I'm living in México. So after all the taxes... we get a $300 USD getting sold at a "bargain" $500 USD. Not to mention those greedy mofo resellers that increase it's price even more.

So then, no Swtich for me anytime soon.

Can't you just somehow get one imported for cheaper?

I was going to get it today... I went to walmart, gamestop, and target and they were all sold out. Then I checked online for those stores, plus amazon, and still no dice.
This is like the nes mini all over again.

Ouch... Isn't there a way to buy it from the US or even Europe and get it shipped? Because even there the Switch isn't that expensive, and seriously even with the shipping costs you would save between 100$ and 170$

I don't know about Mexico but here in Pakistan there isn't and the only one stock here costs 600 USD it's quite a high investment for the switch.

I'd much rather spend money on last-generation hardware and software then buy a Switch early. So much second-hand software available for next to nothing. So many good games yet to be played. No need to make the rich richer. No need to be a beta tester for Generation 1 hardware & no need to spend too much on software.

I want one too... I have a friend on denmark and I was thinking to ask him to get me one and bring when he comes back... would be half of the price of one here lol but still a good amount that I'm not sure if I should use right now....

I'm somewhat of a non-discriminate gamer (i've owned/supported the big four, MS, Sony, Ninty and PC throughout) so I don't think I suffer from any console/handheld fanboy bias.

I won't be getting a switch until it's hacked for backup loading. Overall, it appears underwhelming and gimmicky.

I had a pre-order, however cancelled it after seeing the games planned for release over the next year. The only game I had any interest in was Fast RMX.

Plus i think by the time the Switch has a few good games out i'd imagine Nintendo will have released a second revision of the console, lets be honest we never had to wait that long for the GBA SP, DS Lite or 3DS XL. All massive improvements in their own right.

Until games come out.
Somewhat agree. The Nintendo Switch's "real" launch will be this upcoming Christmas 2017 when Mario Odyssey is released. Or so I hope. Fingers crossed the game doesn't get delayed.

This isn't the blogs. :P

You can get that on WiiU. It's titled FAST Racing NEO.

Of course. I pre ordered mine in January.

Walking into the store without is too much of a hassle.
