i think switch is slowing down on amazon because best buy is giving out a free dock and hdmi cable with the switch.

Dont be too surprised if the situation has since flipped. I dont know how it is in the US, but in the UK, the Switch still has a lower retail profile at Brick and mortar stores like CEX and Game. I went to my local GAME store at Trafford Centre in manchester yesterday for example and saw the Attack on Titan games boldly displayed for both PS4 and XBone but none for the Switch, if I wasnt a more than average aware gamer, I wouldnt know it released on the Switch.
The Switch is still yet to convince the B&M stores it seems but that for me is a double edged sword because it means its sales explosion (at least in the UK) remains pending. Because the strange thing is that at the same Game store, I saw a second hand Switch selling for £299 i.e £20 above the RRP, and there was a young boy on pointing out the stupidity of it being listed for that price when a brand new one was available for £20 less on Amazon.
Also I couldnt find any Joycons available at this particular store which is located at the largest shopping centre in manchester which is always full of people.

It's rhw complete opposite here. My local game has a section for Switch next to the tills and a whole big section across from the DS games. It user to share the section with ds games but since is many new games are coming out physically now they need a bigger space.

A second dock with the Switch?
Considering the price of the original dock, that's actually great value imho

That's not bad. A second dock is pretty handy to have. Though it being a 3rd party dock makes it a bit less enticing in my book. But it isn't the Nyko dock so that's a plus.

A 2nd dock is extremely handy, makes switching TVs so effortless...I agree though about it being 3rd party, definitely less enticing. Just something about official Nintendo licensed product, even though everything is made in China anyway lol
