Oooh, Costco are definitely getting accessories? 

Yup, and its cheaper too like the Switch 2 Pro controller

It's always a weird reminder to hear about Costco selling consoles, games and accessories on the side ...

Admittedly a cheaper Switch 2 Pro Controller sounds enticing. But I'm too late here since I already pre-ordered mine at my local EB Games

Thankfully there's one walking distance from where I live so I'll be going there (which also is near by the same GameStop I pre-ordered my Switch 2 lol)

Yep. Walked in Gamestop -> in and out in less than 10 mins (Mario Kart bundle)

I'll get it but not at launch.

Call me old fashioned, but I never buy the first batch of a new product. I'll wait a little to have possible gremlins sorted. Not claiming it will have those, but that's just how I roll with all kind of tech purchases.

After finishing up FFVII Remake Intergrade last night, I can safely say I wouldnt mind playing this again on Switch 2

Gonna wait for a steep sale on it first especially since I have my "Dont play the same game even on another platform in the same year" rule.

Oh convenient ! Mine is also at a walking distance so I don't mind the 15 min. walking trek to it.

Though, convenient as it is. It seems perfect for you to go pick up some physical goods from it 😋

That's fair. You never know if there's gonna be issues with the first batch or not. Hopefully, it'll be just fine.

I changed my mind.

After this whole 20.0 update with the Virtual Game Cards bullshit. I don’t feel I can trust Nintendo anymore. I’ve spent so much time trying to fix things just so I can play my fucking game that I just paid full price for.

I will not likely be purchasing Nintendo Switch 2.

It will be the first time since the NES I haven’t owned a current Nintendo system. But since I updated, the Switch experience has been an annoying nightmare that will be very costly to fix.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

They seem to be a lot easier to get this week in the UK, must have had a huge shipment. Got mine from John Lewis a couple days ago, Very has some and Nintendo's own site has them too. I have to say I'm looking forward to playing Mario Kart World, I just hope transferring everything over to the 2 will be easy and quick.
