GameStop: Nintendo Switch is ‘Strongest Console Launch in Years’
GameStop Senior Director of Merchandising, Eric Bright, shared his take on the Nintendo Switch launch with Game Rant, revealing how much demand there has been for the console. Bright said:
Those who have been unsuccessful at finding a Nintendo Switch in their area, or who were unable to preorder one, have had to resort to eBay and other online resale sites to find the new Nintendo console. As expected, the price for the Nintendo Switch on such sites is more than double what the console costs in retail stores.
Fortunately, as Bright confirmed, the retailer should have more of the impressive Switch console in stock soon. That said, it may be two or three weeks before some retailers once again have the Nintendo Switch in stock.
If the current demand for the Nintendo Switch continues, there shouldn’t be any trouble for Nintendo reaching its expected two million console sales in the first month. At the same time, it’s important to wait until the dust has settled before truly taking stock of the release – to see how hard to find the console is later this month, for example.

Rodgers96Nicholas Strongest console released in years? I'm pretty sure the xbox one and the Ps4 have outmatched this console by far.
If you read the article it clearly says the strongest release for THE COMPANY, not the industry.

PotionPoyumaZTG I bought one just do I could sell it for double the price on ebay.
You are the worst kind of person
Joke is on him though as they are only going for about $100 over retail.
Not even, I bought one for $380, with free shipping.

Gamestop gotta step up their game for real, I called every gamestop around my city and they were ''Sold out'' of Nintendo switch's, they had only pre-order consoles. I drove by Bestbuys around 11:40pm and the line was from the parking lot to the door and I was still able to buy a nintendo switch..they had flat bed carts stacked with nintendo switch's.
I've never owned a nintendo ds,3ds,wii,wii u.. but now im super hooked on the nintendo switch and zelda game , I can't put it down.
