If it really is 400 here then I will definitely sell my OG 2017 one instead of keeping it for modding I guess.

Well, sucks but what can you do.

The FedEx guy just told me he's trying for a pre-order after seeing my Metroid Draculabyte shirt.

LET'S GO ALREADY

Not buy it so the next Switch version isn't 449€

Has nothing to do with that, the current price conversion is fucked up in general, look at Sony games at 80€ while it's 70$ there.
Once 1:1 conversion was a slap in the face, but we're past that for some reason and it's not because I bought this or that product.

Weird in portugal one of the shops i trust has the pre-orders open and it costs 350€.

The bad thing is that they are now taking the money at the time of the pre-order and not when it releases as it was with other consoles releases.

This is going to annoy me because if they put the US preorders up later on in the day, I won't be available to preorder it immediately.

Nothing is popping up on r/Gamestop so the waiting game continues.

Just got a notification from BB, but not that ordering is available, just linking to the landing page for the new Switch (still listed as " Coming Soon" )

Nearest brick and mortar GameStop (EDT) says no pre-orders currently. Associate speculated they would by end of this week or beginning of next.

Why tf is there a £7 delivery fee from Smyths, didn't think they'd stoop to GAME's level

They are very reliable though and you usually receive packages from them a day or two early.

Genius UK retailers are going to make pre-orders available while everyone's distracted watching the England vs Denmark game 😈 Thus ensuring me getting a pre-order! Mwuhahahaha

Ah, thanks.
I was wondering, since the page is showing both models now.

I guess it's another great opportunity for a genius bootstrapper to become a tech-savvy person exploiting the supercharged resale market for scarce goods!

For UK people:

It still kinda looks like GAME and Smyths Toys are the only ones offering preorders at the moment. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I caved and ordered from Smyths (7 pounds delivery), but am still keen to see whether an Amazon.co.uk SKU becomes available soon.

It will. Will be a random drop but Amazon usually get a pretty big allocation, so as long as you hear about it relatively quickly you'll get an order in.

Best Buy must be getting close. They have a product landing page and emails for "preorder notifications". Although I always get those notifications hours late.
