phart010 | 1,708 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I bought a Nintendo Switch for $300 at launch. I thought that it either stays at the launch price point or becomes less expensive as time goes on.. So can someone explain what this means: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,980 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Why sell it for less when people are willing to pay scalpers more? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,691 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 It shows $300 for me on the official Nintendo website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estil | 1,265 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I'm holding out for the Switch Pro...and Nintendo don't give me this corporate crap about "we have no plans for a Switch Pro". You really think I'm gonna fall for that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,014 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) They're $400 here in Canada. I mean that was always the price of them, since launch. Edited May 23, 2020 by Code Monkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also noted this.......the * next to msrp at the bottom says this: Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price, actual price may vary. See retailer for details.

I wonder if this is their way of reluctantly letting people know that this is how much you have to pay right now. Because when you click buy now, it takes you to a page of retailers. But they all say out of stock. So the only way to actually get your hands on one TODAY is eBay or Craigslist, through which you will pay up to $400..

mbd39 | 2,030 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 The prices online are over $400. Maybe you can get it cheaper in actual stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
