Thanks bought them all in the hope there's more than one game worth playing before Nintendo announce their next console.

NESKEYRING

Or

MARIONOTEBOOK

If anybody is using Nintendo add this to the Discount code box. You can get either a NES keyring or Mario Notebook for free. RRP £4.99

its RRP so not really a deal but a good heads up for those who want one, shame nintendo are doing there usual thing, with releasing limited stock so it looks like its selling a lot better than it is, before anyone starts i didn't say it is selling poorly, just that this is what and other companys to a lesser extent like to do too increase recognition etc. so not voting either way.

i'm happy to wait till more games out, a decent bundle and the games are priced cheaper, its strange with the wii u games being a little cheaper at times than ps4 or Xbox one games, Nintendo fans used to moan about the price of ps4/xbox games, but now games are more expensive on the switch its OK now, have to love the double standard.

that deal was for £299 with a 10% discount code that explicitly said not for 'electronics' and as Zavvi have a habit of cancelling orders members voted accordingly.

once the games start coming out these are gonna be sought after i reckon

Yeah the fact that the storage is on a separate daughterboard likely means 64 / 128GB version on the way in the future.
Price drop not so sure about though, if demand stays high I wouldn't hold your breath for significant drops this year. Bundles could offer better value though yeah. Surely 1-2 Switch will eventually become a pack-in game like it should've been from the start.

Ben Heck did a tear down of the Switch and found that it's very likely that because of the modular way it's built, a newer updated version will likely be coming in the future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpSPyW5v8r0&t=5s

Definitely gonna wait till Christmas for a bundle deal and maybe a price drop!

Exactly 6.66% is nothing to scoff at with interest rates as low as they are. You don't even need the initial 300 as you order on a credit card. Why you would want to part with your Switch is another question entirely though :smiley:.

With the greatest respect, the Wii U is old technology. Besides, the Switch is much more appealing due to being a home console/handheld console.

In my view anyway.

Hey OP both of these are out of stock now but Tesco online have just gotten stock of the Neon this morning for RRP plus clubcard points, want to post it, its all yours https://www.tesco.com/direct/nintendo-switch-console-neon-redneon-blue/364-1064.prd?skuId=364-1064

Cold RRP price

I would not buy from nintendo.I preordered the switch and despite being told it would be despatched a few days before release it was not shipped until 8.30 pm night before and console turned up late.I refused delivery and managed to get the last switch from Argos on day of release and still waiting on a refund from Nintendo.They have told me they have not received it back despute tracking saying otherwise.Have my credit card company doing a chargeback at the moment to get my money back.Never again.

​If you don't think £20 is a lot, you're on the wrong website.

My opinion is legend and like star dust...

Minus any traveling costs, it beats bank and ISA interest rates.

Will buy it this xmas £200 with mario kart and zelda from Argos

At the moment, every single game for it is available on the wii u or on another platform (running better). However people wouldn't care about that much.

2 posts from yourself with nothing to add, I also read 271+ right now. Warm feelings that someone managed to purchase a Nintendo console today.

wait a minute? Did you just acknowledge the lack of need for this entire 'deal' by posting a very useful stock informing website that does exactly what people seem to expect from this deal website..... and not only that but you did this literally minutes after chastising me for some kind of perceived negativity and finish with an edit claiming I was 'burned'? I just wanna be clear about this whole thing, y'know

Because Paul was kind enough to talk down this thread but did not share his eternal wisdom here you go Stockinformer.co.uk

Thanks for playing. Your negativity brings alot to the community! Although it does fly in the face of the heat this thread has received and the countless people who have now purchased a hard to source console which was the whole point. The day you become a mod and remove a thread I post is the day I care about your opinion.

I ordered 2 same as last time although it does say dispatched when i click the yodel tracking it still says "awaiting parcel from carrier" so thats confused me as the 2 before arrived the next day, if it gets cancelled then oh well "/

Re-read what I wrote, you are misunderstanding what I said about them being a Japanese company and taking it out of context.
Why are we talking exclusively about Playstation? You said Sony, you brought it up.
Also you didn't answer my question; was there or was there not a shortage of PS4's at launch?

You managed to simultaneously miss the point entirely and answer nothing with your replies, congrats I guess that's an achievement of sorts.

I was fortunate enough to find an Argos with one in stock. Had the device for three weeks now. The main issue I have is there are NO games. You are buying Zelda and maybe the racing game, but the others aren't very good.

The console is quite good, although the kick stand isn't the best.

Really good find to see it in stock. It is still hard to get hold of...

we are talking about gaming section(Playstation),so yeah they are doing extremely fine actually
you said the shortage problem is partly because Nintendo is a Japanese company,I reminded you that Nintendo isn't the only Japanese company so the Japanese argument is irrelevant that's all.

Not really if you get enough of them.

does this come with the nunchucks if it does why do people buy them​ separately?

​so i know for future ref could you name any if possible please. I don't know any, so find this kind of deal helpful at the moment.

Some people place bets on odds on bankers @ 1/14 and lose...

Neon version now OOS

I find spending any time in CEX effort.

WOW a whole £20 profit which you need to spend nearly £300 to get. sorry but anyone who sells it for just £20 profit has some serious problems.

CEX buying for the same price as RRP?
No decent profit to be made in buying these to sell on.

You can make £20 profit just by walking into CEX. Worth it considering it's no effort whatsoever.

You don't have to sell on eBay.

why not start another site called instockukdeals.com

Edit: I voted hot by accident. Those buttons are too close together!

Not if you're on a £1 or £5 max final fee offer.

i dont understand why people bother, after selling fees etc i can see people making £50 at most

The second wave hitting most stores now. If selling for profit, be quick.

no i did not all i'am saying is a lot of people on this site are defending the prices.

Did you miss all the hoo-hah about the prices of games on the Switch? It's a far cry from being 'its ok now'. In fact, the negative coverage about pricing is still ongoing so not sure what you're on about. It's one of the biggest and most widely reported complaints apart from the joy cons...

not in a rush for it still got loads of games to complete yet. plus the GF doesn't know i got it so at least its delaying the telling off

ordered one with the 20% off deal last week. however delivery estimated for 28th.... of April.

had a lovely e mail today

You’ll be pleased to hear that the below item you ordered on 21/03/2017 is right on track for its original delivery date of 28/04/2017.

yes... very pleased

I'm in the same boat. Really really want to play Zelda but will slog through Horizon Dawn for now. Trouble is I don't see any deals on Switch this year but am hoping for hardware revision on dock.

I managed to order 2 (separate orders as only 1 allowed at check out) both have been dispatched?? "/

still one month too early for me to get one....until Mario kart that is... :smile:

...when I probably will struggle to get one haha

and Sony are doing so well overall aren't they :stuck_out_tongue:

Are you saying there was no shortage of PS4's when they launched? I beg to differ.

And it was a generalisation regarding how they may approach certain aspects in business, such as risk

Nonsense about them being Japanese.
Sony is Japanese too,so why no such issue?

yes but thats only the stock that retailers have to sell, the statement makes it sound like its selling better than the wii or ps2 which it is not. don't get me wrong i want it to do well, but a big difference between what stock they are selling and total sales. lets hope it can have the sales of the wii coupled with a great lineup of games

It's the fastest selling Nintendo console ever, it's also the fastest selling console of all time in Europe.

I think they have done a remarkable job of filtering them through considering the demand. It's a 100x better situation than the Wii which was impossible to get hold of until 6 months after release.

I agree about the scalpers it does suck that there's even a market for it but attributing that as beneficial to Nintendo (ergo something they would do on purpose) is rather complicated.

Yes but to say that they do it on purpose is conjecture. Running a multi-billion pound company is more complicated than you may think. Plus they are Japanese, their customs are very different and that includes in business. It may be a decision to reduce risk on an unknown quantity.

yes but nintendo take it to another degree, that could produce more without having the effects you say, they do with a lot of stuff limited edition games and amiibo and at the end of the day the only people this benefits are scalpers.

the could easily find a middle ground like other company's without lining the scalpers pockets

About 45% of what it's worth :smirk:

How much do CEX pay for an opinion ?

For collectors its worth knowing that the Neon is far rarer than the grey version. The Neon is also the only way to get a left bright blue JoyCon and the right red Joycon. (they are sold with the colors reversed separately)

Luckily its not my time I've wasted its my employers :smirk: I am actually interested but keep dithering whether to buy one now just to play Zelda or waiting a bit till a few more games are out of they release some bundles.

Only worth 200. Cold

Plenty of people including myself use this site to find out about stock etc and the Nintendo Switch is fair game as there has been so little stock. Not bothered about "heat" just adding to "community". But fair comment about RRP. Shame about the wasted time writing your post when your not interested.

As i stated in the deal they honoured the last one and they honoured this one:

But i know i helped some people so all good in my books.

Lol I'll give this heat but i posted earlier a deal for the neon at £269.99 with free next day delivery from Zavvi (same company used as Nintendo store). That deal froze hell over...

This is a deals site, RRP is not a deal and there are many other widely known 'stock check' sites available that other members have access to.

been in stock since yesterday at RRP so not really a deal, so has the neon version. Nintendo directly from their website give 2 years warranty compared to 1 year from most other retailers.
