Tell them to come to Brazil. They won´t have problems finding a Switch.... they will only have problems paying for it.

It's always fun when that happens

The universe phenomenon is always a joy to witness. I've noticed for years now that when you go to prove something, or show somebody something, it doesn't work. I initially was of the belief that it was just me but started realizing it's presence with others too. It can be super annoying at times but I mostly just observe and laugh at it now

We're fortunate to get more units in the states. I'm seeing the amount of Switch's in each batch increase, but people just keep on buying them.

Good thing we don't live in japan

Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
