Scalpers bought all the Switch 2 units
That's how Nintendo hit those 3.5m sales

One big problem: no one is buying them.

>i-it's SCLAPERS!
all the stores had a 1 per customer policy so the only way that'd happen is if scalpers bought one from each and every store, even then they are already getting restocks.

even if scalpers could buy them nobody is going to buy from the scalpers at the prices they ask for and even then Nintendo would still make money from them buying it to try and scalp in the first place, the scalpers are getting fucked by the restocks which is a good thing because they are roaches.

I checked the BestBuy stock tracker online and their store pick up stock is available in every store within 200kms (the max the tracker can go) of my house.

The story of how insane the switch is selling and everyone wanting one and the material reality of stock, especially compared to other consoles, is just not adding up

Before release we heard there would be about 5 million consoles for sale and then only 3.5 million sold day 1. So there's most likely still a good deal of stock in physical retail stores. Scalpers got fucked, it's great.

so a person spends $500 on a switch 2
Then they sell it for $150 more on ebay
By the time they make the sale, ebay is taking what, ~13% now on every final value, which includes the cost of shipping and taxes?

So by the time you sell it, the buyer is going to be paying at least $12-20+ for shipping.

I can't remember if taxes are included in the fees, if they're not you're paying to ebay 13% of around $670. That's an $87 fee to ebay, you're only clearing about 60-70 bucks per sale in profit. What the fuck is the point of this shit? Why are people scalping something for such little gain? I could understand if the supply was like nothing and they were scalping them for $800+, then at least you're making some money. But why would you scalp on ebay of all places? The fees are just going to destroy you. It only makes sense to do this on facebook marketplace or craigslist LOCALLY and sell them directly to the buyer with cash to avoid all taxes and fees.

Like honestly, not even clearing $100 in PROFIT on each scalped sale when you have to have enough cash to spend THOUSANDS of dollars on buying a bunch of consoles to scalp is pure retardation. Why not just take those thousands of dollars and put it in the S&P 500 instead? At least they would make more money over time doing that.

to play devil's advocate, both of those statements can be true, scalpers have been known to mass buy shit people don't want like with the wii u and end up having to sell at a loss just to recop the money.

that said, in this case scalpers can't do that this time with the amount of stock they made made it essentially impossible and stores limiting 1 per customer.

So I managed to reserve for pickup switch2+mkw bundle, 1 controller and the joycon grip charger (that can be used as controller), and you say scalpers bought all of these switchus? Yeah right, I think what happen is nintendo gave stores some "pre-order" stock, then later told "this one's only for pickup" 1-2 days before launch. The "only for pick" stock was multiple times larger stock than whatever was available for pre-order. Was it a trick? Kinda, yes, but ton of people were able to buy Switch 2 during the 2-3 days it was available, and they're probably going to restock more of it soon.

it also helped that Nintendo stockpiled alot of consoles ahead of time because they knew it was going to be in high demand, they have been doing the same thing with pokemon cards as well (though it's a hell of alot cheaper to over produce pokemon cards)

to some extent that is true but on the other hand that can easily back fire if the competition has stock people will just buy what the other guy is selling that's actually available so in the long run it just isn't worth not having enough stock to stay competitive, the ps5 did limit 1 per customer same with xbox series X/S for what that's worth when they first launched.

All artificial scarcity does it turn off customers in the long run.

Nintendo made enough stock to actually meet demand.

This hasn't been the meta for some time. Literally all throughout Nintendo's history they've done gangbusters doing the exact opposite (Pokemon, NES). In the age of social media you want scarcity and people clawing at each other to get it. Nintendo wanted it both ways, and word of mouth about the overstock is catching up to them.

It's just desperate losers who cling onto whatever they can find to have a "win" in their otherwise meaningless life. It's like the "turn customers into fanatics" but for the opposite reason, not to promote a product, but make it fail.
If they'd at least try to justify their obsession with any sort of logical reason, say the console failing would show that people at large don't want to pay $80 for games I could at least understand it.
