Not sure how true this is. Have yet to go to a store that doesn't have them. Now, I couldn't get a pro controller anywhere for weeks though.
I wouldn't call what they're doing as crushing it other than in sales. I've just as critical on Sony for their recent tendencies and Nintendo isn't exempt from that. Remember the Wii being on fire? That was the worst of the best selling systems ever by the end.This is a terrible take.
Also, Nintendo having loads of stock is a good thing. Its just not available in the UK and pretty much sold out everywhere. The stock comes in and literally goes straight out the door and it isnt even Covid demand.
Nintendo CRUSHING it and I love the salty tears it generates.
What else do we have to look at other than sales? It just launched.I wouldn't call what they're doing as crushing it other than in sales.
Where do you live?Not sure how true this is. Have yet to go to a store that doesn't have them. Now, I couldn't get a pro controller anywhere for weeks though.
In Japan, UK, France, Spain is sold out.This seems to be a Country specific, and then a geographic issue in the US.
From what i've read here, Countries outside of the US have no problem walking in most of the time to any store and buying one.
Here in the US, it seems to be a mixed bag. I can tell you for certain, that here in Central Texas you can't just walk in stores and find them yet unless you happen to get lucky and stumble in within a day of a stock refresh. I had to get mine in a Best Buy Online drop a couple weeks back.
I'd say for US buyers for now, if you want to avoid the annoyance of going into store after store and finding nothing, your best best will be online drops at Best Buy and/or Walmart. Follow Wario64 on Twitter/X, and you'll know with plenty of leadtime when the drops are. I saw in the last day or so that Amazon US finally put them online but you have to request to be able to buy one via something you'll click on the product page. No doubt priority will go to Prime Members.
Switch 2What else do we have to look at other than sales? It just launched.
Sold out on Amazon germanyIn Japan, UK, France, Spain is sold out.
Why all scalpers? Plus it shows invitation for purchase, something they've started doing for high demand high priced items like some LEGO sets.Went on sale on amazon US on 7/8 and 24 hrs later, its all bought off by scalpers:

They graduate high school and then do some basic jobs and end up working in a small business without being super happy in life. And then bam! baldingHow do people make it through life without growing past this mental age?

Where at in Central Florida? I live in Orlando and I have seen a few in the Target in Meadow Woods area, and the Wal Mart by the 192 in Kissimmee.I have yet to see one in the wild (Central Florida)
Accessories and such is a non issue. I haven't had an issue grabbing games for mine either.

Well you won't be buying one then. I think the hardware is worth the price though even though the screen sucks but I play only in docked.Cool, won't even consider buying it until they drop the $80 game shenanigans.

Gotcha. Been living here for about 3 years now and I sometimes forget how big Central Florida is.The Lake Mary - Daytona Beach area.
My Target shows sold out, but as of this morning, there were 2 in the case in store.Eh....both Target and Best Buy show it sold out. What stores are you two talking about?
Yeah because you people keep buying it. The blood is on your hands.

Got a laugh out of me. Cheers.Yeah because you people keep buying it. The blood is on your hands.
What if the $80 game is $50 when you buy the console, are you then buying 2 consoles?Cool, won't even consider buying it until they drop the $80 game shenanigans.

Well in my country the Switch 2 cost the same or almost the same as a PS5 Pro. Here there is no problem with availability here.Buy a PS5 Pro instead.

Target had them for a week. Walmart has them though for some reason the bundle is 503 which is weird for a 3rd party but the base is in stock at the usual 450. Best Buy has them. They are not scarce now by any means. They are easier to get then Bananas in DK Bananza.![]()
Dunno why the photo is blurry but the GameStop in Hunters Creek in Orlando has em. And the one in Kissimmee on West Vine Street had 50 shipped to that store. I got both my boys one and went to the Kissimmee location and sure enough they did have them in stock.
