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.

Communication was sent to some My Nintendo members today announcing Switch demo weekends in major US cities. The Friday and Saturday events are invite only while Sunday will be open to the public. Those entering on Friday and Saturday are permitted to bring one guest with them.

The events are slated for the following areas, with more potentially to be announced as well as exact event locations:

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.

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!
