Anything I absolutely can't wait for I'll buy at launch. What I can wait for (or don't immediately have time for) I'll get on a sale.

On sale most likely. I don't see any reason to ever get any games at launch anymore.

Since Cuphead is only $19.99 regularly priced I might actually buy that at full price before the year is over although there is probably a good chance that it will be on sale around November.

For only $20 I just said fuck it and pre-ordered it. I'm sure I'll get my $20 worth.

Nintendo games don't get price cuts or sales easily.. but, I won't be getting any games at launch since I don't have a Switch yet :p

I did preorder Pokemon though, if that counts as holiday?

I will be pretty loaded this holiday with Elex, South Park, ACO and SMO releasing so close to each other. So some of them any other possible contenders will be bought later.

At least I know SMO will never be on sale, so it doesn't matter when I buy it.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
