Thats fair enough, but Im sure several other people will use the shortages as an excuse if the Switch doesnt win.

If it doesnt ship enough then the fault is from nintendo. That said lets say if it doesnt win becuase ps4 beat it but both sold 400k+, then lawlight will still be wrong :p

Can you explain how I will be wrong?

Something very strange... MK8D is around 8$ dollar cheaper on Eshop(EU) then the physical version...
When I buy games on my PS4 the digital copy is always more expensive then the physical one.

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

And dont forget a non holiday launch. Just amazing sales that any1 would wish for. Too bad it was supply restraint. It could of done easily over 5mil.

Can't wait for Xenoblade Chronicles 2! And Mario Odyssey! And Smash for Switch!

Great to hear the Switch is doing well. Hopefully they can keep the momentum going. Do it with E3, Nintendo!

It rings true around my area. Still haven't been able to find one. I check 2-3x a week at Gamestop, Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Target and Toys R Us. I give up, I refuse to order one on Amazon for a ridiculous price. I may skip the console, so much time wasted trying to find one.

What about importing one? It is readily available through most of Europe.

I know I'm importing all my games from france from now on. They retail 10€+ cheaper than where I am on average and shipping is only 3€. It does mean I have to wait for ARMS to come out to get the most out of the shipping cost, but at least I get MK8D for the cheapest price possible. Importing has it's perks!
