Nintendo Switch Stock Allocation Has Sold Out

Nintendo Switch Stock Allocation Has Sold Out

The Nintendo Switch has already sold out of its allocated pre-orders, pretty much everywhere, meaning that either yesterday’s report that Nintendo would be creating yet more “manufactured scarcity” were true or the Japanese company’s new console really hit hard, despite its surprisingly high price.

In the US, Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart is sold out of units, though the latter has announced that it will take limited pre-orders in-store for a 10% deposit.

In the UK, Amazon “has sold through our allocation of Nintendo Switch,” though the retailer is still taking pre-orders, to be fulfilled when more stock becomes available, while Game, which is also taking pre-orders, says, “At this time we have not received official confirmation of stock allocation. Until we have our allocation confirmed by Nintendo we cannot guarantee that every order will be fulfilled for launch.” Amazon pre-orders are restricted to one per household.

Regardless of whether Nintendo is trying to produce hype by initially understocking the Nintendo Switch or not, the company is sure to increase allocated stock for retailers in the coming weeks and months. Hopefully every pre-order will be fulfilled by the time the console hits stores.

The Nintendo Switch is priced $299.99 in the US and £279.99 in the UK and is set for release on 3rd March.
