    The ugliest Switch is sure coming down in price quickly?

    • +9

      Not ugly if you manage to convince yourself it’s the limited edition Spider-Man version lol

    • +4

      It’s been called ugly, pug ugly, fugly, pug fugly, but never ugly ugly

  • Was expected. All stores are flooded with this edition.

    • Price can only drop harder if they announce a pro switch tomorrow lol

      • It has more to do with the fact that Nintendo expected this to sell better, but most retailers have plenty of stock available.

        Even the scalpers didn't want it.

        • Scalpers don't want it because the second hand switch market is terrible right now.

          They are still struggling to sell their AC consoles and theres a combination of everyone got a switch due to covid so market is flooded as well as an inevitable possibility of a switch pro.

          • @freoleo: everyone has a switch and since there is litterally no technolgical difference except a few more hours of battery, a colour change isn't enough for most people.

  • +1

    Yellow joy con sticks would have made a huge difference IMO.

    • 100% and you could have done a blue strip at the bottom. Either way I still think it's the best looking switch since the Animal Crossing Edition. The Neon is getting tired.

      • +3

        The only correct thing in this comment is the AC edition is the best one hands down.

      • I actually like the Mario one quite a bit too

    • Yellow and blue?
      They already have that. The west coast eagles.. I mean fortnite edition.

      • Up the Coasters!

    everybody knows red colour makes it go faster

    • i thought it was black… (i.e black iphones run faster…)

      • Red = Speed
        Blue = Cool
        Green = Eco mode

    Mario’s colour scheme has been red and blue since the late 1980’s, a blue and red coloured Mario themed console makes sense. Is the Ozbargain outrage over the colour combination or the shaded of blue and red? I don’t get the hate.

    • +9

      outrage, hate

      I don't hate it because it's Mario's colour scheme. I intensely dislike it because it's not aesthetically pleasing.

      • You don’t find an entirely red console pleasing? What are your thoughts on the mixed up neon one, and is the plain gray aesthetically pleasing?

        I’m legit curious what people think and why the dislike over a completely red console.

    • +1

      I think the issue is that the joycons and the main body are both red, so if you're playing handheld it's just one big red console not red and blue.

      Could easily have been coloured different to make it look way more appealing.

      Probably..

      • Agreed. It's good but still too red. Needed more blue in there. And gold joy cons could have been nice too

  • is new switch coming out???????

    if you can get this instead go for it
    Nintendo Switch – $299 (500 at 12pm and 500 at 2pm Tuesday) - ebay plus members only

    • +5

      This never works

      • @TimApple - Bought one from eBay for $299 lol

  • Bought one for $449 a few weeks ago… Any chance Amazon would return me the difference, or should I go get this one and return the other one?

    • Neither. Return won't be free. Not worth the time.

      • It says free return here on my Amazon past orders time though.

        • It's dependent on why you are returning. Change of mind you pay postage.

    • +1

      Just double down, buy a second one and sell the other one for RRP.

    • -2

      If the current price becomes $549, will you pay Amazon the $100 difference?

    • +3

      You can go on chat and ask them if they could credit the diff. Sometimes they do credit rather than refund, which is still fine by me.

      • +7

        I've done this before for a $12 price drop, and they basically said, sorry we're unable to give a credit for a price difference, here's a $15 credit for the inconvenience.

      • Last time I did that - they said absolutely not

        So I returned it (cost me $17) and bought it again (27" Monitor)

  • Is this console limited edition or anything?

    • Not labelled as limited edition, though non- regular colours tend to be fairly limited in stock regardless.

  • Harvey Norman have 500 Days Interest Free on Computer Products purchases over $425, if you have a GEM Visa or Go Mastercard you can grab this and a $38 game and pay off over 500 days

    • doesnt gem and go have monthly fees?

      • $5

      • My GEM has an annual fee, but I pay it if I do or don’t use it. I don’t have any monthly fees

  • Perhaps they overproduced this edition thinking it would sell like hot cakes. Well they got their prediction wrong..

  • +1

    95+ votes? Is the red and blue colour really worth $99 compared to the ebay deal today?

    • +2

      how fast did the ebay one get sold out?

      • not that fast. within a couple minutes as expected.

    • Without the joy con grip (which collects dust as no one uses it) It's literally 100% all RED

      • no one uses it

        That's a bold statement, from a certain (un)social bubble, with zero research.

    • +1

      So, how's the availability on ebay?

      Because this deal seems pretty a no-fuss experience.

    • You have to have paid to join eBay plus to participate in that

    • Travel case and screen protector included in Mario edition

  • showing 448 on both sites.

  • Currently showing in stock for $398, might be limited stock so get in quick if you were chasing one
