I've noticed it being in stock on Amazon frequently recently in the UK, so stock here seems to be improving. It's #1 and #4 for consoles on Amazon UK right now; https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/bestsellers/videogames/676171011/ref=sr_bs_0_676171011_1

Not sure about anywhere else or in store though. I know GAME had a sale for one day on video games day at £259.99.

I picked "want one and can't find one". I got mine at launch by pre-ordering on Amazon a few minuted after they did the BotW full trailer. I want to give my son one for Christmas.
My Anecdotal tid-bit, I have seen them once at launch - my local Wal Mart had a small line going at midnight and I decided I wanted a Pro controller and some of the new Zelda Amiibo. A second time I saw two at Meijer where they had held them back so they could advertise them in the circular. Outside of that I have never seen them on a store shelf. I'd love to get a Mario Bundle but i bet those sell out in seconds.

 

Edit if i wanted to pay $340 here in the US I could get one from a re-seller on Amazon last time i checked.



Update I just ordered the Splatoon 2 bundle off of Walmart's website with the Green / Pink Joycons for $380.00 before tax (not sure where the extra $20 comes from - scratch that I guess it's $20 for the carrying case). So I guess I should have my second unit...

It's currently sitting at 84% and 17%, so maybe things really are getting better out there.



Got mine in August. Target had a few available in the US.

But your last poll was 86% and 23%. If anything, it looks like the stock situation hasn't changed since August.

While 84% and 86% are relatively the same, there was a signifcant drop in those not looking (~26%). Despite the ever-prevalent issue with our small sample size, that could indicate more people are out of the way of others. NowInStock has shown that it's readily available in the EU, so there's hope!
