People seem to be forgetting this console is not being marketed towards children. After one single advertisement video, more people know about the Switch than the Wii U, a console that has been out for years. Nintendo hit the nail on the head with the marketing for this thing. Whether or not it will hold the hype, we'll found out next week. But I'm excited, and many non-gamer type folk are as well.
Also, if Zelda launches with the system we can probably expect some sort of bundle which will be highly in demand.
Anyhow, on subject:
-Looks like Gamestop is supposedly taking pre-orders beginning the 13th based on various "leaks" from employees, dunno how credible that is.
- Here is the link to Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-wii-u/dp/B01LTHP2ZK I'll be refreshing that during the livestream in hopes it goes live then.
Couldn't find any actual item pages on Best Buy or Gamestop, just the generic "info" pages. Would appreciate those if any can find them.
