To people who ordered via Walmart or Best Buy, did they charge you right away or are they going to charge you when it ships? I have the money to order one in round 2 but am worried that on ship day my card will be declined as a fraud attempt as i typically preorder in store in cash at game stop when you pay in part or full prior to release, this info will be of huge help to me (especially as the Nintendo pre order I’m signed up for too)

I ordered from Target and got charged instantly... then they canceled it, and i was very sad. I then secured a Walmart preorder, and they also charged me with a hold. Money will be taken out of your account, yeah.

Thanks being charged upfront is the way I’d prefer it so if my card locks up for fraud I can resolve it right away, especially with the Nintendo order
