Nintendo Switch 2

I was able to snag some games and a controller from Best Buy but no luck with the system. Hopefully I can grab one when they reopen the inventory. I don't like the idea of buying an overpriced one from a scalper.

Did you try your local GameStop?

Yeah, by the time I found out a few of them still had preorders available at the store it was too late. I went on the Nintendo waiting list also so hopefully they send me an email for one.

Sad to see the “code in a box” games still exist. Everyone thought the Game Key Cards were supposed to fully replace this with a sort of cool in between that could still be traded but I guess not.

If this is true it would mean that the Switch 1 version was cancelled as two versions for both consoles were mentioned in the big GameFreak data leak.

If anyone is still trying to get a pre-order I would suggest following Jake Randall on YouTube and Twitter. That is how I got 2 on initial pre-order day and that was also how I got my PS5 a few years ago. Great information on how to get a pre-order.

Good because this is pretty scummy.

One thing you might have encountered if you pre-ordered your Nintendo Switch 2 at a brick and mortar store like GameStop is having to purchase other things with your pre-order. It is an age-old tactic…

Bringing the hammer down.

I mean, that was pretty insane. I don’t know what they expected… it was cathartic in the moment because the silence from Nintendo was starting to get insane, but did they think it through at all?

Likely not. To make it worse they didn’t even show off anything that wasn’t already out there so they did this basically for nothing except showing off a physical mockup for internet cookies.

I’m going to assume Target won’t be alone here in having a good amount of stock available in store on day 1.
