Like, some kind of loophole I can go through?

I guess I've never pre-ordered a Switch game before more than a week before release.

couldn't you just buy an eshop card now and redeem it, then preorder the game with the eshop funds?

Do they not bill you right away? I thought they did even if it was a preorder, but maybe I never preordered far enough in advance.

The points card method should work as long as I don't accidentally spend the points on something else.

No charge until 7 days prior to release it says.

I'm guessing they want to use some points that are about to expire, or something like that

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

Used to work that way until refund laws around the world called them out on it iirc.

So yeah, as others have said, using points cards is probably the way to go.

No, what's cheap is nature, making bears so much more dangerous than I. So I evened the playing field. With a door.
