Nintendo Switch In Stock At Amazon US, Almost $100 More Than Retail
And what do you know, that also means that it is now being sold at obscenely high prices at a lot of places. The Nintendo Switch with the red and blue Joycons is currently in stock at Amazon.com, which is a pretty surprising thing in and of itself. What is really shocking, though, is that the system is being sold at $395 (at the time of writing), which is almost $100 more than it’s $299 retail price. What’s also remarkable is that, at the time of writing, the listing is showing that there’s only ten more of them left in stock (though the number keeps fluctuating and goes up and down).
Considering how the supply for Switch has been well short of the incredible demand, it’s not really that much of a surprise to see it being sold at higher prices- but the $100 gulf is a bit hard to swallow. That, however, doesn’t seem to be the case for a lot of people, since it’s already selling out like crazy. Have you or anyone you know been affected by these stock shortages for the Switch?

You are better off getting a bundle at gamestop which includes a few games and other accessories for just around $450.

Sakon The switch is a great console, Idk why amazon is charging $100 extra though.

$100 extra ain't all the bad considering the demand for these.

Now that I've seen the switch I kinda want one, looks like a lot of fun, plus I've missed on other Nintendo consoles since the DSi came out.

It's doing great IMO the Switch but it shouldn't be put at a higher price, Where's the extra $100 going ? Amazon ?
