Current Events > Should I buy a Switch from Amazon?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Free SD card and a 20 dollar online voucher for prime day. >_>

I'm weary of ordering a console through the mail though. Especially because I live in apartments. What if it gets stolen or beaten up while being delivered?

Check if there is an Amazon locker near you.

Probably the best deal you will get in a while. UPS might be able to hook you up with a drop off location

I mean that's a risk you take with ordering anything online. I personally have not had anything go wrong ordering online, and one of my recent purchases was a 43'' TV.

But yeah get it refunded if it's even scratched

Yeah, at least look into Amazon locker.

I did have Amazon stuff stolen once or twice when I was in an apartment, Amazon was super awesome about just resending it will no questions asked, but I guess your mileage will vary on that.

I just started having stuff sent to my parents' address after that, so I dunno, if you have someone who lives in a house or better place where theft is less likely maybe you could go that route.

It's likely the best deal on a Switch you'll see any time soon.

EDIT: But they package stuff well and everything--so I wouldn't worry about it getting beat up in transit. Maybe record yourself opening it just in case and I'm sure they'd refund or send a new one or whatever.

I order online all the time, but not usually anything over a hundred bucks, and certainly not sensitive electronics either.

I get like board games and books and shit.

I mean those three games could feasibly get you to December when Smash comes out

Maybe BotW if you didn't play it on Wii U

Oooh, Valerian is on Prime Video. I always wanted to see that but refused to pay money in a theater.

Sadly I've played a ton of the ports on the Wii U already, including BotW.

I am interested in the new Smash though, as well as the new Metroid. And I've never played any of the Bayonettas, and there's a collection of them on the Switch, right?

Awwwww yeah they have all the Indiana Jones.

I know what I'm doing this weekend.

Yeah it's not terrible but I would have been upset if I had paid money to watch it.

Damn are you prepared all three games on the switch!

lol I know.

I've hated on the system for a long time, but I knew I'd get it eventually because yeah there are some Nintendo exclusives that I will of course want to play. But yeah it's pretty bare bones at the moment for someone who owns a Wii U.

Don't know about the first one, but Bayonetta 2 is a solid game.

i have about 6 sets to go (about the end of January i should be done with lego dimensions) the most costly is midway arcade i'm going to have to get that one last.
