[mliolukiye]

Woah, so there's a total of 144 color combinations you can customise.

No price release because max soft trying to justify to Nintendo charging us 700+

I Super Super highly suspect this unfortunately

 

[Cleaver]

Or Singapore is not a launch country.

let's recap


unless we are tagged with Hong Kong.

" The system will launch first in the US, Japan, parts of Europe including the UK, Australia, Canada, Hong Kong and several other countries. "

Got say several other countries

Will online stores be region-free or just cartridges?

The Nintendo Switch system is not region locked, but we recommend that players buy games within their region to ensure full service and support. The user will access the Nintendo eShop that corresponds to the country identified in their Nintendo Account. (Up to eight user accounts can be created on a single Nintendo Switch system.)

Sounds like what sony is doing on the PSN, still an improvement over the Wii U

 

[mliolukiye]

If SGD$700+, really jiak sai. It's too expensive for me, considering I'm only interested in Zelda for now. If that's the price, I'll either get it via other cheaper means or just wait.

 

[tremor]

If $700 and above, many preorders will be cancelled. Lol. Maxsoft can Jiak sai.

actually it can go both ways. MaxSoft or the shop themselves.

high demand = high price. shops are not bounded by Nintendo to sell at MSRP. tats why game prices can vary across shops.

if we are tagged to HK pricing. 430SGD. good price? still cheaper than my first PS3

Hopefully those deciding on the local Switch price is reading this. Just curious, what's the "jiak sai" threshold for you guys? I hope it's below SGD $500.

430 is good price since US is 299.99

 

[Swordsman]

max 500 sgd. That's my threshold for the console.

I'm expecting 500+ for console, so Console+Zelda=max SGD $600.

I don't mind waiting as I have other games on 3DS, PS4, PS3. Not a die die must play on Day 1.

Let's hope for a 400++, they earn a bit, we happy a bit.

 

[squeex]

I'm guessing that it'll be close to 500sgd for the console over here, Nintendo consoles by maxsoft always seem to be priced in a way that makes them cheaper to buy off amazon...

 

[tremor]

I'm guessing either $459 (wish) or $499.

 

[TrueBeliever_jh]

for context
http://www.apple.com/sg/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-mini-2

iPad Mini 2 32GB = 398SGD

so for sure will be more ex than that.

anyone got Wii U starting price here in Singapore? or no one cared?
