Here in Canada we're kind of getting the short end of the stick when it comes to Pre-Orders. Retailers in the UK and the USA have received second allotments, or at the very least are able to release more pre-orders.
Bestbuy.com had their second lot of pre-orders available for almost 40 minutes!!! Nintendo.co.uk had their second allotment up for almost 9 minutes!
Here in Canada... we haven't even seen a second allotment... anywhere. But my wife and I are still calling around every morning. Is anyone else?

I'm already refreshing the page...
Haha. Well, 3pm anyway. So you can probably cut your refresh rate in half for 90 minutes. :) Good luck.
Ack! That's what I get for reading it first thing this morning, before coffee...
What timezone are you in, anyway?
EST
What's amusing is that I have only wanted to pre-order two consoles: the Wii and the Nintendo Switch. Both are consoles that many online 'serious' and 'hardcore' gamers hates with a passion. I think both will be remembered as among Nintendo's most successful consoles. (But the Switch won't be at the Wii level. More like the 3DS/NES, I think.)
I also think it will have a lull in sales between launch and the holidays. So I think most early adopters and Nintendo faithful will be able to get the Switch in the spring.
Good luck to everyone who doesn't have a pre-order. May the gods of supply and demand look favourably upon you.
