Some demo weekends have been announced for the Switch, and My Nintendo members will have some choice as to when to try the system out.

  • Washington DC - February 10-12
  • Chicago - February 17-19
  • Los Angeles - February 24-26
  • San Francisco - March 3-5

I hope this happens in Australia too.
The 3DS and Wii U got public demos before release.

As usual I expect Nintendo to give the big middle finger to my area. Nintendo never brings ANY of their events within 5 hours of me. Whether it's their E3 demos, their Pokemon mall tours, the GameCube tour, or stuff like this. Nintendo couldn't care less about gamers around here.

Did anyone receive an invite that can't go? And could I have it? I can make it to the one DC and would love to go.

Are they going to put out demos to the general public in addition to this, or are they pulling a Sega Saturn? HMU if you've got an extra LA ticket.

Dang, public demos starting in January? Sounds like Switch is set in stone, all that's left is manufacturing and the games to get ready for launch.
Carmine Red, Associate Editor

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

WHY are there no demos around their company headquarters?!? Seriously, they should have a Nintendo store in the area and they should promote things here. It is where their headquarters are located. :Q

I dunno if they're sending out a second round of emails or what, but I just got one informing me to lookout for an eventbrite email?

Update: Got my tickets! Can't wait!

I suddenly can't go next week, so let me know if you still need tickets.
