A friend bought a switch at Target today.

She said they have a lot. This may be common knowledge, but wanted to mention it in case it isn’t.

very cool. I could never agree with $600 for a switch.

I totally agree. When I first was talking about getting a lite, my mom found that a lot of people were selling them for upwards of around $400. I had to tell her about scalpers and how they’ve run amuck with quarantine. Thankfully I got one ordered at the intended price (in my favorite color too!) a couple days ago.

Do you guys think that when mass lockdowns come back, that there’s going to be another switch shortage?

Lets hope for the best and that self quarantine wouldn't be required.

I think Nintendo should be able to keep supply up for a bit.

Probably, I doubt Nintendo and other companies have truly gotten back to the production rates they were before the pandemic.

I feel like we’re back in the Wii days of scalpers now. So long as people are willing to pay through the nose for one, I’m sure that switches will be snapped up within minutes of being placed to order.

Hey there! While it's great that your friend was able to buy a Switch, this isn't related to Animal Crossing: New Horizons, nor is there a lot of discussion value present with a thread like this. Also, store stock of any item would be dependent on the individual location and I doubt more forum members live near the specific Target store visited by your friend.

Locking this here.
