First hour was scary, after that everything worked for me. Got three of them preordered from different sites, will keep BB midnight store pickup if all remains well. I doubt this will sell out.
I haven't pre-ordered so far. I doubt that the console will be that hard to come by since Nintendo has been producing them for a very long time already. There's also not that much I'm looking forward to to be honnest. I guess I'm most stoked for DK Bananza, which is launch window, but not day one and the new FAST racing game, but only if it turns out to be a completely new entry.
non-boomers go to internet to find out what "stay tuned" means. Nice, Aspro.
Wow, we're old.
I was watching a video from the 70s with my mother and I was like, no Internet? No cellphones, crappy tvs.
Now younger people think this way about the 90s.
Occasionally my nephew will ask when was this made, about a movie or game and I'll say, not too long ago, 15 years or something.
And they'll look at me like 15 years is the prehistoric times.

Now I'm imagine you gamesharing with yourself with 3 switches.
Maybe putting all three tablet side by side to make it like a multi monitor setup.
So, apparently 128kb did this video and GVG about the HD rumble 2 in the Switch 2.
They said the same company who did HD rumble in switch 1 also did the haptic in the ps5 controller. Now they're doing the HD rumble 2.
They say it works really well. They said in a minigame you can feel the controller as you pull it back like a wind up car.
They say you can feel the tires in your hand in drag and drive.
They were also delighted when playing mp4, to have a mouse with haptic feedback. In other games you got physical feedback in mouse mouse when you rotate the joycon.
It's sensitive enough that purely through feedback you can feel the upper limit of the pull back of this wind up car.
They said not many people bought 1,2 switch, so the switch 2 event was their 1,2 switch moment for switch 2.
But they say it's much more pronounced and used in a wide variety of games already. Pretty cool.
I'm reading so many stories about preorders gone wrong, that sites are not working and it's a bunch of chaos. Yet I snagged mine very quickly. The reports make me think I did something wrong and I keep checking my confirmation email to make sure I really have an actual preorder.
Well congratulations on snagging one. And enjoy the uneasiness that you're going to experience the rest of the day as a result of your smooth transaction.
I camped out for a console only once. I waited a couple hours to get my Wii pre-ordered at GameStop. I got there at 7:30am and was 14th in line.
The store was nice enough to hand out vouchers at 9am, so we didn't have to wait until it opened at 10am to pay. It was especially nice for me since the kids in line asked me what games I was going to get my kids. They looked at me oddly when I told them it was for me and I didn't have kids. One of them said it was cool that I was still playing games at my age. That's the first time I actually felt old
My local Best buy had a lot of Wii U consoles available on launch day; no pre-order required. I only saw one guy buying one. That's when I figured Nintendo was in trouble. I almost bought one, but held off another year for more games to come out.
Well, that was quick. Mods have already been released to fix the colorgrading issues for Oblivion Remastered. Looks much more like the original. PC gaming rocks. 👍
Preordered!

My Walmart preorder was super smooth. The only problem I had was on my end because I had to enter a new card number since my previous one expired.
I really wanted to preorder through GameStop snd use some credit towards the cost, but as of right now, their preorder page is not active.

Didn’t do the pre-order thing for the Switch 2. Sleep was more important.
Two Nintendo youtubers are live streaming as they camp out for preorders.

Just, why?
Crazy fools.

There's no way I'd do that today, though.
Could use more bloom, though.View on YouTube
I never did the camping thing. The Wii and GameCube are the only consoles I picked up on day one.
