I'm ready for the 7.8/10- too much land.
I kinda blew my cash on the Switch & Zelda. I'm trying to rebuild my funds for BotW's DLC, Tekken 7, Injustice 2, MK8 Deluxe, ARMS, Splatoon 2, Super Mario Odyssey, & MvCI.
what musical?
The Musical of Musicals: The Musical!
It's a parody of sorts referencing tons of classic musicals.

Dang, good on you hiphop for not posting the retailer. I'd imagine Nintendo is trying to look into it, no?
I guess it would be if you are hyped for Zelda but I'm just waiting to see how the launch plays out. Hopefully I will be able to do more then basic coverage on the Switch at launch via news posts and whatnot, but I'm not rushing out to get one at launch.
I'm personally waiting for 3D Mario to land and even then I will likely pick my Switch up in 2018 (I'm still trying to save up for a PS4 currently).
But I am happy people are excited for the Switch and hopefully the system meets everyone's expectations at launch. Can't wait to see reviews for Zelda and Bomberman land
.oh cool
It's actually a ton of fun to be a part of cast-wise.....& a great time-killer as I wait for the Switch.

Darn, I was hoping for "Springtime for Hitler and Germany."
hopefully everyone is aware of the Mel Brooks classic "The Producers"?
That sounds pretty fun and endearing, actually.
Theatre's my minor, so yeah.
Maybe next semester.
Don't worry, I'm aware.
Oh it is, I can't wait for us to actually perform. The show is coming along quite nicely.

I hope he saw your post about how you are struggling and helped you by hosting this video.
So crazy that our first walkthrough of the OS and the first unboxing vids aren't slick Nintendo vids but user-made content.
What on earth is happening with Nintendo's messaging here? We're like two weeks out, people are getting systems early already, and so much stuff is still a mystery. Bizarre.

They probably are but haven't contacted me. I'm not going to give out the retailer because I don't want anyone to get in trouble. Though I'm not a big fan of the people accusing me of stealing it or doing something shady to get it. I had no clue I was going to get it early until it was at my door. No one has been more surprised than me about it and I'm just trying to answer everyone's questions as best I can. But it has been pretty overwhelming!

Jesus fucking Christ I was joking about spoilers. My point was that opening the console package for the first time is so nice, you know what's inside but you don't know how it's organized and it feels awesome finding it out for yourself. I have a very soft spot for how consoles are housed in their boxes.
At the same time I'm very curious specifically with the Switch to see how it is. And yet I don't want to spoil myself the fun in opening it myself. That's it. Didn't know spoilerphobia was a thing so hey at least I learned something.

Wait so, who is this person and how did he get a console so early? (sorry if this was answered in the other thread but I haven't been able to sift through it)
edit: oh shi- he's a poster here!?

Hardware epiphanies are both beautiful and dangerous. Have fun!
Enjoy your Switch.

A unnamed retailer broke the street date
I have Nioh. When that's done, I have Yakuza 0.
I won't finish both
not before March 3rd at leastPeakPointMatrix

Holy crap. That must mean there could be a couple hundred others getting their console early. (perhaps viral marketing from Nintendo?)

Can we get a tear down please?!? The god damn speculation on specs is driving me nuts.

I see some dead pixels on the screen
I keep checking my email and bank account info to see if I might be the beneficiary of a mis-ship as well. It's nice to daydream.
No, you see dust.

What speculation? We know it's a Tegra based system.
The other one is waiting in line near a store.

That means virtually nothing. A Tegra chip can be as powerful as a Vita or twice as strong as a Scorpio depending on what's actually on it. The name Tegra references the line of chips.
So it would be really cool to get a teardown before the Switch releases, though I can understand hiphop not wanting to give up his new toy.

lol I keep checking these threads in the hopes hiphoptherobot answered people's questions or showed off more of the system, but it's like we got a slightly more informative look at some elements than we got before and now there is nothing to talk about so it goes back to the same discussion that's in every Switch thread.
