So, Best Buys across the country have tons of Switches in stock. So much so that they've removed the website lock that kept you from doing store pickup. Targets and Walmarts are also reporting similar inventory, through 3rd party websites like istocknow
>f-fly over states! it's sold out here, I swear! Give me your zip code and I will find stock within 5 miles of your address.
Face it, launch demand was high because drones that would usually wait 1-2 years to buy Nintendo hardware all wanted one at launch to play BotW. Now that the launch craze is over, this is bound to become the next Gamecube.

Yeah I never saw a Switch in stock anywhere until last weekend where the local Wal-Mart was full of them.

Just checked, you're actually right. I live in a moderately big city and every single store around me has them in stock ready in one hour. Is the Switch hype train finally over?

Funny you mention this. My friend and his girlfriend just bought one for Mario Kart today and neither of them ever owned a Wii U or a 3DS (at least to my knowledge). While I don't think the system has the same wide spread appeal as the Wii, it has a lot more than the Wii U and the Gamecube.

I'm glad. Means the splatoon 2 base will grow. For the first time since I've owned it I wasn't able to get in a match because not enough people

>5 miles away Kershaw is starting today I ain't fucking going 5 miles. Nice meme fag.
Anthony Martin
Agree it'll be more popular than the Wii U. Whether it outdoes the gamecube has yet to be determined. I think it's way too expensive right now, which is its biggest problem. But a price cut would save that. GC was slashed to $99 a year after launch, which is the only reason it didn't do Wii U numbers itself.
Daniel Gutierrez
Switch being sold out is a meme everywhere but Japan.
Adam Edwards
>not just playing BoTW on cemu
no reason to buy shitty, overpriced, underpowered hardware from a gook company too stupid to port their shit to a real system
Carson Phillips
>BOTW is the only game on the switch Are you really that stupid?
Mason Watson
You can play MK8 and Splatoon on Cemu too Nothing else the system has is worth it
Jackson Foster
Honestly though, I'm still impressed that it fucking launched with Zelda.
Imagine the Xbox 360 launching with Halo 3, or the PS3 launching with........ ???
This was going to be a positive post, but then I remembered that even if it's impressive that it launched with a killer game, at least the Xbox 360 and PS3 had backwards compatibility.
Isaiah Carter
I'll bet you $300 in Bitcoin it does more than 50 million lifetime
Evan Foster
You seem to be happy about this. What does the Switch selling or not have to do with anything?
Cooper Robinson
It'll get another sales boost from Odyssey. Sales can slow down but as long as it keeps selling the price won't be cut for a while. I do think the initial price point gives it some wiggle room, though.
Gavin Bennett
>it's the day that the new exclusive to the switch releases >Best buy suddenly has stock Gee I fucking wonder why
Elijah Evans
>You can play MK8 and Splatoon on Cemu too MK8 Yes but splatoon is worthless without online and you can't play the second one on CEMU
Asher Peterson
If it gets a price cut, sure. I think a price cut would have improved the situation for the Wii U, but it oddly never got one. So it's hard for me to tell. If Nintendo sticks to their guns on the $300 price, I think it will fall considerably below that
Logan Parker
closest store for me is 20 miles for a gray switch and 25 miles for a red and blue switch. i already have one, but it's nice that best buy opened the online shit. if people were serious about scalping them, they'd already be calling and checking all the stores.
Blake Hernandez
It's outpacing the 3DS in the west and selling out within minutes every week in Japan. 70m is almost guaranteed because of pokemon
Dominic Brooks
>conveniently not posting your zip code
Alexander Gray
Himeji doesnt have zip codes
Jaxson Carter
>launched with Zelda Launched with a Zelda port*
Camden Clark
Reminder that the PS3 sold 90M so until then it's safe to say that only Sony drones are buying the PS4. On that note, is the PS4 in stock? It is, isn't it? >b-but sony!! gee I wonder who made this thread
Samuel Anderson
Ps4 is 8th generation and the switch is 9th
Stop trying to make this. The ps4 already killed the wiiu and the switch has 0 competition.
Nolan Ward
And? What does that have to do with anything I said?
Levi Davis
write a script and find me, faggot
Julian Young
>It's outpacing the 3DS in the west Again, I think that's because demand is going to be very front heavy. Imagine you have 20 million or so diehards. If you distribute them over 4 years you might have 5 million who bought hardware launch year, the next year, the year after that, etc. But those same 20 million, there might be 10 million or more who decided to buy a Switch in launch year because usually it takes a year for a Nintendo hardware to have any games worth mentioning. Not the case with the Switch. But you're still only courting the same 20 million either way, so while demand looks very high right now, it will probably tank sharply if what I'm saying is true.
>and selling out within minutes every week in Japan. Well sure, but supply has been very low there. I think only 1.3 million were supplied of the global 5 million shipped when that report was made, which is far less than a 3rd of global supply at that time. Nintendo has been significantly undersupplying the Japanese market because dedicated consoles (including handhelds) have been doing poorly there as of late, since most people have gone to mobile. It's actually the world's biggest mobile games market.
I mean, consider the 3DS, which is Nintendo's worse selling handheld, sold 20 million units in Japan. 1.3 million isn't very many, so for them to sell out instantly doesn't mean anything. It just means they're undersupplied
Jeremiah Martinez
wouldn't sony be a japanese corporation too? should have been >i hate everyone but Nintendo
Christian Martinez
Are you sure it isn't just Nintendo finally getting over their demand issue? or do you want the switch to fail that badly
William Nelson
That's not hard to do since all they had to do was delay a Wii U port...
Benjamin Brown
i'm glad anyone who wanted one before can go out and get one now. let's all play some videogames

Why do some of you people on here want things to fail so bad?
Its not even specifically nintendo, its anything you can grab your hands on
Zachary Moore
I have $500 in gamestop store credit. I need it to be in stock there.
Jordan Cook
>not buying them and selling them online The scalping market tanked over a month ago. There's no profit in it. I can explain why $370 is too low to profit off of a $300 item but you're probably too stupid to understand
Matthew Morgan
>shit eating fans on this board who act like garbage like Mario Kingdom + Rabbids is good because it's Nintendo and it's exclusive or maybe because they like the game?
Isaac Gomez

it's a watered down XCOM for kids, if you think that somehow equates to garbage I can only assume you have brain damage, it's mediocre, not awful.

Adrian Baker
>Now that the launch craze is over, this is bound to become the next Gamecube. Yeah, now that there's finally enough stock to meet demand during a non-holiday season, let's just forget about it being sold out everywhere for almost 6 months straight.
Totally a flop guys.

Julian Long
this made me chuckle quite a bit good job user
Nolan Carter
And sales tax unless you're lucky enough to live in one of the 4 states without any
Caleb Ross
you don't really notice them when you're playing. maybe if you were holding and interacting with it like a tablet.
Jason Sullivan
Having a Switch "in stock" that costs more than $300 does not count. If it did they've been "in stock" everywhere for months.
Just go on Ebay and look through newly listed deals. That's what I did and got one new with a new copy of MK8 for $340.
Benjamin Davis
no one even said that for disliking it. you dislike a game okay, but that doesn't mean fucking up the experience for other people who do like the game. and saying something like >shit eating fans on this board only shows you're worse than the fanbase.
but to be fair you are on what is considered to be the worst board on Sup Forums.
Jaxson Howard
>people are still having trouble finding switches I refuse to believe. Every big store I've been in has had like 8 on the shelf.

Jeremiah Williams
Who wants to give a guy like 60 bucks so he can afford one for his birthday (yesterday, admittedly)
Angel Ward
There would have to be an unprecedented sales drop off at this point for it to only pull GameCube numbers. Even if followed the exact same sales curve it would still outsell the N64.
Ethan White
Just buy a stolen one from a junkie. You're a fool for buying electronics at full price.
