Switch up on Amazon.de - 329,99
- Thread starter Ladekabel
- Start date
I got the premium Wii U (350€at 311€ on Amazon.fr at launch, would be nice if the Switch can hit that price.
And I wonder why it's still not "sold out" here.
Soon.

Alright. Well, I honestly wish that at least some people get it honored, even if it can't be for everyone. It's at amazon that I get pissed for the differentiated treatment, but I told them what's what and I'm letting it go. I'm keeping my order and I can't wait to get it, regardless.
Yeah it dropped by another 90 cents, Amazon France and its price war is kinda amusing.It's actually dropping!
ahah yes and it's pretty great since I expect the fnac to follow, but why only the black version ? I guess the color one will follow later
So basically 300 for the console then. That was fast.
We had the same happening on 3DS and WiiU - 300 will be the standard street price really fast - Retailers are just being greedy at launch because they can get away with it for the most part.
294 at La Fnac (314- 20 rebate on any game).

I'm confused. The Neon on Amazon.fr showed 319 on the product page, but when I placed my order it shows 314.90, and now when I check the product page again sometimes it shows 319 and other times 314.90... confusing

But this makes it cheaper for me to import from France than the USA! That's a first. I hope the user manuals, etc will be multi-language.

I think it was just a matter of price in the process of being updated. Happens sometimes.
The zelda pack in is 359 now, if it goes down again I guess I'll have to buy

Do we know if Zelda from France will have English language?
I don't like the European cover art for Zelda. US one is nicer.
Is there a Zelda bundle with the Neon console? I've only seen the grey.

They've said the text/voice matches your console language so probably. I don't remember buying a french only nintendo game as I always set the language to english. They're usually multi5.
Edit: Yeah only grey bundle unfortunately

So I placed a preorder for the bundle... interesting breakdown of each item's price:

I heard from a smaller german retailer on a forum that his purchasing price is higher than 329, so aside from the big retailers like Amazon or Media-Saturn this doesn't seem to be the case.

VAT adjustment. You probably live in a country with 24% VAT instead of the French 20%.

Dude, -30 with the code SWITCH30.

Are there any caveats for ordering from them? Seems like I should switch from Amazon.fr to La Fnac
Well I think that matches, but the product price was definitely higher when I placed the preorder compared to what it is now. However my preorder price has stayed exactly the same (checked this from confirmation email). I guess my preorder price was already calculated with this 314,00.
About the same at Fnac.fr.
320 for the console and 65 for Zelda and 20 off on your fidelity card, so 365 too.
I'm starting to like those prices.

The biggest caveat is that you get these 30 back afterwards, so they can go towards another purchase.
Edit: the grey pack has dropped to 314 on Fnac.com. I expect the neon one to follow suit. Preorder price guarantee in action !
Zelda is also reduced when you pre-order a Nintendo Switch and Zelda at the same time (50 euros). So that's 365 euros for Zelda + The Switch with 30 euros credited.
If you put the game at 65 euros that's a 270 euros console.
THANK YOU man! I canceled and replaced my order. And Zelda was at 50 instead of 64.
So I got the bundle at 364 -30 offered on my fidelity card.
= Switch + Zelda at 334, amazing deal!

Damn, I placed my preorder for Zelda + a console a couple of days ago, using the code, I hope this applies. I'll ask their CS.

Does Fnac.com charge you when you place a preorder?
I have an Amazon FR pre order too, for the Grey joy-cons and Zelda bundle. 300 for the console and 60 for Zelda....I really cannot complain.
You should monitor your account for price drop.
I bought it at 364E but today at 360E it was not updated (because the pack does not appear as a single product), so I cancel the 364E and bought it back at 360E.
Nope, only on delivery.
It is 298E in the Zelda pack.

Fuck it, I preordered it. I still have time to cancel it or see if it drops even below.
It was the same for me, I ordered yesterday for 365 but I cancelled and ordered it again today for 360. I don't think the price will go much lower before the release date but I will watch Amazon.

There is a Zelda bundle at Fnac? I can't find it. And Zelda shows 65 to me.
You have to pre-order both at the same time and you'll see the rebate once in your cart.
On the console page, way below there are some packs. There's no link because they're just "Add to cart" links.

Can you use that 30 to pay for your Switch+Zelda order? Or does it go into your account and can only be used on a future order?

I'm a bit confused by Fnac. Do you get the discount immediately or is it added to your loyalty card?

Works if you place an order for a free trial of the fnac card.
Weird it was for me the first time, then I cancelled to order Switch and Zelda at the same time but the code didn't work the second time.
Shows 360 now. Still doesn't seem to ship to Finland at least.
