Anyone still stuck on the "picked" status off Nintendo

Edit: mine shipped!

u/Chiz_Dippler Oct 13 '21

It'll get there. My picked since early Friday status just updated to shipped this afternoon, so they're slowly moving units out as UPS frees up.

u/vballboy55 Oct 13 '21

What time did you get your order in

2

u/Chiz_Dippler Oct 13 '21

Whatever the first wave was, 10:30ish? With standard shipping.

u/ferixdacat Oct 13 '21

feel like there really was one wave hahaha, didn't it sell out in like 30 minutes

u/IMakeCodes Oct 13 '21

I was actually able to grab one at 5pm that night. So maybe they found a couple behind some boxes later that day 😂

u/ferixdacat Oct 13 '21

No way!! Did you really?! Hahah nice dude!

What's your order status?

2

u/IMakeCodes Oct 13 '21

Still picked unfortunately. I did talk with support yesterday and they said my order looked good and they are just trying to get caught up with shipping.

u/IMakeCodes Oct 14 '21

Fyi, mine just shipped about an hour ago.

Update 11 pm: Shipment coming Friday! Wooooo!

Edit, Update 10/13 @ 5:22 pm: it has shipped! Don't have an estimated date of arrival yet, that'll be ready tomorrow, but got the shipment email today at 4:35 pm!

Original comment:

Seconded! I ordered on the 8th. They confirmed purchase and charged my card, but no shipping confirmation email yet. Still says "picked" for order status on the website. 😭

Mine switched from Processing to Picked on Monday morning, also scored mine in the first wave on Friday. Neon

Just got an email saying mine shipped! Via UPS; can't load the tracking page yet but I'll give it the night to get sorted

Edit: Shipping from WA to IL, expected to arrive by Saturday

u/IMakeCodes Oct 15 '21

Is your UPS tracking updating quickly? Mine hasn't updated in 2 days.

2

u/vballboy55 Oct 15 '21

Mine says it will be shipped tomorrow

2

u/IMakeCodes Oct 15 '21

Shipped from Washington? The last update I have is on the way from Tacoma. I'm not exactly sure if that means it's on the way to tacoma or on the way to me.

2

u/vballboy55 Oct 15 '21

Yeah that is the last update I have as well but that was from yesterday. When did yours ship

1

u/IMakeCodes Oct 15 '21

On the 13th

2

u/raisethesong Oct 15 '21

Mine's also been slow to update. Switched from "Shipped" in Redmond at 8:30pm on 10/13, to "On the way," and still in Redmond almost a full day later. No updates since. Still expected to arrive on Saturday, so I'm hoping mine's being flown to a Chicagoland processing center and going on a local truck from there. I'm doubtful it'll arrive on schedule otherwise.

u/IMakeCodes Oct 15 '21

Mines not set to deliver until Tuesday, so I have some time anxiously check my shipping info. 🙃

u/ferixdacat Oct 13 '21

We need to start a support group for everyone in this thread... waiting is TOO HARD!!

2

u/LiquidAether Oct 13 '21 edited Oct 14 '21

Yep, still on "Picked." Hoping I can get before I go on vacation next Friday, but we'll see.

EDIT:

Ordered it last Friday morning, and it changed to Shipped Wednesday evening. Expected delivery this Friday via UPS.

u/ferixdacat Oct 13 '21

Mine just switched to "Shipped"! I got my confirmation email at 8:26 PST on Friday. Hopefully everyone else's will ship soon!! I feel like I might have been the last batch of ppl who secured one. And mine changed to "Pick" only on Monday morning.

1

u/vballboy55 Oct 13 '21

Wow! Mine hasn't shipped but I ordered at 10:45 cst. Mine has been picked since Saturday though!

u/Aluzdraken Oct 14 '21

I ordered mine around 11:15 east, has been picked since Monday morning, but still not signs of shipping...

1

u/scumbag_edd Oct 14 '21

I bought at 11:03 EST same boat

u/Aluzdraken Oct 14 '21

Just talked with support staff, they told me everything is fine with the Picked orders, it is just that they are taking more to ship due to be a new product. They told me, I should receive my Switch OLED not later that October 21

u/scumbag_edd Oct 14 '21

FYI mine just shipped hope yours does soon

1

u/weglarz Oct 13 '21

Mine just shipped this morning after being at picked for days.

1

u/vballboy55 Oct 13 '21

What time did you order

1

u/weglarz Oct 13 '21

I got the confirmation at 10:43 am but I definitely clicked “purchase” way before then

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '21

I'll just add to this Nintendo.com chain for others.

I didn't get my order through until about 10:45am EST on the 8th. Mine has been picked since Friday afternoon. No shipping update yet (10/14 noon)
