Everyone is jumping on the VR bandwagon, I hope Ninty isn't

VR is like 3D, just a temporary gimmick, and very soon the hype will past and you'll be left with a underused VR headset with minimal games to play on

I wish for NX? go back to it's traditional console root, and don't tie your digital games physically to a machine

game has no region lock, but not sure about the servers
probably will be the same like other consoles, ie: if you're using US account, then you'll be playing on US servers with mostly US players

cross server MP battles tends to end up in tears & frustrations, pings tends to be pretty high when playing with players on the other side of earth

Going to down under in June, was planning maybe grabbing one there
but upon seeing their price after conversion, aiks!
we are not the only one suffering from expensive switch
console + zelda + 1,2switch also similar price like here

but~! if I can claim their 10% GST tax return at airport, it's slightly cheaper, around RM2000

looks like we might have the similar issues of old
console language(s) is fixed to their region

let's hope that's not the case for those planning to get the Jap console

beware of this game shop, they will not honor the pre-order price if the price sudden increase by maxsoft
most of us already got burn by them during the nintendo classic mini pre-order

already in my blacklisted game shop, even if they're selling cheapest in M'sia, I still won't buy from them.

yup

not to mention they also involved in another console fiasco recently, the PS4Pro pre-order
till now, they are still unable to deliver even a single unit to those who pre-oredered, while other stores can get at least a few units

so, my advice? stay far far away from them

I think Nintendo should just stop produce the grey switch, almost everyone wanted the neon switch.
Just came back frm down under, neon set preorder were all sold out! Left the greys only, just like here

me? in fb?
haven't selling things online for ages, pretty sure it ain't me

http://www.11street.my/productdetail/ninte...er-pre-30765770

seems this is the cheapest bundle we can get now online
from TruGamers @ RM1999

will be cheaper after applying some 11st coupons

quite tempted to click purchase now

later today evening we all will get the news that the MY stock got held up at kastam la, no sirim la... bla bla bla...
shipment will be delayed for at least a week

happens before
won't be surprise if it happen again with NS

Seems from most of the reviews, the hardware still have some minor flaws, which I doubt can be fixed by software updates

gonna hold my horses and wait for the next revision, if there's any

no wireless headphone support is a major turn down for me
since I usually play a night when everyone's asleep

L-con issues sounds like a HW issue as well, the way i put my console on shelf won't have line of sight, so it won't be fixed easily

Lastly, most powerbanks are just not powerful enough to charge it

Breaking News!!!

Maxsoft SG office is closed & locked! No one in sight!! Their staffs were unable to enter their office since yesterday!
Neither of the bossess can be reach!
When asked about the Nintendo Switch stocks, the warehouse supervisor said there were no incoming stock for whatsoever in the last few weeks!

Oh no... seems like the bossess of Maxsoft decided to sapu the monies from Switch pre-order and cabut already!!

[WTB]
1,2 switch @ RM50

Will have chance to travel to HK next month, probably will grab one or two units over there, since it will be among the cheapest in Asia beside Jpn

joycon sync issues seems to be confirmed by this guy is more of a hardware design flaw, doubt any firmware update can fix it

but good news is it can be fixed with a simple mod, but will void your warranty tho

Maxsoft SG/MY warranty is only one year right?

Found out Ninty HK is giving 2 years warranty, with one to one swapping for faulty units at their HK HQ during this launch period

Probably will get a HK set since I'll be there next month, if anything wrong during the first few days while I was there, can just drop by their HQ for replacement.
HK official sets selling at HKD2340, that's around RM1300, and there's no forced bundle like Maxsoft

yup

1) yes
2) 2-pin Jap socket type, but Jap is using 110V by default, but the adapter could be 240-110 volt, check when you buy, if yes then no need local
3) if whole box intact brand new, sure kena tax. To avoid, unbox and keep the switch with you as hand carry, box throw away or just flatten it

No one getting rid of their unwanted 1,2,Switch yet?

I know we are supposed to ignore him

but I find this too funny to ignore
