Mad Nintenigger detected. Your shit console can't even sell out at launch. Even the Pii U sold out at launch
Tyler Cruz
Gamestop told my friend who didn't preorder to come early thursday to hold non-preorder ones for midnight, not surprised.

Truth is, they simply didn't put all units for preorder.

It's no secret that Nintendo fakes shortages. Remember when the Wii U supposedly sold out, and a month later, there were palettes of overstocked Wii Us in every Walmart?
Brandon Scott
I'm a manager for a Dutch gamestore and they are definitely sold out for us, with more preorders than ps4 and WiiU combined. It will sell like Shit after launch week though.

How many extra units are you getting for walk in sales
Joseph Sullivan
Gamestop is well known for hoarding shit for their own gains.
Jayden Hernandez
I work at GS. We only took 10 pre-orders, but are receiving 20 units at my store. Its just a faux shortage.

My guess is gamestop reserved some units for walk in sales since Nintendo made it quite clear what everyone is getting way back. Of course they could have different arrangements.
We are getting more units mid March though

This. I remember how they didn't sell all their Xenoblade stock just so they could sell it for 80 a few months afterwards

Is gamestop being paid to lie about Switch demand?
Grayson Scott
>wanting to give polygon clicks
at least pastebin it
Joshua Walker
It's not about dissenting opinions, it's about posting a link to a clickbait website. Just screencap it or something, dumb bitch OP.

But possible. Which means it's not sold out like Nintendo would have you believe.

>GameStop says they will stock a "limited supply" of Nintendo's next video game console in stores when it launches on March 3. The video game retailer says systems will be available during midnight launch events held at local stores.
"I would strongly suggest customers plan on attending one of our midnight launch events for a shot at securing one of these extra units," said Bob Puzon, GameStop's senior vice president of merchandising, in a statement.
>Other retailers including Best Buy — also hosting midnight launch events — Amazon, Walmart and Target will also carry the Switch, Nintendo's first console in more than four years.
GameStop's working that meme magic

>Nintendo's first console in more than four years.
They say that like it's a long time. What a terrible state for Nintendo to be in.
Gabriel Nelson
It was never sold out everywhere as some retailers don't do pre-orders but still are entitled to shipments.
On the other hand, Gamestop just had a promotion where they would randomly allow a Switch pre-order at randoms stores at random time of the day. So either Gamestop reserved some Switches or they got a surplus from Nintendo's increased production.
Josiah Hall
So, does this mean it's not actually sold out? Why would Nintendo lie to us?
