Was thinking of getting a Wii U when the prices dropped, but this hasn't really happened.
Am trading in my Xbox One to get a Switch, and will get MK8 from here to go with it :smiley:
Thanks OP

The reason Reggie said that is because if he'd have said "We're aware of people's concerns but we don't give a @*%$" it probably wouldn't have gone down too well. 'Listening to people's concerns' doesn't mean jack.

If you don't have prime and would rather have some club card points, Tesco Direct are also doing it for £42

Loads of people hating on the console
My personal belief is 80% of those people slating it will change their minds after playing on it.
I loved every second on it in Birmingham (other than holding hot sweaty control pads)

I got this bundled with my Wii U, is there anyone buying the switch and this that did not purchase a Wii U or MK8? (just curious)

I got this bundled with my Wii U and bought the season pass so do I really want to buy the same game again (but with a better battle mode) really in 2 minds about it.

Yes, been holding out on buying a Wii U for about 12 months waiting for this. Still think I may have made a big mistake but the handheld element of the Switch looks impressive. Other than that, getting a Wii U with around 10 games for the same price looks much more sensible, and the launch line up on Switch is shocking. Hope I don't regret it...

sorry to burst your bubble fella but amazon reduced this a few days ago. I myself bought the game digitally on wiiu with all the dlc, so I'm waiting to see what they plan on doing for digital customers , reggie said they where listening to peoples concerns so we shall see. I'm not rushing to purchases this since I've already played it and a battle mode for me is not a big deal as there is plenty of content without it . I can wait for an upgrade offer or a sale.

I think you will be disappointed if you think Nintendo will give you any kind of discount unless its for a virtual console release you have purchased on a previous console.

I believe that was in relation to VC purchases. (Maybe wrong).
Also, I don't think Nintendo "need" to offer anyone a discount on MK8. Sony and MS certainly haven't in regards to their PS3/360 titles being released so not sure why people think Nintendo should be giving a discount on MK 8 on Switch.

Considering this is the very best game ever made, people should have no qualms about dropping 40 smackers on this, whether they own the Wii U version of it too or not (I personally have it on disc and eshop on Wii U already).
When I get the Switch cart of this I suspect I'll take it everywhere I go for the rest of my life (or my Switch's, whichever ends sooner).

Opening post
Please do not comment on whether Nintendo Switch will succeed or fail and save that for another discussion.
Personally I think having a modern MK game on the go with 2-controllers would be a fun experience and this is one of the cheapest deals so far.
