently available now at Walmart - either it's a fuck up or all the scalper-bots are done.
 
Got a regular base unit from Walmart about 20min after they went live, but I wouldn't doubt if it's canceled. Currently sitting outside GameStop waiting for them to open so I can get a MKW bundle. They have 40 MKW bundles and 19 base units. There's 5 of us here.😅
 
I feel like a dunce for trying till they straight up said sold out. Target, Walmart, and Best Buy. Two computers and a phone, multiple tabs open. I couldnt complete not one purchase. Now I have less than 3 hours of sleep and i have a long day of god damn work....
 
Got it Walmart, but not from the "you're in line" system, had to use a direct link from Wario64 to order.

The queue systems and Target never worked for me.
 
Got mine on Smiths Toys in reveal day so I'm pretty much sorted.

I went to Nintendo Museum today and got a couple gatchas. The results were ominous... I hope it's not a sign

Even with all the controversy about Game Key Cards, and raising prices....I'm still just hyped. New game consoles are still like Christmas for me. Nothing more exciting than getting your hands on new hardware, with a new library of games opening up to you.

Gonna be so hyped for June 5th now, so I'm gonna have to keep myself distracted until then.

I'm gonna keep my order at Best Buy, and I also preordered a Pro Controller, and Mario Kart World physical. Still gonna want to get Cyberpunk 2077, both Zelda games, maybe Ruin Factory because it looks kinda cool, and I've been wanting to get back into Street Fighter 6, and even with the Game Key Card version, it's a good deal for the DLC coming with it all.
 
After getting it from Walmart, Best Buy's line eventually asked me to log in nearly an hour later. After re-logging in it put me back in line...I thought it restarted from scratch, but it let me preorder one less than five minutes later. I guess the moral is, don't give up.

Target was just a complete dumpster fire.

One lesson: save a different CC (or even CC company) at each store to get ready. So the antics at the first store won't flag your CC and slow down the next one.
 
Waiting on more information on how well the game performs in docked mode. In no hurry, either way.
 
For the first time even since preordering consoles, I didn't get one in the first wave.

I usually preorder from Amazon and they shit the bed with Nintendo.
 
Stayed at the Best Buy 'line' for 2:30 hours and got nothing...
Will wait for Amazon and try to buy it before the inevitable price rise.
