Precedence has Nintendo dropping games at midnight EST. Shouldn't be any different here.
I'm gonna adjust my sleep schedule a bit because I know once I start playing it will be hard for me to stop. Kinda turn Friday night into a morning w/ some breakfast and coffee. It's gonna be awesome. XD

Yeah, Splatoon 2 was released at midnight and the eShop chugged for about 45 minutes trying to deal with the increased activity. Kinda expecting the same with Odyssey.
Fridays at work tend to be the slower days, with a big chunk of free time near the end of the day. Having Mario would have been rad, but eh. I can wait till I get home.

I work Sun-Thurs so my "weekend" is basically just all Mario all the time.

I accidentally clicked on a link to the Switch subreddit despite being on media blackout. Thankfully posts complaining about spoiler posts had pushed most of the actual spoilers off the front page. Crisis averted.

I haven't been this excited for a Mario game in a long time. I think it 's because my daughter is 9 now and she is old enough to actually appreciate it with me. Definitely going to pick up a hard copy of the game. Nintendo is the one and only game company I still feel nostalgic enough about physical media to buy it. Every where else I'm full digital at this point.
I did the Amazon preorder, so I assume it SHOULD arrive on Friday while I'm at work.
Or it won't come and they'll give me some credit, which I hear is SOP these days with Amazon.
It depends on where you live. I order every one of the MANY games I buy on Amazon for release and have for years. I have only once not received a game when I was supposed to and that was a few years ago. And wasn't even a big title. So for big titles in huge supply it's less likely to be an issue. But again depends where you are. If you don't have a track record of the issues you are most likely fine.

To be fair everything surrounding Amazon and video games has started sucking a bit more just in the last few months.

Yeah, I didn't used to hear about problems until recently. So who knows?
I recently took a ton of old 360 and Wii game in for trade to support my new Switch habit, so I have $190 credit at the locally owned game store. They assured me they will have all the copies of Mario so I can swing by on my lunch break.

Instead I just opted to preorder from the EB that's just a 5 minute walk away.

Yeah, Amazon's started to get very spotty with delivering games on release days now. Here's hoping.

Pre-ordering on the eShop hasn't been implemented, no.

You have to be in the first 20 in line.
You'll suck it up like we all do because they are masters in game design.

I wonder if the shop will crash.
It crashed for Splatoon 2, so there’s a good chance it will for Mario.
