^Me too.
I figured it'd countdown like it does on PS4. I'm not necessarily upset that it doesn't unlock at midnight, but would it be too much to ask for a specific unlock time?

This is my first and last digital purchase on the Switch. What's the point of preordering if you can't play the game at midnight smh

Man; I beat the game on PC and Xbox One and now I am sitting in front of my Switch waiting for the game to unlock. Come on Nintendo, my body is Reggie for more Cuphead!

My guess at this point is that the game will unlock at standard eShop unlock time (which, for Europe is in 5 hours and 40 minutes, longer wait for the US). AFAIK, there has been no communication from Studio MDHR that they have selected any other unlock time.

Good to know, thanks for the Information. Now we have at least a time

I am finding the controls using the joycons quite unresponsive and a bit awkward. The shooting seems to stop randomly, odd. The dash button also feels odd, but you can remap.

Disappointing, anyone else with similar issues?

Still haven't bought it yet, so I'm checking.

What territory are you in? I'm in the UK and it's still on preorder.

Hoping to play at lunch at 1pm, but others are saying it will go live at 2pm. I don't understand why it doesn't go live midnight.

I've known the eShop update a little later than that. I've never preordered a game digitally so haven't known the frustration, but man they need to fix this. If it releases on 17th April, it needs to be out on the 17th of April.

I sooo can't wait to get this next week when I get paid. Unfortunately, this game looks crazy hard, I'll need a Konami cheat code for extra lives or I'll probably never finish... my gaming skills aren't what they used to be.

I wish MDHR would work on a Mario platformer done in old Nintendo art style

Yes please!! I absolutely love Nintendo's 80s art styles!

The Rhythm Heaven series actually harkens back to this era of Nintendo in its own in-game art and animation too!

Who knows? With Nintendo now willing to license out their IP to indie devs, perhaps we could see this style make more of a comeback!

I imagine if Cuphead sells particularly well on Switch that the team would be inclined to work with Nintendo on a project!

I'm trying to replace a toilet seat and there is no way Cuphead can be as hard as this
