I was skeptical about using it as a handheld before buying it, but now I love it. I just got back from the car dealership to get my car checked out. I had to 'wait' an hour, that was way too short, still plenty battery left! The guy at the service counter was trying to get one too 'for his kids'. Demand will only get stronger when more are seen outside.

No, hopefully, nintendo gets their shit together quick and sends a more appropriate amount of consoles, if it's selling that well.

I learned on this site that Nintendo are magic and can see in the future to find out their exact demand, down to the very last console.

So they always ship ten less. :P

Switch breaks Nintendo launch sales record

"ya well its because they shipped more than any previous system"

Switch is selling out as soon as shipments come in

"ya well its because they are trying to create articial demand"

the logic of some people is baffling, is it really that hard to say Switch is having a successful launch period?

Nintendo really learned from the wii u disaster

Have Gamestop employed a person full time dedicated to hyping up their business with vague statements almost every day? I find it sort of strange that they're the only major retailer going bananas like this, I'm sure it has nothing to do with their impending doom.

Yes, I think the same.

The Switch can only get better at this point as it adds more games to it's library throughout the year. It's hard to see the demand going down anytime soon based off of what the Switch offers. It's still getting a lot of positive chatter around my work place, which is something the Wii U never had. Their marketing is also more on point.

fingers crossed it will keep the momentum up and high!

Dang, this is sounding similar to the Wii, which would quickly sell out of any restocks they received. It's still early to say if the Switch will continue to be a success, but so far looking good. Just keep the games comin' Nintendo.
