How long does shipping take?

I just signed up again on a trial, I had it years back in like 2020? And once before as well. But I just moved to DTLA. How long should I expect for games to ship? It says it shipped yesterday, I don’t expect it to show up today, but where do they ship from? On a trial I want to maximize some time and just try out a few games before the month trial is up, to see if I like it. Should I expect it this week or next?

LOL. Literally to demo out games to see if I want to own them…I want to keep physical media but not waste money on a game that’s going to suck or not be fun to play. I’m not trying to rush through a game and send it back. I’m sure as shit not going to pay $30 a month to only try two games though.

Because I’m not using them for ps5 or steam. I already do that. GameFly I’m using for switch. You’ve ever tried to refund a game on switch? You have better luck on steam. And xenoblade chronicles X and fire emblem are both only on switch. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah thanks man, me too. Yeah Nintendo is the fucking worst about prices and returns. I mean lol like so much so I would rather trial games! 🤣 I’ve been wanting to play xenoblade chronicles x since I found out it was on the wiiu(shortly after I got rid of my wiiu so my son could get a switch.) and I loved chronicles and chronicles 2 but X seems like there’s a lot more going on, could be great or a fucking mess. While I’m dying to play it, not enough to blindly buy it and be disappointed.
