Nintendo NY Store Reveals Switch Line Start Time
The Switch is almost here, and the official Nintendo NY store will be hosting a midnight launch. Sure, there’s that one kid (CND – Captain Nintendo Dude) who’s been waiting in line for a month, but did you know that due to local ordinances he can’t stay out in line overnight until 24 hours before the system goes on sale? That’s right, Nintendo has officially announced that fans can begin lining up at the store on March 2 at midnight. No word on how many systems they’ll actually have for sale that night, but they should have a large number. If you do plan on going and waiting in line, be sure to dress warm – the high temperature will only get up to 48 degrees with a low of 34.
