Right now, I'm leaning towards Walmart's guaranteed delivery by 9am on launch day
I know I said earlier that I was going to just roll the dice with Nintendo, but maybe I'll pop on Walmart.com when I get to my desk and see if anymore are available by then.

What's this magic?
It's a Prime benefit where you get 6% Amazon store credit when you choose a slower delivery date than "Today by 5-9pm" or next day. They usually offer it on our Prime Delivery Day which has been set by them for Tuesdays.
It's Amazon credit that stacks up over time. We use it when we can, and it's built up to almost $400 this time. I try to let it accumulate and then splurge on something a little extravagant.

Oof. I am not optimistic about our chances at midnight.

Has Nintendo revealed plans for a new Zelda or Mario game for the Switch 2? I was excited for this, but then as I've read, it looks like the only game I would care about at release is Mario Kart and maybe Donkey Kong. It looks like BOTW and TOTK are just cleaner versions of the old ones that I don't really have to pay for. That is nice, but I don't see myself going back to those games in depth.
So, am I missing anything else that is really big at launch that relate to Nintendo's main IP? Or anything planned in 2025?

MK World and DK Bananza are the two biggest first party title drops that everyone is talking about, but I believe that misses on the Pokemon Z-A and Metroid Prime 4, right?
No new mainline Mario or Zelda titles yet, but the Gamecube Nintendo Classics (formerly Nintendo Switch Online library) will be exclusive to the new console. That means Wind Waker, Soul Calibur and a whole host of other titles.
Wind Waker is a big one for me because I never finished it, despite having owned it a couple of different ways on the GCN & WiiU virtual console. May as well be a new release for me.
Plus, my G1 Switch's wifi is wonky AF, so I'm much more in the market for a new once since I never bit on the OLED upgrade.
I imagine they are just wanting to get through launch and then announce Mario/Zelda stuff (next Hyrule Warriors melee game, too) as we approach the holidays.
Anyone who thinks this console won't be the must-have for the holiday season is crazy.

That's a big one for me. Wind Waker is the only console Zelda that I have not played. Thanks for clearing up.

Yeah, same here. There were some hacked ports of WW that made it onto some modded Switch units that were demonstrated internationally (I'm sure it was China) that proved the Switch hardware was more than capable of running the GCN titles.
I never finished the Master Sword trials in BOTW, so I'm looking forward to the enhanced version there, too. I'm sure there are hundreds of Korok seeds in both BOTW/TOTK that I haven't uncovered, too.

Got my pre order through Target. Took a while with all the errors but it finally went through
Posted on 4/23/25 at 11:16 pm to goldennugget
I got Walmart. Got placed in a queue at 11:56 and ordered by 12:05
Posted on 4/24/25 at 12:39 am to Greace
I got a preorder at Best Buy as a backup incase Target doesn't come through
If I get both I'll sell the 2nd one to my cousin at cost instead of being a scalping loser

They were not hard to get at all. From what I remember it was much harder scoring a ps5.

Keep watching best buy. I was late to the party and they were sold out but the preorder button popped up again after a few minutes
Was able to snag the bundle right before I posted this

I just woke up, checked the Walmart app and got a preorder.
That seemed too easy.

I got hung up on Target's fool's gold for a bit, as they were they only ones who would at least let you add to cart, but kept getting errors.
Walmart's pages for both the console only and MKW bundle kept crashing.
Once Best Buy went live at the bottom of the hour, I got the You're In Line!? message but once it went thru, their account authentication/login verification screen was crushed by the traffic and wouldn't let me advance.
At 1am, I checked that @wario64 account again and they said folks were having success with Walmart again, so I tried again and was able to grab 2 of the MK bundles in separate transactions.
