Nintendo Switch Fans Disappointed With Major Retailers Going Out Of Stock

JP

Looks like its Nintendo NES Classic all over again for Nintendo video game console fans as top online retailers and stores has reportedly sold out of Nintendo Switch just a few days after its big reveal. GameStop has been reported to have already announced on Sunday that all its allotment for Nintendo Switch were already preordered.

Just a few days after Nintendo America President and Chief Operating Officer, Reggie Fils-Aime, assured video game players that the supplies for Nintendo Switch will be enough to meet the demand for the new hybrid game console, Nintedo has once again failed its consumers due to its failure to meet the demand for Nintendo Switch. Fils-Aime has said in an interview that the company has planned to launch 2million units of Nintendo Switch for its March release.

However, with the looming supply and demand problem, either the demand for Nintendo Switch has already surpassed the 2million units or that the company lied when it declared that 2million units for Nintendo Switch will be available in its initial commercial release in March.

US retailers are all reported to have already exhausted their allotments for Nintendo Switch. Major retailers such as Target, Walmart, Toys R Us, Best Buy, Amazon and GameStop has already listed the new hybrid game console as unavailable. GameStop is said to be in constant communication with Nintendo for additional units and has advised its clients to sign-up for notifications just in case the stock for Nintendo Switch is increased.

Meanwhile in UK, GameSeek is reportedly offering its Nintendo Switch for £198.50. GameSeek's asking price is considerably lower compared to other retail stores who are all offering their Nintendo Switch for £279.99.

No reports for increased Nintendo Switch allotment have been made. Consumers who are eager to get a hold of Nintendo Switch is left with no choice but to order the new hybrid game console from third party sites at a higher price.
