*** Nintendo Switch ***

[doodah]

I thought I heard Nintendo said they would resolve at the end of January, which they did albeit only for an incredible short amount of time. We're not that far off March and nada ....

Yeh, my girlfriend wants one for Animal Crossing. Looks like some places might get stock in early March. Unsure of whether to go for Game or direct from Nintendo. Has anyone pre-ordered a console direct from Nintendo? Are they good for getting it to you on release day? Otherwise, I'll be trying to get the console earlier and then just worry about the game arriving on release day.

Smyths have the AC variant available for pre-order

I ordered from Nintendo direct beginning of January and had delivery at the end.

I veto'd that, I don't do game branded consoles. I like the grey, but the neon wouldn't bother me. The most important thing is she can play on the 20th.

I've actually pre-orderd the AC edition and will have my grey release console going for trade in. However if you'd like I can pop it on the MM for you, making sure it arrives before the 20th?

Appreciate the offer, but I assume that's not an improved battery model? If it is, then I am interested.

Unfortunately not - it's the day one model.

No worries, sorry I'm after a newer one.

Doesn't really help given what you said above but I heard that any new pre-orders of the AC version are now not coming on release but several weeks later. No idea how that carries across to standard version of the console but certainly seems like they're very short on supply

Fun game but the story is a bit marmite, frame rate has improved since the initial beta though, lot of customisation options which is great as it is similar to Armored core level of customisation.

Thanks for the feedback.

Interesting, thanks for the heads up.

Damnit. Empire of Sin has been delayed until "Fall" 2020, according to Paradox. Needs the extra spit and polish apparently. Hope it pays off, as it's one I've been looking forward to.

Well it looks like Witcher 3 is getting cross save with PC! (Steam and GOG)

If it does I may pick it up for the switch so I can carry on my progress when away

Witcher 3 patch is out now, I've just updated mine, so many more graphical options and it looks even better now, very very impressed!

Picked up Unravel Two for £6 odd. First was beautiful and this is no different. Coop is lovely, some really nice play mechanics and I've only just started.
