For anyone who pre ordered online, did you pay the full amount or a deposit?

I’m looking at preordering the Mario Kart World bundle with a pro controller.

Thanks.

You can pay in full or by deposit online with EB.

I was looking at doing it a JB Hi-Fi. I might just need to go into the store myself tomorrow.

My pro controller doesn't charge. The orange light doesn't flash when charging. It also only works when it's connected to a USB charge but again once I take it off it's dead and won't connect to my console?

Do I need a new battery?

Apparently physical copies of Switch 2 Edition games like Metriod Prime 4,both Zelda games and Kirby are Switch 1 cartridges with a code to download the Switch 2 version.

That's scummy

I don't see an issue with that, it's just the game + the code to upgrade, vs buying the switch 1 version standalone.

What the issue will be though is whether the cost of getting them together is more than if you bought them separately. Additionally the actual cost itself.

Looking at JB for example, the Switch 2 version is $104, and the Switch 1 version is $79.

$25 for the upgrade is steep. May as well just put it towards an NSO sub (which is probably what they want anyway).

What are the best trade in deals?

So far, looks like JB and EB are both around $120-$150 for a switch 1 trade in, which gets me just over one switch 2 game lol.

FYI you can get a quote from JB HI FI and trade consoles in to them. Offering for a Switch OLED is $190. $60 more than EB Games.
