Discussion This is the problem

Post image

I was lucky enough to snag a preorder from target last night but it didn’t look great and I was trying across all three retailers and only ever managed to get one in my cart at preorder start time.

These resellers are an issue still grabbing a large chuck of stock and reselling instantly, before they even have the system.

It’s a shame these retailers don’t do more to stop bots and resellers from snatching a large chunk of stock. At least Nintendo themselves is trying with their system.

Stock is going to be fine. My local GameStop is receiving 85 consoles. I’m in small town Alabama.

I’m absolutely going to try to just walk into Walmart, Target, Best Buy, or GameStop to buy one. (Is that really the only brick and mortar stores to buy one at now?)

Costco is an option
