Hearing this makes me feel so relieved that I have one. Good luck to everyone trying to get one with Odyssey coming out.

I was unsuccessful the first few times I went hunting, but I eventually managed to succeed!!

Same here, I thought I was going to have to buy a scalped one but luckily I found somebody on ebay selling one with a joycon charger at MSRP. Never clicked on buy now so fast in my life I frickin' love this thing!



I'm actually curious how they spread the previous shipments between different regions. I'm still essentially in a situation where I could order one online right now here in Finland and have it delivered to me within few days or week at most.



At this point I feel it's not extremely difficult to get one. I'm glad because scalping these things really pisses me off.

I've passed up several across different WalMarts and Best Buy/EB had a bunch last time I visited them. They promptly sold out, but it's not like hunting unicorns anymore, which is good.

As for me, I got the last one available in Wal-Mart.

Apparently a big restock is coming for the holiday, at least from my local Gamestop. I wonder if that will be enough though...

I am not sure why everyone trusts this Reggie guy. His name doesn't just mean boy-love, but son-love. He also became popular marketing a system that means urination.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Don't worry, stock is coming in more regularly ... 

Soon the system should reach near MSRP in mid october just in time for SMO ...

Knowing GameStop, they'll all come "bundled" with Zelda BoTW oil paintings.

Yes we already know about Nintendo difficult in estimating the demand. They make gross mistakes on determining demand for high or low all the time since Wii at least (2 to 3 years to have supply meet demand), 3DS and WiiU that they projected sales way higher than the demand and now on Switch that they are underestimating. And the worse part is not only that they are bad at predicting their demand, but that they are very slow in correcting the estimates and supplying accordingly.
