Guess this sucks for little Timmy who never played video games before and wants a Switch 2.

This has signs of the classic Nintendo artificially manufactured shortage.

With how badly this thing is going to be scalped making sure people who play Nintendo get their hands on it is fine. I agree sucks for little Timmy, sucks less for little Timmy if they all get bought up by some guy who reposts them on eBay for triple the price.

He will have it by Christmas, maybe even before school starts.

It's such a a shame there's no other way to play such great games as Mario Kart, Breath of the Wild, or Tears of the Kingdom any other way until then.
