I do agree that there people on ResetEra from Japan that do great reporting. I look at the Media Create sales pages because these people often provide information on when the next shipments are (local stores typically advertise major restocks a few days in advance). However, I have not seen people say that it is readily available. That poster you mentioned said that the stores that do have them have low-stocks, that goes in line with the small weekly shipments that I have been talking (if there were no shipments what so ever then Switch would have 0 hardware sold in Japan). Also, that does not mean that the system is easy to find, as it is quite likely that the stores do get low-quantities sell them quite quickly (again in line with what we have been seeing from Yodobashi and Bic).

Thank you for the sources. Though I think it is a far cry to go from no longer having stay in line for lotteries to being able to access a low quantities of a system or easily and make reservation that are fulfilled more quickly to saying that anyone that wants one can get one now. It is also still too early to establish a demand-based base line. Though if Nintendo continues making more frequent shipments like these, then we will probably have a good balance between supply and demand in the first-half of the year.
