I signed up for the pre-order direct through Nintendo, the invite only one. Got an email acknowledging but just curious if anyone has done the invite only route and got one?

    Signed up for the pre-order too but still haven’t gotten the offer to buy yet. Won’t bother now if it comes. They were sitting on the shelf at Walmart easy to grab for a couple days. Gonna hold off now until after Donkey Kong releases in July.

    We picked one up on release day, there were plenty available on the shelf at a few stores. My son has been saving since it was announced (birthday money, chores, whatever he could do!) and he was counting down the days.
    We went 50/50 with him, with the agreement that if he wanted any extra accessories like the camera, he’d pay for it himself.

    Yeah, the label gamer isn’t something that fits me. I like playing but it doesn’t consume my life like it does for other men. When I sold my 8 bit Nintendo in a garage sale back in 1990 for hockey gear, I didn’t buy another system until 2008. Sold that in 2013 when my first daughter was born, was given a Switch for my 40th by my late sister. I’m guessing your disdain is about the people with unhealthy habits, not towards the systems themselves and how much fun they can be @Wobbie

    I was really hoping for a game at launch wear I play an elf in green tights that is guided by a fairy to save a princess.  This Mario Kart is aimed more at kids ...

    At least one person has recommended I go get a Switch 2, but I dunno.. I can't say its something that I just have to have now that I am a bit over for decades old & I can see for myself that I can do other things & be sufficiently entertained.

    I think the recommendation came because I was hanging out in a retro gaming nostagia type 🎮 group, & I have some awareness of the Mario Kart game that is available for Android OS.

    Picked one up last week, decided not to wait until December for my preorder. Super stoked to see the upgrades Zelda’s!

    I just got my official invite from Nintendo.  I was waiting to see if an upgraded Steam Deck would come out later this year.  Fate has intertwined.  

    At least the Nintendo system seems to be working if you put an invite request in though.  I'm glad I spent zero time trying to track one of these down.

    I ended up getting a steam deck instead.
