Got the grey one! Canceling the Best Buy order I made 20 min ago

 

[PhazonBlazer]

Ok I got it, now should I keep this or my Best Buy one.

 

[SynthFetish]

Ugh, grey is up. But I want neon...

 

[LordGorchnik]

Its up on Amazon gogogo

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LTHP2ZK/?tag=neogaf0e-20

 

[pelicansurf]

So does this come with a prime discount as well
?

 

[Mutagenic]

Glad it's not the neon one. That looks way too distracting while looking at the screen.

 

[Earendil]

Got one finally.

 

[ZeroMaverick]

Neon where are you ;_;

;_;

 

[m_shortpants]

Sweet, got one.

Also have one from Best Buy which I'll sell to my brothers.

 

[Karspankey]

So does this come with a prime discount as well
?

No, that's only for games and accessories!

 

[hanspampel]

Awesome - I feel way better now.

Thank you!

So I now have:

1 for BB shipping
1 for BB pick-up
1 for Walmart shipping
1 for Amazon shipping

Whichever one I get first (hopefully midnight release at BB), I'll keep and return the others. But I don't see myself getting fucked at this point (crosses fingers)

no wonder it's hard to get switch at launch
this is one reason, why you never ever make such a statement as the manufacturer
people will go crazy and order 2 or more units to be safe

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

haha sneaky amazon put up preorders again just got one

 

[komorebi]

Bless you mad hawks keeping an eye on Amazon. Just got a pre-order in...now for Zelda and a Pro Controller. Come on Amz.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

So does this come with a prime discount as well
?

Prime discount doesn't apply to hardware, nor does Best Buy Gamers' Club.

 

[Subterranean]

Glad I saw it in stock, thanks Wario64!

I already preordered from Best Buy but I feel much more comfortable with a Amazon order so BB is canceled.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Boom bitch. Now to cancel my best buy preorder and sit at home and wait for it to come to me.

 

[Hysterical]

Cancelled my Best Buy and got an Amazon order. I feel safer that way, thanks for the post.

 

[Kodiak]

Question about preorders on Amazon: can I change the shipping address at any time before it ships? I'm at a temporary lease and don't know where I'll be living in March, lol.

 

[AColdDay]

YEEESSSSS I GOT MY AMAZON ORDER. I get release day shipping, and now I'm off to cancel my target preorder.

 

[greelay]

Got one! Hell yeah.

Anyone know if you can apply gift cards after the initial preorder?

I remember people trying to do this when the Xbox one was about to come out and there were reports of it cancelling your order. That was a while ago, and maybe they fixed it. But I am going to go into a chat with an amazon rep and ask them to do it for me, because I am in a similar situation.

 

[Poot Poot Splash]

Awesome - I feel way better now.

Thank you!

So I now have:

1 for BB shipping
1 for BB pick-up
1 for Walmart shipping
1 for Amazon shipping

Whichever one I get first (hopefully midnight release at BB), I'll keep and return the others. But I don't see myself getting fucked at this point (crosses fingers)

I admit I did exactly the same thing.

1 for BB shipping
1 for BB pick-up
1 for Gamestop shipping (used paypal so already charged ugh)
1 for Amazon shipping

3 out of 4 are the neon and the amazon is the gray. If i can pick it up at best buy at midnight i'm going to return or if possible cancel the others.

 

[Jugendstil]

Got one! Good looking out GAF!

 

[Camjo-Z]

Phew, now it should actually arrive on launch day. Goodbye Walmart preorder!

 

[JacksUsername]

Nice! Got one. Going to cancel my Wal-Mart pre-order but keep my Best Buy in-store pickup one as a backup until we get closer to launch.

 

[Makki]

Got one yesssss!!!!

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

Just, why?

When the Xbox 360 came out, I preordered at Blockbuster GameRush. At the time, they were way better than Gamestop and were a premier seller of games.

I checked every.single.day for two weeks that there were no issues.

And then the night of, my Xbox was stuck on a plane in Ohio. I ended up camping in line in 18 degree freezing weather in shorts and a t-shirt for 12 hours outside of Best Buy to get the 35th out of 36 systems they had ready for launch.

Never again.

I've been "screwed" like five times at a console launch. So now I just over prepare.

 

[BlueSteel]

Surprisingly good timing on my end I guess. Pre-ordered... even though I'm not too enthused about the launch lineup, I realistically was only going to get Zelda anyways, so whatever.

 

[meanspartan]

When does amazon charge for preorder? Not til shipment right?

 

[PhazonBlazer]

When does amazon charge for preorder? Not til shipment right?

I believe so

 

[oatmeal]

Got two preorders now. Best Buy pick up might be better.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Question about preorders on Amazon: can I change the shipping address at any time before it ships? I'm at a temporary lease and don't know where I'll be living in March, lol.

I think you can change anything after. I just changed my credit card for example.

Just so long as your new address isn't in a different country or something lol

 

[Alfredo]

Pre-ordered from Best Buy earlier, but just did one for Amazon, too, in case Best Buy messes up.

Pretty silly that we have to do this. Pre-orders should be guaranteed, but we all know how that goes...

 

[LordGorchnik]

When does amazon charge for preorder? Not til shipment right?

Correct but you may see a temporary hold on your card.

 

[outunderthestars]

Wow! Thanks for the update. Snagged one!

Now I have threepreordered:

1 for me
1 for my wife
1 to cancel in the first two come through.

 

[RandomExpletive]

We in there. Can't wait to play BOTW

 

[Jack John]

So what else do you need to buy? Does it come with the charger? Which charger do I get if not? I'm a little confused.

 

[Omnicent]

just got my pre-order in

 

[Biske]

I've never had a problem with Amazon preorders. They always done me right. To be fair Best Buy as well, but their constantly adding and removing holds, is a true pain in the ass.

 

[Cell_Biology]

Got my Best Buy in-store pickup preorder and now Amazon, waiting for the neon set and I will probably cancel my Best Buy order.

 

[Howard Ballou]

Snagged one, got my dang money again Nintendo.

 

[Meohsix]

got my amazon order in =D

 

[Neoweee]

Waiting for the colored set.

 

[Kodiak]

I think you can change anything after. I just changed my credit card for example.

Just so long as your new address isn't in a different country or something lol

I'm wondering if it would be a terrible idea to send it to an Amazon locker...

 

[grandjedi6]

Awesome - I feel way better now.

Thank you!

The fuck is this shit?

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

2nd preorder in.

 

[Saro]

Any ETA on the Neon set?

 

[outunderthestars]

The fuck is this shit?

The end result of being a Nintendo fan after years of undershipped product launches.

 

[Spine_Ripper]

Got one. I'm so undecided on this and broke as shit atm lol. Better safe than sorry, so i'll hold on to it for now.

 

[Lorcain]

Pre-order went through for Amazon. Phew. Hard part done. Now need to get a pre-order for BoTW.

 

[meanspartan]

I believe so

Correct but you may see a temporary hold on your card.

Awesome, thanks.

Got my preorder in, not sure I'll keep it but I'd like to preserve the option.
