Gaming Need help with release date timing

[Eastonator12]

I'm either dumb or understanding different timezones is difficult. So, in Japan, the Digital Download code for Mario Odyssey releases on Thursday, the 26th, at 12am, which, with the help of google, means I'll have the game on my switch(or the download will be available), tomorrow(Wednesday), at 10 AM. I live in the Central TimeZone of the US. anyone smarter than me, pls help me understand this.

thanks

I don't see what you need to understand that you yourself haven't explained already.

Dear god people whats happening... You are going bananas over a few hours difference of the release
Just wait for the game..have a cup of tea, some biscuits, play some Splatoon or some shit. It's not the end of the world.

Yeah, the whole game content was leaked already and there are spoilers all over the internet since a couple of days ago...
So it is not like you should be in a hurry to avoid spoilers or anything, too late for that.

Another dumb question. If I get the Japanese version, will the game icon and name on the home menu be Japanese?

It depends on the game, but almost sure it will have both icon and name in the menu in Japanese.
Also, it is possible the game will come with English language included even if you get it from the Japanese eShop, but unless someone confirmed it already don't be counting that as a given.

can confirm its multilanguage, even from the japanese eshop. the game icon should be based on your switchs region/language setting

Hehehe. I still didn't get spoiled. Good thing I didn't watch Odyssey vids.

I looked on the Jap shop and it has english as a supported language, thanks for the response

another dumb question, if I have a switch is it possible to "screen share" it to my desktop so I can play on my laptop? I forgot my headphones and only have USB ones

no, but you can use usb headphones with the switch dock or with a usb-c adapter

I've managed to only see one small spoiler. Other than that I'm operating on only what Nintendo has showed, and not even all of that.
