Nintendo's description for both locations says the events will feature Mario Kart World races, Switch 2 demo units, photo ops, and opportunities to shop at the stores (but not purchase Switch 2 hardware, which require separate reservations for tonight through the coming week.)
Is anyone here attending either event (please specify location)? Is Nintendo giving out any free goodies / merchandise / “swag” e.g. Switch 2-branded posters, T-shirts, etc? How long are the lines? Do you feel the event is worthwhile?
I attended official launch parties for the Xbox One (Microsoft Store) & PS4 (GameStop, Sony-sponsored) in 2013. They threw so much swag at us (Xbox backpack / T-shirt / keychain, PS headbands / wristbands, posters, demo codes etc.) that I resold duplicate quantities (they didn’t care; they just kept throwing swag at us) for hundreds of dollars. And dinner was included & on them too.
Is Nintendo's official Switch 2 launch party similar?
