Such a bright artwork theme for MK8D but no neon controllers? ball dropped.
There's a bundle with Neon controllers as well.
Its clearly not real artwork

I guess the ball was dropped, after all!
aaa...haa...haa...........................
sigh
Neon joycons look like ass in front of Rainbow Road.Neon version as well
Link?
I mean, I believe you, but I really want to see what else the "leak" mentioned.
Price on the site (nintendo.ru) is 24 999 rubel for the bundle ($440, €414, £350) and 22 499 for a regular switch ($395, €372, £316), so a difference of 2500 rubel for comparison ($44, €41, £35), or assuming vat is 18% (quick google), that would be $37 without vat (€35, £29,5)
Well, I don't know if you've heard but it's a console.
Also this was the original box.

I have blue and red Wii Remotes with a Wii U Basic Model, so, I was delighted to learn that neon colours would exist on the Switch. My sole criticisms of recent Nintendo controllers are that they haven't retained the Japanese/European SNES colour coding for the buttons. New 3DS addressed this problem to an extent, but for home consoles, I felt that this was one area that could be better. I don't care for disablist "Fisher Price" comments, because, for me, I found it easier to process.
sounds like a game cost + switch bundle to me then

Um, go on... What was the rest of the leak?
Neon as well
and you thought finding a switch now was hard.

Getting the normal bundle is still already hard enough, this will be impossible to get.

Russian Nintendo needs to recruit someone with Photoshop skills.
I walked past a shop today which was offering a second hand Switch for just 425
Yeah you're reading this right. Nintendo needs to keep momentum up.
yes, going to be watching tonight for a buddy......I hate the fact that I passively am searching for these damn things for friends lol
I can see them doing something like: MK8D+Switch bundle in NA/Europe, and Splatoon2+Switch bundle in Japan. I don't see them bundling ARMS.
There's a line outside of GameStop in the middle of the day for an unannounced bundle?
it was a joke but its the Switch, random lines at random stores are a regular thing. people are freaking stalking UPS trucks

Hnngh. I said I'd hold out.. But a definitive Mario Kart game.. hm....
What about the issues about the joycons and the dock scratching. What's going on with that?
Any resolution for those kind of problems?

Sounds like it was a production problem in the initial batch that has already been corrected at the plant level. Even the fix is stupid easy.
They doubled their initial production to 16mil. It's hard to fill demand when everyone wants one.

even the NES classic struggle is still real
-BotW Hard Mode introduction, new flying dungeons and the Cave of Trials, a 50 room dungeon
-Switch VC, 80 titles launching May 12th, including F-Zero, Paper Mario and OoT. Prices from $1.99 (GB games) to $10 (N64).
-Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
-Mario vs Donkey Kong Mini Shift for Switch
-Splatoon 2, June 30th
-ARMS, May 26th
-Third party stuff, Rayman Legends and Steamworld Dig 2 amiibo
-Ever Oasis
-Miitopia
-Crashmo World (Switch)
-Fire Emblem Echoes
-Corrin (M and F) Smash Bros amiibos
-Fire Emblem Warriors (Switch in fall, 3DS in winter)
These last two pieces of info are the ones that lead me to believe this is fake. they wouldn't dare to announce new Smash amiibos without announcing the port and without saying where the hell are the Cloud and Bayonetta amiibos. Also why would they release Fire Emblem 3DS first? It makes no sense.

This was posted on April 5th, though.

Allegedly, according to WSJ. And it was doubling their initial production estimate of 8m for FY17, meaning April '17 to April '18 in which the production would be 16m. We don't know how fast it is from production to retail though, or what kind of numbers they've already done for production.

So will you be able to buy this in a store? Or do I need to camp the BST thread and buy it from a scalper?
Wait so on April 5th this guy said there would be a direct on the 13th? That's really specific. Hmmm... it's hard to believe some of this stuff though.

Yeah, 80 VC games is very un-Nintendo.

Of all that crazy wish thinking only the last 2 triggered the bullshit flag for you?

80 vc titles???? Hmmmmmm
This is currently the line for Nintendo Switches. I believe this is at the Nintendo Store in New York
This cannot be real- If it is, it confirms the theory videogames don't necessarily need to have a strong launch lineup to actually sell.
Seems legit

Zelda is a stronger launch line up than the first year of some consoles lol

It's definitely real, and you're confusing having a wide variety of titles with having a strong launch lineup. BotW is probably the best console launch game since Mario 64 (if not better).

like this picture is today
April 12, 2017?
If so......dear god I am glad I got my switch early because this winter is going to be a blood bath trying to get one.

80 VC titles would make sense for any company but Nintendo. That's the hilarious part. If they decided to be normal this would be believable.

One night of waiting till 2am to pre-order was worth it.
