GameStop has announced today that the super hard to find Nintendo Switch system is back in stock at the North American retailer. The stock replenish comes just in time for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe which launches this Friday. Again, this is in-store only and units won’t be available online according to Polygon. Best to ring your local store before venturing out as no doubt these will be snapped up quickly.
The Switch is $299.99. GameStop is offering a $200 credit toward one with the trade-in of a 32 GB Wii U, PlayStation 4, Xbox One or Nintendo 3DS. The trade-in offer is good through Sunday, April 30.
I advise everyone looking for a switch to check their local gamestop. It’s still a hit or miss in my area on switch availability. Not to mention there’s that whole $500 switch package gamestop was pushing at one time. I was told it was strictly an online package but you still should make sure they aren’t gonna force a $500 package down your throat.
Must be quite the package for $500… some might want that down their throat. Especially if it’s reciprocal
Oh my…
You know, N8, Next I’ll have to hear from The Commander again “All of human culture is below the belt” and I won’t be able to tease Nintenmau5 with innuendo again…
maybe he is right

What are you saying? He’s always right… uhh… if he’s a he…
I guess i am just thinking below the belt again… stupid human I am
That’s how much the bundle cost
$200 for a Wii U? That actually sounds good. Or am I mistaken?
That’s what it sounds like to me… That’d be like 2/3 of the sales price back.
I can’t believe it’s that much. Like since when does GameStop give so much for a trade-in haha?
I didn’t even read that…. that is crazy. That is almost tempting, but I really love my Wii U!!!
If it wasn’t for my virtual console games and digital games, I would totally take this deal.
I get that.. Got Hyrule and Splatoon digital and COD Ghosts with local multiplayer via TV and Gamepad is pretty great. Can’t do it.
If only we could transfer our games over. Oh well.
Or at least the purchases so if the same games are released on Switch we wouldn’t have to buy them aga… wait… Mario Kart 8 Deluxe… We’re doomed. :p
Nooooo!
Yeah, I’ll just keep mine. Was contemplating a second for a while… going to get two Switches in the fall. (if i can get my hands on them)
The Gamecube sold 21 million units. Wii U 13 million. It’s going to become a collectors item with how few were produced in comparison. I suggest you hold on to your Wii U’s.
I gave my brother the Windwaker Special Edition Wii U, Sub-Commander. HIS will be exceedingly collectable.
Good thing that I got mine a few weeks ago.
Basically. Looks like the Wii U lost the sells
200 credit for the Nintendo 3DS? That’s amazing.
there’s no way gamestop is taking 200 dollars for any 3ds. even 200 for the wiiu is hard to believe.
Good thing that I got mine a few weeks ago.
