Just preordered from Base, £30 feels a little steep but the game looks so good. I loved the demo and can't wait to play online.

The way I see it is I'll be putting in way more hours into this game than I would for most £40-50 software so the sheer amount of value should justify the price.

Everytime this thread gets a new post I rush in to see if it's because the game is available for download

It will go up right at noon EST.

 

[Cymbal Head]

Can anybody who picked up physical post some pics of the keychains for scale? I'm having a really hard time deciding whether to go physical or digital, and if the keychains are tiny, huge, and/or poorly made that will help me decide.

 

[Lkr]

I didn't get a call either. I put my preorder in yesterday afternoon after I dropped by and did some trades. I asked if they still had the editions with the keychains and the employee told me they haven't even gotten the game in yet. So I'm slightly concerned.

Didn't stop them from taking my money though.

Goddamn
I did a store inventory search and the other store by me lists it as in stock but the one I preordered from doesn't. I'm hoping there are other customers there when I make a scene and ask what the point of preordering is lol

 

[Busaiku]

I got really hyped for the game and got the Puyo Puyo Weiss Schwarz cards.
I learned that all the Puyo Puyo characters, at least, are in middle school.
Even Risukuma, which I found shocking. Thought they were high school/teachers.

 

[sir_bumble_bee]

Just got my game delivered, played a bit before heading out. I'm actually starting to get some pretty consistent perfect clears in Tetris now lol

 

[AaronMT86]

A little awkward – the box (at least for me) was padded with scrap paper. Many sheets of scrap paper inside the box, never before seen that.

Hand made power !

I like the sticker "FREE" (but 10 € more than the PS4) :/

 

[borghe]

ordered physical from amazon. really wanted the keychains and people claiming the speed of switching carts..

when is it ok to remove a cart from Switch? I only have two games (Binding of Isaac and now Puyo), so when is it safe for me to switch carts?

 

[Big Brett]

Ugh can't decide if this price is justified but I am seriously dying to play more on the Switch! How's the online?

Not sure what you mean.
You can just exit out of the game and take the game out.

So go to Home? or go to Home and press X to close the title?

 

[Charles Brandon]

Went with https://www.offgamers.com code came through pretty much instantly.

This worked for me, thanks.

UK people (and our hated enemies, the European gamers I suppose), do not tolerate this bullishit, buy from the US store.

You should always close a game before you remove it. Same as a disk. Doesn't work any differently from any other console.

Head's up: in options, HD Rumble is default off, game also defaults to Location (Japan)

I am so glad they brought this game to other markets so that more would experience it. While I didn't play much online with the Japanese copy (due to lag and not fully understanding what I was reading), I played the game offline well over 100 hours. To me, Tetris has always been about the high scores and local coop with friend. However, I played a ton of online with Tetris DS and am hoping this game brings that back for me. Not sure if my older hands can handle the new Tetris masters like when I was in my early 20's.

 

[Busaiku]

Augh, it's times like this I regret ordering from Amazon.
Could've had it 11 hours ago at Gamestop, but I'll probably have to wait another 8...

Oh it comes with either a Tetremino or Puyo keychain? I dunno why, I thought it'd have both.

It is both, it's tightly packaged

Looks like the Tetris one is under the Puyo one to me.

 

[IronRinn]

Amazon, as usual, shipped my Switch version in a bubble mailer. You can guess how that turned out.

 

[Big Brett]

Cute keychains but for convenience's sake and for another $10's sake, I'm going digital. When does it drop, noon?

Yep. Should be noon EST.

Definitely the perfect digital game since it's a great pick up and play game that I'll want to play here and there for as long as I have a Switch.

Exactly. Seems to be one of the best versions of both puzzle games too. The Tetris is so satisfying and snappy based on what I've seen in GB's quicklook and the demo itself. Seems pretty feature-rich too. Excited to dive in.

 

[Outtrigger888]

This will be my first retail game that I'm buying digitally. I love physical games but with the switch I'm starting to lean digital. Can't wait to go home and play 4 players with the wife and kids.

 

[Bio-Frost]

Anyway to play versus endless? Like no sending garbage over just competing for a high score till someone loses?

with Prime (or GCU) is comes out to $32..... heh.... and with Amazon card it was like $30.40. I mean I am 100% in on an all digital future, but the keychains for 40¢ was way too much to pass up.

Please don't tempt me, there's a lot of vacancy on my keys! Haha. Good pick up I'd say.

Gonna grab this from the US eshop, cheaper and earlier than in EU !
Glory to Region-Free.

Downloading now!

 

[Jugendstil]

Just got my copy in the mail from Best Buy. The game is fantastic, but honestly I bought it mostly to have an updated portable version of Tetris. I'm working from home today and I keep getting distracted by the urge to play just one more round...

 

[Pastry]

Going home on my lunch break to get the download started on my Switch, can't wait.

 

[Strider]

Interested to see how story mode is like

 

[Bate]

40 Euros digital ain't cheap. I would have bitten at 30 maybe.

 

[mrk8885]

Bought physical and digital.


Want digital for the convenience....
Want physical for the inevitable licensing disaster later.

 

[Friend of Sonic]

I tried buying online and got an error code stating to access the eShop on Switch. Can I not buy this without a Switch? Don't own a Switch but want to support Sega on this localization
