Just noticed this price on JB Hi Fi. Also confirmed in Price Hipster. Looks like a decent drop.
Super Mario Odyssey Release Date ‐ 27/10/17

Different game. Mario vs rabbids is the 29th of this month. Super Mario odyssey is in October.
Yep misread, my apologies. Assumed it was the rabbids one because it also had a recent price drop from JB.
Pretty keen on Mario vs rabbids
If the preview are as good as the final
This should be a good strategy game
Great price, system needs a few more big titles like this.
Hoping for Odyssey bundle around Christmas
Well, traditionally you have gaming consoles for home (eg. Wii, PS4, Xbox) or handheld (DS, Vita). Even though the Switch falls into both categories, it is marketed as a home gaming console (and it also has the performance as one) with handheld features (whereas the 2DS/3DS are in the handheld line). So actually, it's cheap for a home gaming console.
I thought it was marketed as a portable
You thought wrong
It's actually marketed as a hybrid, so you're both wrong 😜
@BradleyDS2: they can market it however they want. It won't change the fact it's a portable with HDMI out. I'm ok with that. I see it as a powerful handheld.
@TLZ:
it is designed primarily as a home console
Literally the second sentence.
competes on the electronic gaming market with the Sony PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Xbox One.
In other words, it's in the same category as PS4 and Xbox one, which are home consoles, which supports that it's primarily a home console.
@TLZ:
This isn't entirely correct. The HDMI out stupidly required a dock (or dongle?) to work. This is a design oversight IMO.
Nah you are wrong. I rather be ignorant and biased because I am jealous
A console then portable imo only because the games look better when its used as a console so thus console primary>portable secondary
Still waiting for the sub-$400 Kogan deal for the console…please do it again Kogan, just not when I'm sleeping..
We're probably due for another 15% off Ebay too.
What's wrong with you snooze you lose?
I was awake during that deal, but sadly I already own one, so it was useless to me.
Sure, I could have bought and resold, but that doesn't feel morally right to me.
Won’t bug w have it cheaper.
Never heard of them mate =p
i believe it's called BugW in New Zealand.
I laughed way too much at this! :)
No idea. Maybe try AMart (all sports)
Butt W(hole) should be the cheapest if TA helps us to negotiate a deal.
Anyone know where to find a cheap switch pro controller? Really sucking at Splatoon with the joycons. eBay prices are insane even with 20% discount
Does that come to $80? The cheapest i can get it for is just under 70 and that is through mates rates at jb so i doubt we'll ever see it cheaper :(
Cheapest EVER was $75 through eBay with Target but they ended the listing through error.
Cheapest WAS $79 at both BigW and Target at different times.
Now, Unless you have work mates with 10% discount with sales. The cheapest is $89 as of now. eBay is hovering around $80 with sales. Not that insane.
I find the joycons best for Splatoon. Play with one in each hand and aim with just the right one - closest thing you'll get to mouse and keyboard on console, only better!
Or you can wait till it gets released and most likely it will be $64 at big w or target
Target is going to have it for $69 retail definitely. They will probably sell it at $64 at release like arms, splatoon and MK8 and it would be great if ebay got scared of amazon again so we can get an extra 10-15% off that.
That's the most I was ever going to pay, but it's nice to have it locked in nonetheless, cheers OP.
If you preorder from EB Games you get the exclusive bonus (Cappy). Just price match JB/Target/Big W on the day and you'll get the preorder bonus too
How easy is this?
I always thought JB HiFi preorder deal won't be available anymore on the release day.
I've never pre-ordered from JB, because from personal experience Big W and/or Target is always cheaper than JB on release day
I pre-ordered from EB, then on the day of pickup I just show them the price from Target and get it matched straight away with the preorder bonuses
Awesome. Thanks.
EDIT Sorry thought I'd found it cheaper but was wrong..
~$58.80 delivered here if you don't mind waiting for it to come from the UK.
