When yhe fuck will i be able to buy one? I just want to play botw without buying a dead console or 64 gigs of ram

kek they're not even hard to find just stop being a sperg and go to a store, you won't die just from going out in public
>>
>>376656534
I bet they were all gone an hour after you left though.

How yo get to store without drivers license? I work close enough that i dont need to spend all the extea money on a car so i dont even bother with a license
>>
>>376656404
Call everywhere around you. I got lucky and found a place that had one left and they held it for me until I got there
>>
>>376656404
Couple of tens of thousands of people are able to buy it every week. Probably hundreds of thousands worldwide. Of course these people are better than you, that's why.
>>
>>376656980
>better than me
Probably true but shouldnt hinder me from getting one forever
>>
>>376657056
It should, not everyone should just be able to own a Switch, look at the PS4 fanbase
>>
>fiancee's sister bought one yesterday and showed it to us
>It's smaller than I expected
>She is geeking out over BotW graphics, basically squealing going "it's so pretty!!!"
It honestly doesn't look that impressive, and I'm surprised she thinks it looks good, considering she normally plays on PC
>>
>>376657056
You just have to be better than other people and be inside that hundred thousand people group. What are the odds, in the tens? That's pretty high. Every week.

>Gamestop has them in stock regularly

JUST GIVE ME THE FUCKING DEVICE
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE THIS HARD
I can't imagine exclusively selling them in bundles is doing you any fucking favors
>>
>>376657381
A hundred thousand people buy the Switch every week worldwide and you're complaining here on an anonymous image board.
>>
>>376657434
>switch has no games
>selling them bundled with games

Which is it? And what does the bundle come with? Might be an option for me
>>
>>376657263

Your fiance's sister has revealed the truth that the industry refuses to recognize: art direction is more important than polycounts and texture resolutions.
>>
>>376657568
Zelda, Binding of Isaac, 1,2,Switch, and Snipperclips. They might've added Mario Kart since, I don't know.
>>
>>376657678
That might be true, but her favorite game ever is TLoU so I guess story matters too. But still, the switch itself just seems underwhelming
>>
>>376657776
3 of those are good though
>>
>>376657776
I actually like 2 out of those 4 12 switch i wont like at all and snipper clips looked fun if you can find someone to play with you does it come with any other things or just the console and games
>>
>>376657457
Yeah, they bought a Switch. Yet another reason I'm better than them.
>>
>>376657263
I just imagine you are some fat fuck
>>
>>376657979
Sure, and I'm probably going to play them eventually, but withholding the console from me unless I buy ALL OF THEM RIGHT THIS SECOND is pretty shitty. There's not even a discount for the bundle, it's the exact same price as buying everything individually.
What if I don't want to plunk down 600 bucks in one sitting? What if I'd just be happy with Zelda until I get around to Binding of Isaac?
>>
>>376658250
I'm sorry you're projecting, but simply because I don't like a console I am fat?
>>
I live in Atlanta. It took 3 phone calls to surrounding stores and found a Target and Toys R Us with one. Went to the closest store and now enjoy MK.
>>
>>376656404
I've actually only seen a single one in a store since it launched. I had other things to take care of so I didn't pick it up, I went back for it and it was gone, haven't seen once since. Pretty frustrating.
>>
>>376657434
>I can't imagine exclusively selling them in bundles is doing you any fucking favors
It'll make them money as long as the switch is supply-constrained, which it seems like it will be for a while yet.
>>
>>376658456
This and at least it keeps them out of scalper hands for the time being
>>
>>376657776
I thought snipperclips was an eShop exclusive
>>
I just went and looked on the gamestop webaite this looks like a pretty sweet deal to be honest
>>
>>376658808
Probably just a download code.
>>
What's the best SD card for Switch?
>>
>>376659117
The microSD card seems to be way overpriced at about $40.
At least all the games are good.
>>
>>376658360
Are you? You are posting on /v/ after all. I gained 30 pounds ibn my time here
>>
>>376659262
Meh i already ave a 64 gig anyway but between this abd about the same price to a scalper for just the console ill go with this

Fuck off shill
>>
>>376659513
And its through a scalper for about twice the price
>>
>>376659591
Yeah well blame nintendp for their bullshit artificial scarcity crap
>>
>>376659232
Not sure, but don't bother with the XTREME TURBOSPEED ones, the switch can't actually read them any faster.
>>
>>376659641
As someone stated they are sellong plenty of switches its just that some are luckier than otherw and they have doubled production if acalpers didnt exist it would be about the same story just all legit buyers
>>
>>376659751
Dude spare me that bullshit. Nintendo could have switches for everyone who wants one if they weren't engaging in shitty artificial scarcity practices. You never ever see this crap from microsoft or sony
>>
>>376659641
Artificial scarcity doesn't make any sense for a system that launched in March to higher-than-expected sales. Especially since Nintendo's future is riding on this one system and each unit sold leads to sales of accessories and games.
>>
>>376659838
>sony
Sure, if we ignore the PS2
and the PS4
and PSVR
>>
>>376656404
>64 gigs of ram

botw on cemu still has some problems but whoever told you you needed 64gb of ram is a retard
>>
>>376659838
Sony and microsoft can afford the debt of paying for all the units in advance nintendo has to be a lot more careful about how much they ship since games is all they really do
>>
>>376659905
And, let me guess, you believe that nintendo couldn't get enough switches to the market 2 MONTHS after release if they wanted to? Bull fucking crap. They're intentionally refusing to meet demand in a shitty attempt to manufacture more demand
>>

It takes about a month to up production.
It takes about another month to two months to actually ship them across the ocean and get them in stores.

first off what cache are you using, my 9k cache doesn't manage to fill my 16gb on compile, please don't tell me you're using that bogus 16k cache

second the crashes are probably caused by gpufenceskip=on which is kind of necessary for good performance, that said the crashes are hardly frequent enough to hamper things much
>>
>>376660359
Funny joke anon

You believe any bullcrap you hear don't you? There's this thing called mass production and modern shipping methods, together they make it very possible for nintendo to meet their weak demand. They have no interest in doing it

Again, you don't see this crap from other consoles
>>
>>376657904
Does your fiance's sister play any graphics-intensive PC games or is it just WoW, LoL, Overwatch, CSGO, etc.?

If it's any of the above listed, I fail to see how you'd be surprised given all those popular games are made to be run on toasters, unless she's an enthusiast who built her own PC.
>>
>>376656404
>>fiancee's sister bought one yesterday and showed it to us

>>She is geeking out over BotW graphics, basically squealing going "it's so pretty!!!"

She was talking about the visual style you inbred.
>>
>>376660591
Every five minutes it crashes for me and worse in the mountains and where in the fuck do i find this 9k shader cache? I have looks all over for any different one
>>
>>376659232
If you're going all in for digital, I ordered this one on sale for $120 and am enjoying it greatly.

Definitely going to come in handy for games that don't come over here like Taiko Drum Master among other games.

>And, let me guess, you believe that nintendo couldn't get enough switches to the market 2 MONTHS after release if they wanted to?
Anon, I don't think you have any clue whatsoever how manufacturing and distribution work.

It takes 6 weeks just to ship shit from China. Then you have to get those to retailers via distribution centres. That's a 1.5 months gone already.

Then there's securing the necessary components for each Switch (screens, tegras, motion IMUs, etc). If any suppliers can't produce faster, that bottlenecks YOUR production. For example, Japan Display is providing all the Switch screens. Nintendo announced doubled production shortly after launch, so I presume all their suppliers are capable of meeting that target, but that doesn't mean they can ramp up production instantly.

Likewise, you can't ramp up manufacturing instantly. Do you imagine Nintendo can just press the TURBO BOOST button on their factory and have it pump out Switches faster? That's not how it works. Factories are always utilizing their full capacity. They can't lease time at other factories instantly, either. Factories don't sit idle. They're booked, and if you want them to fit you in, you need to wait. That typically takes at least 2 months.

This stuff isn't as simple as you make it out to be. Hence why Sony has had the same issues.

>>
>>376660359
>It takes about a month to up production.
As a best-case scenario.

>>376661229
Anon, the PS2, PS4, and PSVR all had fucking supply issues. The PS2 supply was so bad around the launch of the slim that the fucking xbox outsold it for several months in Holiday 2004 NPD. The PS4 was sold out just as long as the Switch has been. The PSVR is still supply-constrained, and it launched 3+ months before the Switch.

I assume that, since you ignored the rest of my post, you have no issue with my comments on the reality of manufacturing?

You are actually lucky because there is not much to play right now. By the time you can get one, maybe the virtual console will have launched.

Two months ago i picked mine in a bundle for $400 or $450. I got Breath of the Wild with the expansion pass(only made is as far as to getting the camera for the slate) Shovel Knight (never played it before until now, but i beat it) Snipperclippers, and Fast RMX. I bought I Am Setsuna to hold myself over for a while. I will say, i put heavy hours into it once Mario Kart 8 came out and now it's just only two more weeks until Disgea 5 comes out before i sink more hours into it.

Sorry you wernt a loyal fan and didnt stand in line on launch day.

You plan on working that job forever?
What about moving to a new bigger house in an area where you cannot walk everywhere?
Get your license, you don't need a car now but you never know what the future holds. Why limit your options?
>>
>>376664547
Because if i have a license people in my family will ask me to drive them places using their cars its the same reason i try to stay on the weaker side so im not asked to help people move

I was at the Nintendo Store at Rockefeller Center a few days ago and I saw a pile of a about a dozen Switches behind the counter. People were buying them so I don't think that pile lasted too long though.

Best Buy employee here. We usually get a shipment of switches at least once a week, two weeks at max. Just call and ask what days the trucks come in, and stop by around 4 or 5 that day. I know that we had around 47 of them in stock one week, and they were there for quite a while. It's easy for an employee to check in the system to see if any other stores in the district have them, as well. We can't hold them for you, but a lot of people don't even know that the switches are constantly being restocked, so they end up sitting for a while. It's not uncommon for us to still have switches the day after we get them in, and I work in a college town. Just ask.
