1 week to go... who's waiting on an update from Argos?
Very and Argos preorder here.1 week to go... who's waiting on an update from Argos?
Glad you got one.I got one with Amazon, but it says wont be delivered till the 7th boo.
This is pretty common. I don't know what the situation is with the Switch 2 but you can usually ignore this, you'll probably get it on the 5th.I got one with Amazon, but it says wont be delivered till the 7th boo.
Mine said that before I cancelled it as I secured a pre order from Nintendo. I think Amazon have that to cover their asses. I'd expect it to still be delivered day 1.Ordered mine from amazon on the 4th April when I got the invite and it said the 7th June since. I hope it's just an estimate and it will be here by the 5th, but I'm not complaining as I consider myself lucky to have one coming close to release
Ah right, hopefully so! Thanks for the input.This is pretty common. I don't know what the situation is with the Switch 2 but you can usually ignore this, you'll probably get it on the 5th.
No, idiots think that a Nintendo console generation is automatically successful based on its launch. Of course it was going to sell out — there are more than enough scalpers and Nintendo diehards to guarantee that. Nobody knows how it will perform long term.And idiots on here think it'll flop
Mario Kart 8 is one of the best selling games of all time and the Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle is going to sell fucking millions.
On dispatch.Ah right, hopefully so! Thanks for the input.
On a side note do we know when Amazon usually takes payment?
It would take a monumental fuck up or shift in the market for this not to do 100m+No, idiots think that a Nintendo console generation is automatically successful based on its launch.

Yeah, 100M console sales is probably a given. I'm not sure though that the families that were buying 2-3 Switch 1 units per household are going to see the need to do the same at $450 a pop.It would take a monumental fuck up or shift in the market for this not to do 100m+
$450 really isn't all that much. The software is the stickler. I suspect the $80 tag will only be reserved for the super premium titles.Yeah, 100M console sales is probably a given.

$450 isn't much for enthusiasts, it's a ton for a family in a down economy that would have to buy a couple of them to keep kids happy. The price increases for games and accessories make it deal breaker.$450 really isn't all that much. The software is the stickler.

Agreed somewhat, but this still goes over 100 million like I was saying.$450 isn't much for enthusiasts, it's a ton for a family in a down economy that would have to buy a couple of them to keep kids happy. The price increases for games and accessories make it deal breaker.
Lots of variables that Nintendo didn't have to account for last gen. They also won't have a Covid-like boon to make the device more lucrative for folks stuck at home.
Indeed, $600+ if you want a game or two and a pro controller...$450 isn't much for enthusiasts, it's a ton for a family in a down economy that would have to buy a couple of them to keep kids happy. The price increases for games and accessories make it deal breaker.

I have my preoder with Argos too, however the payment was taken back in April when I preordered. I don't think we'll get a dispatch email until it actually dispatches, which will most likely be Wednesday if its DPD.I just checked my Argos order and they took the payment on friday which I guess is a good sign, anyone had any update or dispatch email etc yet? I guess we should expect it any time now..
hopefuly it is DPD, cause the other courier they use is absolutely tragic. They lost my PS5 Pro and it took almost 2 weeks to get the money back so I could buy another elsewhere.I have my preoder with Argos too, however the payment was taken back in April when I preordered.

I just got the same email, although for some reason it's blank and had to click view with images to go to the website.Just got an email from Argos confirming that my Switch 2 is being prepared for delivery and I should get it on launch day. No details on what carrier it'll be but I'm assuming it'll be DPD. I hope it is.

Argos delivery will be via DPD.
And who has said, on here, that the switch 2 would "flop"? I've got to see thisAnd idiots on here think it'll flop

A lot of people actually, most citing the price. I don't agree, but it's there when you want to read it. I actually remember a lot of people here also predicting the og switch to flop, because "underpowered".And who has said, on here, that the switch 2 would "flop"? I've got to see this![]()
Mine is still the 7th also. When the regular wa in stock over the last few days, the delivery was showing as the 6th, then 7th, 6th, 7th. I guess they already got stock and I'm hopeful the dispatch on the 4th for delivery on the 5th.Anyone had any updates from Amazon yet? Mine still says 7th.
A few people have asked Argos customer service.ValiantInstance How do you know it will be DPD? I've looked everywhere and cant get any concrete info on this
How so? Internet told me there was no hype for Switch 2
lunch sales leeks WORLDWIDE oohoohoohoo

His definition of the internet is one poster on gaf, gamer79. Most sane people expect it to sell out at launch with shortages. It would be interesting to see if we get the same highs as Switch 1.Nobody told you that.
