I expect a real handheld from Nintendo soon. Imo, if the Switch does bad they'll just fix the battery life and make a dockless, Joycon-less variant and sell it 

I hope you're right about the joycon-less variant. I have no interest in them.

In my opinion people bought a console that has no games. Zelda is blowing up on Twitch though with many views. Watching people play it makes me jealous lol. Nintendo was tweeting the beginning of launch and what not.

And Im seeing way more 400+ dollars there.Your point?

Well, it's sold out at US online retailers, but where I am, it's easily available in stores. It looks like the scalpers are getting burnt again. It's too early to say how it will do. Surrounding the launch with one game that's available on the prior console may not have been the slam dunk strategy they hoped for. Switch may do well, but there's no "fever" for it ATM. But like I say, it's early.

This is quite relative. Not normally would I recommend waiting for sales, but in fear of making oneself look stupid I would recommend it.

Also, according to Bloomberg, the launch has gone well: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-03-02/nintendo-s-switch-goes-on-sale-targeting-new-video-gaming-niche

Nintendo people.

Many Target stores say they have "limited stock" in my area today. I went to check one but they didn't have any more Switches. They did have about 40 copies of Zelda though, and 1 copy of Just Dance... that must be a good seller .

I don't typically discuss my hobbies offline...but I've heard much more talk of this launch than the Wii U, all positive so far.

Of course, I'm an engineer, so geek-talk is more common where I work, so I can't say how much this means for your average joe.

Considering how 30 of the stores i called had Switches sold out (suburbs and urban regions), I can definitely say it is having a good launch.
