would love to have DOA with HD rumble"Fastest-selling DOA console ever."
It's not as easy as making a decision or pressing a button. A console has many electronic parts from different suppliers and some of them have a physical limit on how many they can produce per day/week/month. I'm guessing Nintendo is having them made as fast as possible.Hopefully this gives Nintendo the go to get more Switches out for launch.
I'm going to say there's a couple hundred people in line right now.

For example the LCD display is being sourced from a single small Japanese manufacturer. You can't expect a company like that to suddenly ramp up production overnight and meet a close deadline. Supply chains are complicated.
I'll post sone crappy pics later. Dont want other gaffers finding me.
Article is bullshit. Its sold out online but for example at the Geo I was at just now they still have half of the stock remaining. I waited outside for 3 hours but it wasnt needed, only 8 people showed up before opening hours. Hearing the same report from others. Of course at the big stores in tokyo like Yodobashi Akiba there are gonna be lots of people, that doesn't mean it's the same eveywhere else.
It's way too early to say if the Switch preorders are already sold out or whatever that "article" is implying.
Edit: Actually on twitter the reaction is the exact opposite: Still plenty of preorders available everywhere, not much of a "preorder war". People commenting they didnt have to wait in front of the store after all...
So the situation is it sold out online in minutes, and is sold out in the major centers and cities, but in smaller towns there are preorders available?

Nah, it's not even sold out on Yodobashi online.
The situation is: sold out to F5 scalpers on Amazon in a matter of minutes as usual, and enthusiasts in lines in Akihabara as usual.
not on amazon jp yet
Go to Bicqlo (Shinjuku).
It opened at 10 and I walked in at 10:45 and picked one up with guaranteed launch day collection. No lining necessary..
Yodobashi's servers are too borked to sell out
it's not wholly red like their previous handheldsThere is (Nintendo Store exclusive).
even ignoring shipping cost, 211 * 1.2 = 269 already, and that's w/o courier service charge for "we handled the tax thingy on behalf of you".
211 * 1.2 is not 269.
It's actually $282. You forgot the 8% consumption tax.Wait, I just realized that Japan's price is equivalent to around $262? Making it the cheapest price worldwide by a good margin. I'm kicking myself for missing it on Amazon by a couple of minutes. (shipping price would have been the same to me from anywhere, got forwarding addresses all over)
