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?

Impulse mentioned they take stock from Maxshaft. Delivery will delay to 2nd week of March.

U know la, delay due to local kastam issue might be happened.
Its nothing new here...

Impulse mentioned they take stock from Maxshaft. Delivery will delay to 2nd week of March.

just now when called them in johor, they are saying will get it 3rd, march, not sure its true or not

One more thing, impulse need to charge runner fees (200rm) for sending switch to maxshit's office for repair.
Looks like changing the battery going to cost an arm. Ouch

This part is like hoping for a miracle. If not mistaken, I didn't see S. Enix discount their eshop games til today.

SE games are in discount on jp eshop right now.

That's new. Normally they prefer giving discounts on physical copies in their webstores.

After looking at the price of the local switch.... i was wondering since i will be at Japan at March, if i purchase a Japanese Switch will they be any limitation? Such as the language display is only Japanese and unable to switch to English since this is a region free console.

they're having ff 30th anniversary discount on all digital platforms atm but i'm unsure if that's for jp side only or on all region

It's not irrelevant. It is relevant. People will buy games on platforms they own. People buy games on platform they feel comfortable to play with. People have all sorts of reasons to own a certain gaming system. Not everyone will buy every gaming system.

Like myself, I own a pc and I know many FF games are available on Steam, Danganronpa etc.. But I prefer to play them on my PS/PSV. Why? Cos i prefer it that way. The price? I don't care which platform has it cheaper. I wanna game on a system that I like most, most comfortable with. It's my money, not anyone else's money, not yours.

If someone like you who is a smart person and has a lot of money to spend on owning multiple platforms, then of course you can choose which games to play with which system based on their price.  Is that so hard to digest?

Nintendo has many IPs which makes owning a Switch is a must for gamers, or you can say, Nintendo fans whatever. Why are you concentrating only on Indie games to make Switch looks like an inferior system? And is hasn't been released yet, LOL! Fine, you have decided not to buy Switch. We already get it. Move on.

Good deal. Bump.

So... What MicroSD cards are you guys looking to use with the Switch? I'm trying to get a 128GB card - found Lexar to be selling around RM260.

i had prepared one 64gb, hopes that enough to use

We should probably stop this argument and continue on the actual topic switch, but before that, I like to point out something.

I like people who is like, "I used to be nintendo fan boy, so my complaints are valid and important!" "I own EVERY SINGLE CONSOLE OK, you better hear me out".
Yea, you are not the only person in the world that owns all the consoles
I play on PC, PS4 (main platform), Vita, 3DS, Wii U, PSVR, upcoming Switch for this current gen, don't want to mention previous gen which I also own (except for xbox).
We are in Nintendo subforum, discussing about Switch, if you want to talk about how glorious the PC or PS4 is, go there, it's not like Nintendo burned down your house or something, hate it, let it go.

I do admit i forgot i am in the Nintendo forum...LOL.

But it's amusing to see all the kiddy butthurts, if anything.
