It really has come to this point. Best Buy's online system is erupting before our eyes and showering us with sweet sweet leaks for Switch games and more. A recap:

So far we have listings for PERSONA 5, ZELDA: A LINK TO THE PAST (?!), and METROID PRIME TRILOGY.








Everybody in the happening bunker stat!!!

This is from the same situation that the leaked Persona 5 for Switch situation is coming from. I thought it would be best for it to have a separate thread.

This is indeed the employee system. Persona 5 one seems a bit more legit, take with a grain of salt but expect a Direct soon if these are both true.

Here's hoping they don't fuck it up and leave in the traditional controls for 1 and 2. Metroid Prime 3 controlled like ass and I would love to get a version of that with twin stick controls.

At this point this is just the worst kept secret ever. Please Nintendo just announce it already.

Yeah, back when I worked there the systems would be updated a day or two in advance. You could just search games by platform in that system and you'd see some things pop up here and there. Usually there was a direct the follow day or two, at the latest a week so I'd say it's pretty safe to say one is coming. It's just odd that they'd drop both of these before E3 as they're both pretty huge.

In the Nintendo Direct, Doug Bowser saying "Thanks to our friends at Best Buy" lol.

But seriously, maybe a direct coming this month may actually happen.

On top of Persona 5 and the Metroid Trilogy, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past joined the fun in Best Buy's system, along with original, unique SKU numbers. Thanks to our good friend Wario64.



alright Best Buy is wild. Now there's a listing for THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: A LINK TO THE PAST for Switch. Not making any of this up.

Link's Awakening is already on Best Buy's system so it's not a mistake
