Nintendo Switch OLED Pre-Order Stores in the United States

Pre-order Walmart Nintendo Switch OLED

Walmart actually has the Nintendo Switch OLED in stock (at the time of publishing this story) in the harder-to-find white model. He claims the delivery date is October 9, which is one day after Nintendo Switch's actual OLED release date of Friday, October 8. If I agree with you, this is our top pick for Switch OLED pre-orders (mostly because it's in stock in Nintendo's new flagship color), though we know from the many PS5 restock events that Walmart sometimes ( read: often) delays shipments without notice. . It's unclear when Walmart will have more consoles, whether you're hoping for the Neon color or if the Switch OLED white is out of stock by the time you check out. But our Twitter tracker will keep you posted anyway.

Amazon Nintendo Switch OLED Pre-order

The Amazon Nintendo Switch pre-order began a day after other retailers in the United States, beginning mid-afternoon on Friday, July 16. However, some people were able to easily buy the console using this hack: Go to Amazon's product page for the Nintendo Switch OLED in any color and try hitting "Add to List" instead. To select "Add to Cart" which everyone does. . From there, select "Show List" and if it's available, it'll be easier for you to check it that way. The theory is that it's easier to try to add it to your cart via the "View Listing" page on Amazon due to the fact that the normal Amazon product page is getting hit with traffic. Of course, this tactic doesn't work when Amazon Nintendo Switch pre-orders are sold out, which is currently the case.

Nintendo Switch OLED Pre-Order at Best Buy

Best Buy pre-ordered the OLED model of the Nintendo Switch on day one, but it sold out quickly, and the mentioned ZIP codes in the United States were out of inventory when the Add to Cart button popped up. People have found it much harder to buy the white OLED switch and easier to buy the neon OLED switch. Matt Swider pre-ordered the Nintendo Switch OLED live stream and a subscriber survey showed 80% were more interested in the white version, so it's no surprise. The Best Buy Switch OLED pre-order on Thursday was followed by some brief pre-orders on Friday, July 16. We'll see if the OLED model returns to stock this weekend, including Saturday, July 17, and send out a Twitter alert if it does.

Targeting Nintendo Switch's OLED Pre-Order

The Target Nintendo Switch OLED pre-order was perhaps the easiest to get your hands on on the official pre-order day of Thursday, July 15, and unlike other console restocks taking place online at the US retailer ., These Switch OLED model pre-orders will be shipped to your home. PS5 and Xbox Series X restocks must be picked up at local stores, and that's been the case throughout 2021. While Target has sold out of both Switch OLED consoles, first the white one and the Neon version soon after, we are tracking both colors in case one becomes available again. It's also possible that if the OLED Nintendo Switch proves popular, the retailer could switch to a store pickup process to reduce resellers, which is exactly what Target is doing with other consoles from Sony and Microsoft.

GameStop Nintendo Switch OLED Reserve

The GameStop Nintendo Switch OLED pre-order went two ways, and it's completely different from any other retailer in the US: You can secure the console online via their website or pre-order in stores. As we struggled to click the Add to Cart button, despite being a PowerUp Rewards member (and ultimately purchasing Target's OLED White Switch), many people reported to Matt Swider that they "just went to their local GameStop and ordered the Nintendo Switch OLED. console without having to manage the online interface. It's unclear when, what date, and what time GameStop pre-orders will end in stores (this may have already happened by the time you read this, though we'll update you if we do). So it's best to call your local store before venturing out to pre-order the Nintendo Switch which isn't actually possible.

Nintendo Switch OLED pre-order is easy to get, for now

The fact that the Nintendo Switch OLED pre-order at some retailers like Walmart is still easy to buy is not a sign of things to come for the console. Yes, this is a minor update and not the "Nintendo Switch Pro" rumored to be out in the first half of 2021 - no Nintendo Switch 4K coming. But don't be fooled into thinking this Switch OLED model will be readily available after launch day. When the Nintendo Switch OLED release date of October 8 rolls around, we'll be in a much different situation. We'll be just over a month away from Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday, and it's unclear when the current semiconductor shortage will end. The chip shortage could affect us until mid-2022 before things return to normal, according to analysts surveyed by LaComparacion. Also, don't forget that the original Nintendo Switch model, which was quite old last Christmas, sold out for four consecutive Christmases. So if you think the Nintendo Switch - priced at just €349 for parents wanting a new gift for their children in late 2021 - won't sell out, you should think again.

Nintendo Switch Pre-Order Price

The price of the Nintendo Switch OLED is not a barrier to entry. It costs just $349, a $50 price increase over the original console, and all retailers are currently selling the new Nintendo console at MSRP. None of the US stores forced you to buy bundles, though we did see Metroid Dread shipped with the console in the US, but it wasn't required, it was just an add-on option. We'll see if this unplanned trend continues over the holidays, but retailers in the US like GameStop and Antonline do it regularly to not only boost their profits (console purchases actually make very little money for retailers), but also to reduce demand. and resellers. -It's harder for a reseller to find someone who buys a sold out console everywhere if he also needs to buy an available game and wants to or not.
