Hopefully the mods leave this open because it'll get lost in the sticky.

Simply put it's a thread to show what places are sold out and where you can still get it.

Gamestop-Sold out unless you wanna spend 500+ on a bundle with 5 games.

Best Buy-Says they're not sold out but multiple people are having issues when they go to actually confirm order.

Amazon-PRE-ORDERS ARE BACK UP!

Walmart-Sold out

Target-STILL AVAILABLE!GET WHILE YOU CAN!

If there is anything else I missed please update.

MOD NOTE: I WILL BE IN AND OUT AT WORK SO IF YOU CAN UPDATE MY POST, FEEL FREE TO DO SO AS THIS SITUATION WILL CHANGE DRASTICALLY CONTINUALLY.

Happy Hunting guys!

I placed a pre-order at target.com like 2 days before the presentation. Got a 5% discount with my red card too. Target.com is what I did and bare in mind that Switch will shipped 2 millions units so this thing is gonna sell like Crack then it did for PSVR.

Man, I hope I can nail down a pre-order sometime soon. Worst comes to worse though, I'm sure I won't have to wait long. Nintendo always does this. It's like a night club that's empty but the bouncer outside is trying to make a line, so people pass by like "oh man, look at that line, must be a happening place, I gotta go see what it's all about". I remember Wii supposedly had this huge wait lists and it being sold out for months and months and well over a year. Within the first month of release I simply asked everytime I went into a game store, which was often, if they had any, one day they said "yes" and I asked "will you sell it to me" and they they didn't even hesitate and I bought it there and then. Same exact thing happened with the N64 after its release, supposedly my local game stores had these huge epic wait lists but all I had to do to circumvent it was ask every time I visited the store and it didn't take long where basically I did the same thing, I asked if they had any, when they said yes I just asked if they'd sell it to me, and they did.

Anyhow, worse comes to worse they honor those wait lists and it takes me forever to get one... but damn, I'd be pretty happy for Nintendo if they could pull that off.

Yep my bro preorder from both BestBuy and Amazon last night. He'll probably return one or the other or if the resale value holds, he could probably sell it for a thousand dollars and I'm not joking. I'm glad my sis ordered one from BestBuy too for this house so we're set! So far this went smoother than the stupid NES mini.

The Scorpio and the Pro both play current and future games. The Switch doesn't. Also Zelda performs worse on the Switch than it does on the WiiU. So, yeah its burning money at least for me since I own a WiiU and Zelda would only cost me $60 with better performance.

No one is gonna pay a grand for this piece of junk. It will be in stock on launch day just like the WiiU was.

It really depends on the stock. If it's like the artificial stock constraint like the NES Mini, people did pay up to a grand for it. If you search eBay right now and look from highest to lowest, it's already listed way over a grand. People buy stuff for insane prices, it's crazy. And people do buy junk for whatever reason, it's crazy.

Okay, funny, I checked Amazon like maybe an hour ago and no pre-orders were available, just a few minutes ago and they had them again, processed one as a place holder. I'll hold onto that for now since they don't charge until the item is shipped anyways.

Oh, because much would change in 7 weeks? I guess you are not acquainted with gaming history. But you also were wrong about me make shit up. Now you are desperately trying to find some way to cover your ass.

So, as it stands. The WiiU version of Zelda is superior.

Do you have hands on impressions of the game? Nope. The folks in the video has. Are you saying they are making shit up? Bold for someone who hasn't played the game.
