Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, I find anybody who's gotten to switch yet. Oh
I meant to drive by best Buy. I wanted to
see it.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Yeah, on the overnight news, the lines were ridiculous, ridiculous
with midnight right, yeah, midnight release.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I don't know if everybody.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
I think they said in some places there were a
ton of midnight releases. I think they said there were
some places where they weren't opening early, that they were
just opening at their regular time. I don't know which stores,
so I don't know what time they opened, but that
they weren't doing midnight. A lot of places did midnight openings.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
So yeah, there's got to be a few out there
that are sitting pretty with their brand new switch too,
they believe, Kristen, Will you do me a favor?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Will you find me somebody who has already gotten their
switch to?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
By the way, where's Jonesy in this?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Wasn't he all?
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:58):
So he wasn't trying to get one? And like because
I was, I was reading about somebody who pre ordered. Well,
let me finish one thought at a time, Christian, will
you see if you can find me somebody who either
A got the switch switched to B was camped out,
maybe they did get one, maybe they didn't, or is
currently camping. I got to assume every place is opened
(01:20):
already eight six six to Elliott eight six six two
three five five four six eight.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
So anybody who either.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Got one already camped out and did or didn't, I
don't know if you got one or not or is
currently camped out.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Also didn't. I read though some of the people who
pre ordered, like you said, Jonesy pre ordered, but I was.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I read a story yesterday that people who had pre ordered,
some people were told they won't get it till like
June eleventh.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
I saw some reporting that the pre orders are being
canceled this week. Why I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Oh, not canceled, but just the wait, there's being canceled.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
The orders. People were telling various blogs their order was
canceled this week.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Why would that be the case?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
They overestimate how many units they were going to have.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
I thought, oh, available, Well, wouldn't you rather them say hey,
it'll be July fifth than just cancel you?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Absolutely, yes, But at the same time you'd be pretty angry.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Oh you'd be furious, no matter what, you'd be furious.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
But at least you know it's coming as opposed to
it just got canceled.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Go show your d in the dirt at the retail stores?
How many switch tos did they have available?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
And that's the part.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
I don't know how they were doing it because one
of the stores that they showed on the new Overnight news,
there had to be fifty people, one hundred people that
were camped out, like the line was long.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I didn't count everybody.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
There's no way the store had that many right now.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
They had a sign up that said we have ten but.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Why would you be one hundredth of the line.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
No, no, no, But my question is were they going
to do one of those things like remember people used
to camp out for tickets, and let's say they started
giving out numbers starting with one, and it would go
through three hundred. Well then they would say the line
begins with and they would draw a number, so you
didn't know. That's how they prevented you from getting their
(03:20):
six months ahead of time, which there was a jackass
on the news who has been camped out in front
of a store for six months? Well it was two
months and it's Nintendo New York. That's right, sixty days,
which is still insane.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yes, that they talked to a couple of people in
that line who said being unemployed has never been so great.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Amen?
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Because they had no amendments. Yeah, sure, I'm assuming he
got one. They weren't going to do a number raffle
at eleven fifty nine?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Probably not. Where am I going mine? Eight?
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (03:55):

Speaker 1 (04:03):

Speaker 3 (04:05):
There are you?
Speaker 1 (04:06):

Speaker 6 (04:09):

Speaker 7 (04:10):

Speaker 1 (04:19):
And what time did they open? Eight?
Speaker 6 (04:21):
Eight o'clock?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Was there a lot of people there?
Speaker 7 (04:26):
I was number twenty three when I got there at
some forty five they had forty in stock?
Speaker 1 (04:31):
So you got one?
Speaker 6 (04:33):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (04:33):
They did?
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
How is it?
Speaker 3 (04:34):

Speaker 7 (04:36):

Speaker 1 (04:38):
The uh oh dude, come on? It makes surprise?
Speaker 6 (04:42):

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Oh I hope he's not listening. Well, I hope he is.
I hope everybody listens. The wait, So when when is
he going to get it?
Speaker 7 (04:50):
As soon as he gets home from school?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
There you go, very good, very good.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Good for you, and so it wasn't that isn't that
weird that it just wasn't that crowded where you were.
Speaker 7 (05:00):
Yeah, I'm surprised. I actually went on the app. I
got a notification this morning saying that I was in
the stock So I just, you know, figured just why
not just you know, head to the store and see
what it was like. I thought people were gonna camp out,
to be honest.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I mean, based on all this, all the hype and
everything you saw, and I mean again, I just saw
stuff overnight.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
It looks like people were camping all over the place.
Speaker 7 (05:22):
Yeah, I got lucky.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Good for you, Good for you, dude. Congratulations.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Can I can I ask this? And this is based
on one phone call? Is it gonna be a flop?
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I thought based on based on lawn phone calls? Gonna
be massive?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I read a report would be the second biggest launch
by Nintendo, second biggest, second biggest launch. They're expecting to
move fifteen million units.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
For the launch.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Do you know what the biggest launch ever was? I do?
I do, But you're not gonna tell us.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You tell me.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
The previous switch, Diane, Seriously, no, actually, you know what
the previous switch. Now that you bring it up, I
gotta find it. The previous switch wasn't big at launch.
Launch is considered the first quarter of sales. Now afterwards
(06:23):
it really took off, So.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
It wasn't hard to get a switch when they first
came out.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Oh you know what, I take that back. It did
very well. It did very well. It was the third
biggest launch for Nintendo.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Oh so can we even trust what you tell us now? Yes,
yes you can, because I'm looking right at it. Damn it? Forbes,
remember this messed up your list with a soprano?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yes, because they had their numbers wrong. I'm sorry, Kristin.
Where am I going? Line three? Hard to get there
with everybody guard piling? Hi Elliott the morning?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Hey Elliott, what's up? TROI did you get a switch?
Speaker 6 (07:03):

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Where did you camp?
Speaker 6 (07:09):
Well?

I camp last night at best Buy. There must have
been two hundred and fifty people there. I didn't make
the cutoffs. So I went to Walmart and they were like,
come back tomorrow at six So I did and got
at Walmart and Leifberg.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
So wait when you got to So I understand you
were in line at best Buy? Right, that I totally

hundred and fifty people when you got to Walmart. How
many people were at Walmart?
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Not many.
Speaker 8 (07:38):
There were three people in front of me, and then
maybe five or six people showed up right at six
behind me.
Speaker 3 (07:45):

it is there, it is.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
We U was the bust.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
As a matter of fact, you know, it only sold
in its lifetime. In its lifetime, it only sold thirteen
point five million.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
And they're thinking switch to in the first quarters in fifteen.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Wow, they they they say WEU.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Was its worst flop, Nintendo's worst flop.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Jones that's checked in.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
By the way, did he get his tell him to
go to uh tell him to go to Short Pump?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
He said, thank you? Sure, a crying Mario gift. I
wish I had my switch to, but my target pre
order is coming until next week. Next week, I hear
you can walk in at nine thirty and get one
on your break and there's still seven left. So it
is it not? Is there a big air out of
(10:15):
the tires today? But I'm looking at photos from game
stops that did allow people to get in line. There's
lines hundreds of yes long. So was Target just not
thought to maybe get as many? So people did not
consider it as an option.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I don't know line six. Thank you, Kristin Hi Yelli.

Speaker 5 (12:23):
So it sounds like like many people. My husband went
to Target. In fact, he might still be there. He
sent me a picture like fifteen minutes ago and it
was a shelf full of switch toos.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Target in the area. Which target is he Hi and Alexandria. Yeah, no,
exactly where that is yep.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
So if anyone wants to switch too. My husband had
one on pre order from Walmart, but he's kind of
insane and couldn't wait until tomorrow, so he decided to
go to the Target to see if they were there.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
That's awesome, Hey tell him to pick one up for
Jones and then he can price guage Jones because Jones
doesn't want.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
To a week.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
All right, very good, very good, Thank you, ma'am, thank you.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Wow Um guy at the Target and Frederick they had
them readily available this morning. So Target seems like it
was the place to go. Or is still did they
not do a midnight thing? Is that why? Maybe that
had you had to wait until eight? I mean, it
sounds likes it sounds like it no location has opened up.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I don't think well, I can't say none, but it
sounds like that's the case.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Best selling Nintendo system Oh I forgot we were doing this.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Yeah, over the course of his lifetime. Not his, but
it's lifetime lifetime.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Who ds Oh never played it?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
One hundred and fifty four million units. It's not bad,
isn't that nuts?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Is that handheld?
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I never played it. I told you I'm not a
Nintendo Family.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Yeah, it is handheld right now, Diane.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
But I thought we were doing launch. Oh, I forgot.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
I've got everything.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Oh you have a spreadsheet?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Well yeah, I mean I built a deck cool dark?
Where's the game Boy? Game Boy had in the bathroom
with Scott collecting particles? Game Boy Advance came out big.
(14:25):
That came out with eighteen point one million. Never played it,
that's the one. You've definitely played a game Boy. I
played a game Boy, not a game Boy Advance.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
No, I didn't. I maybe I have I don't know.
You know what's weird? Nintendo sixty four only sold five million.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
For the launch. Yeah, what was it? Game Boy Launch?
Are you ready for this? This?
Speaker 3 (14:50):
This was the one that was interesting to me.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
So game Boy Advance the launch eighteen point one million.
That was the launch for game Boy Advance eighteen point
one million.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
What was it for lifetime?
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Oh? Lifetime eighty one, so.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
A great launch, but middle of the pack for Lifeziber.
That's the fifth best selling of all time. How many
devices are there than I have? Like ten, twelve?
Speaker 2 (15:16):
No, there's the thirty five million of them. But again,
game Boy Advance eighteen million. You know what the original
game Boy sold at launch? Three point nine?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
What year was that? Released?
Speaker 2 (15:36):
April of nineteen eighty nine into September of nineteen ninety
The legend of game Boy here, I have the whole legend, dork,
the legend of game Boys. It was an instant smash
thanks to the high stakes acquisition of Tetris, but while
its launch was healthy for the time, it didn't begin
(15:56):
to indicate yes, what Nintendo's defining handheld would achieve. Sales
in the first year were just three percent of what
it would go on to sell across game Boy and
game Boy Color.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
How many game Boys were there?
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Well, I know there was game Boy, game Boy Advance,
game Boy Color. I mean, do I have to do
all of them? I gave you three. I don't know
where am I going. Kristen Wine, what hi Elliot the morning?
Speaker 6 (16:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Hey you get your switch yet?
Speaker 6 (16:34):
Yeah? Yeah, I got it last night. I mest by.
Speaker 9 (16:38):
I also have my old switch stolen from me at
some point during the night.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Wait a minute, while you while you were waiting in
line to get your new switch, someone stole your old switch.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Yeah, it was sitting in my car in a bag,
and they took a laptop that I had in there too.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Oh no, dude, that's dick.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
Did they bust a.
Speaker 6 (17:02):
No?
Speaker 9 (17:02):
No, I guess I didn't lock the car. I had
my switch like when I was waiting in line, and
then I went and put it back in my car
and I got to didn't lock my car after that,
And there's three brand new laptops sitting in my car
and they took one of them, and they took the
bag that had my switch in it.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Dude, I'm sorry. That sucks, bro, Yeah.
Speaker 9 (17:23):
It sucks. But but before that, I had gone a
game stop and I was two people too late to
prepay for one and buy one. So then I went
to best Buy and waited in that line. I got
my switch, though.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yeah, but I feel bad that you got ripped off.
That's not good. People got to be nice to each other.
You've already asked of that. Yeah, and you know what,
it's not hard to do. It's not hard to be kind.
Speaker 9 (17:53):
Yeah, it's I know, I don't get it. I had
so much fun waiting in that line too, like everybody
was so friendly, like we oh, we were sitting there
like joking and talking the entire night fall the way
up till the midnight launch, and.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
And probably one of those jokesters went over and we're like,
watch me just rip you off.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Dude, that sucks.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I'm sorry. You know what, let me get your shirt.
Hold on one second. That should make you feel better.
Hold on one second, form please, yes time.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Well it's Jones again. Oh yeah, Oh, I know what
Jones doesn't have? He said, Did Elliot say Nintendo DS?
I did, yes, And then he really just wanted to
show off a photo. I believe he has three of them, oh,
dear god, and one cat oh in the picture. I
know what he doesn't have?
Speaker 3 (18:38):
One up?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Can you ask Jones? Is Nintendo his company?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Like?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Is that does he has? He owned every system Nintendo's
ever put out? I would bet yes, he is definitely
Nintendo guy. Wasn't he just down at Universal? He was
down in the world.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
And he bought a a some kind of wood would well? Yeah, well,
he said he I got would but he no, he
bought some kind of I don't know what it is,
but some kind of wooden decorative piece that's got some
character's face on it and brought it back like it's bowser.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
That's right. And he got offended when I said the
guy from Shannana.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Right, that's okay, I said the mayor.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Oh, so he got this big crest, yes for his house? Yes?
Speaker 2 (19:36):
And I know he got it home in a new
suitcase that he had to buy because of all the
stuff he bought.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I swear to.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
God he bought a suitcase to get all of it.
He even he was like, I spent too much money,
And I said how much did the wood cost if
it caught?
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Diane, how much would Scott spend on that?
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Before? You were like, Scott, come on?
Speaker 1 (20:01):
So what else? Did he buy a lot of T shirts?
He does have quite a few Nintendo themed shirts wrestling.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Doesn't he? Diane? Tones?
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Did he get any of the hats the I don't know.
Can Jones call real quick? By the way, I don't.
Can we call out yet? Or is that got fixed?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Oh? I fixed that yesterday? Called Bennett that's right, that's right.
I called Bennett. He was with Captain Jane Way.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Did he get the Mario gloves?
Speaker 3 (20:28):
The I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
I do know he did have to buy in suitcase
to get everything home.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Do they have none? All over print? Te's for sale,
not for Jones. Look at these they're all huge, huge prints.
Did he put on a toad plush hat in the
store or did he go goomba?
Speaker 8 (20:54):
God?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
How big is that bowser sign? I can't tell from
the photo? My Jones?
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Good morning?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Hey, Why aren't you at a Target right now?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Everybody and their mother's like, Oh, Target's got fifty of
them on the shelves.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Because I pre ordered one a couple of weeks ago
when it started, and I thought I would get it today.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
But but you're telling me you got to notice it
said you're not getting it until next week.
Speaker 6 (21:19):
It says not until June eleventh. But I'll actually get it.
That's the estimate.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Oh, so he could be later than that.
Speaker 6 (21:27):
It might be, It might be you never know.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Hey, can I honest question, what if you if you
went to a store today and bought when can you
cancel your pre order?
Speaker 6 (21:38):
Probably could, or I could just sell it to someone
who you're.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Going to sell it to.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Everybody who wants one already just went into the store
and got it.
Speaker 6 (21:44):
Well, I'm sure other people would want another one.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Wait, hold on, let me piss Jones off. When is
Josh getting his? Is Josh?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
I have no idea? Is Jones and Nintendo guy? The
answer is yes, Josh will saddle right up next to him.
Speaker 6 (21:58):
Hey, Jones, I'd sell it to Josh.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
How much money did well?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
First of all, how big is the Bowser wooden piece
that you bought.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
I'm looking at it right now.
Speaker 8 (22:09):
It's about a foot and half by foot and a half,
so it's a pretty decent size.
Speaker 6 (22:12):
On the wall.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
And you had and correct, be honest, you had to
buy a bag to bring all of your merch home, the.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Biggest bag they had at Super Nintendo World.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
I bet that was cheap.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Actually, the bag is pretty reasonable compared to everything else
I got. How much money did you spend on on
Nintendo stuff?
Speaker 6 (22:34):
Let's not, let's just not.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Can I ask you that more than how much was
the Bowser wooden thing?
Speaker 10 (22:41):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (22:43):
Thirty five dollars?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
I believe I thought it was going to be more.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
Yeah, no, ar, Actually that was a bargain.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
What was the most expensive piece that you bought?
Speaker 6 (22:55):
The Marty McFly Back to the Future shirt? I got?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
How much was that?
Speaker 6 (23:02):
It was a seventy dollars shirt?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
A T shirt?
Speaker 6 (23:07):
No, no, no, it's a button up shirt.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Oh it's a dress shirt.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Okay, oh my god, like for weddings.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Oh no it's not. No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Do not wear that to somebody's wedding. That you could
wear that to Josh's wedding?
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Like that? Will ever happen?
Speaker 6 (23:22):
Are you looking at it? The pink one?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
No, I'm not pessed out. We got to find this.
Did you spend more than two hundred dollars.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Total on stuff?
Speaker 7 (23:36):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Did you spend more than three hundred dollars?
Speaker 6 (23:43):
Probably around there?
Speaker 3 (23:45):
Wow?
Speaker 6 (23:48):
Okay, there was so much good stoffs I couldn't help it.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Wait, so did you get the one that looks like
the Back to the Future three prop? The pink one
with the fringe?
Speaker 8 (24:01):
No, no fringe, no fringe, but it does have the
nuclear symbols on the shoulder.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
That's worth seventy dollars. Jesus hell.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
Yes, it was.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Good for you? Good for you?
Speaker 6 (24:22):
All right?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Well, listen, I'm sorry you won't get it for a week.
Everybody seems to be enjoying it.
Speaker 6 (24:27):
You know what. It's okay, I got to go to
Super Nintendo World. I'm not too upset.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Hey, aren't the aren't the reviews? I mean, I'm being serious. Well,
answer the first question. You're you're a huge Nintendo guy, right, yeah?
Have you had every Nintendo system?
Speaker 8 (24:43):
M yes, except for the Virtual Boy?
Speaker 2 (24:47):
What is that?
Speaker 8 (24:51):
You have a question.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I've never even seen this before. What year is this?
Speaker 6 (24:59):
And man, I want to say eighty nine, early nineties
somewhere in there.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Do you remember the selling No?
Speaker 3 (25:07):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Uh uh Why didn't you have that? Why is that
the only one you're missing?
Speaker 6 (25:13):
Because that there was no reason for us to have
it as kids? And you know I understand that was there.
My mom thought we would break it.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Was there a reason to have three of the same
one that you sent a picture of?
Speaker 6 (25:25):
No, there was a light and a two ds. They're
not the same.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
All right, Very good, Very good.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Hey, send me a picture of the of the bowser
thing on the wall.
Speaker 6 (25:44):
All right, give me one second.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
It's coming, all right, dude, talk to you later, all right, bye,
bye bye.
Well, I find anybody who's gotten to switch yet. Oh
I meant to drive by best Buy. I wanted to
see it.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Yeah, on the overnight news, the lines were ridiculous, ridiculous
with midnight right, yeah, midnight release.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I don't know if everybody.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
I think they said in some places there were a
ton of midnight releases. I think they said there were
some places where they weren't opening early, that they were
just opening at their regular time. I don't know which stores,
so I don't know what time they opened, but that
they weren't doing midnight. A lot of places did midnight openings.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
So yeah, there's got to be a few out there
that are sitting pretty with their brand new switch too,
they believe, Kristen, Will you do me a favor?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Will you find me somebody who has already gotten their
switch to?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
By the way, where's Jonesy in this?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Wasn't he all?
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:58):
So he wasn't trying to get one? And like because
I was, I was reading about somebody who pre ordered. Well,
let me finish one thought at a time, Christian, will
you see if you can find me somebody who either
A got the switch switched to B was camped out,
maybe they did get one, maybe they didn't, or is
currently camping. I got to assume every place is opened
(01:20):
already eight six six to Elliott eight six six two
three five five four six eight.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
So anybody who either.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Got one already camped out and did or didn't, I
don't know if you got one or not or is
currently camped out.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Also didn't. I read though some of the people who
pre ordered, like you said, Jonesy pre ordered, but I was.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I read a story yesterday that people who had pre ordered,
some people were told they won't get it till like
June eleventh.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
I saw some reporting that the pre orders are being
canceled this week. Why I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Oh, not canceled, but just the wait, there's being canceled.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
The orders. People were telling various blogs their order was
canceled this week.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Why would that be the case?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
They overestimate how many units they were going to have.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
I thought, oh, available, Well, wouldn't you rather them say hey,
it'll be July fifth than just cancel you?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Absolutely, yes, But at the same time you'd be pretty angry.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Oh you'd be furious, no matter what, you'd be furious.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
But at least you know it's coming as opposed to
it just got canceled.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Go show your d in the dirt at the retail stores?
How many switch tos did they have available?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
And that's the part.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
I don't know how they were doing it because one
of the stores that they showed on the new Overnight news,
there had to be fifty people, one hundred people that
were camped out, like the line was long.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I didn't count everybody.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
There's no way the store had that many right now.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
They had a sign up that said we have ten but.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Why would you be one hundredth of the line.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
No, no, no, But my question is were they going
to do one of those things like remember people used
to camp out for tickets, and let's say they started
giving out numbers starting with one, and it would go
through three hundred. Well then they would say the line
begins with and they would draw a number, so you
didn't know. That's how they prevented you from getting their
(03:20):
six months ahead of time, which there was a jackass
on the news who has been camped out in front
of a store for six months? Well it was two
months and it's Nintendo New York. That's right, sixty days,
which is still insane.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yes, that they talked to a couple of people in
that line who said being unemployed has never been so great.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Amen?
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Because they had no amendments. Yeah, sure, I'm assuming he
got one. They weren't going to do a number raffle
at eleven fifty nine?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Probably not. Where am I going mine? Eight?
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Elliot the morning?
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (03:59):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Who's that? Uh?
Speaker 7 (04:01):
This selfirst?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Okay? I kind of asked for a couple of things.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
There are you?
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Did you? Did you camp?
Speaker 6 (04:09):
I did not?
Speaker 7 (04:10):
I got there at some forty five am this morning.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Where did you go?
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (04:17):
Geithsburg Target?
Speaker 1 (04:19):
And what time did they open? Eight?
Speaker 6 (04:21):
Eight o'clock?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Was there a lot of people there?
Speaker 7 (04:26):
I was number twenty three when I got there at
some forty five they had forty in stock?
Speaker 1 (04:31):
So you got one?
Speaker 6 (04:33):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (04:33):
They did?
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
How is it?
Speaker 3 (04:34):
How is it?
Speaker 7 (04:36):
I haven't paid it yet? It's one my son?
Speaker 1 (04:38):
The uh oh dude, come on? It makes surprise?
Speaker 6 (04:42):
Yeah? Wow?
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Oh I hope he's not listening. Well, I hope he is.
I hope everybody listens. The wait, So when when is
he going to get it?
Speaker 7 (04:50):
As soon as he gets home from school?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
There you go, very good, very good.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Good for you, and so it wasn't that isn't that
weird that it just wasn't that crowded where you were.
Speaker 7 (05:00):
Yeah, I'm surprised. I actually went on the app. I
got a notification this morning saying that I was in
the stock So I just, you know, figured just why
not just you know, head to the store and see
what it was like. I thought people were gonna camp out,
to be honest.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I mean, based on all this, all the hype and
everything you saw, and I mean again, I just saw
stuff overnight.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
It looks like people were camping all over the place.
Speaker 7 (05:22):
Yeah, I got lucky.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Good for you, Good for you, dude. Congratulations.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Can I can I ask this? And this is based
on one phone call? Is it gonna be a flop?
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I thought based on based on lawn phone calls? Gonna
be massive?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I read a report would be the second biggest launch
by Nintendo, second biggest, second biggest launch. They're expecting to
move fifteen million units.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
For the launch.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Do you know what the biggest launch ever was? I do?
I do, But you're not gonna tell us.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You tell me.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
The previous switch, Diane, Seriously, no, actually, you know what
the previous switch. Now that you bring it up, I
gotta find it. The previous switch wasn't big at launch.
Launch is considered the first quarter of sales. Now afterwards
(06:23):
it really took off, So.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
It wasn't hard to get a switch when they first
came out.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Oh you know what, I take that back. It did
very well. It did very well. It was the third
biggest launch for Nintendo.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Oh so can we even trust what you tell us now? Yes,
yes you can, because I'm looking right at it. Damn it? Forbes,
remember this messed up your list with a soprano?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yes, because they had their numbers wrong. I'm sorry, Kristin.
Where am I going? Line three? Hard to get there
with everybody guard piling? Hi Elliott the morning?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Hey Elliott, what's up? TROI did you get a switch?
Speaker 6 (07:03):

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Where did you camp?
Speaker 6 (07:09):

been two hundred and fifty people there. I didn't make
the cutoffs. So I went to Walmart and they were like,

hundred and fifty people when you got to Walmart. How
many people were at Walmart?

maybe five or six people showed up right at six
behind me.

it is there, it is.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
We U was the bust.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
As a matter of fact, you know, it only sold
in its lifetime. In its lifetime, it only sold thirteen
point five million.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
And they're thinking switch to in the first quarters in fifteen.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Wow, they they they say WEU.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Was its worst flop, Nintendo's worst flop.

Jones that's checked in.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
By the way, did he get his tell him to
go to uh tell him to go to Short Pump?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
He said, thank you? Sure, a crying Mario gift. I
wish I had my switch to, but my target pre
order is coming until next week. Next week, I hear
you can walk in at nine thirty and get one
on your break and there's still seven left. So it
is it not? Is there a big air out of
(10:15):
the tires today? But I'm looking at photos from game
stops that did allow people to get in line. There's
lines hundreds of yes long. So was Target just not
thought to maybe get as many? So people did not
consider it as an option.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I don't know line six. Thank you, Kristin Hi Yelli.

Target in the area. Which target is he Hi and Alexandria. Yeah, no,
exactly where that is yep.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
So if anyone wants to switch too. My husband had

insane and couldn't wait until tomorrow, so he decided to
go to the Target to see if they were there.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
That's awesome, Hey tell him to pick one up for
Jones and then he can price guage Jones because Jones
doesn't want.

them readily available this morning. So Target seems like it
was the place to go. Or is still did they
not do a midnight thing? Is that why? Maybe that
had you had to wait until eight? I mean, it
sounds likes it sounds like it no location has opened up.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I don't think well, I can't say none, but it
sounds like that's the case.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Best selling Nintendo system Oh I forgot we were doing this.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Yeah, over the course of his lifetime. Not his, but
it's lifetime lifetime.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Who ds Oh never played it?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
One hundred and fifty four million units. It's not bad,
isn't that nuts?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Is that handheld?
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I never played it. I told you I'm not a
Nintendo Family.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Yeah, it is handheld right now, Diane.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
But I thought we were doing launch. Oh, I forgot.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
I've got everything.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Oh you have a spreadsheet?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Well yeah, I mean I built a deck cool dark?
Where's the game Boy? Game Boy had in the bathroom
with Scott collecting particles? Game Boy Advance came out big.
(14:25):
That came out with eighteen point one million. Never played it,
that's the one. You've definitely played a game Boy. I
played a game Boy, not a game Boy Advance.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
No, I didn't. I maybe I have I don't know.
You know what's weird? Nintendo sixty four only sold five million.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
For the launch. Yeah, what was it? Game Boy Launch?
Are you ready for this? This?
Speaker 3 (14:50):
This was the one that was interesting to me.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
So game Boy Advance the launch eighteen point one million.
That was the launch for game Boy Advance eighteen point
one million.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
What was it for lifetime?
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Oh? Lifetime eighty one, so.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
A great launch, but middle of the pack for Lifeziber.
That's the fifth best selling of all time. How many
devices are there than I have? Like ten, twelve?
Speaker 2 (15:16):
No, there's the thirty five million of them. But again,
game Boy Advance eighteen million. You know what the original
game Boy sold at launch? Three point nine?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
What year was that? Released?
Speaker 2 (15:36):
April of nineteen eighty nine into September of nineteen ninety
The legend of game Boy here, I have the whole legend, dork,
the legend of game Boys. It was an instant smash
thanks to the high stakes acquisition of Tetris, but while
its launch was healthy for the time, it didn't begin
(15:56):
to indicate yes, what Nintendo's defining handheld would achieve. Sales
in the first year were just three percent of what
it would go on to sell across game Boy and
game Boy Color.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
How many game Boys were there?
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Well, I know there was game Boy, game Boy Advance,
game Boy Color. I mean, do I have to do
all of them? I gave you three. I don't know
where am I going. Kristen Wine, what hi Elliot the morning?
Speaker 6 (16:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Hey you get your switch yet?
Speaker 6 (16:34):
Yeah? Yeah, I got it last night. I mest by.
Speaker 9 (16:38):
I also have my old switch stolen from me at
some point during the night.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Wait a minute, while you while you were waiting in
line to get your new switch, someone stole your old switch.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Yeah, it was sitting in my car in a bag,
and they took a laptop that I had in there too.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Oh no, dude, that's dick.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
Did they bust a.
Speaker 6 (17:02):
No?
Speaker 9 (17:02):
No, I guess I didn't lock the car. I had
my switch like when I was waiting in line, and
then I went and put it back in my car
and I got to didn't lock my car after that,
And there's three brand new laptops sitting in my car
and they took one of them, and they took the
bag that had my switch in it.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Dude, I'm sorry. That sucks, bro, Yeah.
Speaker 9 (17:23):
It sucks. But but before that, I had gone a
game stop and I was two people too late to
prepay for one and buy one. So then I went
to best Buy and waited in that line. I got
my switch, though.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yeah, but I feel bad that you got ripped off.
That's not good. People got to be nice to each other.
You've already asked of that. Yeah, and you know what,
it's not hard to do. It's not hard to be kind.
Speaker 9 (17:53):
Yeah, it's I know, I don't get it. I had
so much fun waiting in that line too, like everybody
was so friendly, like we oh, we were sitting there
like joking and talking the entire night fall the way
up till the midnight launch, and.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
And probably one of those jokesters went over and we're like,
watch me just rip you off.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Dude, that sucks.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I'm sorry. You know what, let me get your shirt.
Hold on one second. That should make you feel better.
Hold on one second, form please, yes time.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Well it's Jones again. Oh yeah, Oh, I know what
Jones doesn't have? He said, Did Elliot say Nintendo DS?
I did, yes, And then he really just wanted to
show off a photo. I believe he has three of them, oh,
dear god, and one cat oh in the picture. I
know what he doesn't have?
Speaker 3 (18:38):
One up?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Can you ask Jones? Is Nintendo his company?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Like?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Is that does he has? He owned every system Nintendo's
ever put out? I would bet yes, he is definitely
Nintendo guy. Wasn't he just down at Universal? He was
down in the world.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
And he bought a a some kind of wood would well? Yeah, well,
he said he I got would but he no, he
bought some kind of I don't know what it is,
but some kind of wooden decorative piece that's got some
character's face on it and brought it back like it's bowser.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
That's right. And he got offended when I said the
guy from Shannana.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Right, that's okay, I said the mayor.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Oh, so he got this big crest, yes for his house? Yes?
Speaker 2 (19:36):
And I know he got it home in a new
suitcase that he had to buy because of all the
stuff he bought.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I swear to.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
God he bought a suitcase to get all of it.
He even he was like, I spent too much money,
And I said how much did the wood cost if
it caught?
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Diane, how much would Scott spend on that?
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Before? You were like, Scott, come on?
Speaker 1 (20:01):
So what else? Did he buy a lot of T shirts?
He does have quite a few Nintendo themed shirts wrestling.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Doesn't he? Diane? Tones?
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Did he get any of the hats the I don't know.
Can Jones call real quick? By the way, I don't.
Can we call out yet? Or is that got fixed?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Oh? I fixed that yesterday? Called Bennett that's right, that's right.
I called Bennett. He was with Captain Jane Way.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Did he get the Mario gloves?
Speaker 3 (20:28):
The I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
I do know he did have to buy in suitcase
to get everything home.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Do they have none? All over print? Te's for sale,
not for Jones. Look at these they're all huge, huge prints.
Did he put on a toad plush hat in the
store or did he go goomba?
Speaker 8 (20:54):
God?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
How big is that bowser sign? I can't tell from
the photo? My Jones?
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Good morning?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Hey, Why aren't you at a Target right now?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Everybody and their mother's like, Oh, Target's got fifty of
them on the shelves.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Because I pre ordered one a couple of weeks ago
when it started, and I thought I would get it today.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
But but you're telling me you got to notice it
said you're not getting it until next week.
Speaker 6 (21:19):
It says not until June eleventh. But I'll actually get it.
That's the estimate.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Oh, so he could be later than that.
Speaker 6 (21:27):
It might be, It might be you never know.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Hey, can I honest question, what if you if you
went to a store today and bought when can you
cancel your pre order?
Speaker 6 (21:38):
Probably could, or I could just sell it to someone
who you're.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Going to sell it to.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Everybody who wants one already just went into the store
and got it.
Speaker 6 (21:44):
Well, I'm sure other people would want another one.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Wait, hold on, let me piss Jones off. When is
Josh getting his? Is Josh?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
I have no idea? Is Jones and Nintendo guy? The
answer is yes, Josh will saddle right up next to him.
Speaker 6 (21:58):
Hey, Jones, I'd sell it to Josh.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
How much money did well?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
First of all, how big is the Bowser wooden piece
that you bought.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
I'm looking at it right now.
Speaker 8 (22:09):
It's about a foot and half by foot and a half,
so it's a pretty decent size.
Speaker 6 (22:12):
On the wall.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
And you had and correct, be honest, you had to
buy a bag to bring all of your merch home, the.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Biggest bag they had at Super Nintendo World.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
I bet that was cheap.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Actually, the bag is pretty reasonable compared to everything else
I got. How much money did you spend on on
Nintendo stuff?
Speaker 6 (22:34):
Let's not, let's just not.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Can I ask you that more than how much was
the Bowser wooden thing?
Speaker 10 (22:41):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (22:43):
Thirty five dollars?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
I believe I thought it was going to be more.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
Yeah, no, ar, Actually that was a bargain.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
What was the most expensive piece that you bought?
Speaker 6 (22:55):
The Marty McFly Back to the Future shirt? I got?

with the fringe?
Speaker 8 (24:01):
No, no fringe, no fringe, but it does have the
nuclear symbols on the shoulder.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
That's worth seventy dollars. Jesus hell.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
Yes, it was.

it as kids? And you know I understand that was there.
My mom thought we would break it.
