Okay so it’s a real shame I can only pre order with certain game bundles. I either want just the console on its own or with Animal Crossing as a bundle but for some reason I can’t pre order those 😢 Have to say though very quick email and alert from this site, I only checked Nintendo half hour ago!
guest707408 6/8/2020 3:36:
Bro i litterly want the same thing
leat89 6/8/2020 3:59:
Are you going to go for it with another game or wait it out? I’m debating to just pre order with Zelda. 🤔
archangel 6/8/2020 4:12:
I pre-ordered the bundle with Zelda for my kids....
guest707408 6/8/2020 4:23:
Ill wait it out because they are all coming back into stock on the 15th since shops are opening
leat89 6/8/2020 4:26:
Oh good point!
simon9732 6/8/2020 4:35:
That just means that people will go to the shops and then they will sell out of the shops. Where have u heard that. Going by smyths. That's just coincidence
guest6975806/8/2020 4:12:
I dont understand how they can put more stock up when the've told me they dont have stock
DDDDDDDD
guest697580 6/8/2020 4:13:
Im sorry im just a little bit angry now lol
madness90 6/8/2020 4:16:
Based on how many they've made available and the fact their still taking orders right now, i expect they must have a boat load coming in? then again it's nintendo after all.
guest697580 6/8/2020 4:30:
It makes absolutely 0 sense, my order fromthe 1st is still on order placed yet they are taking more orders for dispatch from the 10th? Its just getting on my nerves to be honest. Ive already emailed them asking about the stock on the 10th
madness90 6/8/2020 4:32:
I feel you mate, that's why i cancelled mine on the 1st
guest689183 6/8/2020 6:44:
Exactly the same here. So frustrated. Emailed them today to ask where is it and got a standard reply, then my order changed from processing to order received. Have I gone backward in the queue?!
guest710194 6/8/2020 8:06:
Only thing I found on the website was Order Processing: Order has been placed and received by Nintendo. Submitted: Your order has been approved and is being prepared for shipping. Shipped: Your order has been shipped. Back-Ordered: This item is currently unavailable and will ship as soon as it is in stock. Most items will be back in stock and available for processing within 3-4 days. Please plan for one week processing for back-ordered items. Canceled: Your order has been canceled either by you or by Nintendo. Partial Ship: Part of your order has shipped and part of your order has not yet shipped. Items not yet shipped are usually back-ordered or pre-ordered items.

I ordered a mario oddysey bundle but I now realise it was probably pointless as there's no way that my order will be fulfilled. I better hope, I guess
guest697580 6/8/2020 4:32:
Just gotta hope for the best buddy. Its just all a mess if im honest
guest6644906/8/2020 4:59:
Just ordered a Mario oddesy bundle... it says it’s proscesing is this promising?
mickyfitz13 6/8/2020 5:01:
You'll know in 48 hours if your order is successful, it will remain processing until it goes through...
mickyfitz13 6/8/2020 5:01:
within 48 hours*
guest6975806/8/2020 5:21:
The fact the preorders havent been taken down yet is hopeful. That possibly means they have a lot of stock which is good for you guys
guest6644906/8/2020 5:35:
Cancled my order.. as I have been scammed before and was making me anxious I have had my conformation email to say it has been cancled.. and their is no money pending in the account.. does this mean they can not take my money now ?
madness90 6/8/2020 6:01:
I highly doubt Nintendo are scamming anyone, taking a while to get through orders sure but not scamming.
mickyfitz13 6/8/2020 6:31:
They won't take money out until it's been dispatched, it even says that in email "No funds will be taken from your account until the item is dispatched" word for word. From what I believe it happening is that you can make your order but you aren't guaranteed it'll go through because of the number of people ordering it, if they cancel it they won't take money from you (and wouldn't even do that until it's been shipped). There could be a holding on the account though, I'm not sure, but that will normally close off within a week. But to voice madness90, I really doubt Nintendo would be scamming anyone off, but it's down to yourself if you don't want to go through with the order...but again they are safe traders.
samdb16/8/2020 6:19:
My order from 1st June has just changed from “order processing” to “order placed”, what does this mean?
mickyfitz13 6/8/2020 6:27:
I imagine it's onto it's next stage and will be shipping soon...
simon9732 6/8/2020 6:50:
I received mine form the first of june.
guest697580 6/8/2020 7:24:
samdb1 if you get yours before mine im going to personally go to nintendo myself and slap the nearest customer service guy
guest697580 6/8/2020 8:49:
Also: order placed means they are waiting on stock so that they can send you your order. This is what they told me
guest7101946/8/2020 6:30:
How many have received from the first of June? Anyone had there’s cancelled? Iv placed an order today just wondering what my chances are of actually receiving
jessjohn 6/8/2020 7:25:
I ordered mine on the 1st and delivered today
guest710194 6/8/2020 8:03:
That was quick Iv ordered in the hope it comes before the 23rd if my order goes through
guest6443656/8/2020 6:53:
This must be one massive restock ^_^
simon9732 6/8/2020 6:54:
quite big
lamby20016/8/2020 6:59:
Hopefully everyone who pre orders gets one
guest6975806/8/2020 7:19:
Im really clinging on now that they got a massive restock coming through as I still have not had mine from the 1st June. If they dont send me one, they've got something against me !
simon9732 6/8/2020 7:41:
They don't do them in order. Not a first come first served basis.
voltz7788 6/8/2020 8:01:
How do they decide who they are going to dispatch their switches to first?
guest710194 6/8/2020 8:03:
I read on the website it was first come first served
guest697580 6/8/2020 8:03:
That sounds so stupid though. Absolutely shocking if they do it that way lol
guest697580 6/8/2020 8:39:
Im pretty sure it would be first come first served. It would be stupid otherwise.
tm33071 6/8/2020 8:57:
i ordered 2 for family on thursday last week and i got them today worst console ive had totally not worth the money i dont see why everone is so keen to get them?
guest644365 6/8/2020 9:12:
Then why did you get 2 of them? On what basis is it the worst console you've had? How many and which consoles have you "had"?
guest697580 6/8/2020 9:36:
I feel like its kinda hard to make a statement like that considering the console has done really well in sales and is well reviewed by a lot of people.
simon9732 6/8/2020 10:09
its just their opinion but I don't see how they can say its the worst console they have ever had when they have only just received it today. They have made their mind up within hours or receiving it.
guest644365 6/8/2020 10:15
They did not get 2, let alone any. This is a typical troll. Probably feels jealous and can't handle the situation! 
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:17
i actually got a few for me and my children on friday then 2 for family members so ive been on it all weekend mario odyssey,mario kart and donkey kong. i own ps4, xbox one x and nvidia shield the switch is just an empty tablet when on the home screen and the games are updated wii games, mario odyssey is mostly complete already.
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:23
Was also the ac versions i got wait and see when you get one.
guest644365 6/8/2020 10:24
Sure you did. Good for you and your "children"
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:26
wait and see.
simon9732 6/8/2020 10:27
well a lot of people are enjoying them. Well u don't have to use the switch as portable u can hook it up to youre tv. So u have a choice
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:30
I plug it them into my avr so i can get use out of my ceiling speakers but the switch doesnt have dolby atmos either.
guest697580 6/8/2020 10:31
you cant really judge the 'switch' itself from playing games. If you dont like those games, try other ones. there are plenty to try.
guest644365 6/8/2020 10:33
He doesn't have a Switch. What he does have is too much time on his hands, and very little useful to do with it.
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:37
why wouldnt I have a switch? its not that expensive.
guest697580 6/8/2020 10:40
£280-320? Id consider that a fair amount of money. You've got to tihnk to some people its like 1/3 of their salary. I do believe that you have one, but each to their own when it comes to opinions.
tj99 6/8/2020 10:41
TM you are not lying my friend. If you have a PS4 or Xbox you will be disappointed. You have to be a Mario fan to enjoy this. It's aimed for kids
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:45
just trying to advise that you might not be getting what you think, paid multiplayer with no voice chat nothing on the homescreen to do, not allowed any apps apart from a basic youtube app, tiny controllers when in docked mode and mostly ports of old games.
voltz7788 6/8/2020 10:47
tm33071 why would you expect the switch to support dolby atmos? Surround sound doesn't seem like the most important thing you would want in a console that is meant to play chill games like mario kart and stuff
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:49
TJ99 I like mario games especially all the snes games and mario 64 and 3d world on the wii u but odyssey is just far to easy.
tm33071 6/8/2020 10:52
Xbox one x, ps4 and shield pro have atmos and 4k and why not the switch?
voltz7788 6/8/2020 10:57
Because it isn't as important for a portable console. Although 4K and surround sound is nice, they never marketed that as a selling point for the console. The focus has always been flexibility (playing on TV, table top and handheld) + their unique line up of games. To be honest, you probably should have checked this stuff before buying two consoles.
madness90 6/8/2020 10:59
I have an xbox one x, ps4 and a gaming PC. Bought the switch for my Mrs and was blown away by it to be honest, so much so i ordered myself one. Zelda is a thing of beauty. It's all down to opinion.
tm33071 6/8/2020 11:02
ok i take your point on the 4k and surround but any of the unique line up of games have already been out on the wii u?
tm33071 6/8/2020 11:04
I also have gaming pc's but you cant really compare that to a £280 pound console.
voltz7788 6/8/2020 11:07
To be fair, I've never played any of the games extensively but Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a great example. I think the switch is even more attractive for people who have never owned a Wii U. That's the case with me. The jump from Mario Kart Wii to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is large enough of a jump to consider it it's own separate game rather than just an upgrade. I do see your point though if you've had a Wii U, especially with games like Mario Kart cause they are literally the same game.
tm33071 6/8/2020 11:08
also if you have pc, xbox one x, ps4 why would the switch blow you away?
tm33071 6/8/2020 11:10
Blew away by a zelda game that was on wii u how many years ago?
madness90 6/8/2020 11:35
Never owned a wii U, brother had a Wii back in the day. Last Nintendo I owned was a GameCube which was a pretty decent console tbf. I was probably blown away by Zelda due to last one I played being on the GameCube so it's come a long way since then. As I said, it's a matter of opinion, if yours is that it's not great that's fine but I personally think it's unique and quite nice to have. Especially at those times you have to go places for work etc and you can play on the move.
chewbacco6/9/2020 3:19:
Ordered on 1st June, only todays switched from processing to order placed. Anyone have any clue how long this might take?
voltz7788 6/9/2020 8:32:
Not sure to be honest, maybe try contacting Nintendo and see what they say.
m44ffw 6/9/2020 9:04:
Mine swapped to this status over the weekend. Nintendo told me they didn’t have any stock to allocate to my order. Hopefully in with the shipment being dispatched tomorrow that went into preorder yesterday, they have enough to cover off the orders from the 1st
guest6278586/9/2020 10:26
Arriving today Looking forward to going on a village scavenger hunt when it's been delivered by MyHermes.
samdb1 6/9/2020 11:12
when did you order yours?
guest627858 6/9/2020 11:46
June 1st. Ring Fit Bundle
guest6703876/9/2020 10:32
Ordered on monday the first and haven't got anything, the customer service is all robots and I can't manage to get anywhere
samdb1 6/9/2020 11:11
exactly the same with me, been sending messages but the reply’s are completely generic and do not answer my questions
guest697580 6/9/2020 12:00
I can relate to you guys on a deep level. I actually asked them "does this mean you are getting stock soon since you pre-orders are coming through from the 10th?" and got an a automated response saying "we are working hard to get your order sorted" basically lol
guest6278586/9/2020 1:17:
Arrived and it's actually grey! So happy! Good luck everybody
guest6740676/9/2020 1:41:
The fitness ring set I ordered on June 1st arrived today. Thanks to stockinformer, this is really a very useful platform! Ended my long wait, I hope everyone who ordered can get it as soon as possible. My Nintendo account is SW-5073-2541-2538, I hope to meet you in the game world.
lamby20016/9/2020 1:47:
If i cancel a pre order is it guaranteed to be cancelled or is there a chance it won't be?
guest7101946/9/2020 2:07:
Has anyone managed to have there order cancelled? I ordered one from Nintendo yesterday but have just managed to buy a garnteed one from amazon, my order is still in “processing” when I click to cancel its saying there’s no items to cancel
lamby2001 6/9/2020 2:10:
I cancelled mine and it says cancelled and i had an email confirming it after 15 minutes
guest710194 6/9/2020 2:11:
Mine keeps saying no items to cancel I only pre ordered yesterday
guest6975806/9/2020 2:55:
Finally. Some actual clarity for my order from the 1st. This is all I have asked for. For anyone else waiting for an order from the 1st. Here is your answer. They are expecting stock, which is possibly tomorrow. Hopefully, that means it will be dispatched towards the end of the week. Now I can stop bugging them and leave them alone as I really felt like i was getting annoying lol! I am truly sorry for the experience you have faced with the delay in regards to your order, we are working to get this sent as soon as possible, we are expecting more stock and as soon as we have this we will get this dispatched out to you and you will be notified and provided with the tracking information.
guest710194 6/9/2020 2:59:
Has your order changed from processing
guest697580 6/9/2020 3:04:
I ordered on the 1st. Its been order placed for around a week now
guest719147 6/11/2020 10:43
I ordered on the 8th. Mine's still in processing. I'm reluctant to cancel the order incase it does get dispatched, but very annoying that it's so mysteriously organised.
guest7101946/9/2020 4:53:
So messaged them to ask them when will I know if stock has been allocated as Iv sourced elsewhere and would need to cancel if I havnt already been allocated one to receive this reply Thank you for getting in touch about your order. After checking this I can see your order is in the warehouse stage, please be advised that once this dispatches you should receive an email to confirm this. I apologise for the delay in this. What does this mean exactly? It doesn’t really answer the question if I have been allocated one or not
elizawantsaanimalcrossingswitch 6/10/2020 2:47:
it means you've got one coming i think
guest6975806/9/2020 5:35:
Finally, my order is back in processing which possibly means it is gonig towards the dispatch stage? Maybe its in the warehouse stage! (this is in regards to my order from the 1st)
guest710194 6/9/2020 7:46:
What does the warehouse stage mean? Iv had a email saying I can’t cancel (pre ordered yesterday) as it’s in the warehouse stage
guest697580 6/9/2020 8:06:
That means that they are probably planning for dispatch. Which if correct will be dispatched tomorrow. Itsquite likely that you got your hands on one.
guest710194 6/9/2020 8:52:
thank you for the reply fingers crossed yours looks promising aswell
guest697580 6/9/2020 11:06
No worries. Hope you get lucky!
guest6461796/9/2020 7:51:
I have received my switch so how can I stop the email inform?
administrator 6/9/2020 7:58:
Do you mean how to stop our stock alert emails? Go to My Profile or click the Unsubscribe link on any email from us.
guest7086906/10/2020 7:20:
Ordered mine on Monday when the notifications came out, Nintendo had my money pending straight away and it had left my account yesterday. It’s now Wednesday 10th and my order still says ‘waiting dispatch’ :-/ Why did they take my money when they say they don’t do that until the switch is dispatching?
voltz7788 6/10/2020 7:45:
Did you try contacting them?
guest708690 6/10/2020 9:50:
Yup. 2 automated reply's saying ‘we are working our way through them’ and ‘your order is in the warehouse stage’ No explanation to why they have held my money for 2 days without dispatch l.
voltz7788 6/10/2020 12:14
Yeah not sure why they did that, they did that for me too. I'm pretty sure that the switches are being dispatched today tho (that's what it said on the website) so I wouldn't worry too much. If you don't get a confirmation email by the end of the day then I would drop them another email.
guest708690 6/10/2020 3:44:
I can’t believe people are still waiting from the 1st! Need to remember we’re in a pandemic and it’s not essential, but still annoying!
guest7076736/10/2020 8:20:
I ordered a grey bundle on Monday 8th and my status has now changed from ‘processing’ to ‘order placed’ this morning. Guess I have gone backwards in the queue.
m44ffw 6/10/2020 9:06:
My order from the 1st is still in Order Placed. I don’t think Nintendo is playing fair at the moment with their pre-orders so suggest you keep an eye out elsewhere. I missed out at my local Argos twice with a grey one but won’t miss out on a third if they become available again
guest710194 6/11/2020 8:20:
Have you had yours dispatched now?
guest7101946/10/2020 9:22:
Anyone had any updates on there orders from the 8th yet?
guest629933 6/10/2020 9:58:
The money has just been taken out of my account and it says 'awaiting dispatch'
nil 6/10/2020 9:59:
Im still waiting as they said dispatching on 10th. My order shows processing since 8th june 🤷🏼♀️
guest666071 6/10/2020 10:13
Same here - money has been taken from my bank account and says its 'awaiting dispatch' on the order details!
elizawantsaanimalcrossingswitch 6/10/2020 10:30
if you click on your active order it should show you a picture of your bundle and then 'awaiting dispatch' from what i can tell from the email i got if they've taken the money you have one coming. heres the email i got. ''Thanks for getting in contact with Nintendo. After checking your order I can see that this is currently being processed for dispatch by our warehouse team and this will be on the way to you shortly. Once this has left our warehouse you will be sent a further email confirmation that will also contain your tracking reference for your order. If you require any further information or assistance, please feel free to contact a member of our support team via your account. Kind Regards, David''
elizawantsaanimalcrossingswitch 6/10/2020 10:31
if i just click on active orders it says processing but clicking on my actual order shows waiting dispatch and its been like that since the 8th. if it doesn't ship today they're getting another email.
guest710194 6/10/2020 10:43
If the money has been taken then it would seem to be on the way Mine was paid via PayPal So can’t check but told me yesterday mine was at the warehouse stage what ever that is
mickyfitz13 6/10/2020 11:09
Mine updated from order processing to order placed...dunno what that means...
guest710194 6/10/2020 2:43:
I believe that means it probably waiting for the next batch
mickyfitz13 6/10/2020 5:21:
Great, will just have to wait...
guest710194 6/10/2020 6:34:
