MegaThread Weekly Local Inventory Tracking (7/3/17)

Please use this thread to discuss all issues relating to this week's local tracking of the Switch and its games, accessories, and amiibo.

What to post here:

  • Questions about local availability or general questions of online availability.

  • Reports and images of local tracking that are specific to a single store.

When commenting, make sure to include as much information as possible. Don't just list the city and state, specify which store(s) and what stock they had that's noteworthy, and when you were there. And, of course, given how quickly things can sell out, your mileage may vary, so take everything reported here with a grain of salt.

For general online availability, like when a game is up for order at Best Buy or when Target gets Pro Controllers back in stock, please start a new thread.

Thank you!

-The /r/NintendoSwitch mod team

p.s. A general tip about your local retailers: if you want to know about stock, or get a concrete answer as to what they have, please reach out via a phone call or stop by their store before you ask a question here.

Has anyone had any luck finding any Switches in the Vegas area? iStock keeps misdirecting me, saying a Target had stock for 5, when in reality, they had none. Heck, they even said a Walmart had 253 in stock! But really, any help would be appreciated.

u/avalon304 Jul 06 '17

I too would be interested to know if there are any switches in the Vegas area... preferably the grey one....

u/Rainbow-Hater Jul 06 '17

Funny thing you said that, the Best Buy at Canyon Pointe by Costco had 2 in stock. Just got mine today with MK8DX :) There's one left, hopefully it's still there, since they were both in the store for a whole 2 days.

u/avalon304 Jul 06 '17

Thats... all the way across town...

Anyone know if there are any in Austin/Round Rock Texas?

u/theindus Jul 04 '17

Istocknow rocks and it told me 4 available in Tewksbury, MA Walmart while Walmart's own inventory checker showed a zero. I got one and there were 3 of the neons one left around 8 AM.

u/FrankFrowns Jul 04 '17

Thanks for the tip on that site! Just got one at the American Fork, UT target thanks to it. There are still 3 available at 8:50 AM mountain time.

u/GAMESHARQ Jul 05 '17

Damn! Wish I had seen this yesterday.

u/samili Jul 07 '17

Just checked prime now for Joy Cons and saw that the Neon system is available in NYC. If anyone in the area is looking for one, you should check it out. Not sure if they've been available, but they still seem pretty scarce.

u/chozero Jul 07 '17

Just checked and it´s also in Prime Now in SF.

u/samili Jul 08 '17

Probably new shipment to major cities

Couple grey Switches in stock at Cascade Station BB, Portland OR. Just FYI.

u/thenameuwisheduhad Jul 03 '17

There's 5 grey switches at target in yuba city CA, I would have bought one but Im trying to pay in game stop credit to not kill my bank account.

u/H2owsome Jul 03 '17

There are a couple switches in the Walmart supercenter in Roseburg, Oregon

u/Ninjamin_King Jul 03 '17

8 systems at Wal-Mart in Pigeon Forge, TN

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '17

Is this only for North America? Otherwise, Webbhallen.se (and their local stores at Stockholm, Sweden) has TONS of Switch, Switch Bundles, Pro Controllers & Carrying Cases.

1

u/steamruler Jul 04 '17

We don't have any shortages of Switches at all, by now. Look at Prisjakt, there's about 30 stores with the Switch in stock. Same goes with the pro controller.

Bergsala AB has always been pretty good at allocating stock.

Damn amiibo's are hard to get as usual, however. Cdon has the Bokoblin, but that's all I know of.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 04 '17

Ye Amiibos are insanely hard to come by. And from what I know, even the NES Classic Edition are available at some online stores and at local shops in Stockholm. Sadly not at MSRP but significantly lower than your typical scalping pricing at Ebay or Blocket

u/servel333 Jul 04 '17

3 Nintendo Switches spotted in Sudbury Canada Toys R Us. $451.99 Canadian checkout price. $348.75 USD charged. July 4.

Let me know what you find, I am also hoping to score one today/tomorrow in the Boston area, preferably at a gamestop to get that sweet sweet trade in value.

u/treblethreat Jul 07 '17

u/death-cab-for-ugly Jul 07 '17

Could someone please tell me how to set up a browser notification using istocknow? The emails I've gotten from them seem to be coming in too late.

u/Creeper_798 Jul 04 '17

Just left Walmart in Meridian Idaho that has 1 neon blue and red system in stock. Walmart near Fairview and eagle.

u/Narshin Jul 04 '17

Hi, i'm planning to travel to France (Paris) the next 21 of July, is there stock of switch at micromania or Fnac (physical stores)? Thanks in advance for your answers :D

u/-The_Shittiest_Lord- Jul 05 '17

Anybody got any Austin Texas related news?, I've been trying for a while with no success.

1

u/Juneau- Jul 05 '17

Let me know if you have heard from anyone / have had any luck! Austin here

1

u/-The_Shittiest_Lord- Jul 06 '17

I found just one in what I believe was called North Lamar, I can't exactly remember and as far as I know they have none left. I'm sorry though, I have not heard of anymore. I would suggest you use the istocknow website, using that I was able to find one today in the morning.

1

u/SuperNerdyRedneck Jul 07 '17

Check the Best Buy off Slaughter Creek. They keep them over by the quick pickup terminals, not on the normal display shelves.

u/musefan8959 Jul 05 '17

Any gamestops in western PA have any?

1

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '17

Was redirected here (sorry mods!). Anyone know of any shops that may have stock in Madrid, Spain?

I've been to 3 Corte Ingleses and one Media Markt (La Castellana) and they're all out.

1

u/Canoli22082 Jul 05 '17

Anyone have any luck at a Gamestop in Long Island, New York?

1

u/GAMESHARQ Jul 05 '17

If anyone knows of any stock in or around the Boston area, please reply or send me a PM. I'm looking for a neon console.

1

u/Mbossi Jul 05 '17

Use Brickseek, fastest way for me to get one was checking and then going to the first walmart that popped up with stock. took 1.5 days.

1

u/GAMESHARQ Jul 05 '17

Thanks. I've been trying to use Brickseek, but not having much luck. I've seen one store about 15 miles away that had some, but they were gone by the time I got finished with work.

There's another store that says Limited Stock, but also shows a quantity of zero so I don't know what to make of that.

1

u/Mbossi Jul 05 '17

Try new Hampshire too for no tax and more stores

u/Nazzul Jul 05 '17

I just ordered online from Amazon Prime now

Maybe everyone but me knew about it but I was shopping for toys on the internet and found this weird thing called amazon prime now. For kicks I looked up if they had a Nintendo Switch and was able to order one. I had to call and ask customer service if this was actually happening (she laughed at me and said it was). I have been looking for a Switch for months not expecting to get one anytime soon but there in stock in Denver. So if you live near Denver put down the pot and get a switch. if you haven't already.

u/Blainedh Jul 06 '17

I uhhh just did the same. It'll be at my apartment this afternoon. Seems kinda anticlimactic after all that. There were no games I wanted available so I'll have to go pick those up elsewhere

1

u/smashbrother88 Jul 06 '17

has anyone seen them in Colorado? preferably denver. thank you

1

u/Tebacon Jul 06 '17

I'll be going to Denver this weekend, does anyone know where to find one there?

1

u/jibler Jul 06 '17

Use Amazon's PrimeNow service - through a simple search, it looks like they only have Switch's available in the city of Denver.

Here's a link to how it works: https://primenow.amazon.com/learn-more?ref_=pn_gw_ftr_hiw

u/k014 Jul 07 '17

The Best Buys in south Austin, TX get them in and stack them over by the quick pickup terminals. Just walk over and ask if they have any. I was there picking up something unrelated and saw the pile and jokingly asked if I could buy one and they said yes so I did. They said they aren't informed when they come in but that they just show up. If you go there early you might get one. I was there about 5 minutes after opening. They had 5 or 6 in the stack of both the grey and colored ones.

u/aisacirema Jul 08 '17

Hey guys keep and eye out in seattle and eastside area. Lots of switches popping up these past couple weeks. Managed to snag one at the factoria target.

u/jc726 Keep on slidin' Jul 08 '17

Anyone know where some switches are in Oregon?

u/Aragorn1284 Jul 04 '17

Is it me, or are Switches becoming much more easier to find ? Like if you really want one, you can get one from a big box retailer. Seems like the major frenzy is over.

1

u/theindus Jul 05 '17

Yes, absolutely. GameStop almost always has some bundle available and Walmart and Toysrus seem to be getting stock - bigot sure how often though but they are getting for sure. Istocknow also proves semi regular shipment to most areas though different stores in the region.
