bad puns are nintendo's forte, so it feels appropriate in this thread

No. Clearly, that pun is not cringey enough!

... It's not out yet. How can anyone post spoilers ? (beside maybe the map translation thing...)
But yeah, there's already a thread for Zelda anyway.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

Prices for the Switch have just been announced for my region (South America):

Argentina: 11.000 pesos / 691,19 dólares.
Chile: 349.990 pesos / $531,98 dólares.
Perú: 1699 Soles / $514,44 dólares.
Brasil: 1.200 Reais / $378,42 dólares.

Anyone knows if Brazil is manufacturing it? The price is way too low to have it being imported.

I'll def wait for some friends to travel to USA to get it.

Yes, that'd be swell.

I'm one of the types that avoid all game related content and trailers till release, so not spoiling it in this thread would be great.

If I can make a suggestion
Let's invent a place where we can openly talk about specific subjects without spilling over other discussions that aren't really related
and when there's some sort of new information that people don't want to see just yet, maybe we could hide stuff, with, I don't know, a specific piece of text on which you can click to show or hide another longer piece of text, that way if someone doesn't want to read it yet he can just not click it
and if I may be so bold, I say we could call this a "forum", "creating or picking a dedicated topic in which to post" and a "spoiler tag"

what do you guys think

Wow, you put a lot of thought into making this post as passive aggressive as possible didn't you?

Doesn't seem like it. I don't think he even edited it once.

lol fuck off

Hey, could be worse...

Argentina: 11.000 pesos / 691,19 dólares.

Like... I don't even know why they bother with this as it's not going to sell at all here. The fact that you can get it for cheaper if you travel to a neighbor country and buy it there and come back is ridiculous.

It should be far cheaper by March because by then the government is going to get rid of a tech related import tax but I doubt Nintendo is going to adjust the price of an area the company doesn't even know where's in the map.

my griping about the switch's price here isn't very useful without comparisons to the other consoles. for the following i will use the prices found at american gamestop and chilean microplay for new consoles

Quote
Switch:
AMERICA: 300 dollars
CHILE: 531 dollars

PS4 Pro 1TB
AMERICA: 400 dollars
CHILE: 563 dollars

PS4 Slim 500GB with Uncharted 4
AMERICA: 300 dollars
CHILE: 396 dollars

Xbox One S 500GB Minecraft Favorites Console Bundle
AMERICA: 300 dollars
CHILE: 479 dollars

Xbox One S 2TB Console - Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Bundle
AMERICA: 450 dollars
CHILE: 610 dollars

what's it like in argentina for the other consoles, rednavi? i'd look myself but i don't know which store has relatively good prices

This is the updated list with the new prices I've added. I just checked my usual three most popular console related sites to get the cheapest price these consoles go for (Not all the prices belong to one particular store but there aren't many differences between them anyway):

Switch:
AMERICA: 300 dollars
CHILE: 531 dollars
ARGENTINA: 691,19 dollars

PS4 Pro 1TB
AMERICA: 400 dollars
CHILE: 563 dollars
ARGENTINA: 754 dollars

PS4 Slim 500GB with Uncharted 4
AMERICA: 300 dollars
CHILE: 396 dollars
ARGENTINA: 628 dollars

Xbox One S 500GB Minecraft Favorites Console Bundle
AMERICA: 300 dollars
CHILE: 479 dollars
ARGENTINA: 629 dollars

Xbox One S 2TB Console - Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Bundle
AMERICA: 450 dollars
CHILE: 610 dollars
ARGENTINA: 848 dollars

These should all go down once we hit March unless people want to rip off their consumers even more. It's pretty common for Argentinians to go to Chile to buy tech related stuff because it's cheaper than importing the stuff. That's kinda why we're getting some changes to make tech stuff more affordable soon (Finally something *good* happening to personal importing for once).

holy shit that's insane. if you know any argentineans* that want to come over to chile to buy shit and need a place to stay let me know
*single women only



some nintendo network accounts have been compromised (people got access to the names and passwords). there's a list compromised accounts here (there are roughly 450 of them), however you might want to change your passwords if you used the same one for other important shit like your email (whoever had access to the passwords might have access to all of them)
