Your experience is based on the forums, but this is a frontpage poll.

Also, at the time of your post, 46% was the share of votes that want a Switch 2 at launch. When you add the numbers from those who plan to get a Switch 2 later, the total of interested people goes above 70%.

I figure the front page polling works differently on the front page here than a thread since it allows for multiple polling it must be something to do with IP addresses not being static anymore and allows for multiple polling of the same person, it also doesn't seem to be account locked. Not really a great way to poll to be fair. 

Also not really a great anchor into the reality of it.

How many of the polling people in the latter options of not getting one and getting it later are actually gonna make amend with that ? 

They could easily back down on their word and go for it eventually or not of course.

2024 Wrapped

Current Most Wanted

axumblade on 27 April 2025

Most of the site are multi platform gamers with a slight Nintendo skew. When I say that I mean users are more likely to buy a Switch as a secondary console because there is a steady flow of games and they tend to offer different experiences than their competition. So bringing up the site having PlayStation or Xbox fans is a moot point.

Checked my local GameStop to see if they still had any, but they only had the bundle left.

Is it supposed to be a bad thing. Considering you were damning the price of MKW. You can get it at a preferential pricing with the bundle now

I know, but I wanted to buy the physical version separately.

Yeah, same. I'll be waiting on launch day to see if they have a leftover core edition and replace the bundle edition I currently have.

I want my physical games damnit

The digital marketplace isn't as good as the physical marketplace. Digital releases can be delisted any time. -_-

Didnt someone say that GameStop was forcing them to buy accessories with the pre-order?

In no rush to get one. Maybe pick one up when they release a newer model years from now.

Feel the same. No rush. Hoping for better battery in the future and then I might pick one up. Very content with my current PS5 + Switch one for my gaming needs at the moment.
