Can only preorder the Wii U version, but the Switch logo is present as well

Looks to be that the Wii U version isn't digital only?

Well, at this rate it'll be hard for them to cancel the Wii U version now

Are people not happy now? This means you can preorder a physical copy afterall. It's not like the NES mini afterall .

Saddened that the NS version isn't available for pre-order as well.

Question: is it normal to open the web already for pre-orders considering the game is rumored to come in around 7 months?

Normal is hard to say but it isn't uncommon.  Your more dignified companies start preorders whenever they have shown a sizable chunk of the game, which Nintendo has.  Those with little to no dignity (*cough* Ubisoft *cough*) will open preorders even earlier.  However, this would speak to the possibility of an earlier release than people are thinking.

Is it me or does the box art look...really bad?

It seems Switch buyers can't catch a break. Nintendo is giving too much love to the Wii U. No preorders for Zelda Switch, various games that Wii U owners got to play years earlier. Appalling.

Are you buying this for WiiU? Do you really think Zelda's delay is solely due to NS?

I wasn't mad TP was pushed back for Wii and I'm not mad BotW waited for NS. WiiU support died long before NS was know as NX.

To be clear, I really like the WiiU, but NS looks to be better in every way. Even if BotW launched this holiday, I wouldn't have bought it knowing an NS version was going to launch.

Yeah, it's not looking hot.It's look slapped together.

Does Nintendo ever use mock-ups for website like this...? It would say no, but the art seems rough.

Huh, what? I just said that we get the short end of the stick. We are both Switch buyers, right?

Yes but I read rol-level sarcasm in your response. :)



See the Wii U version is fine
