re: Why can't Nintendo just make an appropriate amount of consoles at launch?

The Switch is selling at the same pace as the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 at launch, so this manufactured supply conspiracy has no legs at all.

Their capacity was set for 8m consoles sold/year. That's less than half of PS4 and far less than X1.

Nintendo said they're going to double production to 16m/year, and we'll see how it sells once they can get that higher volume in retail channels.

The initial rush is over, Switches will be easy to find in stores from now on.

LINK?

As in, do you have a link to the abundance in stores?

Because the three targets I went to today sold out before the store was open. They have lines on Mondays and Wednesdays at the door waiting for the trucks.

Gamestop is hoarding there's into some bullshite bundle that's making me wish the company would go bankrupt.

Best buy is the most unhelpful electronic store ever

Walmart is sold out as well

So I played 2 hours of Zelda and have 45% left with a low brightness setting and airplane mode on. I was traveling yesterday. I played for a while with the brightness really high

That seems to be a big thing. Dim the screen and put it on airplane mode and zelda is definitely a 4 hour game before the battery says goodnight
