Because they are not one of the official retailer and still have no idea where they will secure stock from, therefore collecting deposit for promising nothing.

Yo!! Yea I'm getting mine from Impulse, preordered since they opened it. Getting Neon bundle.

actually is not 300 usd , its around 450 usd because it add 2more games as a compulsory bundle, not a standalone console.
blame maxsoft, the SEA distributor for Nintendo

agreed, maybe we should have a petition to make official nintendo SEA happen
not 75 usd exactly, Shipping costs + Local Distributor Markup + GST + Local Reseller Markup. to the console and the games.

Whoever is handling Maxsoft marketing department/price deciding department, I'm amazed by their confident.
What they are doing is EXACTLY OPPOSITE of what you learn from business marketing strategies....
Like the whole point of Nintendo setting the Switch price for $299 and games cost $59.99, giving you the illusion of not that expensive. Also recently every companies are selling stuff in standalone model during launch to avoid the high cost, convincing more people to buy their product.

And then there is Maxsoft. Markup Switch price, fine, GST import duty or whatever. They cramp in 2 games with no options, adding the extra RM500 in their advertisement, bumping the price to RM2k. I seriously don't see Switch will be as success as 3DS in Malaysia. Was hoping since Wii U community is so small, Switch will be the chosen one to bring 3DS and Wii U players together. Looks like Switch will be worse with the RM2k starter pack.

You can always get the retro first what? Gamecube Wii WiiU. Apa susah?
