Not doubting the sheets but every store hat sold out yesterday has more today?? They all say in stock too so more than 4? Live in California so they aren't even open yet...

I can only report on what their database is showing, I know it is weird a lot of stores got stock way before they open. Is there someone that works for GS that can clarify why this would happen? Did you guys get overnight shipments?

Calling GSs looking for RDS case. Columbus Oh 1704 Morse Rd does not have cases b/ associates answered phone confirming they have systems.

I think it is because they got new deliveries of bundles this morning. At least that is the case in the two downtown stores in Manhattan.
 
With Prime it's was $34.55after tax and all for me. I'm hopeful this will be the game to share during breaks at work. There are a bunch of guys I work with that are old enough to have been in the arcades in the 90's pumping quarters into SF2.
Sounds good, but are you gonna try pulling off combos with those tiny controllers?

Yeah maybe but if it was ordered by someone it shouldn't be showing as available stock but then again GS does fuck up a lot.

Store 533 said they're instock, but I checked in with them and they haven't had any consoles since yesterday. They were the only MN store that showed stock yesterday though so that might be why they appear on the spreadsheet. 

 
I'm starting to believe kill3r7 is correct the number of stores keeps growing but none seem to be selling any yet. Which would suck because if it showing as available in their stock then there is nothing keeping a employee from accidently selling it to the wrong person.

How is the spreadsheet from the first page being updated? I mean, how do they know which GameStops are on that list?
Let's just put it this way: Blackbeard4886 was blacklisted by the CIA for hacking into the pentagon and changing his birth name to "ZeroCool CrashOverride". Do you really have to ask?

5 came in to my store this week that hadn't gotten them.  Apparently their 5 never shipped so corporate overnight'd 5.  I was customer 6 :(  The other store never got it in (Wed-Fri).  All other stores had already sold through theirs.  Oh well.  Best of luck to everyone.

After using the controllers, I think it will be ok. Doing quarter/half etc circles should be pretty easy. The buttons themselves are not so bad with the wrist strap extender things. I might invest in a pair of controller shell things if its too big of an issue for 2 player. If it turns out to be a good fun experience, I'll consider some of the Neo Geo games that are on the Switch Eshop to expand the roster of multiplayer fun games.

I wonder if they are stockpiling and it'll be in the next ad.

 
Pretty sure brickseek is glitching out for some of the Walmarts in my area. I highly doubt that a walmart has 30 in stock while others have 0
 
Holy shit.  Did you guys know that Mario and Luigi are the ones responsible for shipping out Switch systems?

I know it's a few days late, my experience with GameStop bites.
Waited in cold Wednesday for them to open bc person on phone they should becoming in, no switch.
We asked to get tickets bc we waited in cold, no.
Told us to check each day about 4pm.
Called at 4 and no switch.
Called yesterday at 4, they came in at 12pm at that store and the other one near me, all gone.
Gave punk on phone a piece of my mind bc I waited in cold and they told me to check at 4 bc that's when they inventory.

On the positive side amazon had the grey one just a few hours ago, for a few minutes , and snagged one.
 
Mario is clearly slacking. Fire him, and replace him with ten FOXCON Chinese workers, more work done with less cost. 

Lazy ass Italians.

Classic Gamestop you're-not-dorky-enough-to-cater-to move.
 
Haha this is a first. Got the email from TRU saying they're selling them tomorrow morning so I've been trying to call my local stores to see if they have any to sell. One of them the guy says they have a few so its best to line up. I said thanks and was about to hang up but he said "also, we open at 9 and good luck to you".

 
Just reading tea leaves here, but if Amazon had enough stock to last for about half an hour in the middle of a weekday, we maybe close to the point where the Switch is no longer worth scalping, and it'll be easier to find even if Nintendo doesn't figure out mass production.

One TRU says the "rules will be told to everyone tomm morning at opening". The other says "We have 10, first come, first served". But on a Saturday that could be a LOT of people in that line. I think I'm going to stick with my "wait it out" mentality. I want Zelda, but then what? Coming down the pipes is a lot of empty space. Think that'll be the perfect time to try again.

Same here. I want one but I've got a backlog of games a mile long that I keep thinking "Can I really justify buying a $300 game?"

 
I received the TRU email and noticed they have RDS cases in their add. Picked up 2 and they had 3 more. Almost paid double on eBay.

I actually finally had time to start Zelda on the Wii U last night, and so far, so good. I suggest going that route if you guys have access to a Wii U.

 
Got mine from Gamestop and BB on Wednesday of this week. It was funny I went to GS at 10AM (when opened) and was 2nd in line, UPS guy came at 11:30 with 10 units, he bought the first one lol the other 8 of us grabbed one and one lucky dude walked in and grabbed the last....

Happened to go to BB later in day to get Zelda with GC and asked the lady if they got their shipment... low and behold they just unboxed 5, bought another and the others sold out instantly....

Crazy lucky, but the black market seems to be drying up now that more stock is coming in....

 
Friend told me they got a few today at best buy(his store), I decided to wait it out. Might just buy a PS4 pro for now as it got alot of great games these past months and I sold my vanilla one to get a second X1

It's "lo and behold" dude, [get] Low and behold is what Nintendo expects us to do every time they refresh a platform.

So why did you buy two?

Pretty sure the workers at my local stores have become so used to saying "sorry it's not in stock" they don't even check anymore.

This is so slimy. Retailers themselves are now scalping their own customers.
Awhile back, Newegg was my favorite online retailer. They had great prices, normally free shipping, no tax, and super fast shipping. I haven't shopped there in years, as they went from #1 for me, to almost last over night. The last time I used them, it may have still been tax free, but shipping is abysmal, and I mean just bad. And deals on anything are few and far between now.

I wouldn't even mind some scum shit like this, if it was at least a great deal on either side. Maybe a $200 PS4/One along with the NS, but where does the $350 for the NS come from(isn't retail $299, where is the $399 coming from?). As bad as GS is, at least their bundles are retail, so even with all the extra crap they make you buy, at least the prices are what they would normally charge for each item on it's own.

Hell, if anyone is going to pay these prices for 2 systems, there better off on Ebay or Craig's list. Newegg really has gone down the toilet in recent years, I just didn't know how bad it was until now.

Toys r us by me had 20 in stock. Gave out 20 pick up slips at 8:45 am, 15 minutes before opening. First come first serve. Pretty organized.

Edit: I got there at 8:53 AM and was number 22 in line. I'm not sure when people started lining up. But there was another dude who said he got there at 8:15 and he got a pick up slip.

WOW, 20 uh? Not bad. Including you, how many where there? Could you show up at that time and still gotten one, or was there 20 in line by 6am or sooner?

Newegg can no longer say, "have an eggcelent day" and mean it.
