Did you get in on one?
I made a second separate order on Amazon US in case something like this happened. If you're unable to secure one before its release, you can pay me its cost and I can have it shipped to your address.

I can't fucking believe I missed out. I may have turned away from twitter 5 mins before the heads up went out and missed it

Zelda Switch page is fixed. My order says Switch version, Switch Platform.

Only when I'm away from my desk. I'll share my Outlook calendar with everyone so you'll have some idea when.

Have case (Zelda Master Edition), Pro (Japan), and extra AC adapter (Amazon US) on order. Going to wait for a bit to get the microSDXC card... Think I just want a Joy Con Charging Grip if it would every show up anywhere and I can call this launch a day.
Yes! Thanks

Anyone have experience with PDP Headphones/Earbuds? Saw this Zelda one and was questioning whether I should buy it or not.
Also the round part is just the case right?

No problem, glad to be of help!

I wouldn't expect anything high quality in regards to sound as it seems you're paying more for the LoZ motif and carrying case than anything else.
The round part is indeed the case.

As far as standard headphones goes they'll do the job though right? Dont mind paying extra for the Zelda motif as im kinda going all out on the Zelda accessories for Switch lol. Just wanna make sure they're good and wont break on me after a couple weeks.
Yeah, it'll likely be as good as your standard run-of-the-mill pair. Durability is still up in the air, but there's also no reason as to why they wouldn't be fine with average use.

AHHH! I looked on Best Buy and it says "Authorization Failed" next to my payment. My bank denied my authorization but I said to accept - still I see no charge on my credit card. I called customer support and she told me that the preorder was still good and they'll charge me on release day, but I'm worried. The order is still there and everything and it says March 3rd, but I'm worried something is going to go wrong.

That is the gaudiest looking thing...
PDP is not known for quality so I'd buy a decent sounding (and looking) pair instead for around the same price.
The system one is great if you plan on taking with you to a friends house, or traveling. Heck, you can even use for storage.

Is there a car charger for the Switch yet? The one I saw a few days ago was scheduled for June

You mean a USB-C cable? Yeah dude, they've sold those for years now.

PDP was formerly known as "Pelican, the poor man's MadCatz"
I'd wait for reviews, at least.
I'm guessing no. I think the pouch is meant for the card case. Did you check the system case? It can hold everything, might be a good choice, if you don't mind the size.

Hahaha, driving a pre-USB car but, you're right, I can plug one of those into an adaptor. Duh,
The system case? If so then yes it does. It hold basically all you need including pro controller if you have it.
I've said it before, but I wouldn't count on it unless a region-wide restock occurs. Some people think Amazon's just sitting on them, but that doesn't really make much sense.
There were plenty of reports that the Neon version of the console was understocked compared to the Grey, so it's very possible Amazon just hasn't received any.
It sold out on day one, but it managed to come up twice in the same day. There has been no change in stock since.

Tomorrow we'll only be 5 weeks away!
so glad I traded in my WiiU. Switch is almost free.
1/13 at 12:06 PM EST per my order email. Pretty sure that was the last time it opened.
I've got the Grey Switch and Master Edition from 3:30 AM EST right after the presentation and got in on the Pro-Con in the nick of time yesterday.
Assuming everything arrives launch day as it is scheduled to (except for the Pro-Con with no date on the order), I am all set for launch.
Sold my Zelda edition Wii U on eBay last week to pay for everything. Super excited. Haven't done a Nintendo console at launch since the Wii.

They don't ship to the US though.

You would think I'd be used to disappointment by now.
BTW, you are right as I tried before seeing your comment and it told me it couldn't ship to my address, but I found this page earlier detailing shipping costs to the US which is kind of contradictory.

Amazon has the ability to restrict certain products from being shipped internationally. The same happened on Amazon Japan with the Switch.
No preorder policy doesn't necessarily mean the store will have stock come launch. I'd keep the GameStop preorder handy in the event that Meijer doesn't pan out.

Yeah, I think Nintendo mandated that they don't ship outside of their country/region.
The first day Amazon.de allowed shipping internationally (someone here ordered it shipped to South America), but then they disabled it for future orders.
That wouldn't surprise me at all considering region lock was a thing for so long with Nintendo largely due to these sort of issues.
