We've got the Nintendo Switch livestream tonight, where we're hoping to learn all about the console, games, release date and price. However, if Nintendo New York's Twitter is anything to go by you'll be able to officially pre-order the thing tomorrow. 

Here's the tweet: 

A limited quantity of pre-orders for the #NintendoSwitch will begin on 1/13 at 9AM while supplies last at #NintendoNYC.January 11, 2017

We know the console will be releasing in March and several retailers have been offering speculative pre-orders (giving us plenty of clues on the Switch's price range). However, this is the first official opportunity to pre-order. It's unclear if the Nintendo Switch will be available to pre-order anywhere else on the 13th, but it certainly looks like everything will be kick off in the AM tomorrow.
