You prefer a Nintendo Switch You should take good care of your console: replacements are currently only available at horrendous prices. Nintendo has been happy about good sales figures for a long time - but the fact that the Switch could actually be sold out is something that the Japanese console manufacturer could probably only have dreamed of. The alternative: a Nintendo Switch Lite. They still exist.
The Nintendo Switch has been sold out
Already at the end of March the sales seemed to indicate only one thing: Hurry up, it's over soon! And in fact, the Nintendo Switch is no longer available almost two weeks later - at least not at normal prices. In online shops and on auction platforms, the prices sometimes double the usual rate. Even used, sellers charge more money for the Nintendo Switch than would otherwise be the original price.
Is it only like this in Germany? Not at all. It is everywhere in the world Nintendo Switch has become a rare commodity - “Corona” drives players in front of the screens. In the USA, even Nintendo itself confirms the current status. According to this, the “Nintendo Switch is sold out at various retailers in the USA”. However, further systems are already in preparation.
Analyst and industry insider Daniel Ahmad has also commented on the scarcity of the Nintendo Switch. According to him, April will be a "difficult month" in terms of the Switch offering. The situation will not recover, at least not in the short term. In May, probably more likely June - that is at least the time when German online retailers signal replenishment in their shop information - the stocks could normalize again. Nintendo is currently producing under high pressure as far as the Corona situation allows. It will probably take around two months for the population to reach a normal level.
