Poll of the Day > The Nintendo Pre-download thing is pretty good...

(+) Yeah! (+)

I have downloaded games in the past and they can take a while to download. Normally less than 2 hours, even for the bigger games. But not much less. Smaller games around 30 minutes. And the super small ones that take up very little space almost feel like it's instant. I guess having the pre-download for games you buy is pretty good... So, you can play you're games right at midnight eastern time...

That's not just a Switch thing. It's like that on most platforms now.

Well, yeah. I know. I guess I should have said that. I recently had to do that for a PC game and PS4 game, as well. I was just thinking about it because I did the switch most recently. I'm just bored at work right now...

I dont often preorder a game but if I do its the digital version for this reason alone

Do you bring your Switch to work? I'm tempted to some days to play it on my break but haven't yet because I'm not 100% certain I can resist the temptation to skimp on my workload and play games instead.

Also don't want to break it or lose it.

I do like it. I like being able to play right as it's available instead of having to wait for a while...

I do. I have been pretty much since I got it. I do worry about it breaking sometimes, but I don't really do anything that would put it in harm. I do take a little longer at lunch, though. I was just playing Mario party during lunch. Haha.
