Not getting a bundle. Best Buy is sold out.

Got one from Target but it won't arrive until the following week. Lame.

Zelda is coming to WiiU so I'll probably wait on the Switch and see how Mario Odyssey looks.

I watched the Mario Odyssey footage this morning, I gotta say it looks like a huuuuge whiff to me. Half the fun with Mario is the world they create!

But Zelda, Splatoon 2, and the updated Mario Kart all look like a blast. I'm not getting this any time soon, but I'll be very envious of those who do.

Yeah I'm not too happy about a more open world, sandbox style 3d mario. I thought Super Mario 3D World was great because it kept the same basic world design as classic mario games.

There hasn't been a open level based Mario game since Sunshine. I'm pumped. The real world level looks kind of odd but intriguing.

I'm buying this for the portability. I can always cancel the pre-order if I change my mind.

Also, let's talk about how awesome Zelda looks.

I audibally cheered when the voice acting started.

Have you played that mordor game? That was a lot of fun.

Until dawn was fun too, but it's definitely better with people. You're basically playing a movie.

Yeah, I beat Mordor awhile back. I think I'm going to play through Until Dawn since we will be iced in this weekend.

Let's hope for a Super Mario Maker Deluxe Version to be announced at E3.

I would assume so. Knowing Nintendo's history with their online infrastructure I wouldn't count on a flawless downloading experience on day one.

yeah that's what i'm worried about

amazon's pre order of the game says they won't ship until 3/31 so i'm holding off for now
