Hi
We had heard from a few friends and contacts that Nintendo Switch consoles are proving hard to get hold of at the moment - I guess they are an obvious thing to get to help entertain yourself during the lockdown (fi you have the cash, and aren't desperately trying to homeschool two kids while doing your job.... just for instance!)
From a search around online this morning, I can hardly see any available at all, certainly not at well-known retailers, or those with deals posted on here before now. So I was wondering if anyone else had been able to find one, and thought maybe we could share some intel for those who are looking to buy one to fill their time!
Found some news coverage of versions of the console selling out in US and Japan, but none here yet:

sorted byAnnoyingly all the bundles have been removed from the site though
CEX can be very hit and miss, I would definitely not buy from them
I'd have to disagree, but also point out it's all down to preference. We have 3 Nintendo Switch consoles in the house and I much prefer playing on my Nintendo Switch Lite than I do on the lads' fatter Switch consoles.
It's easier on my hands and much lighter.
It was from a 3rd party seller, not Game - which I think is important to mention. Could possibly be a case of price gouging, but could also be a temporary filler price due to stock shortages. I'm sure if somebody purchased at £999, the seller would find one to send
I guess they hadn't planned for a global pandemic.
The Animal Crossing Special Edition Switch £319
Crawly Extra: 2
Chichester Extra: 2
Purley Extra: 2
If you're after places near you, ask away with a location.
Currys clearance are selling the Nintendo switch on eBay for £195.30 WTF!!! Managed to get one but they are going quick.
Edit: sold out in 5 mins but worth checking back (edited)
I know there have been better deals out there but best I could find without leaving the house!
I think the pressure is on the normal nintendo switch, there is still stock around on the lite one Marisa so your order should be fine.
Jacked up but it's something
That's the 3rd party market, it shows as their stock when it's really not, makes it seem like they are selling it, not a good sight in general though
Nope, you can pay by Visa or Mastercard, but that adds £4.99 for delivery

Jesus i'll sell mine for that price
Thanks so much, ordered - good price too and free 1st class delivery!

I'm afraid not. The closest store that even shows any stock is Batley Extra, 22 miles away. All other stores have sold out. Batley has 1 in stock.
Thanks again!
Any Animal Crossing Switch edition in the area of Barnsley / Rotherham? (edited)
You absolute legend, thanks so much!
Sorry 0
The closest store showing any stock from Bedford is Stevenage with 4 in stock.
The AC one
0 in stock.
Royston 1 and that's the only store in the areas that has any of the Grey Main switches.
(Edit: Also the Neon Switch on it’s own depending where you are) (edited)
shows as unavailible when i sign in
So I walked in, asked for a switch lite and the game. Got it for £199 and left.
I already have 3 switches so won't need this Yellow one. I'll be selling this off on Facebook but I won't link it here as its probably against the rules. What's more important to add is on the display the Out Of Stock labels were out, so to anyone else they wouldn't had even asked for the console I got.
My point is, all these consoles are widely available in Tesco Extra stores so please please do not pay the disgusting prices that are found on Ebay and Amazon currently.
