i believe the pre-order quantities is very small only, in order to create the "sold-out" hype.

no need to speculate whether pre-order quantities is very small only or not. they outright flatly tell the 1st shipment is 2m worldwide since last year, with extra 1m might be able to produced in order to fulfil march allocations. for april onwards, it's other case as they haven't really said much for next fiscal year. obviously not all 2m in 1st shipment is solely for pre-order, as there'll as well allocation for day 1 walk-in purchase but I don't really see it is the case where day 1 allocation >> pre-order allocation, at least for major retailers

3rd party games are not those games which created by nintendo. example final fantasy(square enix), gundams(bandai namco), uncharted(naughty dog)

uncharted is sony 1st party game. dunno why some ppl didn't realize sony bought naughty dogs for years already

QUOTE(lyc1982 @ Feb 7 2017, 03:33 PM)
i see...
so for example if GTA5 (Rockstar Games) comes to nintendo also considered 3rd party

yes

Just consoles, not games or accessories...

oh ok.
then assuming usd-myr exchange rate is 4.5
[(300*1.1)+110]*1.06*4.5=~RM2100
I guess that import duty for consoles threw many ppl off since not many people (including me) know that. taking consideration of their own profit, price not really surprising now. but there's a flaw with this logic as obviously gh doesn't take the stock @ retail price from maxshit, so yeah this current situation is still scummy enough
not to mention extra RM100 for neon ones doh.gif

btw do we have pricing from Singapore yet?

The extra RM100 is very shady of GH. Let's see if other shop does it too, but for now, this absolutely makes me avoid GH at all cost.
Funny how import duty and all other stuff comes into play exclusively for Switch. Past console Wii U, 3DS, PS4 all priced so fairly.
Again, very sure the RM100 extra is just GH's doing.
I prepared RM2k for worst case, just in case suddenly MYR goes down again because I plan to get one regardless of bundles or not, jokes on me.
400usd PS4 Pro only cost RM1.8k but Switch bundle cost RM2.5k...
Really considering on pulling my pre-order, i just felt stupid if I seriously cave in.
*
ikr. that's why that 10% import duty comment by someone in that reddit post throw me off a bit. i guess it's taken into consideration for new imported console, not well established ones lol. pretty sure pre-price cut 3ds back then was 1k+ when the currency exchange during that time is less than 3.5

splatoon 2 global test server 3 weeks after switch launch. anecdotal evidence but I've seen ppl said "thanks Nintendo for baiting me to get switch early" laugh.gif
QUOTE(nill @ Feb 12 2017, 12:58 PM)
Only one co-op game, Bomberman is available at launch right? It will be best to wait and see. Zelda will not be out of stock.

Btw, what's the price for extra controllers?

err... 1-2 switch? whistling.gif
in japan they got dqh1+2 on launch so there's that

Waiting for one hero Malaysia retailer to eat up the 1,2 Switch and introduce similar bundle for RM1.9k!!

If anybody is curious about the bundle

They will be listing for sgd600 on Feb 16

probably hard, but if there's really a local retailer that ends up doing that, they'll get my money for future stuff for sure #fightagainstmaxshitbullshitpractice

latest update for Malaysia price from Qisahn.
Apparently it will cost RM2042.90 only grey available.

If Impulse really 2099 for both colors, should I pay that extra RM50 just for neon? hmm..
*
if impulse @ 2099, just grab from there, unless qisahn's shipping cost isn't that much?

edit: for co-op games, I do wish snipperclips ends up being launch game. hopefully the current generic march 2017 doesn't mean near april lol

I'm planning on going full digital because Switch is a portable and I don't plan to play 1-2 Switch myself... Having any games force bundled isn't saving me any money.Quoted from gamefaqs regarding DQH2:
No local multiplayer for PS4. Only online multiplayer.
Not sure about Switch version.

Launch date co-op games: 1-2 Switch, Super Bomberman R
*
dqh1+2 will have local co-op mode (shown during switch public event), but not couch co-op like 1-2 switch & bomberman

Does Japan unit has English language as an option? So far haven't found any info on that.

QUOTE(andrewcha @ Feb 12 2017, 09:10 PM)
If you want me to guess then I might say no. If every console has language convert then whats the point of making it ntsc/pal? Everyone just flock to Japan and import one better since they're selling the cheapest across the region. Maybe they gonna lock like psv. Who knows.
*
there'll be Multilanguage in os. effectively all switch produced are the same for all region. while it's not really confirmed yet, the hints too obvious
- both fcc & ce mark/logo/name on the back of device. fcc is us certification, ce is European. region locked device don't have both at the same time most of the time
- aonuma said you can change botw language by changing system language (in reference by dual audio question)....

QUOTE(standi @ Feb 13 2017, 02:03 AM)
will there be a virtual backward compatibility of WiiU games ? I didn't play WiiU games and I would be interested to have the switch with which i could play all WiiU and switch's games in TV and with the portability which it offer
*
no. there's a reason why they're porting some wii u games like mk8

i'm not sure why ppl still comparing game price between a dedicated console that has no official presence in a region with a distribution service that implemented regional pricing just to prove a moot point. but then again it's 2017 and list warz are still exist, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

edit: btw, did gh/qisahn/impulse or any retailers around this region actually say when they're going to get their stock from maxshit? as in delivery/pickup will be on global release date or there'll be few days delay?

did you guys register nintendo account? which country i should choose to register now?
*
you can change Nintendo account country anytime as you like, but need to be linked with the same country as nnid when you're using it. as eshop right now (3ds & wii u) primarily use nnid, suggested would be either us or Canada (before this it's prepaid code vs credit/debit card but recent 'change' allows non-us card to be used for us eshop, us might be the ultimate choice now)
if you don't have nnid atm, you'll have to wait until you got switch as the registration can be only done on the console

QUOTE(paikius @ Feb 13 2017, 05:05 PM)
