Dear Reader:
Metro newspaper claims Switch due out March 17th for £245, Laura Kate Dale chimes in
@LaurakBuzz Just saw this in the Metro. Do you think it's credible or is this just another example of a paper not fact checking properly?! pic.twitter.com/Oji1ksP0Ip

Date lines up with what I've said for months, price is a little above my reports. I don't know their source on this info. https://t.co/QeUfWMknDT

That would put the Switch at about $300 in the states. I really think that price point is pushing things, so I hope it comes in a bit lower. For the release date, it seems to be right on the money! Thanks to Dakhil for the heads up.
UPDATE - For what it's worth, GameSeek has added the March 17th to their preorder page. GameSeek is the retailer from a few weeks back that let you plop down £198.50 for a guaranteed price on the Switch. In other words, if the actual price went up, you would still only pay £198.50.
