Animal Crossing New Horizons Switch!

It looks very nice and cute, but I already have a Switch, so I'll pass. I just have the newer model (the higher battery life one), with the original Red and Blue JoyCons it came with. I do like the pastel ones for this Switch, so maybe if they sold those separately, I'd just get those. If not, the purple and orange set look cool too. Only problem is that I don't really have a reason to get more JoyCons, and I would like to get a Pro Controller or a GameCube style wireless one...
 
How are you all getting your Switches on the 13th? Here in the Netherlands the AC-themed Switch planned release date is on March 20, so the release date of the game.

I am already stressed because I am sooooo hoping it will arrive in the morning so I have time to transfer my account and save data from my old Switch to the new Animal Crossing Switch, and then I still need to download the game before I am able to play!
 
I pre ordered mine a few days after it was announced. And I got really lucky too, because the place I pre ordered it at only got one pre order, and I got it. I’ve never had a switch before, so I’m so excited to get mine!

Interesting. The official release date by Nintendo is the 13th. Should be like that everywhere.
 
Thank you!! And I also have a launch switch!! IT HAS BLUETOOTH COMPATIBILITY?! YES LOL.
I will
Be picking it up on the release day! Gonna transfer everything over and sell off my old one :3

Haha yes! I was really excited when I learned about that, too. That sounds like fun! I actually kind of wanted to pick mine up myself, but BB won't let me change it from shipping, so I'll just have to be content with that (assuming it doesn't get canceled). And I've heard that the OG Switch goes for almost full list price or even list price itself, so that's cool for you!

Yeah, I'd think that too, as it was also mentioned in the Direct. But every webshop in the Netherlands states March 20 as the release date, so yeah...
 
i don’t plan on getting it as i’m perfectly content with the switch lite that i got yesterday aha

It's the 13th in NA (maybe just even the US, I'm not sure) only. It doesn't come packaged with the game the way the consoles released on the 20th do.
 
Don?t bother trying. If you do, the system will pick it up and request a cancellation on your order :)

Yea I'm just going to wait till friday since that's what it's currently showing. But what lucky ducks for the people that got it early lol.

It is because the switch console in the US is not being released with the game. Literally everywhere else it’s being released with the game. Unsure why it’s like that for the US

I'm okay with how they did it in the US. On average, it's less expensive (the system has a higher price outside the US to accommodate the bundled game), we can choose physical or digital, and we get our option of vendors with their various pre-order bonuses.
 
I?m curious to see how many of you have preordered the new switch!
I just managed to snag a preorder slot at my local Walmart so I am very excited!!
It seems like some people have actually already gotten their ACSwitch through Walmart.

Do you plan on getting it if you don?t have a preorder slot already?

Did your Walmart restock the switch today? I've been trying to snag one on multiple different websites, but unfortunately they always seem to be out of stock :( Anyways, i'm happy you found one!! I wish the best of luck to everyone who wants one <3
 
I already own a switch but I've been waiting on this AC themed switch since before the game was announced. I was hoping more than anything the special edition wouldn't be announced as a lite, that would have crushed me!

I was also honestly hoping there would be a lite version too!!! Figured there wouldn’t be a lite after the switch was announced though :(
 
I didn?t know about it?s existence until a few days after so I missed it. :(

Also I already have a Switch so idk if I should get another if the new switches get restocked.
 
I have the original switch... but I preordered the new horizons one too.
 
I did! And I'm preparing again, buying memory cards and cases and everything. I'm gonna have my switch decked OUT!
