Ummm. I think you are using it wrong...

Love this notion of the price dropping or that Nintendo is dead. This console is their biggest win since Wii. Not counting 3ds.

The switch has sold more in its initial 6 months in Japan than the PS4, and the switch launched outside peak retail.
Also the stock shortages etc.

Whether you like it or not the console is a success so far. If you don't want one, don't buy one (and maybe don't spend your time in threads relating to them?)

Great deal.

I'm waiting for sub £200 with bundled games... I reckon when the next gen PlayStation and X box come it will drop... Here's hoping anyway

This will only go under £200 with a possible game bundle when they release the next iteration of the switch...give it two years and you're laughing with the savings you'll make.
Wait 2 years just to save £80? You seriously undervalue your time.

I agree it's a poor design. I use an extension cable so I don't have to put it in the dock. I also have my switch in a hard shell, so it wouldn't fit in the dock anyway, so this solution works well (without having to keep removing the case)

I have had the neon console since release. I keep meaning to but I still haven't put the screen protector on that I have. I dock it quite regularly (carefully) and it hasn't got a scratch on it. In terms of games, I already have more than I have time to play. Zelda, Lego city, Disgaea, Mario + Rabbids, Binding of Isaac, Bomberman, Mariokart, Minecraft, Sonic Mania, Fast RMX, plus loads of other eshop titles which seem to be being added constantly. I think theres a total of over 100 games available on the eshop now (lots of them indies). Yes theres a lot of ports too but playing them all on the go is awesome. Loads more indie games are in the pipeline too - just look at the latest nindies direct.

I'm not convinced theres going to be any significant reductions - why bother reducing it when they're selling as fast as can be supplied? If you have the patience then yeah wait some and you might save some money but I say buy it now it's money well spent!!! Oh and I can't wait for Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade!

If it was Grey then maybe.
If it included a game then definitely.

Still can't pull the trigger.

Love my switch! Gf got me one as a surprise when they launched!

I think I'm gonna hold out a little longer until it's around £210.

I own around 20+ games for my switch already, so saying there is a lack of content is nonsense. Sounds like your friend needs to buy more games! Obviously not every indie game is going to be ported to the switch, but a lot of the great ones are already available and new ones being announced all the time (edited)

Not really. The dock just isn't wide enough. Look at the corners. They end up getting scratched

It won't get much cheaper for a very long time. Nintendo is notorious for holding value until the next iteration of their own console

Great console at a great price, I got mine at launch and still play it often, more so than my PC, XB1 and PS4. (edited)

Mine has no scratches and has been in and out the dock multiple times every week since launch. Unsure what people are doing to scratch it.

Been on the fence for a while about getting one yet, but with £26 worth of Clubcard vouchers, £229 seemed too good a price to miss. Pick it up on Wednesday
12th Sep 2017
Got this on Friday for for £279.99

Not even mad, I have had the most enjoyable dumps in all my life over the weekend playing Mario Kart

As a fellow PC gamer I would strongly recommend the Switch. It's an awesome bit of kit and games like BOTW are beyond belief.

I thought the lack of horsepower would mean the graphics are naff but they look great due to artstyle and excellent screen.

It's also great when you have friends over, so many good multiplayer games.

Trust me, you won't regret buying.. I didn't.

Thanks for this, was planning on getting one for son for xmas, so have just ordered, along with my wifes 10% staff discount and a £2 Clubcard voucher she had on her account got it for £227, not bad, usually hate buying stuff like this way in advance as I will in effect loose 3 months warranty but it would be sods law there will be none left in December.

£250 with Super Mario Odyssey over the November sales weekend and I'll bite.
11th Sep 2017
Just bought the Grey for my son for Christmas, used the £25 off code and had almost £50 in clubcard points, so quite pleased with that, as close to £200 as I am going to get this year.

Just need 2 or 3 games for it now and will have one happy boy come Christmas morning

Pale and frothing around the lips from dehydration, most likely after a long gaming session.We can only presume it dies out soon and a more evolved order of every console being judged on its merits becomes the norm, as opposed to X<Y.This console is expensive for what it is and for what games are available on it.

Can I have some of what your smoking?

Yeah... completely overlooked the cost of the software in my original post.

Paying £40-50 for Nintendo Switch games just seems ridiculous now when AAA games can be had on the PS4 for roughly half the price. And to be honest, I could never go back to the days of paying that sort of money for a game.

Edit: and for anyone who is going to accuse me of spouting anti-Nintendo sentiments, I voted this deal "hot". (edited)

Indie games are being announced and coming out all the time on it. And let's be fair, it will end the year with the strongest support from first party this year of all the three systems. (edited)

They are predicting big stock shortages for Xmas due to shortage of components.

These will be going for insane prices in December - got a feeling they will be on a lot Christmas lists. I'd get it now or wait until next year when supply is available.
11th Sep 2017
Coming down nicely but Nintendo always crashes. Can't believe people paying £40 for the games crazy. They will all be £15 each soon. Under £200 this will be by Black Friday imo. Will get my son one for xmas at that. Or below
